At 54, The War on Poverty is working three jobs and *still* can't make the rent on its shabby apartment without having to forgo paying at least one other bill each month.

I like heroes that don't die trying to stop terrorists from crashing an airliner into the Capitol Building.

He also called it 7/11.

He was probably daydreaming about the nachos from 7/11.

I had to cease and desist as well. My yelling was scaring the dog.

Indeed. Nixon was thoroughly detestable. And I continue to harbour a deep and bitter loathing of that murderous shit weasel, Kissinger.

But each and every fibre of my being verily reverberates with seething, all-encompassing and consuming HATRED of that vile, traitorous orange shit stain currently debasing the office of POTUS whilst concurrently soiling and defiling the very fabric of this Constitutional Republic.

Oh, that might be why I still get ads on some sites and then have to reboot laptop.Did not know that.I post often on RS and have tried to whitelist them to turn off adblock there but it doesn't work for me even when I switched search engines. Not sure what is going to happen with their deadline on Sept. 15th.

President Dunce would,of course,clomp all over this anniversary like the oafish nutjob he is but almost as bad are the Controlled Demolition Cultists who despite all evidence being available for 17 years now,traipse around in Alex Jones inspired Black T-shirt uniforms at Ground Zero every year claiming that the Jewish lease holder of the World Trade Center,Larry Silverstein,accidentally confessed on tape that he gave the go ahead order for the FDNY to blow up the Building #7 which had been ablaze since 10 30 that morning.

Thanks for the update. Where did you see Quirky? I remember that FP had posted that she would leave rather than pay or turn off ad block.Just hope we can all find a new place if necessary.

I will stay at wonkette, but not sure about RS. I like so many peeps there, and they do post most breaking news, but if they are going the way of HP, they will lose many of us.

Consider the Patriot Act: lost liberties, true, but also nailed us some drumpf traitors thru the FISA court in the case of Carter Page. And all the emails Mueller got on manthefort, for example. Recorded telephone calls thru ill-equipped back channels. Even before taking office, drumpf was aware that the deep state understood all the traitorous stuff he was doing so he started attacking long ago. Now it's a matter of proving in court what we already knew through other means.

Uh... How in the hell was Afghanistan the “appropriate” country to destroy? They were mostly from Saudi Arabia and bin Laden was in Pakistan, right? I may be misremembering the Pakistan part but as I recall Bush attacked Afghanistan because he wanted to do that, too.

It's almost as if the Brits are a bit skittish about rampant nationalism and militarism taking over a country. I wonder why....

Even the nepotistic crony Ambassador to Canada did better than the orange shitty fool.

He autographed victim photos. With (expected) bonus political exploitation.
