No idea what that was; auto-moderation can be triggered if you had a bunch of links or a particularly long post, but we didn't do anything on our side. I was gone all weekend! Setting your account as "approved, which should help.

According to friends who used to work at CNN, Lou Dobbs is a complete and utter asshole.

Ahhh! You mean "don't blow that (anticipated) windfall like it's a Sopranino Didgeridoo or electric Ocarina or something...

My BAC must've been dangerously low earlier...

Ever notice how Trump's Twitter endorsements all use the same language? They all claim the endorsee is "strong on Crime, Border & Military" even when the office he's endorsing them for have nothing to do with any of those.

That he could shit out boilerplate and still make it look like it was written on the fly by a drunken illiterate in love with inappropriate initial capital letters is a remarkable and rare talent.

Digging deeper, eh? Look Sport, your strawman is in the mirror, and when someone calls you out for being an offensive dick, it's unwise to respond by calling her "defensive." You obviously are under the impression that bookkeepers are still scribbling in ledgers with pencil. I'm familiar with automation and the changes within my profession, thanks, and you should not be spouting off on a subject about which you are ignorant, but this went from me paying YoBunnyBunny a compliment and responding to your mindless remark with a lighthearted libelz joke, to you asserting that you write one check a year (good for you but irrelevant to the rest of the world), that "computers" eliminate the need to pay attention to financial accounts (LOL), and that my career is going the way of the Dodo (it's not). Nope, you don't get to turn that around. You are a dick saying dickish things to someone on the internet about whom you know dick, for whatever your dickish purpose may be. Don't know what your childhood trauma is, and don't care. Now kindly fuck off and stop cluttering my inbox.

I'm wondering if Trump's last minute endorsements provided cover for Kobach and Kemp, the sec of state running for governor in Georgia, as they (allegedly) "enabled" their own nominations.

But he has enacted draconian remedies in several states, in case more than 3 fraud cases worldwide pop up.

The dweeb secretary of state of Georgia, who Trump supported and suddenly won the Rethug gubernatorial nomination, is pulling similar shenanigans there (like shutting online registration for "maintenance"). And Dems voting hater, sec of state Jon Husted is running for Lt. Governor in Ohio. How much is he messing with the vaunted O'Connor OH12 race? Perhaps secs of state should be required to recuse.

He thinks that somehow an invented fact is not a lie. That is typical of the whole Trumpian cabal.

Fast cars, faster women, whiskey, song... While I'm somewhat past "midlife", I didn't have time for a crisis, at least then, so a bright red, very expensive, difficult to ensure sports car, maybe two...

You guys are gonna think I'm a congressman the way I spend my new found wealth
