Burgold Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 1 hour ago, Sacks 'n' Stuff said: **** you John Kelly...  It is alarming though how much DNC, Hillary, Obama stuff we're hearing about now. Not because it's true or because I'm concerned that anything will come of it. It's an indicator of how stupid the people running our country really are and have been this whole time. Scary....  It's also alarming because partisanship and bickering is fine for normal times, but when the stuff gets serious we are all supposed to roll up our sleeves and come together. If another power is manipulating our elections that's quite serious. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsburySkinsFan Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017  With Trump administration people I tend to classify them into three groups: operatives, believers, and cultists. The operatives are those DC and party professionals. The believers are those true GOP faithful who are there in order to advance the agenda  And then there are the Trump cultists, I think that’s fairly self-explanatory.  I used to rank Kelly in the operatives column, but after his comments and some of his actions over the last couple weeks I think  he needs to be reclassified into the believers and possibly cultists.

Bang Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 (edited) 10 hours ago, The Sisko said: But what about that whole personal responsibility, law and order stuff? I mean, last I checked, 29 counts as an adult.  The Party of Personal Responsibility does absolutely nothing but point fingers at everyone but themselves in every possible instance that they can. It's their ENTIRE platform. You see it demonstrated here in the form of "still better than Hillary". The Party of Limited Government wants to expand the government into your bedroom, into your pants, into your sex life, into your education, into your pockets, into your life. The Party of Free Market is cheering the head of the executive branch when he attacks private companies that haven't broken any laws and encourages boycotts for his own personal reasons. The Party of Fiscal Responsibility is letting the head of the executive branch spend ridiculous amounts of time and expense playing golf. The Party of Spending Watchdogs enable the president to fleece the American people for his own personal gain by letting us pick up the tab for every single time the head of the executive branch of the federal government goes to one of his resorts, one of his hotels, one of his properties. The Party of America First is closing ranks around a President who seems more likely every day to be involved in the most treasonous act this country has ever seen.  No values. No morals. No honor.  ~Bang    Edited October 31, 2017 by Bang 1 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Profiteers. Those who know what's going on is crooked as hell, but know they can make a buck and don't care what gets burned in their wake. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DogofWar1 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 (edited) Okay, this was funny:    PS, on this front, twitter still missing about two zeroes.    And of course, from the Donald himself:  Funny thing is, indeed, few people knew who George was...with the exception of your own people. Which begs the question, why was some 29 year old who few people knew chosen for the role he received? Occam's razor will get you impeached, btw.

He's essentially Flynn-lite. Â I spent a chunk of time a while back reading/researching Mueller's team, a few I recognized, several I didn't, and I made this point before, they are not your typical collection of legal apparatchiks, these are outright ****ing assassins, literally the best n brightest, and I would bet an appendage of your choice that they have a serious plan in place, contingencies anticipated, all their ducks in a row, yadda yadda, and this is just the first opening move in a gameplan that involves cracking their way into bank records and legal relationships that mere subpoenas wouldn't open.

No Excuses Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 The obviously smart play is to attack the guy who has been cooperating with the FBI and likely has a good amount of dirt on you.  Also signals well to the other people, that once you're in ****, we will dunk you in there even more to save our own skin.  Idiots voted for a group of idiots and are collectively surprised that things are going south. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's amazing that someone that smart can fall for Dump's schtick. I mean, Honey Boo Boo I can see. But if you've got half a brain, you can't let being impressed with how a used car salesman puts one over on his dupes and then get sucked into buying the freaking car.  FWIW, I ditched all my Dilbert crap after finding out about this.  He is infatuated with Trump. It's not surprising because he's the same type of ego maniac. I'm happy he is suffering financially for his decision. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreatBuzz Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 I like the Honey Boo Boo reference. I remember the first time I heard of that show and my wife explained to me what it was and how popular it was, I knew our nation was ****ed. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, now that I think about it, they did. They built in protections from ourselves. They counted on the system to be functioning well in order to make sure that we didn’t do stupid stuff. The problem is that those in charge of running the system are corrupted, potentially hopelessly corrupted.  Votes for land owners Democratic Republic Senators not picked by voters Electoral College Three branches of government, system of checks and balances Constitution  By gawd...they knew we were morons. They just didn’t count on the morons taking over. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they did, hence the whole restricting voting to landowners thing.
