And I think ThatOtherSkunk would be amused. In mathyspeak and Colberet I think is a man after Pa's heart (and eyes and ears) X=Clinton Y=Drumpf (As in WhyDidHeGetThere) So then NP= X- Y but when X+Y=NP*(SigheWhereScrewed) that's basically time to move to Canada, or England Or There's also a movement affoot: Don'TVoteAtAll. and WriteInDrax (From GuardiansOfTheGalaxy) Anyway Great segment Hope you All enJoy ============================================================ FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College to unsubscribe http://redfish.com/mailman/listinfo/friam_redfish.com |
The problem with the piece is that it's treats Trump and Clinton as equally bad. That's false symmetry. On Sat, Jul 30, 2016 at 3:39 PM Gillian Densmore <[hidden email]> wrote:

Au contraire! There is an *implication* of that, but in fact, the rhetoric used is all spot on... it is a piece NOT about the candidates, but about the voters reaction to them. I didn't cross check his stats saying 52% of Trumpsters were voting against HIllary and 56% of HIllary's voting against the Donald, but it IS conceivable if the poll were worded just right to get those numbers. Is it too late for Stephen Colbert to name Tina Fey as a running mate and get on the Independent ticket? I believe that even the hard-core bigots voting for Trump would go for Colbert, mistaking him for his character Colbert who is the cousin of this new Colbert (and Tina Fey for Sarah "I can see Russia" Palin)... And most, if not all of the Democrats would realize the joke of it all and pile on just for the fun of it. Of course die hard HIllary fans would still vote for her, you have to admire their loyalty. Colbert and Fey would probably take JIll Stein, Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren on as inner circle advisors (for all that hard stuff he isn't actually a lot more prepared for than Drumpf)... They might even pull in Al Franken for comic relief. Tina could probably get Putin wrapped around her finger with a good flirt (in Palin persona of course)... So then, even if we were the laughing stock of the world, at least it would be with intention, and we probably wouldn't start WWIII over a pissing contest! Instead, I'm pretty confident Hillary will prevail and while she won't crash the country at first opportunity, but we will have missed a chance at seriously changing the way our elections (and presidential tenures) play out... - Steve Colbert/Fey 2016!
