Or else.

Donna Shallala brought Barry to WI, along with all those NJ recruits. So D's are capable of other than destruction of decency and integrity.; २६/१०/१९, २:१४ PM
Guildofcannonballs म्हणाले...: Just how many penis' are shown?

Since I have the single definitive paradigm, I say none.

But I understand those who see more also/too.; २६/१०/१९, २:२१ PM

Bloomberg says Trump outsmarted Putin.

Hagar म्हणाले...: A long time ago PBS had a program series with interviews with the "wise men" of Washington, D.c., and Clark Clifford in mellifluous tones explained to us that the President could not rely on his cabinet secretaries, but indeed needed his own men around him in the White House because, he said, cabinet secretaries in the first place come to town with their own agenda and then immediately get preoccupied with their department's daily turf struggles with other departments, congressional committees, etc. and so forth, and altogether are much too busy with their own affairs to be of much use for the President in solving his problems.
"Whoa," I thought," This certainly is a much different theory of government than set out in the Constitution!"

Today this seems to have evolved further so that a lot of people around D.C. think the President should by no means be allowed to have "his own men" serving him, but should be more like a constitutional monarch or president in a parliamentary system with perhaps some powers dependent on his personal character and diplomatic skills, but basically is required to just preside at official functions and sign his name to whatever they put in front of him to sign. Actual policy is strictly for Congress and the Civil Service to negotiate and determine.
So, another theory of government different from that set forth in the Constitution.; २६/१०/१९, ५:२३ PM
traditionalguy म्हणाले...: TCU has Texas whipped by 10 at Amon Carter in Ft Worth. If the Frogs win it, that will make 5 out of the last 6 games that little TCU has taken down the mighty Texas. There is rejoicing in the family.; २६/१०/१९, ५:३० PM
Maillard Reactionary म्हणाले...: You have nice trees around your lake there, Professor.

Around our lake it's mostly pine trees, but the black gum and red maples stand out nicely amidst the green. And the odd sassafras here and there makes its contribution.; २६/१०/१९, ६:०२ PM

Dave Begley म्हणाले...: In Austin for the film festival and went to the Texas Book Fair. On Book TV I asked Samatha Power why she spied on US citizens without a warrant. She denied it.” DDB, “I think you are lying.”

Old woman in front of me shot me a dirty look.

Power was in on Paris Agreement, Iran deal and Syria red line. What a colossal failure.

Jaq म्हणाले...: However, Flynn's lawyer Sidney Powell is hammering the FBI and DOJ over media leaks and referenced a purported conversation between former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper and Washington Post reporter David Ignatius, claiming Clapper told the reporter “words to the effect of 'take the kill shot on Flynn,'” after he reportedly obtained the transcript of Flynn’s phone calls.

A spokesman for Clapper disputed that report, telling Fox News that he "absolutely did not say those words to David Ignatius."

What words exactly did he absolutely not say? That sounds more like an admission than a denial.; २६/१०/१९, ६:३९ PM

Lucien म्हणाले...: Vainly hoping for a straight answer I ask: how is it that DOJ could be withholding Brady material and other documents responsive to discovery requests from General Kelly? Don’t they work for the President and AG? Couldn’t Barr direct them to identify and produce documents required by law and fire them if they didn’t do so? What am I missing?; २६/१०/१९, ७:५२ PM
Jaq म्हणाले...: The truth about these dysfunctional, downscale communities is that they deserve to die. Economically, they are negative assets. Morally, they are indefensible. Forget all your cheap theatrical Bruce Springsteen crap. Forget your sanctimony about struggling Rust Belt factory towns and your conspiracy theories about the wily Orientals stealing our jobs. Forget your goddamned gypsum, and, if he has a problem with that, forget Ed Burke, too. The white American underclass is in thrall to a vicious, selfish culture whose main products are misery and used heroin needles. Donald Trump’s speeches make them feel good. So does OxyContin. What they need isn’t analgesics, literal or political. They need real opportunity, which means that they need real change, which means that they need U-Haul. - National Review

There’s a winning political message.; २६/१०/१९, ७:५४ PM
n.n म्हणाले...: trump-outsmarts-putin-with-syria-retreat

Trump will not repeat mistakes of the past and leave a vacuum for another ISIS to progress. The Syrians and Russians, along with other stakeholders in the region, have a compelling interest to resolve the conflict. That said, there seems to be little interest to carve Turkey, slice Syria, or disembowel Iraq in order to establish a Kurdovo.; २६/१०/१९, ८:२१ PM
