This is not OT, I swear. I went to see a new young doctor recently, and reviewing my history I referred to some medical test I'd had which was not in my record. I recalled that it was probably before Obama was president. She slapped her hands on her knees and said "What?!" Like how could such a thing be possible. She was probably in grammar school.
But it makes me realize that Barack Obama's presidency is one of those things by which you recall the before and after of the passing years, like "that happened before..." ...before I had that child, or before we moved to the new town, or before we got married.
I teach CPR, sometimes with our lead instructor. Teaching with her I commented to a class once that AEDs were not always a part of the CPR response protocol. Well. I was probably learning or teaching CPR before she was born. Time flies…
I dunno. Those years were a nice respite between Bush the Dumber and Tiny Hands Trash Dump. The Party of Ignorance, Greed and Violence has always been in the background, if not in the ascendancy, since President Dementia taught his fellow dimwit minority how to take pride in stupidity, back in 1980.
Donald Trump is a World Historical Monster which is an aggrandizing title that indicates Trump's historical importance without at all implying that he's intelligent or even competent. He bumbles his way though the disaster. But Barrack? He's a fucking genius.
He was also able to personally text ME -- during his speech! of course I felt very special and honored; and it's a great example of Obama's ability to 'walk and chew gum' at the same time - or in this case speak at the DNC and send me a text. Thanks Barry!!!!
Ta, Dok. We're all working for the next 10+ weeks.
Fine article, Dok!
I haven’t checked, but the “beloveds” comment sounds very much like our Beloved Ms Ivins, and if it’s not her someone is channeling her spirit.
. . . even people in states that would elect a jar of pretend semen to Congress if it had an R after its name.

Sir points out that the Obama gesture indicated girth, not "longingnesses".
"She's rich! She's beautiful! She has huge . . . . tracts of land!"
Oft do I refer to Trump as "Lancelot at the Wedding"

The landmark composition Roly Poly Fish Heads is the foundation
on which the American entertainment industry was built.

also, too: Billy Mumy LIBELZ!!@1!!
Roly Poly Fish Heads Libulz!
He is more the Gimme Dat
I think he's more the Convoy- not funny, and too dated to make any sense
It's no Boogie Woogie Amputee
I would buy a T-shirt that says, "The Sequel Is Never Better"
Okay, The Empire Strikes Back, but that's all.
A genuinely great man.
The world needs more Obamas (Barry ANDS Michelle) and Carters and Harrises and Walz'. Maybe then we can rise to our potential at last.
obama strikes again! It was a bit long but all good stuff.
and actually give a speech as opposed to rambling about sharks and electrocutions for an hour and a half.
It had a structure! It moved from one point to another and constructed an argument!
Rhetoric! You know how it works!
Not from watching TFG....
Argument’s an intellectual process. Contradiction’s just the
automatic gainsaying of anything the other person says.
No, it isn't--
Yes, it is
whoa! is that even allowed nowadays?
Still. Always.
