    Kamala’s Katrina moment? Fed response to hurricane, port strike unsettles Dems before VP debate

    President Biden spent the weekend on the beach in Delaware and Harris was fundraising in California.

    • Professor Hale says:

      It’ll be fine. With CNN, MSNBC, CBS, ABC, and the rest covering for them, the public will never know about this. “Katrina moments” are only for Republicans.

    Pretty sure that’s not the reason for which FEMA was created.

    The Democrats are paying little attention to Buncombe County, N.C., where 35 of North Carolina’s 47 dead thus far from the monster storm were from. Roughly 59.7% of Buncombe County residents voted for the same president who now prefers the beach to helping his voters who are struggling to find food.”

    He’s checked out, Jack.

    My thanks to our distinguished host, who when he saw that I was out of sparktricity due to the remnants of Hurricane Helene, jumped right in and kept my poor site running. Mr Teach is a good friend to have.

  5. drowningpuppies says:

    Nice country you got there.

    The union boss, ILA president Harold Daggett, warned in a video that, “I’ll cripple you. I will cripple you and you have no idea what that means.” He said, “Everybody’s hating the longshoremen now because now they realize how important our jobs are.”

    If that sounds like mafia talk, there might be a reason for that. In 2005, Daggett legally fought off allegations that he’s part of the Genovese crime family.

    • Professor Hale says:

      Everybody’s hating the longshoremen now because now they realize how important our jobs are.”

      Important but also easily replaced by robots or immigrants who are already in the USA and who will work for half what the ILA gets and be happy to get it. They are overpriced and obsolete. They don’t have nearly the bargaining power they thought they had. If they push this too far, their union will be broken.

  6. Elwood P. Dowd says:

    I was worried for you too, Mr Dana, being as how you live in the newly created Hurricane Zone. I saw where Lexington took a hit.

    I even asked after the volatile Mr LGB.

    Hey, does anyone recognize the long gun the model is holding in today’s girlie pic? Thanx.

    • Dana says:

      I was out of sparktricity from 7:48 AM on Friday, until 3:30 PM yesterday. But, thanks to our preparations, installing a propane range, water heater, and fireplace, during our 2018 remodel, we could cook, and shower, and, had this happened in January, been warm as well. Damage here was primarily tree limbs and power poles.

      My daughter’s home in Lexington was out of power for almost no time, though parts of the city lost electricity for a couple of day.

      I was reduced to playing Thomas Jefferson, writing by oil lamp light. Fossil fuels to the rescue!

    JD Vance: Donald Trump saved Obamacare!!

  8. Elwood P. Dowd says:

    Governor Walz: “Did he (Trump) lose the 2020 election?”

    J.D.: “Tim, I’m focused on the future.”

    Governor Walz: “That is a damning non-answer. I’m pretty shocked by this. He lost the election. This is not a debate, it’s not anything anywhere other than in Donald Trump’s world.”

    _______________________

    J.D. Vance was his slick, smarmy, lying self, but avoided saying the krazy things he’s famous for. For sure, he was much better on the debate stage than Trump was.

    • CarolAnn says:

      Mephisto Walz allegedly said that he’s befriended school shooters? Tampon Timmy looks like Uncle Fester and all they needed was to jam a lightbulb in his mouth. But if we can’t rely on the patriotism of a guy who visited Communist China more than Biden has the storm damage who can we rely on?

      Even with both “moderators” pimping for Timmy Vance wiped the floor with him.

  9. drowningpuppies says:

    Tampon Tiananmen Timmy said he “misspoke”. https://www.thepiratescove.us/wp-content/plugins/wp-monalisa/icons/wpml_scratch.gif
    He fucking lied. https://www.thepiratescove.us/wp-content/plugins/wp-monalisa/icons/wpml_bye.gif

  10. drowningpuppies says:

    Gov. Tim Walz may not have been in Tiananmen Square, but tonight he got hit by a tank.
    Walz lost on issues, to which the Harris-Walz campaign has a congenital allergy, he lost on style, defaulting to word salads about being a regular guy from a small town whenever a question (like lying about Tiananmen Square when he was befriending members of China’s Bureau of Foreign Affairs) made him uncomfortable, but he lost on television.

    Kamala had gotten rid of one confused old white man only to replace him with another.

    Chris Kratzer – 2022

    What the hell did you expect me to do?

