Tuesday Overnight Open Thread (11/7/23) Off Year Elections Edition

Quote I

“For 45 minutes, they struck the rudder fin causing major damage and a leak,” Lewandowski’s post stated. “Despite efforts to bring the yacht to port made by the Captain, Crew, and [Search and Rescue] rescuers, as well as with the help of port tugboats and the Moroccan navy, the vessel sank near the entrance to the Tangier Med port. The crew is safe, whole, and healthy now in Spain.” Morskie Mile captain Lech Lewandowski

Quote II

"It’s really scary, honestly. I’m about to put my house up for sale and go." Lexi Pantelup of Coral Gables, Florida

Dear GOP Presidential Candidates:

You may or may not see the following, I hope you have someone on your staff that will forward this to you. And if you want to see an older guy shocked, answer the following. You can reach us here at The ONT via petmorons at g mail dot com.

The following letter is from a Conservative. I use to be a Republican but former POTUS George W. Bush screwed that up with the Gang of 14 and the original nomination of Harriet Meyers. Throw in Keating 5 John McCain and Romney-Care Mitt Romney and I'm done throwing money to the RNC. You may get my vote but never again will you get a financial contribution. My first vote ever was for Ronald Reagan in 1980. So I'm not a Johnny Come Lately to presidential elections.

Ladies first, Nikki Haley. Ms. Haley, are you running for POTUS or the Vice President Slot? I can't tell. One minute your Pro-Trump, the next moment, not.

You check off some of the boxes which modern society seems to have embraced. You are brown and you have a vagina.

You like the status quo. You think things were broken when Donald Trump was elected in 2016. Nothing was broken. You are Democrat-Lite, you'll spend my tax dollar better than the Dems. Your foreign intervention will be to shove down the throats of people American Democracy. It has worked so well with the Muslims of the Middle East hasn't it?

Go away, you'll never be elected POTUS. Find a nice teaching job. Sit on some Woke Corporation's Board of Directors. But go away.

Now onto Former NJ Gov. Chris Christie. You may have been a fine US Attorney General. Perhaps you were an adequate governor of the State of New Jersey. You know the Federal Statutes or the right clerks to help you out. However, you don't know the average GOP voter. I said voters not the Big Dollar Donors.

Yes, we all know you have a burr under your 6XL saddle for Donald Trump. Yes, you want him to go away. Not nearly as bad as the rest of us want you to go away.

You will never be the POTUS. So be an adult pull up your big, big, big, big boy pants and waddle into the sunset.

Vivek Ramaswamy, I'll be honest. I really didn't know who you were before you declared your candidacy. And I really don't know who you are now. Get involved in the Conservative movement, let us get to know you before we throw away our vote on you. Walk away with your head high and plan for the future.

US Senator Tim Scott (R-SC). I have seen you on television over the years. You seem like a nice guy. You're smart and apparently don't take anything to personally in the Senate or on the set of The View.

I don't think you're a fighter. I do not see you taking on any of the Deep Swamp agencies or departments. Sorry, convince me that I'm wrong. Please continue to represent your constitutents of South Carolina.

Oh how could I have almost forgotten the admirable and stunning Former Governor of Arkansas (No. Not Bill Clinton sillies) Asa Hutchinson. Mr. Hutchinson unfortunately you seem to be a puppet pulled by the Corporate Board of Directors and not Republican voters. No, Republicans do not want immigration reform, we want immigration laws enforced. We believe there are 2 genders, 2 sexes.

Don't you have prices to lower at your nearest Walmart?

President Trump. God bless you. I don't know how you got up morning after morning and went to the Oval Office facing the cruel lies, hate and disrespect for you and your supporters. I'll admit it, I was not a fan of yours initially in the GOP 2016 Primary Season. However, you convinced me that you stood for most of my values and you were and still are a fighter. And I sincerely thank you for your service to our country.

That said, the following saddens me to write. Please suspend your candidacy. You have too many challenges in front of you which needs your full attention. I don't have a crystal ball, but I believe by the 2024 election comes around you will be a convicted felon on appeal and you will lose the general. There is too much Trump Fatigue now and into the foreseeable future.

Go spend time with your wife, children and grandchildren. I'm sorry if you think I'm a traitor. If you are the 2024 nominee I will vote for you. But, you are not my first choice.

For all intents and purpose that leaves you Florida's Governor Ron DeSantis. Keep doing what you are doing in Florida and on the national stage. Our former VP Pence might call you and I Populists. But if that means controlled immigration, lack of involvement in every international dick measuring contest, fighting the culture wars to name but a few then you have my vote.

Sincerely,

Misanthropic Humanitarian

PS: If you are a declared candidate and I didn't mention you. Why are you still a candidate? Do you enjoy eating rubber chicken dinners and working the program of Grifting 101 Pocket Change?

These are some of the strange objects that get stuck in people's bodies, according to CDC data. Foreign objects lodged in the human body can cause ‘serious injury,’ Dr. Marc Siegel warns No shit Doc

Magnets, chargers, lollipops and orange peels are just some of the surprising objects that people got stuck in their bodies in 2021, according to reports from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission’s (CPSC) database.

Foreign objects lodged in people’s bodies was the ninth leading cause of unintentional injuries that led to emergency room visits in 2021, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) — with nearly 278,000 U.S. adults seeking care.

"Foreign objects being stuck in strange places is predictable at No. 9, when you consider that more than half are sex toys," Dr. Marc Siegel, clinical professor of medicine at NYU Langone Medical Center, told Fox News Digital about the data.

Atheltics and luck, sometimes you have to make the luck. Tonight's Feel Good Story of The Day

Liberty High School’s (Peoria, Ariz.) first intramural basketball game with its Unified Program ended with a scene-stealing, crowd-rushing, half-court shot from the hands of a special needs student that fell into the hoop and sent the gymnasium into a frenzy.

Junior Tonatiuh Ramirez, who goes by “T,” made the shot from just past the half-court line in a crowd of defenders as the game came to an end. This game allows kids with disabilities and general education students to participate together in activities such as basketball, according to 12News.
