TIME TO FORGIVE???

The Donald strikes again. (Photo: MSNBC)

The fallout from the recent Trump video from Access Hollywood nearly a decade ago continues. There has been a defection of sorts by traditional Republicans who are distancing themselves from these comments about women. The GOP needs help in courting the votes of college educated women in this cycle. (Mitt Romney carried that group of white educated women in 2012 and it is doubtful that a mass vote of white males will make up that difference). This video though was more than locker room admiration and adolescent wishing and hoping. This was Trump actually explaining to Billy Bush what in fact his “game” was. Not strategy on how to get a date but in effect announcing over  a live mike so he could articulate his game plan to have sex with a woman. I would chalk that up to an insecure bully trying to ingratiate himself with the “gossip media”.  But then you heard him take out the Tic Tacs in preparation for the anticipated move he said he had made in the past.
That’s not strategy, that’s motive.
Last night Trump defenders took to the Cable News Networks to go on the defense. But one of Trump’s nemeses since he began his race, Anna Navarro really took down Scott Nell Hughes in this exchange. 

This morning many Evangelical leaders came to Trump’s defense and said that American Christians are a forgiving lot. It was suggested that the people who voted for Trump in the primary would forgive.
Maybe.
Forgiveness is one thing, forgetting is quite another.

NIXON AGAIN

Richard Nixon the 37th President of the United States has been dead since 1994. You could not write the political history of the political history of the middle 20th century without Nixon. He ran in 5 national elections, 2 for Vice President and 3 for President. He was the first American President ever to resign.
Now even after his death, Nixon re-emerges in this election. He is featured in an anti Hillary ad sponsored by supporters of Donald Trump. Even Clinton’s tenure on the committee to impeach him in 1974 has been brought up.
Last night his Presidency was invoked when commentators were speaking of how Nixon respected opinions of people in his own party when those members like Pennsylvania’s own like Hugh Scott went to implore him to resign when Watergate got un-survivable for him. Nixon in his political life was just as polarizing (if not more) than both Trump and Clinton. It is ironic and yet somewhat fitting that his memory still lives on (for better or worse) in this upside down year.

MEDIA MATTERS

WILK ON STAGE THURSDAY NIGHT

Nancy Kman, Webster, Sue Henry, Corbett and Tarone. (WILK website).

So this Thursday October 13th from 6 to 8PM the WILK Talkers take the stage at the Kirby Center in Wilkes Barre. The main topic will of course be the Presidential Election.
The big four, Nancy Kman, John Webster, Steve Corbett and L.A. Tarone will be there in person. The voices behind the microphones! I’m sure there will be many faces behind the phone lines showing up too which may or may not be a reason for anyone interested to attend.
Either way, the event is FREE and I’m sure will be quite entertaining.

THERESA CAPUTO $$$$$$

Theresa Caputo has made her living being a medium. These are people who claim to speak to the dead. My wife loves her show but I think she and her family are nothing more than a bunch of loud mouth New Yorkers who bring no redeeming value to television and let alone society.
Personally I do not believe in séances and talking to the dead. I don’t believe my deceased family members are sending me messages from the great beyond. I don’t believe any of that.
I hope there is an afterlife.
I do believe that the human spirit of the deceased lives on in all of us if we are wise enough to capture it. I believe we are guided by the example they left us in the way they lived their lives. But I think it is ridiculous that we are being spoken to through a blond loudmouth whose only gift seems to be for fooling people.

Theresa Caputo is the new Susan Powter. Yeah anyone remember her?
All that stated, I was glad when I read a take on Theresa Caputo’s show at the Kirby the other night from a Facebook Friend. I asked Joseph Schillaci if I can post his thoughts from his Facebook page on The Long Island Medium.
Last night I had an experience I will never forget. I was at the Kirby Center for a show with Theresa Caputo. many of you might recognize her name. She claims to be a medium that talks to the dead. OMG nothing can be farther from the truth. From the time she appeared on stage I had bad feeling about her. $2000.00 dress, $1000.00 shoes, fake white nails that looked like tiger paws and an intro similar to a stand up comedian.
As for her psychic powers, I have more. She addresses the audience like so " has anyone lost a husband, and she gts a response , has anyone lost a child, another response, has anyone lost a father or mother, and low and behold more responses. WHAT ARE THE CHANCES OF THAT !!!!!!!!!!!
I cannot go through the entire bull sh-- production but let me give you a few things that made me laugh out loud.
She tells one woman her dad wants her to know he appreciated her fixing his hair while he laid in bed dying, the woman responds " my dad was bald " Caputo then says " he wants to thank you for holding his hand " again I laughed out loud. What are the chances of a daughter holding her fathers dying hand in the hospital, WOW how did she know that ????
She is a fraud, and I spent $300 for two 4th row seats to get entertained by a blond bimbo comedian/ proclaimed psychic. To all who are considering going to see her, save your money and talk to your lost loved ones directly.
