Absolutely. Unbelievably bad yesterday, with SH injured to boot.

There is a lot of rage in this little manifesto of yours, and lost in your tirade is the fact that virtually everything you wrote is in dispute. Have a cup of tea, it will help to calm you down.

Not the Mongols, come on! Is no one safe from identity politics?

DR is The Nudnik Whisperer. And yes, he does say things. Very true, efficiently written.

We also know that investigators are human, some lie, some bluff, some are political and some are crooked. We know that people will flip to save their own skin, and we know that people will manufacture testimony to save themselves. It's a clister*****, plain and simple, and when all is said and done, it's virtually impossible to survive an all-out assault by the government with unlimited resources, no parameters as to who can investigate despite partisan tendencies, and a mandate that can best be summarized as "go find something somewhere.". On the plus side, watching a steady parade of nudniks stream in and out with commentary like "Nobody knows nothing they don't already know!" Is priceless.

****.

in your scenario, the better solution would be to build a wall between civic government and...people. your crusade, insofar as your comments on this message board are concerned, just pays homage to a different god. all the telltale signs of zealotry are there, and it's fascinating that you can't see it. I suppose that's just the nature of being a zealot.

Why would someone need a splinter in the eye for supporting DJT?

This is the sort of thing the Unibomber used to write about back when he was just Teddy from the block.

President argues for equal application of justice. He's a law and order guy, and surely everyone agrees that's good for America.

In the calm light of day, the guy had a shot to catch it but didn't. It's a shame, it was a beautifully chaotic thing to watch unfold, and it sure would have been exciting for the rookie to win one like that.

The league is to blame for certain. High def television is to blame in part as well. Fan expectation is part of the problem. However, in a game with 20+ flags thrown, it's hard to reconcile the tackle up at the helmet on JA and the pass int missed on the Zay drop near the end. The flags were thrown at a rate of one every 3 minute of football. They were calling the game tightly (which should never need to be said) why keep the flags in the pocket on the last series? This was a bad crew yesterday. There are bad teams, there are bad crews, I've never understood why some folks (not you in this case) feel that should be glossed over. Add in the allegation that one of the officials was jawing with Jerry Hughes, it's part of the overall product.

Interestingly, there are only three variations in use in this country today. The British have 5, 6 if you include the old "scratching at the lice under the periwig" trick, but you don't see that much these days.

Thanks for the follow up Boyst. I'm always amazed by how many folks who pursue higher education aren't all that smart, fair-minded or both. I wonder what his feeling might be if his father faced similar accusations and the hospital wanted to disassociate with him? Out of an abundance of caution, just to be respectful to all involved.

Serious question. Did the renowned forensic psychologist offer an opinion on what the appropriate response would be to be accused of attempted rape, organizing gang sexual assault parties and having ones life ripped to shreads in a choreographed national spectacle? A knowing nod? A vigorous but not-too-aggessive shaking of one's head? The pensive bite on the frame of the eyeglass? He handled the usual political back stabbing, innuendo, and posturing with a smile and a nod, but I guess I'm at a loss as to what one should say or do when forces from inside the government conspire to destroy you in front of the world? Personally I think the George McFly "You get your damn hands off her" reply is not strong enough. I always wonder what the people/mind experts think, often followed up with "these people are so full of $#!t it isn't funny". I

I'd say fabricating a story about the lawfully appointed AG constitutes news most would consider fake. So, either the Post story was intentional, or their sources and vetting suck something awful. Either way, Trump speaks the truth on this issue.

My memory for games from the past is pretty bad, though I remember that. You get 4 downs, one of which is used to guve the ball to your opponent if you don't do a good job moving the ball on the first three. Life goes on.

After dinner, did he tell you to fly..fly away little Clarice...? The only way that's not weird is if your name is Clarice Boyst.

I have a much larger issue with the Bush family. Their reaction to attacks (retaliatory, preemptive whatever) on Jeb the Docile were understandable. However, I would assume the friendship with Clinton and Obama Inc would not be possible if they viewed those relationships in the same context. Those individuals ripped, scraped, tore and clawed at the eyes of their other son, leaving a scorched earth in their wake, accusing him of crimes against humanity and of sacrificing American lives for a phony war based on manufactured evidence. Somehow that all seems ok now. Michele an W are fast friends now. Bush the elder and Bill the Humidor guy were part of a coalition of old guys who get each other, maybe brought together by a shared interest in young woman they might put their hands on. So, my read is pretty simple. Establishment is establishment, and you can say whatever you want about whomever you want, because their personal and political ambitions differ slightly but meet in the middle on what can best be illustrated on a Venn diagram of corruption. I voted for both bush, then more bush, but by the time Jen came along, I realized that sometimes too much bush can be a bad thing. I feel dirty just typing this but more the life of me don't know why. That said..HW was unfairly characterized as a wimp, and his service record was impeccable.

Fair assessment. Tom's response really made me laugh, and thought you took the shot quite well.

You were home schooled?

At that time the Russians were not the enemy because Clinton was going to be elected president.

There are Russians in Miami, friend. We'll be watching.

Well, you answered pretty directly. Logic's earlier reference to "smoke" was pretty clearly the set up to his next post which will enlighten all on the "fire". Because, obviously, Russian meddling could only lead to Trump being elected. It's been written and said by so many, for so long, it's either that or yet another campaign of disinformation by members of the opposition party and certain members of the media. As the Russians invented this whole game just a couple short years ago, that simply cannot be true. Come to think of it, Rasputin is murdered, Princess Anastasia allegedly reappears decades later..then 60+ million vote for Trump. How can that be a coincidence? I'm on the edge of my seat.

I'd point to Uber and Lyft as a recent example of government intervention. Taxi =fees, insurance, inspections, medallions, disclosure to pick up passenger A and deliver him to location X. With Uber, that which revolutionized the quick hit transportation gig...= little regulation, little oversight and a whole lot less money to play in the game...all while delivering passenger A and delivering him to location X. The separate & distinct argument that the taxi experience largely sucks aside...it's all about the way the government pulls the levers. It's all about the haves and have nots, and if the government casts a benevolent gaze you way, you soon sit on piles of money.
