  1. Not enough eyeliner. Looks fake.
  2. So as an old dude, I take solace in bombarding my knee jerk Trumpy federal congressional reps with emails/calls on vm about every other day. Going to try to join the next protest (blue and yellow flags on overpasses type stuff) next chance I get. Any recommended charities that any of you recommend? This is game of thrones type treachery. Sickening.
  3. *the five day period to make a decision doesn't even comply with the spirit of the OWBPA, which gives people 45 days to consider exit incentive plans, but still....
  4. Imagine how much more legit this whole fiasco would have been if they made this global offer all over the federal workforce in the first couple of months, and then started actually providing at least some kind of justification for cuts thereafter. Legit justification, like "national parks are woke". Top US health agency makes $25,000 buyout offer to most of its employees I realize that would be less cruelty which is the point, but still a better long-term ploy.
  5. Yeah, the first order of business is to get someone who is going to take all the negative hits for you. Biden's was this asshole:
  6. Jesus Christ, get over it. Coffee does two things. Eh, my mom used Folgers and its fine.
  7. I can't believe how medieval I want someone to go on all these GOP folks.
  8. Let's celebrate the entire catalogue while we still can.
  9. Certainly focusing on the wrong shit. If you don't like it, Hakeem, give them the stink eye on the way out of the speech and then it's time to focus on actual, real strategy.
  10. Rahm should be a senator or rep - add a little fucking gumption to Congress.
  11. The problem is that the Dems are campaigning as the party of the rule of law and traditional norms of civility. The Republicans aren't. Therefore when Dems dive into that particular cesspool, they look weaker -- they can't keep their shit together and they simply aren't as good at being assholes. The Dems have to act twice as civil to look half as civil in the eyes of people who have double standards. I think Dems gain by playing nice in places and at ceremonies that some peope hold sacred. Go to town elsewhere. Be bold at your own rally, or when protesting. But don't shit in places that in normal times you would hold sacred. Shit on places they hold sacred but you don't.
  12. So netted out, are the dems better off at not trying to disrupt Trump speeches? Hearing some interesting viewpoitns today. I didn't watch last night, but what I'm hearing is that the Dems just aren't good enough at trolling the master troller, and since there is a double standard in terms of awfulness, the dems can't win these head to heads. On the flip side, I just may be out of touch with what the younger dems want.
  13. I thought that was good. Put her on the people to watch list.
  14. Okay, as long as we ban people with cancer and heart disease I'm fine with your approach.
  15. I do want to watch the response but I don't want any whiff of this orange turd.
  16. Not a great point. Most people he would vote for would be in office for less than four years. Life expectancy for a healthy 99-year old is 4-5 years.
  17. Ha ha. dude is still writing a book. Hard of hearing but he's absolutely all there.
  18. Yeah, I posted a while back about my 99 year-old uncle who was preparing for the Japan landing (he landed on Saipan). Lived in Scottsdale. Didn't talk politics but pretty sure knee jerk Republican.
