TWm Testing, one, two, three. Testing, one, two, three.

I, for one, am downright thrilled about the tombstoning of one MannyGoldstein.

While I have a secret crush on his cousin, Third Way Manny, I have always found MannyGoldstein repugnant. He was outspoken, often sarcastic and uber, far, far left, radical liberal. I had nothing in common with him at all.

Third Way Manny, on the other hand, was plain spoken, meant what he said and had his heart in the right place--right at the DNC--and I do mean right. The exception, of course, was when it was at the Brooklyn, NY headquarters of the Hillary campaign (genuflects). I hope we hear from TWM, even though his disagreeable cousin, MannyGoldstein is gone (and may I add, good riddance!).

If I do get wind of anything from Third Way Manny, I'll keep you all posted, so to speak.

I mean, I went along with the joke of the name being Manny, so I used masculine pronouns when referring to Manny. But, I got a definite female vibe.

I mean, I know it's reminiscent of the Bill of Rights, but, remember, most of the Framers were the oligarchs of their day. Oligarchs knew best then and they know best now.

evening in the TWm home. However, no matter what, I look forward to the pundits announcing Hillary won the debate. In fact, they've probably done that already. I should really turn on the TV! TWm
