Not so sure about that.

Sheesh, every damn time there’s a new story or new development, I find myself asking, for the umpteenth time, “how is this NOT collusion?”

December 27, 2017

Indeed.

December 27, 2017

Yep. Applause for this post!!!

Thank you, Beartracks! Just look for the “D” on the ballot. “D” - for “DO IT, DAMMIT!”

NO “I’s” either because they can’t always be fully trusted. It’s just by luck that the two “I’s” in there now do caucus with us, but that’s not always gonna be guaranteed. It’s one or the other. A binary choice. And I’m sorry but that’s how it IS and that’s what it is and that’s all we’ve got. Yeah, I always like choices but in THIS particular situation, this is what there is, this is what we HAVE, and that’s the reality.

It’s “D” or Die.

Frankly, at this point, I don’t care if it’s from Mars. If it’s got a “D” after its name, I’m voting for it. The lamest “D” is FAR better than an “R” for all the reasons you’ve laid out here, Beartracks.

If Putin is unhappy, then I am happy!

Whatever it is that upsets him, I’m totally okay with!

December 27, 2017

I am with you. Refusing to bring a butter knife to a gunfight.

Damn straight!

The sad truth is - if you play fair and the other guy cheats and wins, then who’s the chump? The cheater gets another point on the board that can be the difference regarding which party gets majority status. The fair-play person gets rolled. Again.

December 27, 2017

Absolutely.

Remarkable stuff!

Thanks for posting this, Eugene!

If I were Harry, I wouldn't want trump anywhere near my sweetheart!

I wouldn’t want him touching her with those grubby little pussy-grabbing paws, or trying to push himself on her to kiss her as he has already said, on the record, he can’t help doing with beautiful women. Keep him AWAY, Harry!!!

Well, seems to me it would be easier for Harry and Meghan

to be more selective - AND invite or not invite who they wanted. After all, Prince Harry is much farther down in the line of succession. It probably would make more of a difference if it were Will and Kate. There would have been stricter protocols for them regarding invitations to other heads of state and alleged-but-still-illegitimate “heads of state” (like trump).

If it were me, I wouldn’t want those wretched assholes sullying MY special day, either. Besides, trump would want all the attention.

December 26, 2017

That will be me next to you, also flipping the bird at that squatter in OUR White House.

I’ll be using both “saluting fingers”.

About calimary

Female. Retired. Wife-Mom-Grandma. Approx. 30 years in broadcasting, at least 20 of those in news biz. Taurus. Loves chocolate - preferably without nuts or cocoanut. Animal lover. Rock-hound from pre-school age. Proud Democrat for life. Ardent environmentalist and pro-choicer. Hoping to use my skills set for the greater good. Still married to the same guy for 40+ years. Probably because he's a proud Democrat, too. Penmanship absolutely stinks, so I'm glad I'm a fast typist! I will always love Hillary and she will always be my President.
