Well obviously, if you question a global carbon tax, you supported children eating bowls of lead paint chips while hanging out the door of 1964 Ford Falcon as the acid rain fell on their alabaster skin as their parents smoked a pack of lucky strikes and swigged from the bottle of cheap whiskey on a leisurely drive to Lake Erie so the kids could play Marco Polo in the PCB contaminated water.

You're having a tantrum here Tibsy, looking sillier by the moment. You're arguing about something that was never said, and when out of the kindness of Sherpa's heart he helped you understand what was written (2 or 3 times), you keep raging against a point that exists only in your mind. It's a bad look, like Tibsy in a Leisure Suit with Shag haircut bad. Surrender and salvage what is left of your dignity sir.

I think most people realize that there are precious few real options available when it comes to the Middle East. I cannot imagine one sensible American who thinks a conventional war with Iran (or any other country in that region) leads to any real victory. I agree with you on the lives being thrown away, and it truly pains me to say it because of the respect i have for the military and those who serve and the losses they suffer. The reality is that in a conflict, any conflict really, we're an election away from the mindset changing, and even more depressing---almost from the moment conflict occurs, there is always a politician willing to politicize the action taking a contrarian view. My hope it that President Trump was being truthful when he said, for all intents and purposes, that sending Americans to die in perpetual wars is a national disgrace. My hope is that the war hawks don't convince him he was wrong to think that. I think the notion that in this case, he's chosen the action to divert attention from his impeachment/non-impeachment/maybe impeachment gotta-jack-the-polls is sort of silly. He's popular with his base, the dems are punching at smoke from a fire that seems to move on a daily basis, and lacked 100% support from their own pack of hyenas. I'm not convinced the attack on the convoy was the right move, but on the other hand I have no idea what the intel showed as it related to these particular cretins. That might be nice to know before we judge the mission one way or the other. The consensus is these were bad humans, that the evidence was there that they took the lives of Americans in the past and would have continued on that path in the future. I'm always struck by the notion that somehow, military action of this nature will somehow make this particular sort of enemy hate us more. If this is the case, why worry about a murderer like Bin Laden, effectively sequestered and neutered in a cave in goat-$#@$ country with his merry band of scumbags scattered to the winds. Most definitely agree with you in principle.

Welp...this did not age well and as of today, neither shall he.

No, not 12! 10’s the key number here. Think about it. 10 Downing Street . Bo Derek’s bouncing boobs on the beach! 10, man, that's the number. 10 chipmunks twirlin' on a branch, eatin' lots of sunflowers on my uncle's ranch. You know that old children's tale from the sea. It's like you're dreamin' about Gorgonzola cheese when it's clearly Brie time, baby. Step into my office. 'Cause you're *****in' fired!

Let’s hope so. I don’t trust the war mongers one $&#@ing bit, and am so frigging tired of sending American men and women to fight, live, die and/or returned maimed only to see the winds of political change shift and their sacrifice be for naught.

Kerry's on record on this issue. You should get internet access, there's lots of stuff to read and you wouldn't be upset at poor Mike Pompeo. Personally I think Obama wanted his Tower Tehran to be in Washington.

Or--or--you commited to saving your lady and risked your own life in the process. You're a damn hero. She's lucky to have you.

You lanced a boil in a hotel in Boston? Definitely not wise but major props in the “self sufficient” category. Glad you both made it through, that is some serious stuff to deal with.

California was beautiful when I visited a couple decades ago. Loved it, though I had no desire to relocate, I certainly planned on visiting again. Much of what has been posted of late seems to be supported by links, no? The mayor of a town in Cali says x. The city of SF is surcharging residents and shops owners to beautify the streets by removing the crap weekly as opposed to the more traditional once per month $#it-steam cleaning. The links suggest a declining population and a rise in homelessness. It’s great that the food is good, but I get good food most of the places I travel. It’s great that you can watch the Bills with other fans, but again, that’s pretty much a thing everywhere. I don’t really see it as Cali v NY, but your perception seems to be that posters here are $#&ting on the Bay Area. Perhaps your energy might better be directed at...well, the people who are quite literally $#&ting on San Fran, or the people who might stop it?

