What is wrong with the ‘rat party-?
They must live in confusion
What they “see” as reality
Is obviously a delusion
Despite the contradistinction
Between policies in this race
They desperately cling to Obama-
They worship his words and face
Their baseless hero worship
Is certainly one for the books-
It reminds me of Carter or Nixon
With their idiots and crooks
Makes perfect sense. A+++
Thanks. Been quite a ride!
A+++ Excellent! I think O will go down in the history books as worse than Carter, and that is saying something.
i hope you are getting a nice dinner out somewhere, for 40 years!
Off to see my girlies. BBL tonight.
Thank you and happy anniversary!
We have a contradistinction in this house with the new dog compared to our former collies. They did not mind the cat and only barked when necessary or while playing together. This new dog consistently tries to attack the cat and barks much more than any dog should. I miss my old dogs. This one is not a good replacement but he needed us. Now I have to chase his big bohunkus off the leather couch again for the THIRD TIME TODAY! There’s a lot to be said for raising a dog yourself and not having to deal with this nonsense that goes along with rescues.
Everyone’s too busy planning how they’re gonna force a brokered convention next week.
Excuse me. I need to run out and buy some stock in tin foil :)
Here’s how you can tell who said what. Does the stupidity make you pity him? Then it’s Michael Scott. Does it make you want to blast him for being such an idiot? Then it’s obviously bidenblather. That one was bidenblather.
This season of The Office will be the last. Mercifully. I don’t know if I can handle any more.
Robert California ruined it. Have you seen Longmire yet? It’s not a funny show, but it’s good.
Yes, California was a bad character. Then Nellie came along. Even worse.
Haven’t seen “Longmire.”
Thats right....R&R, is gonna give way to the new R&R...Ron and Rand...
I liked her better as Donna Noble in Dr. Who.
