She needed a break from the city in the summer, from the heat, from the ceaseless crowds of tourists blocking the sidewalks she had to navigate to reach her favorite watering holes. From the stench of rotting garbage filling the air, invading her nostrils until even inhaling deeply the fumes from an open barrel of Tanqueray could not chase it off. The city in the summer was like the current state of America: disordered, edgy, crazed from the summer doldrums and the collapse of prosperity, the decay of its dreams. Even the graceless communist mayor had escaped, taking his family to Italy
I would suggest Luksusowa, it's Polish, potato based, and lovely. Especially in the freezer, where it belongs. We aren't mad at the Polish, are we, they helped invade Iraq.
Vietnam was "an outer issue" if you were rich enough to have a lying doctor, or good enough at sportsball to ensure that some poor kid went in your place. An "outer issue" is one that does not affect members of her social class. Bond interest rates are an inner issue, along with the presence of persons of color on the streets where she can see them, ew.

I&#039;m pretty sure a shared grasp of reality was also a big part of the equation. With what seems like half the country overdosing on Fucks Gnus bullshit, all day every day, that&#039;s gone by the wayside -- and I doubt that the Founders had the slightest idea that it could happen.

Wait, <em>Vietnam</em> was less of a personal issue than abortion? You might want to tell that to all the lads who came home with shattered bodies and shattered souls, or those families who had someone who never came home at all.
That&#039;s not just bone-stupid, that&#039;s freakin&#039; cold-blooded.
they&#039;re not allowed to say it out loud anymore so she screams it into a pillow before taking a handful of horse tranquilizers and slipping on a sleep mask.
Yeah, how dare that uppity POTUS mention the fact that Republicans have wanted to impeach him since the day he took office? How dare he point out that since wresting control of the House, they now are actively planning to do so and that they also fund raise off the idea?
It is hard to see your reflection in the mirror when you keep your apartment as dark as a tomb due to chronic debilitating hangovers.
So when do we torch Atlanta?
So that&#039;s what the kids are calling it these days.

nice thing is- that works for most paywalls
I figured it was the portrait of Robert Taft.
Or, in the case of George W. Bush, illiterate.
&quot;We&#039;re not like the others, kid.&quot;

And they&#039;ll take it down to demonstrate their point.

I thought people like her didn&#039;t have reflections.
