One of my favorite films as a kid.

It's "scars", not "stars"...you can hear it.

I think that the slime dries out a bit, then flakes off?

My newest favorite political song sums it all up about this douchebag President we have in office now. It's Elvin Bishop signifyin' and testifyin' with his own offical State of the Union. Song called "Something Smells Funky 'Round Here" by Elvin Bishop's Big Fun Trio. Enjoy.

"Somethin' smells funky to me...and it's comin' from Washington D.C...."

Every time I hear his voice I expect him to say "Aflac! AFLAC!"

I had to correct at least one other typo in the lyrics I posted, so yeah -- I'm going with them screwing it up.

A Tundra Grifter after my own hear you are. H.L., though a rabid racist, did, in his broader barbs aimed at humans as a whole, really capture this time in hell, though he underestimated the power of the fucking electoral college. "As democracy is perfected, the office of President represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day, the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron."

Thanks. You'd think after 4 years of being in Disqus I'd have learned it's limitations. Old Slashdot habits die hard.

Well, if he lives long enough and doesn't run off to Russia or Saudi Arabia or Brazil, Donny boy will almost certainly land in jail his own self, and not for his sorry political stunts, but for all kinds of stuff he did BEFORE he was in office.

Yeah it doesn't count for him. Only HE has ultimate power because he got voted in as King and Obama is a black man.

Definition of projection (psych) - When Trump says this: "If I were a Democrat instead of a Republican, I think everybody would've been in jail a long time ago and I'm talking with 50-year sentences. Uh, it is a disgrace what's happened. This is the greatest political scam, hoax in the history of our country. People should be going to jail for this stuff. And hopefully a lot of people are going to pay."

I know time had stopped even before the pandemic hit, but wasn't it like a week ago that Trumpy Wumpy's henchmen were arguing before the Supreme Court that the president is and should be literally above the law?
