Whatever you do, don't point out that you can dig under a wall, or next he'll ask for a moat also too.

I no longer heart Huckabees.

I am doubtful that they actually want to build anything.

Pretty sure they're hoping a bunch of no-bid huge contracts will magically go to the contractor equivalent of "Whitefish Energy" and some remote fences (that already exist) will be given (at best) a new coat of paint and lovely photograph, for the consumption of ignoramuses on social media.

At worst, the money just vanishes in a cloud of poor recordkeeping. Nobody will be able to unwind which sections of remote fencing were already there and which ones were freshly built.

Honey, stop wearing purple. You look like Grimace in drag.

We can assume Trump and his minions have already bought up some of the land they want to build the new fences on.

Well found: crooked and bent describes that family well.

My Latin studies were nigh onto sixty years ago, but I find the little RNC twerp decidedly Preibeian.

Aren't we all?

Still... beg pardon.

Funniest post I read today - although, in full disclosure, one always gets extra credit for a Rocky and Friends reference.

Now I knew that Trump already has a reputation for bringing into his administration various grifters, sleaze-bags and mountebanks (and that's just the White House Chaplain's office), but you're spot on about the odd and often suspiciously-non-Amurrrican names. For example if Jess Sessions went to Huckabee's house for dinner, he might say: "Mrs. Huckabee, I do declare that your dish of possum stew is mighty tasty. However, I must inform you that it has left me with a bad case of the Gorkas. Now, maam, if you don't mind, I shall retire to may fainting couch and rub off a Priebus or (with a twinkle in his eye) a Pudzer."

By the way, Wonkette English (Latin?) majors, is the plural of Priebus: Priebuses or Priebi? I can never get that right. Also too, I grew up in Kansas so I know about husking or shucking corn, so I was curious about the derivation of the Huckabee name. Can one really huck a bee and would the bee even like it? So I turns to the interwebs and (I'm not making this up) the Wiki folks tell me this:

Huckabee: This surname originated as a habitational name, derived from Huccaby in Devon, England; this place name is derived from two Old English elements: the first, woh, meaning "CROOKED" (all-caps mine); the second, byge , meaning "river bend".

"Manatee of Mendacity" I almost choked on my beverage.

As a woman, I don't like to comment of appearances but after a solid year this particular woman is grating on me. I would like to add that whoever told her to wear those big fat pearls around her big fat neck wasn't being helpful

Oh, she's the poster girl for "unfuckable."

She dresses like a sofa as it is. The pepto pink is to fool you into thinking she's not a complete sociopath. I guess she doesn't think we're going to look at her parentage.

David Duke already said that Miller is their one good Jewish boy.

A reminder: Trump was elected by people who hate political correctness muddying discourse. That is why instead of talking about a long, drawn out process of bringing family members of settled immigrants into the US they prefer to eschew euphemism and talk about chain migration instead.

Well you may not like it, but you do it like a pro.
