  1. wave. heh. when this is over the word wave won't be seen anywhere.
  2. this is in need of some more ink. a lot of people aren't understanding the deeper implications of what is happening. we are passing a watershed moment in this country such that whatever the outcome of all this, these days will be discussed for many generations, if there are many generations.
  3. are you guys just going to let this turd circle the bowl?
  4. knocking the door down is a kind of knocking.
  5. if fecalnoggin called out putin, it was because putin ordered him to do it. if that happened it was likely because they are trying to discredit info showing the puppet's subservience to his ventriloquist. they've done this before. remember our so-called bombing of that runway in syria? just trying to throw off the dogs.
  6. a certain mr putin is amused by this comment.
  7. you get to do the pinching. that man is dead.
  8. oh, yeah, the concept of facebook is fine if there are protections to prevent abuse. not sure this company will survive in its present form. their business model is based on abuse.
  9. you're talking ducks. i'm talking geese.
  10. this is quickly becoming nightmare. there is no way facebook and the creeps who run it will survive this. at least as business and as businessmen.
  11. i hope a guy who played linebacker in high school tackled his ass and told him this is how we do it here.
  12. regarding the target/subject discussion, here's the summary paragraph of a po pat (ken white) explanation: Given Mueller's caution (applying for judicial approval whenever necessary) and standard methodology (developing the case through subpoenas and interviews, catching suspects in lies and using those lies to flip them as cooperators, steadily indicting new defendants as they become vulnerable), the most reasonable explanation is that he means what he says — Trump is a subject. That doesn't mean he's made a determination that Trump won't be indicted, or that it's unlikely he'll be indicted, or that he hasn't committed crimes or wrongdoing. It doesn't reflect a judgment on whether there has been a crime. It means he's not there yet. Calling Trump a subject is completely consistent with continuing to pursue evidence that would move Trump into the target column. It doesn't reduce Trump's exposure at all. It doesn't change the dilemmas his godforsaken criminal defense lawyers face. It doesn't reduce the manifest dangers of him making a statement to Mueller. It doesn't stop the process or the process stories or the steady rolling-up of Trump associates for various crimes and foolishness. what it means that trump is only a subject sorry if elsewhere posted. didn't see.
  13. oh, wow. you're a lot like me. i have a coffeemaker that i use for a clock. if it told time it would really be good for that.
  14. i have issues with specificity that i'd like to state. that you for the request.
  15. my great suspicion is this mentality was not created by rush, fox news, &c. it has existed for centuries in a subset of our population. what is new is those creeps and their rooskie overlords figuring out how to tap into the craziness. i've seen exactly what we are describing all my long life. you just have to know where to look and realize what it means.
  16. clash. that means red carpet, doesn't it?
  17. of course she has a card reader in her butt crack. it's immediately aside the receipt generator.
  18. the move to cashless economy is very similar to the move to driverless cars. we seem utterly compelled to throw ourselves at the mercy of completely digital systems at the same moment that we realize we can't really secure anything that is digital. when future generations look at us -- assuming there are future generations -- they are going to be at a loss to comprehend how stupid we are . . . right now, today.
  19. that's very interesting. thanks for letting me know. i'll watch for it.
  20. ha. perhaps the most dangerous killer of the wild west days was a little-noted texan named jim miller. deacon jim miller many called him because of his devout methodist upbringing and continued practicing faith. his habit in season was to wear a long broadcloth overcoat that was staple gear for the ministry. something was very seriously wrong with that man. he very likely killed two of his grandparents in a fit of anger when he was six years old. as a teen he shot and killed his sister's husband as the man slept. nobody knows how many people that man killed. he's not celebrated at all. no movies. no nothing. he was no courageous and dashing good guy or bad guy of the west. he was a slinking coward who shotgunned people off their horses after they passed his hiding place. so how did he get away with it? he was useful to the wealthy ranchers. when they needed someone to disappear, ol' jim got the call. the few times jim miller found himself in a courtroom he had the best lawyers a bunch of rich ranchers could afford. one time he happened to be on trial just as a big tent revival hit town. they allowed him to attend the revival and he was very loudly saved that day. at the trial all the top people in town testified, one right after another, that they had seen that man converted. there was no way jim miller henceforth would be any trouble at all. miller's end came in oklahoma, of all places. he had been hired to shotgun the local mayor who was a rancher near ada, ok. those people there knew his record. they knew the lawyers would get him off. miller knew it, too. and the jailers. they brought a piece of carpeting to make his cell more comfortable. he received his shirts freshly starched and ate better than nearly anyone in the oklahoma of that day. he generously repaid the jailers for their care, of course. the town had had enough, and one night a large group of men gave the jailer a simple option: get out of the way or die. his decision came quickly. across the alley from the jail was a livery. the old wooden building had the roof structure openly visible, of course, and there was a great place to haul miller and the three men on trial with him up onto the joists. properly secured, a body dropped from that height would fall just the right distance. all four men could have briefly attested to that fact. there's a famous pic of the four men dangling alongside a bored horse munching straw. miller is the one on the far left in his famous broadcloth coat and with a hat cocked at a funny angle. the men that night said miller was the one who didn't beg or cry. he knew his long run was over, and he asked to go out wearing his dapper hat. they refused but plopped his hat rakishly on his quiet head to take the photo. you can find that photo on the 'net if you so choose. if you do, note all four heads at odd angles. the hangings worked. the necks were broken.
  21. certainly i hear what you are saying, but i take small issue with the last point. we were fucking nuts back then but it hadn't yet exposed itself. as awful as our situation is right now, we are infinitely better off than when this image was caught. it's out in the open now and will be dealt with. we need a special person now who can heal the wounds while wounding the heels.
  22. more: she might actually be what ms clinton wanted people to think of her.
  23. lizzie warren took an ax she might be the emetic this country needs.
