  1. 1. Funny and I know the stories. 2. I was writing about his conduct in his all important public role as president.
  2. Maybe the Army will make the stand and refuse unconstitutional orders. Is there any education about the Constitution in the military services? Ahhh, to be burly and undamaged again. I love this notion. I don't know why, but I'm reminded of movie ad years ago. I Love You to Death where William Hurt seems to be playing a stoner hired to kill someone. He has the hilighted line below. It just popped into my head. I laughed everytime I saw it. I may finally rent the movie, Now, I'm reminded of another perhaps under appreciated movie from 97 called Wag the Dog. As part of the deception, they create a hero from thin air. I think I've got to watch this again. It's on target now. It is funny.
  3. Governance by adults who care about the republic. Decorum, eloquence, grace. A note from Trump would start, "You're ratings are terrible."
  4. Please let me stay ignorant about stuff like this for as long as I can so that I can still sorta love college football. NFL fans have won in their (possibly blind) effort to make college football like their beloved league. I practically covered my ears and started repeating lalalalalalalala when it was mentioned last season that our top QBs were MAGA. I prefer to think it's youthful folly. Embracing this delusion keeps me going. Oh, and what are the discords? Thanks to anyone who clues me in.
  5. I am so often the only person in a room not glued to a phone. Most often, I don't carry my phone with me. My deal with phones is more of a pathology than a virtue. It's interesting to watch something change the personal world so completely and profoundly. At first, it was younger people. Being older, I was naturally ignorantly disdainful. As the change spread to persons of all ages, I was worried, but I changed my disposition to neutral. Just because I can't see how this is a good thing doesn't mean it isn't a good thing. I probably concluded this while in a waiting room idly thinking rather than absorbing ephemera from a little electronic box. Since video tape machines, it has become possible to keep children distracted watching the same shows over and over. Now that concept is portable and provides access to everything including the occasional plan to attack Yemen. Original thought is what I think we lose. We become quoting machines who choose a position and regurgitate whatever makes us feel more secure and righteous. I'm concluding now that all of this is a bad thing. Another bad thing that I can have absolutely no affect on. My sorta out there brother mentioned years ago that the powers that be want a big die-off. Back then he was only sorta out there, so often his predictions worked out. It was worth remembering the things he said for that reason. We have a (now) billionaire leading the Murder Cult Party taking step after step to kill or instill policies that will result in huge death tolls worldwide. We've abandoned AIDS programs in Africa, some specifically assigned to treat HIV-positive children. PLAGUE We don't ship food or aid for food FAMINE We've stepped aside from peacemaking and support an invader WAR What does all of this get us? DEATH I've though for decades that if there is a guiding intelligence to the universe, it must be based in irony and self-fulfilling prophecy. A wry smile for those gods fucking around with the Book of Revelation. I haven't seen this rhetorical device in a while. I guess it's because all the cultists stay segregated. Two things are going on here. On the surface, it attacks persons attempting to maintain a virtue as hypocrites when they fail to be perfect. Beneath the surface is the usual writhing bag of snakes mental illness of the Limbaugh-ists: Because you fail to fully adhere to a virtue you preach, there is no reason for me to be accountable for adhering at all! Gee, what kind of people are anti-tolerance? The best people, of course! I never expected them to stomp the lowest bar for decency (simple tolerance) all the way to the ground.
  6. I have never forgotten that. I'd only seen it when it aired, but it's so memorable. Thanks!
  7. It's hardly worth pursuing.
  8. Plausible deniability.
  9. In Trump's America you can gleefully vote for a lying rapist instead of a decent person, and you can see Charlie Kirk as a saint because those grimy spots are permanent on the back of this leopard. It's who the US is. There is no, if they only understood. They do. They vote it. They do so in certainty of their righteous hate and embrace of ignorance while lying to themselves the whole way. If you can be persuaded that transexuals are a violent terrorist movement, you can't be persuaded that your whole sense of reality is a lie. I harp. I'll stop or try to. It's hard not to obsess about the train on the middle of a collapsing bridge.
  10. They'll apply the same diligent analysis they use to make sure they're only rounding up raping and murdering brown people to deport or put in concentration camps.
  11. In 20 years, I won't have any idea where I am, so it won't matter much as long as it's warm and dry and the oatmeal comes on time.
  12. That's longer analysis than you give black pilots.
  13. Mike Pence maybe saves the republic once and now lays out what would save it now. Compliments to the man. He gets the really big things right.
  14. Rare case of bold and subtle. Too subtle for poopypants. Maybe subtle enough to keep a hellfire missile from flying into the New Yorker office window.
  15. One must be a troglodite to not realize how much better everything is with more minds that were once blocked from contributing. Their crime? They took jobs from entitled white men who couldn't cut the mustard in straight up competition. No doubt, there was a time during quotas when underqualified women and minorities were forced into the economy at levels they'd been denied. Once the opportunity was established, competition among women and minorities to get the best jobs created a qualified worker/manager pool. We're improved as a nation and economy and everything by adding formerly disqualified Americans access to promotion. Fuck Kirk for doubting Black pilots. Fuck the campaign to rehabilitate this degenerate racist. I don't care if you can fish random favorable quotes. They're as believable as Trump's declarations about his faith and familiarity with the Bible. Fuck the ruling white men.
  16. There are many quotes to that effect. Same is true of dear leader.
  17. So Dem inaction is congruent to government overthrow? Interesting. I'd say private citizen inaction in the face of tyranny while whining that the Dems aren't saving them just about defines a pussy. It also defines a person who doesn't get the paradigm shift and thinks it's still the good old days of GOP-Dem political struggle. There are rules in the political contention of a republic. See if you can point any out to me today.
  18. Same can be said about self-identifying as a racist or fascist.
  19. They are so unjustifiably confident in their intelligence that they embrace first assumptions as clever deductions. I hadn't thought about that until reading your post. It explains Aggie fact creation on Texags. A rank guess is taken as truth on a regular basis. That, or many of them actually do have a buddy close to the tu program whe relates them our fear, ebilness, and general fehginess.
  20. No, you're not being clear. You're taking the side of the poor, oppressed white men WHO FUCKING OWN AND RUN JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING. You take the position that racism goes both ways when, actually, one side has been known to operate out of racism while the other side is subject to it. Or perhaps you see the American Experience being the same for all since its inception. I am a white man. I think white men running the country from a sense of superiority to non-white men has caused a lot of problems. White man government in this country has led to the poorly run carnage fest referred to earlier. I'd like to see a stop to it. I've stated that I'd like to see white men step aside for about 20 years. I haven't recommended nor would I support laws or extra-legal efforts to round them up into concentration camps or "holding camps" cheerfully named Alligator Alcatraz by masked, armored, unidentifiable, heavily-armed thugs motoring around in SUVs and military vehicles. You are correct in the quoted post that someone is indeed an idiot. Or willfully obtuse.
  21. Insanity all around. I'm sure the Kennedys are delighted that this guy is the last one leaving the last impression in public life. There are plenty of things not to like about some earlier Kennedys, but they seemed to be well-intentioned and concerned about the country. This guy? Shit Show City
