"Far out man...ditto dude!"

Distancing Our-selves: No matter what age and time we find our-selves observing the so-called political scene...the vocab. used to describe similar conditions and circumstances...

Poor-trayals: Generally speaking, at least. The younger generations, defined, classified here as those that followed the 60's..."man...😎" an expanse of time that eventually saw the (now unisex) "dude!" come to capture "Every man Jack, Jill, woman, child...." They, the d-gens, as they will be called henceforth, wonder how me, ever got by without it...

"Shut up!" Itself has come to be strongly associated with "The Man" him-self but, while conveying what he first emphasized, as in context, when nothing else would suffice (or came to mind?), in Round One of what even back then seemed "far out, man!" as in nothing resembling an intellectual debate...this time around it was his own con-stituents (get the "con" part?) and other-wise handlers (this is where "Jill" comes in)...in more discrete as in "hush!" tones, try to minimize the damage...of which there's plenty to go around...

Bi-directional: As in two separate, especially extreme directions that almost seem a uni-versal theme, scene..."not so much an endorsement for, as one against the far..." Sound familiar? As in historical lesson as in what "comes around..." It should if you're a Brit this morning, or one whose "ship has sailed"...across the pond....many generations ago, "braving the seas to escape tyranny and such extreme conditions..." Where in their midst, the so-called "far right, the extreme left..." so many electors elected to stay home...That is, until...

The fireworks (trading insults and such) are finally over:** And the (blue smoke and mirrors) have given way to the inevitable return of the talking heads who talk to us about their own version of the "hubbub" (which might just creep into our collective consciousness to at least augment "dude!"). Translated: sorting out why, on the one hand, this morning over there and perhaps some yet to come...over here...the real reasons for the "landslide" victory on the one hand, and the "crushing!" defeat on the other...

Balancing Act: As in how the Extreme Right and the Far Out! Left can counter-balance each other...which is where the so-called "Reform(ing)" Party came into existence, I would imagine...Which may, in the future occupy what's called "Center Stage"...Otherwise, history will likely characterize this as a time where most of the Brits, Iranians, and U.S. here, sought out the...

"Exits!"

**Do-over: Not sure if it was because of the real or meta-phorical fireworks, but in either case, as in both air and  (their) hair quality, the rating today was "equally unhealthy"...🤣!

Next in line: "Gimme' an (All-Star) Break!" More ballots to cast.

  "King David, where art Thou?" Here and Now: When I need and you most...for a quote, a tip, let alone a quip... Clever crafted commentary: At his best, in his field, "In my humble opinion..."  "Coming to you tonight..." Each and every night, assuming we welcomed him with his partner, known in our home, as simply "Chet" when we referred to him on his own, but more formally when paired with "David" as the "Huntley-Brinkley" reporting team... Distinctly Brinkley: who got called on whenever things around here, US, were on the brink... "Sow, David..." It's how I heard it, and still remember it, as he was asked to comment, well into the eve of what was casted to be his final telecast of this type, on the eve of a second coming...of the Clintons, their return to the White House...a second (merry) go round... "For the love of Mike!" While he was not shy of the microphone, having gotten used to one on his desk ...
