  1. Have been posting in response... to lies by Trump and his administration. Now realize that it is literally a 24/7 job. No longer a question of simply exposing the lie of the day, but actually having to select the most outrageous one.... from a pack of them. We now have Republicans of every stripe, resembling pretzels and clothes dryers, in trying to justify this stuff. FDR's 100 Days.....this aint. But it may go down in history, anyways....
  2. In the immortal words of Wille Cicci "Oh yeah, a buffer. The family had a lot of buffers!"
  3. Trump has already done a pretty good job of making key allies like UK, Germany, and Japan.....nervous and confused. Every time Trump or this administration says anything.....they need to wait to see if they can "take it literally", or consult a seer or Cudgee board, in order to formulate any answers. To say nothing of Israel (one or two nation solution? or the Chinese, given the conflicting statements about Taiwan...... Ignorance and bluster is the stock in trade, here.
  4. Anyone watch the Sean Spicer Filibuster, today? Shape shifting, spinning. shuffling, channel changing, deflections, and deliberate obtuseness.....delivered rapid fire and non-stop, in a attempt to simply bewilder, exhaust or simply wear out the press gallery. A real trooper. Just don't attempt to apply any logic or rationality to any of it. This stuff transcends any of that.
  5. On the bright side, in taking a closer look at the proposed Trump budget....plenty of useless entities would be cut. Arts including PBS funding Foreign Aid Diplomatic Service (State Department) Science programs and research Environmental protection Social programs for the working poor Agriculture - rural development and research grants Education - federal work-study aid to college students, grants for teacher training, after-school and summer programs, and aid programs to first-generation and low-income students Grant programs to state and local agencies, including pre-disaster mitigation grants and counterterrorism funding Housing - eliminates the $3 billion Community Development Block Grant program, HOME Investment Partnerships Program, the Choice Neighborhoods program and the Self-help Homeownership Opportunity Program $35 million of funding Community Development and Affordable Housing All funding for the 49 National Historic Sites Eliminates grants for Community Development Financial Institutions, which provide financial services in economically distressed neighborhoods This is only a partial list -there is far more that I can put in this post - but you get the idea. At least the US would have more military hardware, perhaps a bigly wall, and more rent-a-cops to push immigrants around. You know, the things that really count. Trump Banana Republic
  6. He may not have to. There are enough deluded and (quite possibly) armed folks out there. As in at least 22,105.
  7. Riders fans have 220 page thread on Young, and a 140 pager on Franklin. The wishful thinking is strong.
  8. Your cabinet post awaits.....
  9. Other than past performance, his age, time away from the game, and off field judgement.......plenty of upside here
  10. Hey, he is only Trump's top counter-terrorism adviser........not sure what the concern would be.
  11. ....or he pulls a Vince Young..
  12. Another enlightened Republican on the Hill: Iowa Rep. Steve King http://www.cnn.com/2017/03/14/politics/kfile-steve-king-prediction/index.html
  13. Real bold stance when Buff has a no move clause, the next 2 years.....
  14. ...as long as he doesn't start slobbering up Green stuff....
  15. Yup and he is two years older....
  16. As far as Young ever getting back to the NFL.... Not exactly a stampede for his services. 100 other potentially washed up guys accepted for this camp. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2390889-vince-young-not-accepted-to-nfl-veterans-combine-latest-details-and-reaction
  17. Yes the DNC need to clean out some ole time hacks, right at the top (do have some new ones now) and Clinton ran a lousy campaign and plenty of the Sanders people sat it out....... But while the Dems fiddle..... you have the carpetbagger and the tea baggers, as well as Bannon, with a cabinet of billionaires hand picked to "deconstruct regulation and agencies" A potent and dangerous brew, indeed ....to say nothing of healthcare ( or the upcoming push back on it) Scott Pruit, head of EPA.... challenged its regulations in more than a dozen suits. Also thinks global warming is a hoax. Andrew Puzder nominee for Labor Secretary....., operated companies that low balled on wages and faced allegations of labor abuse. However the undocumented immigrant domestic worker in his basement, put the kibosh on his nomination Trump’s FCC Chairman Ajit Pai is known for being an outspoken critic of the net neutrality rules. Of course the FCC has the authority to block major media mergers, revoke broadcast licenses and regulate Internet providers. Rick Perry, Trump’s pick for energy secretary, proposed to eliminate the department, while running for President in 2011. National Security General Flynn.....Russiaphobe - between his junkets and covert meetings with the Russians on Ukraine and lobbing efforts with Turkey (which the WH lied about - big surprise)....was wondering when he might of spent some time on actual US security Overall, a lot of ths is not a new Republican strategy (see: Bush administration), but never implemented to this extent. In the end we know who profits (key word) from that. And no, not working class Americans.
  18. Past JM and Trouba.......we have AHL D. Another 5 goals against... ....and of course ole Buff can't make the line change with everyone else in OT, and takes the penalty.
  19. Well, the very target groups that came out in big numbers for Tumpelstiltskin .....white seniors, blue collar, poverty liners. etc......are the ones who are going to pay, in the end. Surely not bankers, big oil, big pharma, military contractors and many other corporate entities, because Trump is a man of the people - well, at least those kind of people....
  20. No, just that this particular administration has been piling up so much BS, in such a short period of time...... BTW, re: Dems......the Carter administration was a epic disaster...
  21. Yup you have to play stupid, in order to peddle this stuff....
  22. Listing to Spicer, and Conway earlier in the day (check out her babble)..... is like being trapped in a alternative universe.
  23. Just watched the latest installment of SSL. (Sean Spicer Live) A week earlier, Spicer said Trump's tweet "speaks for itself" and declined to provide any further explanation. Now Sean Spicer said Trump wasn't referring to wiretapping when he tweeted about wiretapping. "The President used the word wiretaps in quotes to mean, broadly, surveillance and other activities." Spicer added that Trump was not accusing Obama of personal involvement Re-read the tweets and see how this jibes..... Terrible! Just found out that Obama had my "wires tapped" in Trump Tower just before the victory. Nothing found. This is McCarthyism! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 4, 2017 Is it legal for a sitting President to be "wire tapping" a race for president prior to an election? Turned down by court earlier. A NEW LOW! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 4, 2017 How low has President Obama gone to tap my phones during the very sacred election process. This is Nixon/Watergate. Bad (or sick) guy! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 4, 2017 Any impartial observer could easily conclude that the Donald directly accused a past President of a felony, and repeated it multiple times - without a shred of evidence. FBI, Justice Department and even the Republicans on the NSC, found zippo. Today, still nothing - except for the tough guy straight shooter Trump, simply trying to spin it and weasel his way out. An apology would require just a touch of decency or class......but we are dealing with an empty vessel here. Tough for Angry Spice.... as he has to keep the massive pile of BS, stacked to the ceiling......from falling over. This administration is turning serial lying and distortion of facts (alternative) into an art form.
  24. Buff should get jail time.....for the way he is stealing the money.
  25. Eliminate "brilliant" from the list of options, and you may have something there.....
