Sorry. Donald Trump is a P licking traitorous yellow dog. He is the greatest abomination in the history of the United States Of America -- and that's saying something. As such he is a greater...

The Ernest and Julio Gallo winery in California -- makers of the fabled Night Train and Thunderbird -- used to have 16 parallel spur railroad tracks that were used only to deliver the grapes at...

Secretly, WTF?

In sharp contrast to the English way.

Simpler -- ambition. Like the sex drive, and very likely closely related to it, if it didn't overcome reason, it would fail in its purpose.

You get a Hyatt Regency roomful of people paying to...

Well, not to disagree, but just to put some nuance into it, that raises the question of how much the numbers indicate the strength of influence.

When some Red slams some person, the Red rabble...

Exactly. On to Moscow, not for vengeance, but because nothing less will do, as a practical matter.

Quality of manufacture has declined precipitously, don't pee on my foot and tell me it's raining.

The judge is a wit!

Interesting. In a non-national-security-case, does the judge actually see what they seized, or just glance at the return, or not even that, just file it? Why should he actually look at what was...

They make it easy, in fact they work hard to make it impossible not to.



That would be wrong, and it wouldn't work. The first step is persuading them of our common interest, which tribalism...

Keith -- left or right, the more extreme, the more anti-liberal. Of course they admire each other's strengths; of course they don't condemn whipping, they just want to the whipper and not the...

There is no right to understand, and cost/benefit is against disclosure at this stage. Later, maybe. It's not a TV show.

Could it be you're not reading carefully? The counting to ten thing was only a couple of posts back.

If you don't understand, why do you respond with ad hominem? Does that move the discussion...

Gee, just when I got to about three.

It seems like I never have the same problem twice. It's this or that insect or disease. I go buy something which I use very sparingly, and now there's a shelf for all the snake oil. I look at each...

Yeah. But we don't care if they are the sacred power stones of Toot On Common dwelling perpetually among the blessed. We're seizing them. Ya folla?

Stuff like this is what makes me stop talking to you. As we say over here, "Smile when you say that, partner."

Every time I come around to thinking, fuggettaboutit, let it go, there you go...

I don't understand the argument "You can't take these things, they're mine!"

It's in the name: search and seizure.

Then there's civil forfeiture.

I understand that's what you say, but why?

Twenty lashes with a wet noodle. You can stop a dictator with ten, it hurts so bad.

Yes, the IRS is not known for generosity or compassion in general, and especially not in cases of criminal offenses.

Did I just hear that just since the search, Trump has on a few days received donations of over a million dollars per day?

Huh?

All that plus the moral corruption of the society that carries it out. It may not rise to the level of preventing capital punishment in a given case, but it's a real thing. It's killing, done in...

You bet. Don't need a revolution just to have a post office. Skip the tear gas and bayonets altogether.

Right angle plugs are good for leading power strips to the wall. Straight plugs are better for plugging into the power strip. Often a power strip can only accomodate one right angle plug, which has...

Yeah, just state your position again. That often makes it clearer to everyone, including oneself.

Do you support full NATO membership for Ukraine and Georgia?

What do they have in common? ...

Socialism is a

1. left-wing to far-left

2. economic philosophy and movement

3. characterized by the dominance

4. of social ownership of the means of production

According to you, the US is socialist, so what's the diff?

What is their definition of socialist?

But to what purpose? We don't call the VA socialism . . . so what?



Every government in history has been socialist, with a definition that broad.

They couldn't possibly. They don't know what it is, and won't be told.

No shirp, shirplock

wish I'd saved the posts about how it was over the top, then

I assumed the authors would stand up and admit like men

No more.

No quarter, shareholders be damned. Socialization will come. It's where society says, "we care", or shuts TF up.

Makes a difference in one's attitude towards one's fellows.

Oh the evil west, their position v. Putin is forfeit, except, not. You "really" defeated the Nazis, now . . . like them . . . you can't hold Kherson.

FO Ivan. Eastern Europe is not the...

Get some local to find you some windows from a demolition. Make a greenhouse. Put out a stick to measure the shadow on the equinox; orient the shed at 90 degrees. Whole Earth Catalog.

You've got lots of space, that's cheating.

Avocado, oh yeah.

My father in law has been trying 90 years. Been through at least 30 trees. 900 miles north of their natural range. Good until about 2010. Then climate change. He remembers...

I'm a hippie, but . . .

The analogy fails.

The definition of socialism is moral taxonomy, not biological. Biological taxonomy has the purpose of distinguishing one life form from another, for purposes of building of a...

They gave Medals Of Honor to the perpetrators of Wounded Knee? That compounds the stain on us.

So the Academy is apologizing for the behavior of the attendees?

Low interest rates promotes speculation on futures, is that the deal? All there is to it?

Yes, there is also the question of how the revenue produced is distributed. If no revenue is produced, as with roads, are the roads socialist, only because they are publicly owned? They are built...

Yes, neither he nor the ratifiers would have called socialist, so how is that we can? Meanwhile there are private enterprises, such as ship building, that are founded on private capital. How is it...

Yes. Benjamin Franklin didn't call the Post Office socialism. Was he wrong?



Depends on what type. So let each socialist set forth his self-definition . . . honestly. The responsible thing....

Twit liberals seem determined to provide a steady supply.

It would have been 24 jars -- 12 to a case -- but a long time ago I gave away a jar of marinara each to two different people, who didn't return the jars. So I only have 22, which haven't left the...

Sweet or hot?

Those sci fi tomato worms ate my bell pepper plants overnight. I'd been growing them since March.

Yep.

There is no dispute that the words in quotes are the words of the Trump faction. That is a fact.

That the words actually describe the facts is highly disputable. So if the quote marks...
