DC Tom

Y'know, if he REALLY wanted to ***** with her, he would have canceled her flight back...

So you changed it to "African American swan?"

Was it because of some bull#### about recusal, or because he refused to deny he was a sexual predator at one point in his past.

This is hilarious...and sad. Not an adult to be seen.

Leslie Parrish. Best costume, too.

It's not a difficult concept: don't buy what you don't need. Spend less than you earn. With the rest, save, then invest. And credit is not cash. It's debt against future earnings - which is useful tool, but an awful lifestyle.

Book, my ass. You stole that from Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. No ***** way you've read Dickens.

Actuslly, there is. Because this isn't about a wall, it's about who runs the country, Trump, or Pelosi and Schumer. Who all have a history of defining "compromise" as "I get what I want, and you can suck it." Neither side is compromising on that. It's a straight-up Manichaean death match.

I appreciate her honesty, though not her policy positions.

They're withholding $5B in funding that will open the government.

No, we call Trump stupid, too.

No, the issue is that neither party is interested in negotiating in good faith. Trump wants his wall. Pelosi wants him to not have it. Both sides are entrenched and intractable. Saying it's either side's fault alone is partisan bull####. No one has any room to complain: this is what you voted for. Your party making sure everything goes their way. I've been calling them children...but the fact is that kindergartners would have split the difference long ago.

So I just read that the real reason Pelosi's cancelling the SOTU is to hide Ginsburg's death and the failure of her clone to quicken... I LOVE this theory.

Of course. Her staff should inform her if she's interviewing an oppressor or the oppressed.

DR's got a conflict of interest, and must recuse himself. I nominate Robert Mueller instead. He's not doing anything terribly important right now.

I'm enjoying being a mute spectator to this beating... ?

That's too bad. An imminent RIF might have prompted the toddlers in Congress and the White House to do something.

By THIS standard, Benghazi was a crime.

And you're not going to be able to afford that, because you'll be paying inflated rates to PG&E to settle your lawsuit against them...

Except half the people in the country think this is justified on the grounds of protecting the other half the country from his Russian propaganda. On a different note, I just read that Trump approved a quarter-billion dollar bailout of US bomb makers (for the AF, Navy, and such). During a shut-down. If Democrats had ANY brains, they'd run with that story, as "Trump spent money on bombs while federal workers aren't getting paid." They'll stick with "Orange Man Bad" of course, because they're idiots.

You know who's looking less and less crazy as this develops? Ross Perot.

The problem therein is and has always been that "peace process" is nonsense. You're at peace, or you're not. If you're pursuing a "process," you're avoiding being at peace.

I was goddamned surprised the other day to see "*****" filtered. That filtered phrase being the words "god" and "damn" in sequence, separated by a space.

As would be the Clintons.

Really? You couldn't just go with "PMSNBC?" You're an idiot.
