"you people" start looking at democrat fat cats like Soros and Gates

and several others.....then I"m in .....

without that....this is as useless as a bookshelf at Corky's house.

Great idea for an honest conservative investigative journalism outlet. Maybe the WSJ. (Chuckle.)

Or maybe it's just nowhere near the same -- and even conservatives who aren't wrapped up in a dream world, if there are any, know there's nothing there.

Are bats particularly toothsome? Any good DR recipes?

I wonder what the result would be if Musk/Trump came out and said all necessary DOGE savings would be used to fund an excellent program of prenatal-to-grave health care.

If only someone could convince Trump he'd be wildly popular with a new demographic.

And that it has an outside chance of moving him off the bottom of the presidential ratings.

At least she was quiet.

All that Biden let in was the scum of the earth and you didn't complain so STFU.

You got the data on that, other than Gracie's crime reports?

How many immigrants came in who committed no crimes but contributed plenty to the economy of their own household, not to mention repatriating money to their home country?

Are you doing even the first of those? Maybe mowing lawns? Taking out the trash when your big brother won't do it?

People who are broke do not invest in anything.

People who are been broke have motivations to earn to invest. How much money did your forebears have when they arrived here?

And people who come in rich are more likely to continue looting the system.

Trump will probably market Gold Cards minted with Fort Knox gold, and no MAGAt will say boo.

Your MOM.

Last post before heading off to 7th grade?

They're just trying to UP the caliber of immigrants these days. People who can give back.

Sure, rich foreigners are doing great things for the US these days. Just look at DC.

I'd rather have young, highly educated foreigners, or hardworking middle-class wannabes who just want to live a life free of violence and oppression, although for the time being they may not have made the best choice of location.

Communists, no doubt.

We all question why the US is counted on to [be] the world's policeman.

Because since 1919 or so the US has always wanted to play that role.

"Othering"

Good luck explaining that one to the MAGAts.

Is "Crenshaw" Esperanto for "every thinking human"?

They should get Putin in there for a menage a toes.

Democrat politicians continue to try to politicize everything, and the public is sick of it. We want a degree of balance. There has rarely been any effort to remove politics from the arts.

Former Republican presidents managed to treat the Kennedy Center honors as they should be.

And when a president's idea of culture is "Ave Maria," "My Way," the Village People, Mein Kampf, and gold-plated toilets, maybe it is best just to close it down for a while.

Good protein.

8. GWBush's brush clearing was all staged. There apparently was one little patch of greenery they kept taking him back to for photo ops.

I always loathed Reagan and still do, but at least when he was on his ranch, when he was healthy, he was actually clearing trails.

I think its just a troll by the current administration, but the employees being told not to respond may be reaction this administration was looking for.

So trolling has become a gauge for popular perception and subsequent policy decisions. Great way to govern.

52. I don't think Laura is here to make this subject more interesting for you. Just guessing.

Copying and pasting other people's quotes and videos doesn't work for you because you don't have enough background or personal experience.

You are judgmental to a bizarre extreme. What's your opinion on grace?

Ed Sanders? The Fugs' Ed Sanders?

Well . . . one more, then back to work.

I've never tried to figure it all out -- and after five or six decades I've not been curious enough to look up the lyrics -- but I don't believe the words "murder mystery" are uttered here, among the four different voices.

Mo Tucker sounding intriguing as always.

Velvet Underground, "The Murder Mystery":

That said, I do agree with you that the mysteries are being revealed to us over time.

I'm just telling you what I read. I don't agree or disagree. I'm a dispassionate though because of my work very curious observer.

One might say I'm agnostic, but like "bisexual," lots of folks don't like to hear that word.

Jefferson Airplane, "The Ballad of You and Me and Pooneil"

[in honor of Fred Neil]

"After the Gold Rush": Parton, Ronstadt, Harris

(get past the first minute of Letterman jabbering, and it's incredibly beautiful)

Stones, "Sympathy for the Devil."
