The Cubby's last World Series win was in 1908. Their last penant was in 1945. But despite this long stretch of futility, they have always been beloved by Chicagoans. It's really hard to get a ticket to Wrigley Field no matter how bad they are. Meanwhile, the cross-town White Sox won the WS in 2005,...

Point of order: if the Chicago Cubs win the World Series, then the entire fabric of the Universe will be thrown into random chaos. 1+1 may no longer equal 2. Gravity may no longer apply. In such an alternate Universe, Trump would win the election. You have all been warned. What if the Cubs play Cle...

Pick your favorite October surprise that will end the candidacy of Hillary Clinton as is now being touted by the alt-right: . . . WikiLeaks release of a Podesta email that implicates Clinton associates in the assassination of Justice Scalia . . . That would be the likliest, checking in at 0.0000000...

Hmmm info dumped by Wikileaks this morning appeared on Russian state controlled media BEFORE it appeared on Wikileaks . . . Trump misquotes Newsweek article in precisely the same way that Russian media misquoted it . . . Trump consultant Roger Stone referenced (via twitter) a particular hacked emai...

So far, Bill Clinton is still in the lead. Unless Trump spilled his genetic material on the presidential seal of the carpet in the Oval Office. Or he found new uses for cigars and teenage interns. And Melania left horse heads in the bed of said intern. And Bill would be leading by 30 points over Do...

For or Against Trump, GOP Fears Intensifying Civil War If He Loses http://www.bloomberg.com/politics/articles/2016-10-12/for-trump-or-against-trump-republicans-fear-intensifying-civil-war-if-he-loses Charlie Sykes, a Wisconsin-based conservative radio host and Trump critic, was pessimistic.

In a little over 40 years we've gone from running liars out of the white house to electing an even worse liar, one protected and enabled by the msm and the FBI. Good times indeed. Ironically, the liar we ran out 42 years ago ran for President in 1968 by touting a "Law & Order" agenda,...

RCP says the PAH has 260 electoral votes, with 9 toss up states. This means Trump has to win all 9 of the toss up states to win. Game over. Now the big question is what will become of the Republican Party after the election. It is quite a spectacle seeing a major political party whose leaders despi...

No, Billy Graham's magazine does.

I thought BG was dead, silly me.

(Christianity Today) Speak Truth to Trump
Evangelicals, of all people, should not be silent about Donald Trump's blatant immorality.

Other evangelical publications are following suit.

Vocal Harmony - white folks developed it into Babershop Quartets, while black folks developed it into Doo Wop, which fed into R&B and Rock & Roll.
