Who do you think is funding Robert Francis O’Rourke?
LOL, I’m Irish American myself, but there are different kinds of Irish.
Jim was a pretty good friend of mine.During much of his career I did the Keys report for the Herald and he did the main column on Friday and sometimes other days as well.Later on he did the Friday fishing report which I contributed to him often sometimes with acknowledgement sometimes anonymously.
It was a huge area to cover.
Whoaaa there pardner, sounds a bit too familiar!!
Maybe getting out ahead of the doc release that we all know is coming sometime, hopefully soon.
Gives RR a reason to continue to not sign off on release, sounds plausible.
Welcome back to the political arena.
I caught your speech Friday, you can still read a teleprompter like nobody’s business.
Your attacks on Republicans were red meat for your base, which was your goal. Thankfully, they are hungry because President Trump stands on the verge of getting a second Supreme Court justice confirmed. (Do you wake up in the middle of the night screaming, “Merrick Garland!” like so many of your fans do? I kind of hope so.)
And I don’t begrudge your breaking with tradition of former Presidents not criticizing their successors. You spent 8 years in office whining about your predecessor, why should we expect anything different in the other end of those 8 years of awful?
I do, however, have a couple of bones to pick with your speech. It shouldn’t be surprising, you were a horrible president, so when you feed your obviously hungry ego people are bound to take issue with it.
You keep trying to claim credit for the economy. This is clearly a sore spot with you, and I understand why. The economy under your administration was sluggish, awful, really. So much so that your sycophantic media minions tried to convince the public that 2 percent growth was “the new normal” in an attempt to make your failure look like a success, like the best we could expect going forward. And they did a good job of it.
There are people who couldn’t find work under your administration who are now working. We both know you didn’t have anything to do with it, but you’ve got to sleep, right? Your legacy can’t just be flowery speeches, stagnation, and a Middle East in disarray. I mean, it is, but you can’t say that. You’ve got a library/monument to yourself to build, and you don’t want a Libya wing.
So you have to belittle the guy who brought about some of the lowest unemployment in generations, lowest black and Hispanic unemployment ever, and spurred economic growth that makes your two terms look like a soiled diaper. I don’t blame you.
Your line about how the economic recovery started under your administration was cute, and it played well with the drooling audience. You knew you were safe in saying that because journalists, who just can’t quit you, weren’t going to report how while the growth rate in 2015 was 2.9 percent (so close to 3 percent, but you just couldn’t get there, could you?), the rate the following year lost nearly 50 percent of that, a pathetic 1.6 percent. When you know the downward trajectory you’d created wasn’t going to be reported, you can say things like you did.
Again, I don’t blame you. I’d be embarrassed of your economic record too.
I do, however, take issue with you claims of Republicans being responsible for the division in the country. Like when you said President Trump was “just capitalizing on resentments that politicians have been fanning for years,” you were implying complicity for yourself, right? Aside from the fact that people will always disagree about politics, I seem to recall your administration and media cronies declaring everyone who dared hold a contrary opinion from you to be a racist, in one form or another. And I don’t remember you saying much about it. Considering you claimed to have learned about the scandals in your administration from the media, I’d assume you would have noticed those stories too. Unless you were lying. But you wouldn’t do that, right?
That was part of the plan LOL
But a longwire through the tree gets me Baghdad in Tx, on the grayline.

Great Homily. Read between the lines and you will see Fr. Lankeit calls out the highest prelates.

Yes that and sheer desperation to replay the race card since it worked so well.
Drive back... Rush does.
Me? I’m taking notes..
We all appreciate the clarification. I could not find the Canadian version, this is the best I could do
Make you happy, make you gay, That's why I come twice a day I'm your mailman. Knock your knockers, ring your bell, Gee I really think you're swell, I'm your mailman.
I can come in any kind of weather, That's because me bag is made of leather. I don't need no keys or locks, I can slip in your box, I'm your mailman.
When I'm walking down the road Gee, I'd like to drop me load I'm your mailman.
When I'm walking down the lane Each one says please come again I'm your mailman.
Each one says she wants me to deliver Each one wants as much as I can give her. So if you're feeling sad and blue I've got something good for you I'm your mailman.
The “Massholes”
I lived in the Boston area, so having Drunk Irish politicians is as common as flies on poop.
The best part of the Irish is the Whisky - the older the better
The Dems. keep using the same bag of tricks. Younger people do not know the tricks used during Nixon. They are doing remakes of the same song and releasing those songs to the younger voters.
“Where they are appreciated” And Closer...
Bourdain had an 11 year old daughter he loved dearly and the same with a girl friend who he was in love with. Also his new show had taken a turn toward more news,less food and CNN was freaking out.They could not control him since he was the only good show they had on the entire network.More likely he pissed the wrong people off and someone got to him.
He had investigated Hillary,made a few comments about her and her aids told him to eat a scorpion, CNN,he was all over deep state pedos, he was chatting for days with Elon Musk about the deep state which he was recently awakened to(hopefully not stoned out of their minds but you never know) and was after Weinstein.
Too many irons in the fire.
He had rattled too many chains and one of them acted on him pretty safe bet.
Asia Argento was a true space cadet but she was also into pedophilia and had had her problems with weinstein as well.
Could be...
I doubt GW lost graciously just like zero and bubba he was cabal and did what he was told,after all the leader of the deep state,shadow govt. was his ol’ man before hillary.
Good point.
Cool. I read many of your reports from the Keys.
