I served in the USAF under Lyndon Johnson and Richard Nixon. Johnson was the more honorable of the two; but Nixon was a Navy veteran, and in spite of being a corrupt -------, was no traitor. I did my time, got a SEA returnee early-out from active duty, and upon completion of my inactive reserve duty, got an Honorable Discharge. Now it's getting to fifty years later, and I have doubts anything I did in uniform was worth it. However, I went back to college using the Vietnam G.I. Bill, and the VA covers my healthcare needs for free, so there's that.

I honestly believed Trump Tower was enjoying some phase of foreclosure.

Trumpy is a special kind of fool. He believes what isn't true and refuses to believe what is true.

Right you are, DONNERBOY. Trump is not only a special kind of fool, he is a dangerous fool because he has followers.

"I'd like to see much stronger push-back from mainstream Republicans"

Of course you would. Many, if not most liberals would.

But no republican is going to cross Trump if it's going to cost them re-election and that's what many of them fear. They certainly aren't going to speak out against Trump to please a group of people who aren't going to vote for them anyway.

I think that is what frustrates so many on the left. They expect anybody who is appalled by Trump to say so but nobody is going to cut their own throat, politically, just to satisfy people who don't support them regardless.

so.....silence is the lesser of 2 evils.

Recently, Little Marco Rubio stood up on his hind legs in opposition to a position of Lord Dampnut, his master to whom he is enthralled. Little Marco will be repudiating that idea in 3...2...

The suggested Constitutional Amendment is not necessary, as people who refuse to wear masks for whatever reason will be culled soon, anyway. I see them mostly in grocery stores and gas stations, which as an old guy are the only places I go when I am not sequestering in place with my similarly old wife of many years. I get cash from an ATM, and our pension and SS checks are deposited automatically.

#6 Sycophant, you're right, of course; but in addition it ought to be pointed out Lord Dampnut wins an asterisk in EVERY aspect of Presidential behavior.

When the remaining kops figure out (or have explained to them in re-training) how civil rights work, they'll be fine.

Congratulations, Malala. Good on you!

Hoping, wishing and or wanting the death of a politician much less a sitting president was a no no on this site, or so I thought. Can't set that bar any lowers, can you, you compassionate libs?

How's this instead..."Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?" -- Richard II

"...With extreme prejudice" -- CIA ----- in "Apocalypse Now!"

Old joke:
A speaker is talking about sex habits before a crowd, and he asks:
How many people have sex every day? A few people raise their hands.
Then he asks, "How many people have sex every week?" A few more people raise their hands.
Then he asks, "How many of you have sex every month?" A few people raise their hands.
Finally he asks "How many people have sex once a year? One guy jumps up waving his whole arm. The speaker asks, "What's up?" The guy hollers, "Tonight's the night!"
Thank you. Tip your server. I'll be here all week.

"COPS" gave us "Stop resisting" as a common kkkop addition to the lexicon.

Screenshots of angry White Trumpers usually lead to unemployment and shunning by decent folks. Post ALL the videos on Facebook, STAT!

Sometimes when I stoop, a mask-wearing neighbor will wander over. We sit on opposite ends of the step of the stoop at about 5 feet apart. We hope the masks will mitigate that missing foot.

115,000+

I am waiting for NATO to tell America to go home. American weapons are not the best; they're only the most expensive.

Hummer, I take it the heat are not arrayed in multiple rows across the streets in YOUR neighborhood, amirite? Until that day when you're bopped on the head by a kkkop, you don't know anything.

My wife and I are about to enter our fourteenth week of sheltering in place. Local grocery stores have hours reserved for old people. There's been another 10,000 deaths added to the total so far this week.

Trump is lying about everything. I listened to/watched Candycorn Skidmark's presser today. I confess, I turned it off and went back to the slideshow on the ROKU home page after one-half hour. Short-fingered Vulgarian was repeating himself and his speech was slurred. Trump's handlers have apparently discovered precisely how much Adderall he can ingest and remain upright.

I gave up on the Internet today after watching those pig-kkkops knock down that old man. I am having difficulty wrapping my brain around that particular horrow. That old man could be me if I went downtown and joined a street protest. No thanks.

I am registered to vote, and that's my plan for the future; if we can still vote in November.

Interesting looking at the pictures of this "event".

Out of all the "senior staff" walking to the church, Ivanka was the only one wearing a mask. She was also the only one carrying a shopping bag.

Well, I thought it was interesting.

Cut Ivanka some slack...maybe she just wanted to score a free Bible and Hymnal.

#1.... I love this description of 45.

There are many more...

Short-fingered Vulgarian
Fat Elvis
Candycorn Skidmark

There are more, obviously...I want to let others have the fun of posting their favorite! Let's see what you got!

I predict the cops will be receiving return fire before too long. I am an old, so I will watch the carnage from the comfort of my home office in the Interwebs or on the couch in front of my teevee, thank you very much!

The cops haven't been arrested yet. Doesn't mean they won't be. Peaceful protest everyday until they are. You don't need to burn down your own city, destroying businesses owned by your fellow citizens.

Dear Gal Tuesday,

The protestors and rioters have in common they are poor and if they're working or formerly working, they frequently get jobs not many people, unless they were desperate, would perform. If you own nothing, you got nothing to lose.

Best,

#12 My respect for that office died the day Trump walked into it. He inflicts great harm upon this nation and its citizens on a daily basis. The day he dies should be a national holiday. It will be in my house.

I fondly remember the NIXON IS DEAD parties! Wow...the happy memories.

I admit I cannot get into professional baseball. In 1958, I went on a YMCA adventure, where we all went to a Milwaukee Braves game at County Stadium...cost for bus ride there and back, a hot dog and Coke, and admission to the bleachers? $5.00! Today five Ameros won't buy the hot dog!

I'm not so sure about Big Mike being the worst. There is Henry Kissinger, war criminal...

#12 | Posted by catdog at 2020-05-28 09:23 AM

Henry Kissinger is still drawing breath? War criminal Henry Kissinger likely can NEVER go abroad again if there are warrants for his arrest, and I believe there are such warrants. H.K. in an orange jumpsuit and irons is a great mind-image. Too bad his co-conspirator, NIXON is already dead!

No problem...I could NEVER afford to visit the Magic Kingdom, anyway. I enjoyed watching Annette grow up on the original Mickey Mouse Club, by the way!
