Buffons - ( pronounced Boo-Fahns) - it's a GOP Elite Thing

I have a blog that does not allow comments to be edited after they have been posted. It is an old blog; been around over 20 years. I imagine the software that created it is a tad out of date. The smart thing to do would be to create a major makeover, maybe even switch to Wordpress from Blogger because I am told that anyone still using Blogger is a loser, a dinosaur, a dimwit who can't keep up with the pace of the World today. 

Let me just say, I am guilty on all counts. I have often experienced periods of "Loser-ness"; maybe not enough to place me anywhere near the top ten; afterall, I am no Donald Trump. At 74 years of age, If not a dinosaur, I think it is safe to say I have successfully made it to the land time forgot. I sure party hardy with them. And regarding being a dimwit; that would be directly related to who you might ask. The Wingers would certainly agree. Hell, I would often agree. But then I don't care what people think of me other than my family and a friend or two. Long ago, I lost the battle to convince my wife I am of sound and coherent mind. Others in my family, again, it would depend on who you might ask. My over the edge MAGA brother.... you can imagine.

But back to the topic. It is damn frustrating when the shiny objects passing by can't be resisted.  Anyway ......

I have stated I cannot edit my posted comments on my blog. The software won't allow it. This morning I replied to one of my few commenters:

"I take intermittent breaks from playing with the brainless Winger Buffons"

I did manage to catch my error before I hit the "publish" button. As I corrected it, I considered the mistake, "Buffons". If "Buffon" was a real word, I imagine the definition would go something like :

Buffon - A person or persons who practice the fine art of Buffoonery. They are proud of their buffoonery; so much so, they refer to the most talented among them as "Buffoonerists".

No group has currently embraced Buffoonery as wholehearedly as the Right Wing of American Politics. They revel in thier buffoonery, yet, they get pissy when called Buffoons by anyone other than fellow Buffons. It's one of those tribal prerogatives. It's okay when they use it, but no one outside the tribe can. Severe pantie twisting among the faithful ensues, mouths are likely to foam and generational revenge plans are laid to someday pay back the offender or their offspring for the insult.

The Buffons of the Right have become so emboldened, they are now allowing more of their group's buffoonery to leak out into the light of day. Why, just a day or two ago, someone leaked pictures of the husband of their own Kristi Noem, the ex- head of DHS. Apparently her husband is a cross dresser with a fondness for big boobs....... wearing them, that is. 

I personally do not care what anyone chooses for a wardrobe. But then I am an avowed dimwitted Libtard who just wants everyone to get along. The Tribe of Buffons are dismissive of any criticisms even though his prediliction for ladies wear flies in the face of their public image of God Fearing, Straight Shooting Missionary Position, Church Going Puritan Lifestyles. It is no wonder us dimwits cannot figure out where their heads are really at. I mean within their ranks, they seem to sport a high percentage of convicted pedophiles, election fraud practioners, and scam artists, who have chosen hypocrites to lead their assault on America. 

Keep it 'tween the ditches ..............................

The perfect song for what our nation is dealing with today was written for the 1973 Broadway musical, "A Little Night Music" by Stephen Sondheim. The song seems to draw a parallel to Life's struggles when things are not panning out. "Send in the Clowns" in stage speak, refers to a play or musical that is struggling....... time to "Send in the Clowns".

It was first sung by Glynis Johns in the musical and later became a song many top singers wanted to cover. Some folks consider Judy Collins' and Frank Sinatra's covers the best of the bunch. Being at heart, a RocknRoll, Blues kinda guy, I searched for a RnR cover.

I found that there were precious few RocknRoll covers of "Send in the Clowns"; actually not more than one or two recent covers anyway. I tasted over ten songs and none of them hit even close to how good Judy Collins' version was in my opinion. Here is Judy Collins' cover from 1975.
