[The last sandbox was a bit overfull, other than that it appears that 'climate change' has again become the perennially misunderstood issue of interest du jour. I was a bit surprised that Thomas Elias <tdelias@aol.com>, waxing on the evidence for inevitable climate change in the 21oct17 Union, never once mentioned even the existence of credited and credible scientists who dispute the hysteria of the True Believers. I suppose such admissions to the lightly read might discombuberate their carefully implanted opinions, and inadvertently open up directions of inquiry best left undisturbed. gjr]

Todd, perhaps I should explain something to you.
If two people (P1 & P2) notice that you post a Facebook meme that the web is buzzing about being a fake, and P1 and P2 both comment of it being a fake in different venues, that does not prove that P1 & P2 are the same person.
The point that the two articles on Ms. Johnson and her husband in the SacBee didn’t mention the fake FB post may just mean they have enough class not to drag a gold star family into the shitty gutter you would.
What everyone should watch is if Todd is proven wrong, will he admit he was worng, or will he act like the people he loves so much, and lie his moronic ass off.

Dear sweet Auntie Maxipad (the handsdown millennials’ favorite), Freaky Freddy the wacky lady of the night, Hillary who could not remember squat 39 times because of her brain injury, and Queen Nancy, the leader who keeps injecting Botox into her gray matter by mistake. Quite a diverse group, no? It’s a male dominated leadership, so Nancy needs to keep on keeping on so the Dems have at least one woman to represent them.

Half the Democrats had at one time been sure that the Russians actually hacked the election results with Trump in cahoots but now it appears there’s more meat for Muller about collusion with Democrats. 2018 will be interesting.

Oh Bobbie, put it into perspective. So Trump stumbles over the fallen’s name. Like his first name was La David or something….I already forgot his first name, not his service. Green Beret. Good man. The best and brightest.
And Kelly repeated some staffer’s research she handed him about an FBI building’s opening. It could have been a post office. Big deal. It’s not like Trump doesn’t make 200 phones calls a day from before dawn into the wee hours of the night.
So, now because of a momentary brain freeze or stumbling over the fallen’s soldiers name while giving condolences to his grief stricten wife (if that is what you say happened), you expect me to believe that
A) this was a White Supremist Freudian slip and
B) General Kelly is a racist! Freddy is the victim of an attack…by the mean o’ Vast Deplorable Conspiracy!,. It ain’t fair. Politics should be whiffleball.
Was Freaky Freddy disrespected? Hell yes!, but no disprected enough for my preferences. What a piece of work she is. Saw it going around spouting off, standing with Screeching Owl Tin Lizzy Warren all upset like, wailing “I be dissed because I am a Black Woman…by White Male Suprematist….the White House is packed full of them!” Halloween must come early in Washington. Freaky Freddie and Squatting Grunt Warren weer dressed up as Cowboy and Indian.
“It strains all credulity to think that Donald Trump wasn’t trying to be sympathetic and empathetic in that phone call. … The idea that he wasn’t somehow going into this in good faith just strikes me as bizarre and false on its face.” —Jonah Goldberg
Put it in perspective. A gaffe. Geeze, you guys really do still wet your beds, don’t ya? Perhaps some anger management classes or a nice therapeutic massage would calm your savage beast. Hard for me to say. You, Mr. Cross, are going to give your self a heart attack or pop a blood vessel on the side of your temple. Oh, BTW, It really is distracting when that vein on the side of your noggin swells up and starting throbbing when you get like this. Strike that. I get fixated,looking and that those blood vessel start pulsating and heave to and fro. It’s all good,man. Get ahold of yourself. It’s not like FLOTUS wore heels on departure and tennies on the ground upon arrival or any big stuff like that. Yes, John McCain can suck my Patriot Missle…and Trump’s too while he is at it.