    You told me to love my neighbors, to model the life of Jesus. To be kind and considerate, and to stand up for the bullied.

    You told me to love people, consider others as more important than myself. “Red and yellow, black and white, they are precious in His sight.” We sang it together, pressing the volume pedal and leaning our hearts into the chorus.

    You told me to love my enemies, to even do good to those who wish for bad things. You told me to never “hate” anyone and to always find ways to encourage people.

    You told me it’s better to give than receive, to be last instead of first. You told me that money doesn’t bring happiness and can even lead to evil, but taking care of the needs of others brings great joy and life to the soul.

    You told me that Jesus looks at what I do for the least-of-these as the true depth of my faith. You told me to focus on my own sin instead of trying to police it in others. You told me to be accepting and forgiving.

    I paid attention.

    I took every lesson.

    And I did what you told me.

    But now, you call me a libtard. A queer-lover.

    You call me “woke.” A backslider.

    You call me a heretic. A child of the devil.

    You call me a false prophet. A reprobate leading people to gates of hell.

    You call me soft. A snowflake. A socialist.

    What the hell did you expect me to do?

    You passed out the “WWJD” bracelets.

    I took it to heart.

    I thought you were serious, apparently not.

    We were once friends. But now, the lines have been drawn. You hate nearly all the people I love. You stand against nearly all the things I stand for. I’m trying to see a way forward, but it’s hard when I survey all the hurt, harm, and darkness that comes in the wake of your beliefs and presence.

    What the hell did you expect me to do?

    I believed it all the way.

    I’m still believing it all the way.

    Which leaves me wondering, what happened to you?

    Grace is brave. Be brave.

    The Conservative Evangelical movement is harming America AND Christianity. What happened to you?

    Keep your beliefs. Lose your hate.

    • L'Roy White says:

      I see you found another fallen Christian to commiserate with. Good for you since misery loves company and this commie sounds as miserable as you do. More excuses for people who won’t carry the burden of being a Christian. You all seek each other out.

      I love when he writes: ” but it’s hard when I survey all the hurt, harm, and darkness that comes in the wake of your beliefs and presence.” He should read some of the hurtful shit you spout out here. You’re not just fallen Christians you’ve become anti Christians. No different than anti Semites with a different target.

      • Elwood P. Dowd says:

        Mr White,

        You are partly right. I have become anti-far-right Evangelical Christian. If you condemn and hate gays, trans, immigrants, atheists, Muslims, Hindus, foreigners etc, yes, I oppose your efforts. After all, we hate the sin, not the sinner.

        The bigger problem is that the far-right political movement has taken over the far-right Evangelical Christian movement. It’s an exclusive movement, promoting caucasian, conservative, christian, hetersexual support only.

        Most of my beloved friends and family are Christians and Jews with some atheists, agnostics. But none voice their hatred of gays, trans, lesbians, Blacks, Muslims, foreigners etc.

        Do you believe in the Rapture or 2nd Coming when all “good” Christians go to heaven, but one’s less-than-good wife, parents, children, dear friends are abandoned on Earth?

  12. Elwood P. Dowd says:

    Conservative Evangelical Christianity (CEC) falls in line with the better-than-you, white, christian, straight ideology of MAGAtism. You’re being used. Sure, it’s a sugar high, but WWJD?

  13. CarolAnn says:

    How wonderfully soft and cushy you are. Except it’s all a lie. I can’t tell if you were quoting another of your “secret” sources or if that tripe was your original writing but I do know that you wrote this:

    Actually, life is good for me and mine. Free, white, rich, retired, healthy surrounded by memories, friends, kids and grandkids! I wish EVERY American had my opportunities.

    On the negative side, as a nation, we have Donald J Trump, a demnented, selfish, hateful, narcissitic, authoritarian, racist, angry, spiteful, dishonest, cruel, ignorant, clever, manipulative, felonious, cheating, immoral traitor trying to become our next President!

    Trump’s internal driving force is for adoration and acclaim, that is, to be recognized as The Greatest*. He exists in a fantasy world, a psychological bubble of his own making, devoid of realism. Only He can save America, Western civilization and the planet!! He doesn’t really believe that, nor does he care about real events. He just wants to be adored, revered, “loved”, respected and feared, as the Greatest.

