Post #32: 4/01/18

  1. The Obama Presidency
  2. National Pastime
  3. Easter Bunny Parade
  4. Trump is bashing big businesses like Amazon, just like Hitler did the same. The Post Office is dying, because its original mandated mail delivery service is noncompetitive. Amazon is rolling out its own delivery service
  5. Once again, Trump, on Amazon's last-mile delivery deal, proves to be a pathological liar. Below-cost delivery has been illegal since 2006, and federal regulators have already declared the USPS contract profitable.
  6. Trump revealed his budget agreement with Chuck and Nancy included his agreement to switch parties,: to Make Trump Democrat Again. "April Fools"
  7. April Fools!
  8. Replying to 
    No to the Nuclear Option. I can't believe even you are stupid enough not to realize how destabilizing this would be in American politics, a double-edged sword that could could come back to bite you, possibly as soon as a wave election this fall.
  9. Replying to 
    Stop parroting ignorant, misleading xenophobic propaganda. Catch and Release has more to do with limited holding facilities and judicial protections of individual rights, which are natural, not State-conferred rights. Fear-mongering like you do is un-American.
  10. Replying to 
    So much for the "The Art of the Deal"! You can't get a deal done with a GOP Congress; what the hell are you going to do if and when House and/or the Senate flips this fall! If you make any attempt to deport DACA kids, it's your political funeral.
  11. Okay, won't the politically correct leftists, on the holy day of Easter, stop their disingenuous redefinition of Jesus as a politically-conscious radical and, unlike the historical Jesus who condemned judgmental people and envy, stereotyping Christians as racist hypocrites?
  12. I see Parkland shooting survivor Hogg is still milking the victim card, It was Hogg who publicly disclosed 4 public California colleges turned down his applications. not Ingraham. Letterman made teenage Bristol Palin slut jokes, no boycott. Hypocritical leftist bastards.
  13. Trump's arguments against Amazon are incompetent, economically illiterate, disingenuous, self-serving, and totally political. Laws prohibit USPS from cutting below-cost deals with Amazon. This is all about Amazon CEO Bezos also owning Washpo and Trump's war with the media.
  14. The Newly Showered and Impeccably Dressed Dozen
  15. The King entered the room and I bowed
  16. taking pineapple off my pizza.
  17. changing Junior's dirty diapers.
  18. reading Trump's latest tweet (and I don't follow him).
  19. getting mail from the IRS
  20. Not just any foxes, mind you, but Vicente Fox in particular.
  21. In contrast, the federal government has passed over 4300 laws and 89,000 rules since 1995. Clearly God is a libertarian.
  22. What the hell is wrong with my home state of Texas, putting people in prison for voting on legal technicalities? What about things like taxation without representation? Is this really worth exacerbating one of the highest global incarceration rates?
  23. Spurs coach Popovich questions the relevance of the Second Amendment, which suggests the the natural right of self-defense is some sort of State-conferred right decided by. mob rule. No, Popovich: we don't trust in a State monopoly on weapons. Ask the Founding Fathers.
  24. Personally, I tend to appreciate commercial sponsors who respect a diversity of perspectives, who refuse to get caught in the middle of squabbles among their customers. You simply note that the viewpoints expressed by a program's host or guests aren't necessarily shared by you.
  25. As to the Hogg-inspired boycott of Laura Ingraham's show sponsors, I'm not part of her show's demographic (I'm not an anti-immigrant Trumpkin). But ads are aimed at viewers, not hosts. Boycotting companies alienate that audience.
  26. Why are we still in Iraq and Afghanistan 15 years after Bush's disastrous intervention? "Master Sgt Christopher Raguso"
  27. Apparently Parkland shooting survivor David Hogg has adopted some mannerisms of German national socialists.
  28. Hogg should be mocked not for rejections by 4 CA colleges, but he thinks he's changing the world. "Celui qui n’est pas républicain à vingt ans fait douter de la générosité de son âme; mais celui qui, après trente ans, persévère, fait douter de la rectitude de son esprit. "
  29. McConnell's push to legalize industrial hemp is a rare pro-liberty step forward in this Congress.
  30. Easter reminder: The "we must be a nation of laws" Trumpkins are like the Roman soldiers.
  31. Trump was a registered Democrat
  32. Check facts before you tweet.
  33. I don't get this idea that anybody, including children, who get involved in political activities should be exempt from criticism. "Ted Nugent"
  34. I've boycotted "progressive" entertainers for years; I don't watch late-night TV or the leftist news media, I stopped buying movie tickets, and I don't buy their CD's. If you don't like Nugent's politics, don't buy his stuff. "Ted Nugent"
  35. As for Trump's freezing funds for Syrian recovery, Trump should have withdrawn at the beginning of his Presidency, not a year later. The US' destructive intervention in Syria morally requires compensation: you broke it; you bought it.
  36. We pro-life libertarians oppose the State's regulation of marriage and family. We don't believe in State mandates over voluntary choices in child quotas, partner selection, sexual behavior or preventive birth surgeries, meds or technologies.
  37. Pro-abort TX Dem state rep. Jessica Farrar has introduced a mock bill that penalizes male reproductive activities, including masturbation. (What of woman's sex toys?) There is a SHARED responsibility when a preborn child is conceived.
  38. the high maintenance Trump Administration
  39. Replying to 
    Tell that to the Koch brothers.
  40. The check-in clerk asks for your AARP card.
  41. You remember then the GDP grew more than 3% yearly.
  42. You have more hair below your neck.
  43. You say you like the Beatles, and he says, "Cool! I like bugs, too."
  44. Your younger sibling has grandchildren.
  45. You start getting spammed from funeral service companies.
  46. Young people start calling you "sir".
  47. Just like believing in Santa, you no longer believe in politicians any more.
  48. You get offered a senior citizen discount
  49. Have you notice how much Fox News Channel has been promoting Trumpkin Roseanne's TV revival? Yeah, it turns out even Roseanne has higher ratings than Trump.
  50. Can't fight: bone spurs?
  51. Your fly is open.
  52. Black belt in Karate
  53. Girls don't like bullies.
  54. Except for deregulation, Reagan would have been a harsh critic of the corrupt, faux populist Trump. He would be repulsed by Trump's economic illiterate immigration policies. "President Reagan"
  55. Trump sycophant Hannity seriously argues that Trump's early Presidency was more productive, effective than his hero-worshiped Reagan. Reagan never had a GOP House. Reagan inherited a far worse economy. "President Reagan"
  56. Replying to 
    There is too much bullshit to debunk here in one tweet, but let me comment on "supported pro-choice". As POTUS, Reagan was staunchly pro-life. Said troll may be referred to his signing a bill as an inexperienced California governor he later renounced.
  57. Coffee coming with cancer warnings in California? What would we do without meddling political, bureaucratic and judicial whores infringing on First Amendment rights? Screw fear-mongering politicos; I'm a proud coffee drinker.
  58. Finally, a meme that speaks for me.
