What is the most followed NHL team in Madison (Chicago?) in Green Bay (St Paul)? in Milwaukee (Chicago?)

I plan to read the Letter to Philippians 20 times this winter, and also walk several hundred miles in sub-freezing temperatures.; ১৯/১২/১৮, ১০:১০ PM

Chuck বলেছেন...: Syria pullout clusterfuck.

"If Obama had done this, all of us would be going nuts because it's such a bad idea. The job of the Congress is to hold the executive branch accountable. He's the commander in chief, but he needs to be held accountable for his decisions. And I want hearings as soon as possible." (Senator Lindsey Graham)

Senator Corker had gone to the White House for a meeting with the President late this afternoon. Presumably after Trump had made his video announcement of the Syrian pullout. Senator Corker arrived at the White House, waited, and then was told that the meeting needed to be canceled.

White House reporters asked for an explanation; they were told to check with the DoD. They asked the DoD and they said that they had no information and to check with the White House.

Absolutely every indicator points to this being a stunt, concocted by Trump and his smallest inner circle inside the Oval Office, to distract from the budget/CR/wall debacle.; ১৯/১২/১৮, ১০:৩৬ PM
YoungHegelian বলেছেন...: If you've ever doubted that a large fraction of the MSM have just lost their fucking minds, here's a reminder. Understand, this is Brian Williams, an eminence grise of NBC, just nodding sagely along as his guest spins conspiracy theories that would make Alex Jones say "Oh, come on now!". Seriously, this must be heard/read to be believed.

The MSM & much of the Democratic "moderates" have simply lost their minds on this "Russia" business.

Via a story from Power Line, but this link at Real Clear Politics has both video & transcript.; ১৯/১২/১৮, ১০:৫৬ PM
narciso বলেছেন...: Malcolm nance, he makes Jesse Ventura seem sane
If you haven't noticed chuck the Islamic state center is no longer in Syria, now its north Africa the phillipines points all over.

Corker who pushed the Iran deal. Who wants to topple prince Salman who was behind that 500 million dollar Syrian rebel force; ১৯/১২/১৮, ১১:০৩ PM

Watched about a minute before I felt this would be 6 minutes I will never get back. How can anyone believe that Russia has more influence over U.S. voters than the stupidity we see from our own elites?; ১৯/১২/১৮, ১১:০৯ PM
YoungHegelian বলেছেন...: @narcisco,

Malcolm nance, he makes Jesse Ventura seem sane

I have no problem with having whack-job guests on, & letting them make their whack-job case.

I have a yuuuuuge problem with someone like Brian Williams just nodding along, not demanding some sort of explication, asking for sources, etc. when presented with such tin foil hat conspiracy-mongering as this.

What's next, Brian, "Today, at great risk to us here at MSNBC, we have Fred Smith, who reveals what our Reptilian Alien Overlords have in store for us all. According to Fred, it's all written down in an alien book called 'To Serve Man'."; ১৯/১২/১৮, ১১:০৯ PM
narciso বলেছেন...: Well Jesse Ventura was never sane, even on the set of predator,

How long you want to keep the troops in syria?; ১৯/১২/১৮, ১১:১০ PM

FIDO বলেছেন...: Der Spiegel had one of their best reporters, picked by CNN as 'Journalist of the Year', had been outed as someone who, like Stephen Glass, made up a lot of his news out of the whole cloth.

This means he lied, Chuck.

Little things like 'Mexicans not welcome' signs. Fraudulent victims of war. Heart pulling stuff which endorsed the Liberal narrative but was as fake as Hillary's cackle in front of a camera.

So Chuck, John Pickering, Inga, R/V, you want to know why we don't believe your news stories, your polls, your links.

THIS is why. We've had enough fake stuff all the way back to Cronkite. Brian Williams, Dan Rather, Stephen Glass, Sabrina Erdely, Journolist.

I won't say they are MORE dishonest than Trump, but they give him a run for his money.; ১৯/১২/১৮, ১১:১৫ PM
narciso বলেছেন...: As I pointed our fron the other thread, Flynn didn't even submit that OP ed,; ১৯/১২/১৮, ১১:২৫ PM

rhhardin বলেছেন...: Egbert Souse? Isn't that an odd name?
- It isn't pronounced Souse. Accent grave over the "E." Egbert "Sou-say. "; ২০/১২/১৮, ৪:৫৮ AM
chillblaine বলেছেন...: Hi, bumping my Yeti videos. Here is Yeti Comes In, and this is Yeti Three Pitch Inning.