    He is clever to tell the susceptible of his illusion that he will solve THEIR problems which they see as Muslims, Mexicans, Jews, queers, wokies, fags and trannies, athiests and nig… er, Negroes who are trying to replace the moral, hard-working, white Christians who created and maintain the American way of life!!

    All that hate, spite and animosity towards others then you comment this shit today? You must me a schizophrenic or off your meds.

    • Elwood P. Dowd says:

      Pastor Chris Kratzer was quoted.

      Chris Kratzer is a pastor and author of 25 years. His transition away from conservative Evangelicalism has served thousands around the world in discovering a faith that doesn’t require one to lose their mind, heart, and self in the process. Chris purposes his writing on being a voice for the spiritually oppressed that they may know they are loved, affirmed, and not alone, while also calling the evils of modern, conservative Christianity out of the shadows. Chris is married with four children.

      Why do you find my harsh criticisms of Trump and his worshippers such as you inconsistent with Pastor Kratzer’s writing?

      As I’ve described before, I appreciate the teachings of Jesus but not the teachings of far-right Evangelical Christians who hate: queers, gays, lesbians, trans, Blacks, Jews, Muslims, atheists, agostics, Browns, Hispanics, Native Americans, foreigners…

      Is that what Jesus taught? Hate?

      I pointed out how parallel the teachings of Conservative Evangelical Christianity and the MAGA philosophy are. White, conservative, christian and straight! No others need apply. According to CEC, the “others” are sick, infected, perverted, lazy, stupid, communist, primitive, sinful, dangerous, violent animals undeserving of grace.

      Do you believe America has room for Blacks, Muslims, immigrants, atheists and LGBTQ peoples?

      • drowningpuppies says:

        Preach to us about hate, dipshit. https://www.thepiratescove.us/wp-content/plugins/wp-monalisa/icons/wpml_bye.gif

      • CarolAnn says:

        As long as you insist upon calling those of us who support Trump as “Trump and his worshippers” we will neither listen nor respect one snarky word you write. We no more worship Trump then you do Kamala. Although with your proven propensity for projection perhaps you do. We are conservative Patriotic Americans who support Trump for president because we support most of his policies. We are God fearing Christians who worship our Lord Jesus Christ as our savior. The former is our political view the latter our religious views. Unlike radical leftists and communists we do not conflate the tow. Also unlike brain washed democrat sheep we do not agree with nor endorse everything our political leaders say. We are not mindless morons.

        As usual through your eyes of projection you believe we ‘worship” Trump. We do not. We worship Christ. Apparently since you worship your political leaders as you showed with the adoration of Obama you automatically assume we do the same. Lose that idea because we only worship God unlike you who do not and so it seems you have replaced God with whoever is the current leader of your warped political party at the time.

        You have also replaced objective and logical science with the religious worship of political cults like man made global warming. You are twisting science to force a political agenda. That’s exactly what the communists did when they refuted God. Welcome to their world. You are no different than a moslem in the way you debauched God and government. I guess that’s why you accuse us of wanting some silly Christian nation which is just stupid since if that’s what we want that’s what we would have created in 1776. After all, it’s you guys who want to “fundamentally change” America.

        There is no point in arguing with a person whose religion is his government.

        • Elwood P. Dowd says:

          CarolAnn,

          I apologize for claiming you worship Trump. You support Trump, just with zeal. We’ll leave it at that. I support Democratic candidate(s) because their policy proposals or more in line with my social beliefs.

          Mr Trump supports harming gays, trans, immigrants, women, rape victims, Muslims and Blacks.

          Do you see where your religious beliefs parallel Mr Trump’s political beliefs?

          BTW, why do you fear God? Isn’t God love?

          More from Pastor Kratzer:

          The truth is, you don’t have to believe the LGBTQ community is living in sin in order to love Jesus, honor the Scriptures, and be faithful to God. However, you sure do have to bend, twist, and break the equality-loving heart of the Father, and the equal splendor of all of His creation, if you’re going to protect and prosper your diabolical, evil Empire of white, male, heterosexual, conservative, Christian supremacy.

          Nothing threatens your evil Empire of white privilege and right-wing religious imperialism more than a world of true equality where women, minorities, and those who are different, are divinely affirmed and declared as equally beautiful, valued, and redeemed by the Father Himself.

          • CarolAnn says:

            I hope I support Trump with at least the same zeal you support Harris. I support Trump for the same reasons you support Harris. It’s how a free republic works.

