The purpose of this thread is to provide a virtual “room” for those who want to attack each other verbally, and for those who find this virtual blood sport to be entertaining.
The rest of us, who like to discuss politics with varying degrees of civility and a spectrum of opinions don’t have to have every topic thread cluttered up by your personal feuds.
So have at it, folks.
I don't want to talk to you no more, you empty headed animal food trough wiper!…… I fart in your general direction! . Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!
"You look like a rube. A well scrubbed, hustling rube with a little taste. Good nutrition has given you some length of bone, but you’re not more than one generation from poor white trash, are you ?"
Unpopular Opinion –
Brian Cox was a far better Hannibal Lecter than Anthony Hopkins.
Good thread! To no one in particular:
It was called the jumpoline before your momma used it.
May your socks be permanently damp.
I never forget a face, but in your case I'll make an exception.
He was a man of splendid abilities, but utterly corrupt. He both shines and stinks like rotten mackerel by moonlight.
–John Randolph
Have we knowledge of to whom he was referring?
It's often said to be his arch enemy, henry clay. But actually a now obscure politician, Edward Livingston, according to Randolph’s biographer./p>
Now don't be knockin' Henry….he brought the Mint Julep to DC!
Some years ago, an ex-girl friend gave me "The Book of Poisonous Quotes." It was a gag gift as we remain close friends. I can go on all day, but here are two from the Politics section, picked at random:
1) "A politician is an animal that can sit on the fence and keep both ears to the ground." (H. L. Mencken)
2) "Suppose you were an idiot, and suppose you were a member of Congress, but I repeat myself." (Mark Twain)
Thanks, MJ!
Finally, a place to call home!
“If ignorance ever goes to $40 a barrel, I want drilling rights to George Bush’s head.” – the
late,great Jim HightowerI think Jim Hightower is still living. You may be thinking of his wife who passed away last year.
Yes…he's still very much alive (thanks to his 'hemp for breakfast' regimen!)
I think you mean "regimen", not "regiment," though I'll join his army.
LOL. Yes, and fixed
Don't blame that mistake on my great East Yuma RJ-2 education!
Yup. Jim Hightower's still alive. Thanks for correcting , chb and mb.
Now, actually, that is funny.
As I just now said, . . .
. . . there’s a stupid schmuck born every minute, of seventy or so years ago, who will be utterly unable to contain his (or his) insults to just one diary!
This site needs another “insult” thread like we need another old fart.