("Trading Places" is a Christmas movie.); ২০/১২/১৮, ৫:২৭ AM
stevew বলেছেন...: Mom in law travels here from her cozy FL confines later today kicking off the Christmas season. Flight status is 'on time'. I'm working today and tomorrow but then we have a mandatory shut down next week. Honestly, I doubt much work will get done tomorrow. Other than the folks here no one of my acquaintance is talking and fussing about Russia and Syria and Flynn and walls or anything else. It just doesn't matter - unless you allow it to.; ২০/১২/১৮, ৫:২৮ AM
Rick.T. বলেছেন...: It’s officially settled. Die Hard is a Christmas movie and here’s proof from Twentieth Century Fox:

Yippee ki -yay!; ২০/১২/১৮, ৫:৪৯ AM
MadisonMan বলেছেন...: So everyone in my Facebook feed who thought Obama was the cause of the Stock Market boom last year is now blaming Trump for the Stock Market.

I'm not surprised.; ২০/১২/১৮, ৬:১৬ AM
rhhardin বলেছেন...: "2018 Winter Solstice expected to occur at same time as Full Moon and Meteor Shower"

Mathematical certainty isn't a psychological state.; ২০/১২/১৮, ৬:৪৯ AM
rehajm বলেছেন...: The world is a little better with the absence of The Weekly Standard. One down, many more to go...; ২০/১২/১৮, ৬:৫৯ AM
Hagar বলেছেন...: 2,000 US troops in the middle of Syria are hostages to fortune and it may be high time to pull them out. However, don't get giddy and celebrate just yet. It is now shaping up to a major war between alliances of states in the Middle East, and it is also high time to figure out what US policy should be when the shit really hits the fan.
And yes, we will be very much involved, one way or another. There is no escaping it.; ২০/১২/১৮, ৭:০৩ AM
Lokesh Umak বলেছেন...: I really enjoy reading your blog here. Thank you Althouse; ২০/১২/১৮, ৭:০৪ AM
Humperdink বলেছেন...: Support Israel and let the other ME countries pound each other. I know, at some we will be drawn back in because of our support for Israel. Until that time, let's be spectator.; ২০/১২/১৮, ৭:২২ AM
Leslie Graves বলেছেন...: I finished "Killing Commendatore" (the audible version).; ২০/১২/১৮, ৭:২৬ AM
Maillard Reactionary বলেছেন...: No comment from Nobel Peace Prize winner Desmond Tutu about the pending expropriation of land and property from white farmers in South Africa. https://pjmedia.com/trending/wheres-tutu/

Can it be that another 20th century moral icon will be toppled? That truly would be difficult to bear. An aching world looks southward and asks, "You too, Tutu?"; ২০/১২/১৮, ৭:৫৫ AM
alanc709 বলেছেন...: When was the last rational Nobel Peace Prize awarded? It's been a liberal handout for decades.; ২০/১২/১৮, ৮:০৯ AM
Fernandinande বলেছেন...: Hi, bumping my Yeti videos. Here is Yeti Comes In, and this is Yeti Three Pitch Inning.

I like the one about the scraggly tree in a crack-house window listening to some guy mumble about stuff.; ২০/১২/১৮, ৮:১৩ AM
tcrosse বলেছেন...: It has come to light that the Nevada state legislature is now majority women, and the mayors of Las Vegas, Reno, and Henderson, are all women. The local TV political analyst noted that women now have 'a bigger seat at the table'.; ২০/১২/১৮, ৮:২৬ AM
Original Mike বলেছেন...: "2018 Winter Solstice expected to occur at same time as Full Moon and Meteor Shower"

A full moon ruins a meteor shower. You want the new moon so that the sky is dark.; ২০/১২/১৮, ৮:২৮ AM
chillblaine বলেছেন...: LOL at you brother! Ha! You got me pegged! I added pine boughs from an outside tree to looksmax the tree. Women use hair extensions, I see nothing wrong with this. Ha later F. tee hee!; ২০/১২/১৮, ৯:০২ AM
chillblaine বলেছেন...: "Trading Places," is a Christmas movie. Going to lay it all out today. Today!

"Those men, they! wanted to have sex with me!!!"

rhhardin বলেছেন...: I'm expecting rain from the weather scope; it's always approaching and nearby but dissolving exactly before it gets here, a common weather pattern.

It means descending air overhead.

The horizontal dynamics of descending air regions are not clear. It makes it hard to figure odds for a bicycle dash to the store.; ২০/১২/১৮, ৯:৩৩ AM

chillblaine বলেছেন...: Hello From Cope Land! This pair of videos is based on an imaginary issue with our "sponsor," Lex-Lax. The legal department has instructed us on the way forward. Also, we take on a new sponsor, Core Fitness. Ok, it's basically a big poopie joke. Later.

Important Cope Land Message

New Sponsor, Cope Hydration

ok sportsfans, later!~; ২০/১২/১৮, ২:০৩ PM
Maillard Reactionary বলেছেন...: BL: With a name like Tutu, the jokes write themselves (Et tu, Tutu?) but sometimes a little setup is required.; ২০/১২/১৮, ৪:২০ PM
Bad Lieutenant বলেছেন...: I think people were very noble, thirty years ago, to refrain from putting snick on the man's name. I also think that anyone who thought the blacks would honor their bargain any longer than necessary were... adorable!; ২০/১২/১৮, ৭:৫৫ PM
