Why don't candidates get Lisa Frank to design their stickers?
--------------------------
It will be SO embarrassing with the "take back America" thing when we find out it just fell and rolled under the dresser.

Commenting as a Repub, the party has left me. We voted in a Repub
majority to do specific (promised) things, and NO SOONER did Congress
get back in town, but McConnell and Boehner said "NOPE! We aren't gonna
do it.", and then Ryan doubled down on that, and we have had bupkis
done. Would have done as well voting straight Democrat, and I mean EVERY
SYLLABLE of that. I cannot abide liars.
The Republican Party of yore is done. The party of Reagan is gone, and every plank o
f the platform lies rotting in the miasma of D.C. political pragmatism.

Romney begged for Donald Trump's support in 2012.
Loyalty doesn't run very deep with Captain Underoos.

I keep seeing this, and it TASKS me.
"Walla"
The word is "Voila"( vwa-LA). "Walla" is half a town in Washington state.

Atkins chili.
Because cumin is the only spice in the world.

This is not a bunch of political campaigns.
This is an otaku orgy.

I am the one person on the planet besides the !Xhosa guy who found that Coke bottle who has never seen "Frozen".
Anyone else making this claim is merely trying to steal my distinction. They should let it go.

"Be wise as serpents, yet harmless as doves. " - St. Paul
In
a litigious society filled with individuals and groups hungering to be
offended, if you are in a service business, and someone comes in wanting
to buy your product or service, and for whatever reason you do not wish
to do so, it might be wise to not go into all the "whys" of your
decision. It will not be A Testimony. It will NOT be A Good Witness. It
will be Foolish, and offer you the opportunity to be seen on TV In A Bad
Light. Many times these situations occur PRECISELY to cause a
problem, and the wise move is to let them know you are busy, and give
them two suggestions of other businesses that might be able to help
them.
You do not owe anyone your opinions, or your reasons.

Politics involves strategy. Your vote not only goes for your "guy",
it also serves to cancel out an opposing vote. Staying home because your
guy didn't win the nomination provides a "gimme" for the opposition,
and frankly teaches you a bad habit.
This is not about who got
the most Valentines in fourth grade. This is about the immediate future
of the nation, and for our kids and grandkids.
"Gramma, why did you help (insert loathsome monster HERE) ruin America?"
"Well, honey, I felt bad because Ben Carson didn't make the cut, so I
stayed home to show EVERYBODY, and send a message by Pouting a Great
Pout."

Trump shows up at a Cruz Rally where the doubtable Glenn Beck is to
give a speech, likely dictated by The Almighty. The Glenndroids are
whinging about Trump "bullying".
Bullying? This is politics,
not second grade recess. This is Big Boy stuff, with skinned knees
and bloody noses and the occasional broken arm. Bullying? There is a
vulgar descriptor that I am struggling not to type. When did we become
so lame as adults? Trump shows up at an event. Says hard things. This is
life, this is being a grown-up. This is Politics.
Give Beck and his devotees pink anti-bullying shirts, and let them go home and cower.
(This is not a Trump endorsement. This is an Aardvark being incredulous
at the childish weenieness displayed by people trying to play at the
rough-and-tumble game of National Politics.)
Bullying...FAUGH! Pfui! Other expletive as needed.
Addendum: It was a caucus, where he had a right to be!
-----------------------------
I just coined a word.
"Trollitics"
The most important word for our time!
------------------------------
So, the Politics of Tantrum continues apace.
Intellectual
two-year-olds collapsing to the floor, kicking their sassy little feet
and screaming "IF ANYONE BESIDES MY GUY IS THE NOMINEE, THEN I'M GONNA
STAY HOME!!!!!!"
"I will aid and abet those who would continue the corrosion of these United States because I ca n't get my way. "
This is NOT a caricature.
Grow up, people. Just...GROW UP!

----------------------------------
I have detested when people display an automatic assumption that people are Out To Do Them Dirty.
Now, given a culture that has consciously rejected things which made
for good ethics and doing right, and seeing and experiencing the results
play out day-to-day, I have difficulty thinking otherwise.
----------------------------------
The post-WW2 industrial boom in the US is due to one major thing.
We had bombed all of our industrial competitors back to before the
industrial revolution. We were the only game in town. Then we rebuilt
our competitors.
Barring either our supremacy in a similar war,
or our removing people who should not be here from the job pool, we will
not ever approach that level of industrial productivity again.

BEHOLD THE HEDORAH-BURGER!!
Have a great weekend!
