Over Sized Sherpa Hoodie. Yeah, but it's no Yanket.


Yahoo: This cozy oversized sherpa hoodie is like wearing a blanket — 'I love it, my dog loves it, my friends are envious'. (Friends envious of a wearable blanket? That seems an overly-enthusiastic endorsement - DD).
Ever dreamed of wearing your favorite blanket out of the house as you ran your errands for the day?

Call it silly or call it life-changing, but the Blanket Sweatshirt combines all our favorite things about a cozy blanket and transforms it into an oversized, shockingly soft hoodie.
[.]
The Blanket Sweatshirt comes oversized and snuggly, plus it even has a giant pocket at the front to keep your hands warm (or to house all the snacks).
[.]
You can wear it to walk the dog, get the mail, or even a grocery run.
Uh - no, I've never dreamed of wearing a blanket while on errands or in public. I don't wear them around the house, for that matter.

Life-changing? Let's hope not.

Although the Sherpa Hoodie seems like the appropriate go-to attire for both Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders for their next debate, with each wearing one of those red and white sleeping caps.

Still...The Sherpa Hoodie is no Yanket. Then again, what is...

Post-debate Warren confronts Sanders: "I think you called me a liar on national TV." (Video)

Post-DEM debate conversation between Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders, January 14, 2020.

@ Ursula Perano Twitter:


DEM Tom Steyer stops by just "to say hi" to fellow rich, white, old man Bernie Sanders. Sanders..."yeah," waving him off. Well, it was three hours past Bernie's usual bed-time.

The correct spelling is Whine Cave.

CNN: Democrats debate wine cave.
The term "wine cave" was thrown around repeatedly Thursday night at the Democratic presidential debate during an exchange over how Pete Buttigieg is funding his campaign.

Here's why: The South Bend, Indiana, mayor headlined a fundraiser earlier this month in Rutherford, California, at Hall Wines, a winery owned by Kathryn Hall, who was the US ambassador to Austria from 1998 to 2001, and her husband, Craig.

Part of the event took place in a so-called "wine cave" under a chandelier of 1,500 Swarovski crystals.
[.]
"So [Buttigieg] just recently had a fundraiser that was held in a wine cave full of crystals and served $900-a-bottle wine," Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts said on Thursday.
Whine Caves, swimmin' pools, movie stars!

Marianne Williamson retweets fake news/satire that Charles Manson pardoned by President Trump. Then she deletes tweet!

The spirit world and Fake News tells her things.

DEM presidential wanna-be Marianne Williamson pwnd by Satire.

Marianne Williamson was a favorite of many on the Right because she was so very entertaining. She didn’t even TRY to hide the fact that she’s straight-up loopy.

Putting it out there like that deserves a little bit of respect.

It doesn’t make her any less LOOPY, though. And she gave us yet another reminder of why we don’t actually take her seriously.

    This never happened. Williamson just tweeted this.

    This is a woman who gets furious when she’s told that she’s unserious and not prepared to run. pic.twitter.com/3uC8Nqfidj

Two minutes later she added this…
While it originally came from a parody site, she probably picked it up from someone reposting a story from the DailyKos who stupidly ran it the same day. Not that something that blatantly stupid could ever hurt the credibility of a dumpster fire site like the Daily Kos.
[.]
    Note [sic, probably meant "not"] only absurdly false, but impossible. Manson was convicted on state charges, which the president cannot pardon. 🤣

    Williamson is now burying all of her related tweets.

Don't fact-check or search any deeper than DKos or Twitter, Marianne. Just go with that kneejerk political Liberal reflex.

Twitter (and FB) is good. It identifies the stupid and uninformed for us. And we don't have to break a sweat finding out.

Cory Booker says the government is underfunded, needs more revenue. More taxes! Higher taxes! He even wants to take away our Sunny Afternoon!


SEN. CORY BOOKER (D-NJ) at MSNBC's Democratic presidential primary debate: Well, first of all, I think we all agree that we need to bring in a lot more revenue in this country. We actually have a real problem with the tax rates, tax loopholes, tax cheats. And I don't agree with the wealth tax, the way that Elizabeth Warren puts it, but I agree that we need to raise the estate tax. We need to tax capital gains as ordinary income. Real strategies will increase revenue.

But here's the challenge. We as Democrats need to fight for a just taxation system. But as I travel around the country, we Democrats also have to talk about how to grow wealth, as well.
Yeah, it's not a a spending problem. It's a lack of revenue.

"Grow wealth." Cory needs to consult with Crazy Bernie and Liz Warren on that. He's obviously far behind the 8-ball.

The Kinks - "Sunny Afternoon", DEMS want to take that away from us too.

Premature EJoeculation. Debate performance email sent six hours early.


Former Vice President Joe Biden’s staff got a little trigger happy on Wednesday, prematurely sending out a fundraising email asking for feedback on his performance in the night’s debate, asking in the subject line: “Did I make you proud?”

The email went out around 3 p.m., a good six hours before the debate is set to kick off and at least eight hours before it’s expected to end.

I’m leaving the fifth Democratic debate now,” the fundraising plea begins. “I hope I made you proud out there, and I hope I made it clear to the world why our campaign is so important.”
[.]
[An hour later, another email was sent stating] “Oops,” the subject line read. “You might have just gotten an email from Joe about just getting off of the debate stage. That’s our bad.”

“We know Joe is going to make us proud tonight. We were just so excited for it that we accidentally hit send too soon,” [read the email].
"Too soon?"

Someone hit "send" instead of "save". Unintentionally? Nah. It was Russia. Ssshhhh, don't tell anyone.

Castro stands on box to appear taller at Thursday's DEM debate circus.

How embarrassing.

Julián Castro stood on a box during the third Democratic primary debate to help him look taller alongside the other candidates.

Castro joined nine other Democratic presidential candidates on the debate stage in Houston on Thursday. Castro, who is 5-foot-9, was one of possibly several candidates that stood on raised platforms behind their podiums. It was not immediately clear whether other candidates were also on boxes.
He uses one of these, too, at the table so he can reach his Sippy cup.
