The Rose Parade with homos “marrying” atop a wedding cake float, queen of disgusting Kathy Griffin co-hosting New Year's Eve coverage with homo Anderson Cooper, unqualified lesbian SCOTUS appointee dropping the ball in Times Square — Satan's minions foul and besmirch everything.

Another “compelling” chapter in her “compelling life story”. Yee haw! What a load. This will qualify her for chief justice!

Sorry but the pronunciation that automatically comes to mind sounds too much like “sodomizer”.

Now that’s a real classy use of a supreme court justice’s time. Real classy, no?

I’ll never forget that pig Ted “lion of the senate” Kennedy accusing Bork of all kinds of nonsense. I forget his exact words, but it was the usual garbage about Bork wanting segregation, back-alley abortions, etc.
I’ll give Ted some credit, he managed to to keep his pants on and hide his drunkenness when he uttered that nonsense, though.

Hopefully it drops on her.ditto that, very very hard ...

Good to know. I had planned to stay up long enough to watch it drop (11:00 where I live) but now I won’t bother. I do want to remember Mr. Mercat’s mother who passed away last January. By New Year’s Eve she was ill enough that she had to have someone with her 24/7. My sister in law drew the New Year’s Eve shift. She was sound asleep on the sofa in the next room when she heard a bell ringing wildly. She went in thinking Irene had fallen or worse and saw her sitting up in bed with a huge grin saying, “Happy New Year.” So Happy New Year Irene You are missed.

Govt figures now heading ball drops. Ugh ugh ugh.
To: Olog-hai
Is she going to help it fall by being inside it?
To: Olog-hai
Makes sense, I guess. The constitution-abandoning SCOTUS Justice overseeing yet another vivid depiction of America “dropping the ball.”
When will we stop dropping the ball America?
