Well that didn’t take long, laughing is banned in the communist utopia. Team 0 is jealous!
IJING/SHANGHAI (Reuters) – China’s media regulator is cracking down on video spoofs, the official Xinhua new agency reported, amid an intensified crackdown on any content that is deemed to be in violation of socialist core values under President Xi Jinping.
The decision comes after Xi cemented his power at a recent meeting of parliament by having presidential term limits scrapped, and the ruling Communist Party tightened its grip on the media by handing control over film, news and publishing to its powerful publicity department.
Xinhua said video sites must ban videos that “distort, mock or defame classical literary and art works”, citing a directive from the State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television on Thursday.

I will unabashedly say I liked Stormy’s teaser earlier this week.. She drew ‘em in when she never said she technically slept with Trump…..then the punchline….”there was no sleeping.” I always like women with spunk. Shades of Mae West or Phyllis Diller.
Once briefly met Phyllis Diller. She was watching me scurrying about and reached out and grabbed my sleeve. Without missing a beat, she told me to “Save your energy. You’re going to need it later,” with a big wink and twinkle in her eye. Spunky Stormy.
Yo Archie, Stormy wants to know if that is a pistol in your pocket or are just glad to see her. Make America Horny Again.

With all the school days piglet is missing, he should just skip college for a year or semester and focus on catching up on his homework. Maybe he can do summer class if it’s offered.
Great minds think alike. I was just thinking about Cindy Sheehan earlier in the morning on the day you posted whether piglet will become another Cindy Sheehan or somebody else. Yep, they loved Cindy like a rock star until Camp Casey was dismantled and Cindy dared to talk about running against Ma’am Babs Boxer. Not only was she dropped like a hot rock, she became a pariah
Don’t think piglet will be dumped as quickly, but you never know. He has more legs and usefulness to the extreme fanatic no borders crowd and other haters now that the Russian Collusion fakenews has unraveled, exposing only Friends of Hillary and Barry Frosted O’s. Oppps. The Left cannot survivewithout adding to the victim class
Piglet has legs as a story. But, yes, after they use him up, parade him in front the cameras for a while, and suck him dry , they will spit him out. Like Cindy, he wbe left alone with trash bags picking up the litter and mess that the media and ambulance chasers left behind. Or maybe he is working on a movie deal.
Whatever I think of Cindy has been forever replaced with that image of her with a couple of lady friends on the vast windswept landscape walking about picking up all the litter tossed about during her 15 minutes of fame. That clip saddened me for a whole day. Seriously, it wasn’t right to leave her to pick up after them. The whole scene was reminiscent of tumble weeds blowing through a ghost town.
Strike that about Piglet being like a i day. Piglet will never stoop to pick up litter. Ever, ever, ever. He is above that. And Bobbiy Sherman was once a teen idol as well

Jon is convinced that Trump is an immoral man. He already called the FLOTUS a whore, and like that pig face Rosie, goes after Bannon. Don’t think jon has called Bannon a retard like Rosie did. It’s who they are. That’s all they have…just going after the First Family. What gets blood spurting out of their orfaces is we have already adjudicated Trump’s behavior in the court of public opinion during the election.
Cut the haters some slack. Even Rosie. There is a bit of good in the worse of us, a bit of bad in the best of us. For instance, Archie always breaks for school zones….with his trusty camera on the ready.
Speaking of Rosie the Pig, I will defend jon as well. Anyone who says jon ain’t fit to eat with the pigs is wrong. Ms. Smith is indeed fit to eat with the pigs.

Teenage girl recruited by paedophile Jeffrey Epstein reveals how she twice met Bill Clinton
‘I only ever met Bill twice but Jeffrey had told me that they were good friends.
‘I asked, “How come?” and he laughed and said, “He owes me some favours.” Maybe he was just joking but it constantly surprised me that people with as much to lose as Bill and [Prince] Andrew weren’t more careful.
‘Bill must have known about Jeffrey’s girls. There were three desks in the living area of the villa on the island.
