the best moments of last night's debate

She knew she had succeeded in unhinging the buffoon in front of millions. Madame Secretary is brilliant! Just more evidence that Mr. Trump is temperamentally unfit to hold the office of the Presidency of the United States. Read Wonkette's take.

MyRoatan Factoid: Living basketball legend Shaquille O'neal (shimmying with Mrs. Clinton in the hilarious gif above) was in two of my business courses at LSU. He would typically attend class the first couple of weeks and then pretty much only show up for the exams after that. Apparently star athletes (with their hyper-demanding practice, games, and travel schedules) had access to "notes takers" who attended class for them, took lecture notes, and then tutored them privately on the subject matters.

Shaq (who went on to have an outstanding NBA career) was about as big a college sports superstar as they come. A 900-pound bronze statue of O'Neal is now located in front of the LSU Tigers Basketball Practice Facility. I love the fact that this amazing man is one of my "peers," in the sense that we attended the same university, had similar academic interests, and -- on several occasions -- all 7'1", 300 lbs. of Shaq sat just a few feet away from me in a Baton Rouge classroom. How can one not strive for excellence with such awesome contemporaries as constant inspiration?

I'm SO happy and grateful for Hillary Rodham Clinton!

I'M 100% WITH HER!

a great choice!

The more I learn about Tim Kaine, Hillary's choice for VP, the more I like him! What an awesome man. His strong connection to Honduras is very intriguing.

After being admitted to Harvard Law School, Kaine took a year off to volunteer with the Jesuits at a vocational school in El Progreso, Honduras. In Honduras Kaine learned to speak Spanish, a skill he will likely use on the campaign trail this fall. According to Kaine, that year was a watershed time in his life. “I think of El Progreso everyday,” Kaine said. “The people, aside from my family, are the most important in shaping who I am today.” He also claims his experiences with the Jesuits have inspired his public service: “I do what I do for spiritual reasons. I’m always thinking about the momentary reality, but also how it connects with bigger matters of what’s important in life.

hillary one-on-one

Part 2 after the jump

funny stuff

I'm a fan of Hillary, but regardless, I have to admit this Internet meme is very clever, twisted, and funny!

I say, consider this:



If psychotic Donald Trump is going to try to paint Mrs. Clinton as "crazy," perhaps she ought to call his bluff, embrace it, and make this song the theme of her campaign. Just saying.

chile! hold up

If this election is a resume competition, then Hillary Clinton's gonna be the next president

- U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-Florida)

This meme refers to the first televised Republican primary debate 2015.

love me some hillary!

Aaaarrrghh! How dare you question my patriotism?! How dare you question my love for my country?! How dare you question my 1000% commitment to the greater good of the United States of America? HOW F**KING DARE YOU?!*

Mrs. Clinton testifies before the U.S. Congress about the tragic Benghazi event. You go, Madame Secretary!

This strong, formidable, awe-inspiring lady is one of my heroes.

*What this photo says to me.

you go, Hill!

Make no mistake about it. We've done it before and we will do it again. America will once again rise from the ashes of the Bushes.

- Hillary Clinton, 10/12/08

It can't happen fast enough. I want the real U.S. back (the one I used to admire: Ronald Reagan's "the shining city upon a hill"). I hope the first thing the next U.S. President does is make the use of torture by Americans illegal again. That would be but the beginning of the reassembly of a once admirable country.
