The reason why we have two ears and only one mouth is that
we may listen the more and talk the less.

We already have heard Trump cultists like Palin attack Paul Ryan's measured embrace of Trump, threatening to primary him. Now Cruz, Kasich.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
Never mind that fact that Cruz and Kasich beat the shit out of Trump in their home states (and Trump lost Wisconsin, too).— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
This petty vengeful bullshit by Trump, going after Cruz' father and others, even after he was officially nominated, has debased the office.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
Trump is so immoral and unacceptable I am seriously considering a protest vote for Clinton against Trump. Talk about holding one's nose.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
I read that Trump's speech was little more than fearmongering on steroids. Rather dark, desperate and pathetic; it's manipulative nonsense.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
Trump: the lawlessness and order others around candidate.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
I see that Clinton did pick Sen. Kaine (VA) as her running mate.. Kaine is a solid pick, with experience as mayor, governor and US Senator.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
#SeriouslyIts2016Why are America's most viable choices for President Clinton and Trump?— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
#SeriouslyIts2016Why do you still have Americans promoting socialism, despite the overwhelming and ongoing failures of socialist regimes?— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016

Lawsuit Says that a rape victim was victimized twice, including Texas imprisoning her to force her to testify: what was her crime?— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
Texas jails a rape victim so she'll testify, but Donald Trump, with megalomaniac delusions, walks free.Weekly Standard is right: Trump crazy— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
I have zero tolerance for Trump's idiocy on Papa Cruz. Promoting this smear is totally political on Trump's part. Trump has written for NE.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
OMG, Mark Levine is spot on. The GOP attacks on Kaine are leftist in nature, an absurd transparent Trumpian conquer-and-divide strategy.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
It's embarrassing. The RNC is now demonizing free trade and fast-track trade authority, which has been party orthodoxy for decades.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
I've been arguing that Clinton's smartest move would be to pivot to the center. Tim Kaine is the closest thing to a centrist Democrat.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
In the battle of running mate picks, Clinton beats Trump, not even close. Pence is an unpopular governor with little in common with Trump.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
The RNC is proving to be as stupid as Trump's amateurish politics. A party that calls itself pro-life attacks Kaine for being pro-life.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
There has never been a politician more deserving as getting his ass kicked publicly than Donald Trump. Trump's pettiness is disqualifying.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
The Trump virus must be contained. The Vichy Republicans must be purged after Trump is demolished in November. It's like 2010 never happened— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
When Trump gets his ass kicked in November, it won't be Cruz', Kasich's, Bush's or anyone else's fault other than Orange Fascist's toxicity.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
Clinton has been beating Trump one-on-one consistently over the past year of polling. Trump talks unity, but then he attacks Cruz' family.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
I think Trump got the idea of attacking families from the Mafia. First, he wants to target the families of terror suspects; then Bush, Cruz.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
The Trump virus is spreading. David Duke has decided to run for retiring David Vitter's open Senate seat. Can nothing stop cockroaches?— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
As Cruz plans for a 2020 candidacy, lessons learned: he needs to adapt a more Reaganesque happy warrior persona, less strident, more liberty— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
Cruz in 2020 needs to be more skeptical on foreign intervention,more free market on trade and immigrants.He has to be able to work with Dems— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
We need to see less fearmongering in politics; Trump lives on hate. It would help Clinton to deflect Trump's nastiness with grace.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
To his credit, Priebus has forcefully made it clear if somehow LA voters nominate Duke, the party will not support him. What will Trump do?— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
To his credit, Priebus has forcefully made it clear if somehow LA voters nominate Duke, the party will not support him. What will Trump do?— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
Duke claims an academic PhD; MAUP, a reputed anti-Semitic Ukraine institute, stripped of accreditation, is considered to be a diploma mill.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
Expect David Duke to attack Priebus as part of "the Establishment". And I guarantee Trump, who pretended not to know Duke earlier, gets ?s.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
Expect evasion from Trump on the Duke kerfuffle.He doesn't want to alienate those alt-right supporters.Trump will point out Ivanka is a Jew.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
This is Soft Rock America. Trump needs to be disabused of the notion that #NeverTrump is done: https://t.co/s8a9SlZhxe— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 24, 2016
@DineshDSouza @realDonaldTrump You mean that the Orange Fascist is as committed to Big Government and State authority as Clinton? IDIOT!— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016
Image of the Day@realDonaldTrump The idea that an economic illiterate like you can do something isn't even funny, Orange Fascist.More like global depression— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 23, 2016

Actually, GOP.com has a clip identifying Kaine as pro-life. What Kaine says is that he won't let his personal beliefs interfere with his legal responsibilities. (Obviouly I believe in equal protection of life under the law.) I think the GOP for some reason is trying to stir the pot of radical Dem feminists.

Michael Jackson, "Smooth Criminal". Jackson's final Top 10 off "Bad". He would then take a 3-year hiatus from the Top 10 until the release of his final major album, "Dangerous". For the most part, most artists maybe charted up to 3 or 4 singles per album. During his prime, Jackson nearly doubled that, making his releases de facto greatest hit compilations. However, after a red-hot 80's, Jackson's popularity was less dominant; he would chart only 2 more #1's, including his lead single off "Dangerous" and only 2 more Top 10's after 1995 until/after his untimely passing in 2009.
