WELCOME! Good to have you here.


You have power. Use it wisely. Make it matter.

At Lucy Left you're encouraged to leave comments, keeping this request in mind: Say what you mean and mean what you say, just don't say it mean. Lucy's not a fan of vitriol. This is a place to find information and opinion, a place to have a laugh now and then and to feel less alone in the political madness.

Be well, speak up for what is right and true (even if your voice shakes), and come back soon!

It's Thursday!

That means the red car is in Cleveland!

 

Never thought I'd need to know where Fox Noise is on my telly.  Hope it's included in basic cable.  If not, I'll watch it online.  Big night.  First debate for Republican candidates.  Sure is  early for all this hoopla, don't you think?  Who'd have believed Donald Trump would be in the running—and leading the pack?  For damn sure I didn't.  One of the few political delights in the recent past has been watching Trump create controversy with his outrageous comments, most of which have no basis in fact or truth and no substance whatsoever.  It's not the comments themselves that have been my primary source of Trump-sponsored laughfests—but the fun comes from watching the other candidates (16 now or 17, is it?) scrambling to do something even more outrageous than the fellow who's way ahead of them.  To trump Trump, so to speak.  That way, they can hope to get a few minutes of air/talk/Twitter time.

I have a feeling (as do a couple of talking heads I heard earlier) that Mr. Trump will be on good behavior tonight.  And we will be a little disappointed, won't we?  Yeah, a little.  However it goes, I'm sure Fox's ratings will be higher than ever after tonight.  Surely do hate to add my viewing to their bonanza.   But I won't worry about that right now.  The task at hand is to chill a couple of brews and try not to dip into the popcorn too early.
