  1. Escobar, Casper Melanoma, some chubbo wearing Greg Brady's bad luck tiki and Tommy from Goodfellas in this massive open body of water and they are close enough to press tater tots. That's just weird, and they should all be indicted for assaulting my eyes. They can throw the book at the rhino too as far as I'm concerned.
  2. I think that line is from a song she sang: From a distance You look like my friend, even though we are at war. From a distance, I cannot comp-re-hend why you would slam your dick in a door.
  3. I'm not sure what facade I can't see through, but I suppose that's the nature of a facade. If he's welcomed at the facility, and JA enjoys the interaction, what's the beef? He's a HOF qb, with experience in 4 SB, with a background that includes youthful arrogance, maturation as football player, some very unfortunate personal family health issues, reaching the (near pinnacle) of the NFL and experience with media/pressure/fans/football that few possess. If JA is the qb we hope he can become, time with JK will do him no harm. Personally, I'd think his feedback on things he might have done differently as a player is where the benefit lies.
  4. I always heard: runnin down a dream num-uh-nomma mystery and lost interest. His dream should be to learn to enunciate.
  5. Ha! Thats is why I would go, it would be epic, Mr. Smartest Person in the Room*!!! *updated so as not to offend liberals
  6. My burden is I like "True Colors" version by PC...and the original by Cyndi Laup(n)er. I also like "Last Dance with Mary Jane" by TP, not much else, but would definitely go to see him if he ever toured again.
  7. That's a question worth asking. Boat sees it as political maneuver that allows the dems to walk back to some reasonable level. I think the liberal wing of the dem party thinks it's entirely reasonable for a woman to terminate a pregnancy from conception to crowning, no questions asked, taxpayer dime and no cost to the woman. I think some would go farther than that if allowed. I hope I'm wrong.
  8. Guilty, but you had mentioned the commentary about Markle and referenced "more locker room talk" which I took as a comment re: Access Hollywood Tape. The bigger issue was context re: things people say and the subsequent spin. I just wondered if there was common ground to find, but there appears not to be.
  9. The issue is context, and no, of course I don't advocate sexual assault, nor do I see any scenario where he did. The context, imo, is that people talk the way he did in that case, that it's not at all uncommon, and that there are certainly women in the world who would be agreeable to that sort of contact from a wealthy/powerful/celebrity. It's not limited to men, or women, or man to woman or woman to man. I'm only saying it because it's the truth. Hell, one of the most famous families of the last 20 years got started with a relationship to a homicide and a mom releasing a sex tape of her daughter. Yet, in a dialogue with a trump hater, you get the obligatory "it's assault and do you support sexual assault?" follow up because they disregard context because it suits the agenda. Was it vulgar? Absolutely. I think most most people hold their noses at certain times when it comes to politics. I just don't see any reason to pretend they don't because someone is offended by something someone said a decade ago, and said offense posturing.
  10. I don't judge, too much downside. I had actually typed in Ted Bundy before realizing something seemed not quite right.
  11. Well, on this note, I like to ask folks about things like "locker room talk" and context. 1. Is there such a thing as "locker room talk"? 2. Was what he said untrue of some women?
  12. Bob Seger. The path to enlightenment and the Dalai Lama. Al Bundy. Chicago Cubs lore. Herschel Walker. Bill Buckner. Eternal damnation. And thats just on one page. A Bills fans heart is a deep ocean.
  13. I don't know where you practice your law stuff but I'll tell you this--I believed you when you said it was constitutional, and believe you now when you say it wasn't. I guess it's both.
  14. Ah-i needed a lawyer one time about 20 years ago for an allegation by a former employee. It was a baseless claim, brought by an unscrupulous individual who was no longer an employ because, well, she lacked ethical clarity in her life. Ultimately, i prevailed but it cost me quite a bit of money when I had very little to spare. Very stressful as well. Yeah, give me the attorney who is state of the art current every time.