I thought you were implying I was a good dancer, which was nice. This whole cow altar thing makes me feel like you weren't complimenting me. Worst. Insult. Ever!

it's ok Gary, kneel at the altar of Lisa Page.

But why Gary..why do you accept the narrative from a Lisa Page? She's a coward of the worst type. An entrenched government pseudo-intellectual caught with her hand in the cookie jar conspiring to undermine a president. The fact that the cookie jar was in Peter Strozk's gym shorts is part of the problem, but it's her problem. Now she's decided to embark on path of perpetual victimization because she's a female? I am always amazed how weak some of these people are when the walls close in, and how some people are willing to enable them for political gain. Somehow, she managed to handle under-grad, law school at Ohio State, several years as a federal prosecutor---where she most certainly squeezed/cajoled/pressured/reduced people to her chosen lowest common denominator---goes on to be a member of the FBI, plays a protracted game of hide the bureaucratic sausage with her co-conspirator while dreaming of changing the trajectory of the free world and ends up just another disgraced attorney.

This can be said as fact: That is one Mofokeng Hot take.

Action: marked for death. keep screwface, because them have two heads and four eyes ******* Romantic Comedy: deep throat. keep, well, obviously we know who to keep.

From the article: "What I’ve seen is that while there continue to be all kinds of harms associated with drug possession and use, it’s also the case that we have created—in an effort to deal with what amounts to a public health problem—we have created an even bigger problem. A justice problem and its form of a health problem." Yes..it's a 'we' problem. Of course it is, Mayor Pete. The hundreds of millions of Americans who somehow, as if by magic, avoided the pitfalls of buying illicit drugs on a street corner from a guy named Scubby 2Rox are the real problem. In fact, let's sit in judgement of the non-meth heads and expunge the criminal records of the drug crazed hordes. Why on earth would we want the non-meth-heads to know someone may have been incarcerated for a drug crime? What is there to be afraid of? I say we decriminalize crime entirely.

I did not! Thanks!

One last part. My friend's mom was his sister. She was awesome--funny, tough, strong Bronx accent. We used to see her fairly often, couple times a year. She liked me for whatever reason, and usually greeted me the same way each time I saw her. "Hey...Buffalo!". ?

I lived in lower Hudson valley in the early 80s-90s. I didn’t think he was funny really at all, but put the “Nappy headed hos” comment in the context of a poor attempt at humor. As I recall, they had a bit going and it was supposed to be edgy, and it was. Too edgy, mean spirited but I would be surprised if he thought any more than “this should get a laugh”. When you pay a guy to be controversial, and the whole point is pushing boundaries, it happens. It’s not at all surprising he would look foolish in a panel discussion with collegiate athletes trying to defend some dopey thing he said. He had as much of a chance beating them one-on-one. given the current state of the world and what can be said/done/implied by all manner of celebrity on air or via Twitter, it’s fair to say he was just ahead of his time.

I mentioned a while back that I met George Carlin. A close friend was his nephew, and he and his wife surprised me for a birthday with front row/ meet and greet. We were at a small club in Ct, GC comes out, starts his show and waves to our friends. After the show, we navigate through a strip club next door to get backstage. Very nice guy, told me how “backstage via strip club” was much more the norm of his life than Radio City Musical Hall. Probably not a surprise, but he was Mensa-level genius. My wife met him a couple times (I was out of town the first time), spent several hours walking Atlantic City boardwalk. Good guy. The other thing—sent his family Holiday cards. One year, he sent a photo of his dog humping his cat with the caption “PIECE!”. One of my favorites of all time.

Everything I ever needed to know I learned from Sam Kinison.
