Trump stinks. Stay upwind my friends.
Thank you President Trump for:
“Respond intelligently even to unintelligent treatment.”
–Lao Tzu
Dear Mr/Ms Pear
From your post, it looks like even you can't think of anything to praise him for. Thank you for that moment of refreshing honesty.
Peace
Mr. Pear.
How do you tell gender on a pear? Are you sure you aren't transitioning from a peach? That would explain a lot!
Which is why "Passionate Prune" is a better name for him/her.
Couldn't we just call him "Passionfruit", for short?
You may.
I don't know if there is much passion left at Prunie's age. I think my own is back in the Reagan era someplace.
Works for me.
Have you forgotten your biology, stamens and stigmas?
Not Obama
Politico has an interesting take on the Syria missile strike, from Obama administration types:
Many of the most head-snapping comments I heard came from Obama’s own top advisers, who had long pushed him to confront Assad more aggressively and viewed his 2013 refusal to take military action against Syria after drawing a “red line” on chemical weapons use as a major American foreign policy debacle. There’s no love lost for Trump in this group, whose members found themselves in the uncomfortable position of cheering a leader they still both loathe and fear.
“Our administration never would have gotten this done in 48 hours,” one former senior official of the Obama administration told me. “It’s a complete indictment of Obama.”
“I feel like finally we have done the right thing,” Anne-Marie Slaughter, who served as Obama’s first-term chief of policy planning at the State Department and long publicly urged a more forceful response to Assad’s horrific attacks on civilians during the six years of war that have wracked Syria, told me. “The years of hypocrisy just hurt us all. It undermined the U.S., it undermined the world order.”

Doesn't it bother you that Richard Spencer and the right wing nationalists in your party are criticizing your leader while Dems are commending him?
Why would that bother me?
I don't know who Richard Spencer is and while we may or may not share some ideas, like most people we probably don't share some others.
I believe there are many rational Dems.
Some read Pols and used to contribute but have been turned off by the name calling and personal insults.
It would be better for Pols if they returned.
At last, we struck back at the Butcher of Bowling Green!

Have you noticed that even the Trump trolls have a certain odiferous quality?
They do make amusing squawking noises, however.
Peace
Certainly Goebbels boy has a strong odor about him. If only he could get Trump to bathe before Carnholio kisses his ass, the odor problem might be managable. But when your name is Carnholio, I guess your destiny is clear..

Thanks, looks like a great podcast.
When the Kentucky Coal Mining Museum goes south on you, perhaps the 'coal is going to Make America Great Again' slogan needs a re-think? Perhaps you could put Jared and his American Innovation Team on that, stat?

I saw that this morning, Michael. I laughed! Then I showed it to Karen and she laughed.
"In the abundance of
watersunshine, thefoolFossilonianisis trapped in a dark shaft." –Bob MarleyFort Collins voters – turn your ballot in. It's too late to mail it. You're voting for mayor, city council, and a couple of city charter rules.
To date, only 15% of eligible voter's ballots have been returned. Don't miss a chance to make your city a better place.
For those looking for something positive & pleasant – I'm putting up articles of 2 participants at Eurovision each day going forward. Today – Albania & Armenia (both really good).
How about a positive note for Cory Gardner for calling out DHS for their wanting to unmask an anonymous source in the dept calling out problems?
It can be a golf clap.
Talk is cheap.
David:
Welcome back.
You were missed.
I can't believe you're still here – the absolute crap everyone piles on you is ridiculous. Keep up the good fight!
I disagree David, ACHole works very hard to deserve the crap we give him because that is what he does for a living.
Afterall, he puts a professional sheen on the Trump Turds he is constantly polishing.
We all have a calling, and that is the one he has chosen.
He's no Cynthia Thielen…
"It's like you found a finger in your chili, but you keep eating the chili because you told everyone how much you loved it".
When Rex Tillerson gets to Moscow this week, do you think Putin is going to ask him to give back his Order of Lenin medal in light of the missile strike in Syria?
I think he gives it back about the same time Obama returns the Nobel Peace Prize. Just sayin'.
So, Comrade, you say both men earned their medals, Tillerson for aiding Mother Russia and Obama for aiding all humanity? I agree.
Trump's worst week yet – Palmer report
4 things that make it Trump's worst week yet, even though media giddily hails him as now "Presidential" for bombing Syrian runways.
1. Devin Nunes can no longer run interference on Russia – Trump investigation, as he has lost all credibility.
2. Acting AG Dana Boente at DoJ has signalled that he is not a Trump loyalist.
3. The Jared Kushner / Steve Bannon conflict has blown up and Bannon is now out of the NSC briefings (yay!) but Jared's in ? (only if he can get around requirement to disclose his extensive contacts with Russian officials)
4. The Syrian airstrike has been revealed as a fraud; it only took out planes and fueling stations, which are readily replaced. The airstrips were not targeted, and were in use the next day. So if this was an elaborate double feint to show Trump as "Presidential" and "Willing to take on Putin", it is a big F A I L.