            Mr Trump supports harming gays, trans, immigrants, women, rape victims, Muslims and Blacks.

            No he doesn’t and it’s both Ludacris and disingenuous to say something that demonstrably nasty. Neither Trump nor we his supporters have ever indicated we back harming anyone other than enemies to the United States. Ever.

            Do you see where your religious beliefs parallel Mr Trump’s political beliefs?

            No I don’t but I can ask that of you and Harris too.

            BTW, why do you fear God? Isn’t God love?

            When we say we fear God we don’t mean that as we would fear a murderer or a robber. We mean we fear disappointing Him and the love He shows us. It’s not like He’s gonna beat the shit out of us it’s like it hurts us to hurt Him. Kind of like the fear of the sadness you would bring on your wife if you cheated on her.

            Those two additional paragraphs from Kratzer calling white and right wing religious people out for their view is interesting. Does he feel the same about Black Lives Matter, The SPLC and other leftist organizations supporting people and policies not looked upon as “woke”?

          • The avowedly agnostic Mr Dowd wrote:

            BTW, why do you fear God? Isn’t God love?

            More from Pastor Kratzer:

            More from Jesus Christ!

            Matthew 5: 17 “Do not presume that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish, but to fulfill.

            18 For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke of a letter shall pass from the Law, until all is accomplished!

            19 Therefore, whoever nullifies one of the least of these commandments, and teaches others to do the same, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever keeps and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

            20 “For I say to you that unless your righteousness far surpasses that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven.”

            So, whose words should I trust more? Chris Kratzer, a pastor and author of 25 years, or the only begotton Son of God?

          • Elwood P. Dowd says:

            Dana,

            Kratzer is real, here and now.

            The Bible was written by and rewritten by men thousands of years ago.

          • drowningpuppies says:

  14. Elwood P. Dowd says:

    Governor Walz’s approval went up, Jaded Vance’s went down. Pundits loved JD, The People loved Tim!

    JD is a slick, slimy, smarmy, smooth, arrogant, Ivy league lawyer turned venture capitalist, viper-like, lying chameleonic faker. Everyone recognizes that except MAGAts. He is LESS popular than Krazy Donnie!!!

    His good “friend”, gay billionaire Peter Thiel, “groomed” JD to be a venture capitalist and then bought him a Senate seat in Ohio.

    JD has called for an absolute national ban on abortion. Without exception. Too wrongs don’t make a right, he cried!! Until last night.
    He has criticized women as childless cat ladies. Until last night.
    He called Krazy Donnie an America’s Hitler. Until last night.
    He blamed women for leaving and divorcing abusive husbands. Until last night.
    He said legal Haitians were eating pet cats!! Until last nignt.
    He called Democrats “childess sociopaths”. Until last night.
    He proposed giving people with children more votes!! Until last night.

    Last night he did call legal Haitians “illegal” and whined like a baby when corrected. “It was my uderstanding there would be no fact checking.”
    Last night he claimed Krazy Donnie saved Obamacare!!! Donnie tried to kill and replace Obamacare but failed.
    He claimed that Krazy Donnie left Harris/Biden a great economy!! (6.7% unemployment; now 4.2% ) (DJIA 30,600; now 42,200) (Trump lost -2.7 million jobs; Harris/Biden gained +13.4 million and nearly +1 million in manufacturing!)
    JD claimed then-Senator Harris censored Americans during Covid???

    N.B. – Republicans have longed blamed their poor economic performances on the previous Dem administrations and claim the Dem successes result from the previous Repub admins!

  15. Elwood P. Dowd says:

    Is there a punishment for not pleasing God? Can an unrepentant lesbian Christian go to heaven?

    How about Pastor Kratzer?

    Some Republican legislatures have banned all abortions. Doesn’t that harm rape victims? The 10 year old incest victim in Ohio had to travel to Indiana to receive an abortion. Isn’t that a “harm”. Should other raped women be prevented from obaining an abortion?

    Should same sex marriage be banned?

    Should America block the immigration of Muslims? Should Muslims, Hindus, atheists be forced to read the 10 Commandments in school?

    BLM and SPLC attempt to lift up those the far-right attempt to keep down.

    Any Black supremicist organizations deserve the same criticism as the Trump movement.

    Harris (and Dems in general) tend to support those oppressed and with fewer advantages. They tend to support freedom for everyone.
