Mo & Mo en Route – New Measure?

New Measure?

The resurrecting of old tropes, and employing excuses and what-aboutism wants to enshrine this as a new standard of discourse.

Congress was debating again last week, the traipsing out of old tired tropes about the un-Americanness of one religious or ethnic group or another.
Congress punted, condemning hate in general. Which seems obvious, though not necessarily so these days. 
It’s all so mucky in a time when Twitterization and Trumpism have become our new norm and standard of measure. That’s just wrong…
Ctrl-Z… Ctrl-Z… Ctrl-Z… Ctrl-Z…  Sadly, that’s not how it works.

Mo & Mo en Route – Fear It?

Fear It?

So many arguments now are made with fear, a poor alternative to love and reason.

Fear this, fear that, fear them… fear, fear, fear! It is used to sell everything.
Businesses market with fear, all sorts of interest groups promote it.
The President uses it whenever he can. And his opponents use it.
It can be a motivator… but it is no way to live!

Mo & Mo en Route – Populism = Union?

Populism = Union?

Populism + enemy + fight + division = union???

Populism still seems quite popular…
…Particularly with those in the White House …And others running for it. 
Got to have those enemies …Fight the good fight. …and the not so good fight. 
United we stand divided we… Govern the union with Populist division? ...Fall.

Mo & Mo en Route – Congress Emergency

Congress Emergency

Co-equal Branch? Whether it’s abdication or neglect, the Legislative Branch needs to do it’s due, and reclaim its duties.

National Emergency is called, after a White House fail… The Senate protests, then they shrug.
It’s the Constitution!… The Power of the Purse. The Import Export Clause (Tariffs), 
Congress is just throwing it away… The Treaty Clause. The War Powers Clause.
Congress… is now less than Co-equal, light on legislation, with loads of White House lackeys,  and lots longing to be President. Yeah, it’s kind of Oval Office Bootcamp.

Mo & Mo en Route – AAII

AAII

American AI Initiative, the government’s foray into the future of AI, but its intelligence is only as good as those who write it.

U.S. joins the world with its own AI strategy  ̶   the AAII. What IISS that?
American AI Initiative. It’s more funding and projects dedicated to Artificial Intelligence.
That’s fine, but teachers in LA and Denver have to strike to get more funding.
How do you promote and fund AI, if you don’t promote and fund Intelligence? 
The former kind of needs the latter. when you have AI without intelligence you end up with a lot of fake… Don’t say it. …facts, figures & phooey.

Mo & Mo en Route – Union?

Perfect Union?

State of the Union? “We the people…” not just a preamble, but a plan to be put into practice.

Another State of the Union and another State of the Union tradition, the “Guests”.
Persons Paraded and presented to Purport a Political Point of View.
Often played as pawns to progress a partisan plan.
If only we gave proper due to the people’s problems, we could promote that more perfect union. Now that would be a better state.

Mo & Mo en Route – Next

“Wait till next year” is the mantra and the campaign is ramping up quickly? How many in the field? Who knows?

Super Bowl is this weekend…  Quite the post-season, the Double-Doink, the No-Calls, Overtimes, a lot of teams waiting till next year.
How about the pre-season? 8 have declared for president, it’s not even February, and the primaries aren’t till next year.
Next year is leap year, maybe we could just leap this year…
Well, 2019 is shaping up to be the “Wait till Next Year Year”.

Mo & Mo en Route – Dealing

Dealing

Making the best deals, the greatest deals, I’m the best, it’s so easy. Really? The words are easy but, actual dealing takes work.

The Shutdown… how’s that deal going?
The Tariff Wars… how’s that deal going?
Dealing with friends, foes, Congress, or problems in general…? Wasn’t dealing supposed to be easy?
Dealing is easy if all you know how to play is 52-card pick-up.

Mo & Mo en Route – Play Fair

Play Fair

It’s time to retire the “Shut Down” as a tool to legislate, and just legislate, compromise not ransom.

Check mate. What? How’d that happen?! That’s it! 
give me back my King, or the chipmunk doesn’t go anywhere!! That’s not how this works. You lost. 
The only way to win, is come up with a better plan. The chipmunk has nothing to do with this. Get a grip. 
I don’t know what came over me. You’re watching too much news. That’s not how civilized folks behave. Sorry. Here. watch a cat video.