  15. Can you explain in a way that makes it both unconstitutional and an act of treason? That's the money shot.
  16. At the risk of hounding you on this issue, people are crazy. They kill other people, it happens everyday. If there is an option to terminate a pregnancy as the child is being born, people will do it, doctors will perform the procedure and off they go. Not all people, not most people...but then again all/most people don't kill other people but we still have laws that address those that do. i understand the feelings on religious extremists, but in this case, they choose life, while the other crazies are pretty much demanding death on demand AND taxpayer funding to carry it out. Good call on cuomo--we agree there. Have a good day.
  17. I guess I don't see it as an exception, and feel I have as much right to an opinion as anyone else. I think we allow it to be treated as an exception, which in and of itself is a problem. On this issue, I have been educated. I used to tell my children that at some point in a pregnancy, almost everybody is pro-life and comfortable suggesting the termination of a pregnancy would be horrific. I was wrong.
  18. I'm not looking to argue with you, but imo you seem to be normalizing the abhorrent. I get your perspective on the extremism of right and left wing politics, and on many other issues we would probably agree. However, the dynamic here is that the right wing view is "Give every child a chance at life" while the liberal side is "a person has a right to terminate the life of a human being up to and including as that child enters the world, and perhaps for a period of time thereafter." That constitutes political posturing and digging in for a fight? To to draw a parallel, would it be acceptable for the border security crowd to suggest "Shoot on sight" as a starting point to negotiate with the open borders crowd, and wash the White House in pink to celebrate? This is isn't a negotiating tactic on the left, they are literally telling you who they are.
  19. Other than what Mueller said personally on this subject specifically, I think Buftex has a point. Had Mueller actually said anything other than what he actually did, it would seem he was saying something he did not. In other words, sometimes you have to dig a little bit more to make the hole deeper.
  20. This is being reported by Fox News? I'm thrilled with the news while being furious at being manipulated by hatemongers and realize as I contemplate the accuracy of the reports and that this is yet another sign in the march towards fascism. If not Maddow or Lemon, exactly who(m) is going to report that Trump rejects an orderly transition of power by seizing control of the military when President-Mayor Pete is elected in 2020??
  21. Recognizing the collusion angle was "crap" means you're halfway there. You need to do some work on the fundamentals of our justice system to understand why your comment below makes you appear unprepared to engage in serious debate on this issue: Evidence showed that he was clearly not innocent of all charges (forget the collusion crap) of obstruction
  22. Settle down Spazzy Spice, you took a reasonable reply and spitballed it into some form of Tiberion gibberish. A better question is how can you support a Kamala Harris who slandered an honorable public servant like Brett Kavanaugh?
  23. If we're just throwing #### at the wall, gosh, you make it sound like you hate Miley Cyrus AND Captain Crunch!
  24. I considered voting for Biden instead of Trump had Biden entered the race. It would have been a "hold your nose" moment for me as his record after 5 decades in the public eye can best be described as vanilla pudding on a tapestry of beige, though his boss gave him a shiny merit badge along the way. Clinton was a bad candidate, and she was unlikable to boot. Biden is a bad candidate (not McCain bad but up there) but there are times when he seems likable enough. You know one thing that really bothered me about Biden? He remarked about how Obama offered his financial assistance in the midst of his sons illness. Biden professed to being touched (emotionally, not in the Crazy Uncle Joe reacharound way), then went on to suggest he and Jill would he ok, they would "sell the house". How in the name of God does the father of an Attny General and 4 decade long senator who became VP of the country need to "sell the house" to cover the financial interests of his late son's family? No savings, no benefits, no frigging life insurance? This sounds very troubling to me, either they were piss-poor planners, fly by the seat of their pants people, or he was playing a huge sympathy card. To be honest, I think he is full of sh8t on this issue. I think he would say or do anything politically to gain an edge. He has some history here dating back to the death of his wife and child where he was alleged to have changed some of the facts of the accidnt to appeal to voters. That's not to say he didn't grieve for his son, I just think he's the consummate politician.
