ExiledInIllinois Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 (edited) And what, exactly, am I rationalizing? My support of Trump? I don't support Trump. My hatred of Hillary? That goes back to 1998, and has reasons that have nothing to do with this election. So what the !@#$ are you talking about? (That's a rhetorical question, please don't answer. I'm not really inclined to be psychoanalyzed via your incomprehensible blather.) You don't support him, but you voted for him. Make up your mind Sybil. Ha... Hey, at least you are on record for admitting your mental illness. The fastest way to make me ignore something is to use "it's a long read..." and "The Atlantic" in the same sentence. Exhibit A: The Twitterization of The American Right Hey Tomato Can... Keep it under 150 characters please, as executive ordered by Herr Fuhrer.

tomato can Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 The fastest way to make me ignore something is to use "it's a long read..." and "The Atlantic" in the same sentence. Haha! I should have known not to say "its a long read" but it sure as hell was. I was actually looking forward to your response to that ridiculously long article. Oh well no biggie. You don't support him, but you voted for him. Make up your mind Sybil. Ha... Hey, at least you are on record for admitting your mental illness. Exhibit A: The Twitterization of The American Right Hey Tomato Can... Keep it under 150 characters please, as executive ordered by Herr Fuhrer. LOL...I'll do my best.

DC Tom Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 You don't support him, but you voted for him. Make up your mind Sybil. Ha... Hey, at least you are on record for admitting your mental illness. And you know goddamned well that I didn't support the Yamchurian Candidate. I thought his impulsive, destructive incompetence was the best chance the country had to return to a Constitutional Republic from it's precipitous slide in to authoritarianism. That never would have happened with Hillary, because the plethora of idiots like Pasta Joe would have embraced every dictatorial move she made as beyond question. Its a long read...Thoughts anyone? https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2017/03/how-to-build-an-autocracy/513872/ It is a pretty good read. Less alarmist than most, and already prophetic in some aspects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Sack Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 The fastest way to make me ignore something is to use "it's a long read..." and "The Atlantic" in the same sentence. That's how I feel every time i come across a Tim Graham or Jerry Sullivan Bills article. For now I'm keeping to catching the Sal Capaccio updates on twitter, inbetween the Trump rants.

Thank you, Mr. President. Update: Some press were wondering why Trump’s visit was unannounced and giving him grief for “disappearing.” Here’s why he kept things quiet: Chris Jansing ✔@ChrisJansing The family of William "Ryan" Owens has asked for privacy; no press coverage.

PastaJoe Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 So it appears that Ivanka really is the First Lady. Who takes their daughter instead of his wife to such a solemn ceremony? Not Bush, Clinton, W, or Obama. Melania couldn't make the short trip to DC? Disrespectful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Florida you can marry and have kids with your first cousin.

Yeah, but that's why I am here. You can skip their posts and simoky learn something by reading mine.
