Blue Moon of Kentucky...

-

Lions and tigers and republicans oh my! Kentucky elected Republican Matt Bevin to be it's next Governor. Bevin is a darling of the Tea Party and tried to unseat Senator Mitch McConnell during the primary last year.

In light of Bevin's election the pundit world is exploding with ramblings about what this means for 2016 and it's dark tidings for the Democrats. Wow, these people really need to leave their bubbles a bit more.

Here for the first time I present to you the truth of what Bevin's election means. Are you ready? Please sit down, Kanesrealm is not responsible for injuries suffered from fainting. Alright, it means that the citizens of Kentucky elected a Republican to be their Governor. I apologize for that shocking revelation but truth cares not for your feelings.
They also elected a Democrat as their Attorney General.

Although Bevin despises the Affordable Care Act, even though Kentucky has been one of the most successful states with that law, he backed off his most heated rhetoric about it toward the end of his campaign. He used gay marriage denier Kim Davis as a part of his campaign to fight for the right for all who love Jesus to sow hate and discord. His Democratic opponent by the way, agreed with him on enacting legislation which will permit County Clerks in Kentucky to not do their job if they so choose.

The real driving issue of the campaign is about coal mines and a deep hatred of Barack Obama, who's about as popular in Kentucky as a tick on a hound dog.

As always I'm here to help you understand the complex issues confronting our country. Just old fashioned analysis from Hindtit, Indiana.

Sacrifice

After a lengthy absence from live performance I found my self wedged in a seat at Theater on the Square in Indianapolis. The production was "Sacrifice" , an original and first play from co-writers Marcus May and Caleb Nunez. Both have experience in short films and a life long love of the arts. The play is about racial tension between two families, one black and one Latino. Leading the Latino family is Ernesto, a building super who's wife was killed many years earlier by a young black male. Ernesto, engagingly played by Joe Vanegas, cannot let go of this life altering experience and as a result has a distrust of African Americans and a prejudice born of pain. His daughter Ana, played by Brittany Crone, views the world through a different lens, one of tolerance and acceptance of diversity. She tries to soften her father's views but to no avail. Enter the new tenants in the building, the black family father and son Antonio and Trey. When Trey meets Ana sparks begin

The Day After

Well, how you doing today. Feeling nauseous? Feeling giddy with joy? Feeling like the Republic is now under the control of a Sith Lord? Feeling like the saviour of the nation has arrived? I guess it all depends on where you stand. I said in this little forum from the very beginning that Donald Trump could get the Republican nomination and go on to win the Presidency. I was hopeful that he wouldn't but never delusional that he couldn't. Forget about the polls which got it wrong and forget about the professional pundits who got it wrong and are still getting it wrong in their analysis. Trump won in the Electoral College because of rural America turning out in large numbers. As I write this Hillary Clinton still has over 200,000 more votes than Donald Trump and that number will likely grow by the time the count is complete. The irony is that the same people who voted for Donald Trump are the ones who rail against the Electoral College. Let me repeat again that millions of Amer
