Trump isn't "dumb". He just isn't an intellect. He's canny. He has a lot of knowledge in a few very restricted areas. (although considering the bankruptcies and the fate of Trump U perhaps he has somewhat less knowledge than I give him credit for). I should hope he would outdo Obama being as...

He's got his highly active alt media, and a slavish following who by this point are obviously willing to pump him up, no matter what he says or does. Another day, another classic to add to the list... "My fellow Americans, I truly believe that the first 100 days of my administration has been...

Exactly. The subject being what an intellectual pinhead Trump is.

Well, there is now :)

No one has ever seen his academic records. Good lord amighty I cannot believe anyone still clings to this. How do you think he graduated Columbia and Harvard (magna cum laude)? Because he was a polished black guy with a big toothy grin? Trump is Trump, one thing that many people like about...

More deflection in defense of the male version of Palin. Christ they were both even reality TV show stars *lol* Hey, how about a whole thread dedicated to Obama's 57 states comment? :) That might help. :*****:

"This is more work than in my previous life. I thought it would be easier." "Who knew the government was so BIG!" "Nobody knew healthcare could be so complicated" :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm: When has Trump ever expressed humility?? He's not humble. He's a pinhead.

**** I've known all kinds of incredibly intelligent people who sometimes hem and haw some while making a statement. It's usually the product of thinking while speaking - of attempting to better or more carefully organize what they hope to communicate - rather than just blurting out idiotic...

Jesus H. Christ :facepalm: Sadly I think you're being serious about this, which if true is completely delusional. This statement took place at a Joint Chiefs Of Staff Ceremony. The "Michael" he's referring to is Admiral Michael Mullen, who was in attendance, and who he first mentions more...

Yeah I heard him posturing about staying out of foreign entanglements too, but doing so at the same time he was heavily saber rattling about China and Iran. So none of this is much of a surprise to me. The only good news (imo) is that his secretary of defense and national security advisor are...

Well let's see. As a democrat, last week you included me by association with an enormous demographic who are no better than cockroaches. This week the comparison is to a horrific virus. At one time it seemed to me you were one of the most accessible, reasoned conservatives on this board. Not...

In this case we have an elected leader who is more popular with his people than any US politician who has been fighting our enemy for about 6 years. Actually, we have an elected leader who's approval rating is the lowest of any previous modern president at this point in their administration...

Pretty much spot on, imo That AP interview was a complete frightmare. One mind boggling Palinesque moment after another. It's not like his opposition has to alter or selectively edit his words to damn, humiliate or shame him. He does it all by himself, and he does it routinely. And yes, his...

Brilliant! Yes! A one party system! Welcome to Pyongyang :bowdown:

It was a fucked up, dismissive thing to say and had either of the last 2 AG's flung anything similar in a red state direction you'd have had found it completely unacceptable. Obviously it isn't just an island, in the pacific. It's a US state, deserving of the same recognition for being so as...

Ah. So it was in reaction to this: "I really am amazed that a judge sitting on an island in the Pacific can issue an order that stops the President of the United States from what appears to be clearly his statutory and Constitutional power." - Jeff Sessions What a fucked up, dismissive...

I seem to recall you trashing me for using whitehouse.gov as a source once, for a very similar recounting of "achievements". Interesting how one's standards change :)

Well we could argue all day about that and never reach an agreement, so let's not bother. IMO our "stature as a superpower" took an extraordinary beating under Bush and has been in the rebuilding process ever since. But I see how this works. When Georges (for instance) offers an opinion it's...

That actually captures the feeling pretty well. A real shame his opponent was also severely flawed. Never imagined we could possibly have a presidential election with two such repugnant candidates. A very sad state of affairs. Yes actually millions of us do care what the rest of the world...

I'm kinda with Ronnie on this one. Trust but verify. Or actually verify but verify. That turned out to be greatly lacking in the N. Korea situation. If it does with Iran too then I'll be perfectly happy to see them reduced to a rogue nation again under the burden of heavy sanctions. But for now...

It's in bad taste in either case, but really (for me) not worth muscle cramping over. Heck I might even be tempted to flip Hillary the bird at this point. as an aside: what a terrific meeting of minds! :) PS: Didn't Nugent say he'd either end up dead or in prison if Obama won re-election? He...

you say they just need a job or a hug. :rofl: I'm not saying anything of the sort. Guess my point blew right by you. Thanks to Johan for expanding on it. lol @ "extreme vetting" WTF is that supposed to be? Trump tried to explain it as some kind of test designed to keep out anyone who does...

Just curious... Have any of the conservatives here actually read Bin Laden's letter to America? If so do you doubt in any way the authenticity of its tenets? If not then why do you keep falling, over and over and over again, for exactly the kind of strategies and traps he outlined he'd use...

I for one am shocked ISIS is attempting to provoke Trump, Le Pen etc into reacting as they hope they will. Who'd have thunk it?

You're right of course. We should never attempt to establish international inspections and such. We should just drop a MOAB in Afghanistan and watch as Iran and North Korea become catatonic from shock and awe.

That's a fact :boobies:

Agree. There's no more striking drive than taking highway 1 all the way from LA to the Canadian border. Would like to spend my retirement in The San Juan Islands. Maybe Orcas.

Not at all. The time consumption (and tedium) derives from having to repeatedly untangle all the incomplete or otherwise twisted history conservatives often hold so dear. In Sanger's case, many such individuals have received their education about her from sterling historical references such as...

And please...save us both the ****** time of posting the (by now) standard selectively edited Sanger quotes that supposedly prove she was actually a racist who wanted to exterminate blacks. I'm weary of addressing and correcting that particular convoluted conservative effort at character...

Omg now you're really diving into the disinformation pool. Sanger, in combination with black leadership from the civic to the national level, helped black communities overcome those long held fears and begin using standard birth control measures. Which is of course a major reason she was so...

Yeah, he certainly has. Apart from the examples I already listed: Oct 2007: "Look at Putin -- what he's doing with Russia -- I mean, you know, what's going on over there. I mean this guy has done -- whether you like him or don't like him -- he's doing a great job in rebuilding the image of...

Well, according to all the reports I've heard, both here and abroad, including from locals, that MOAB only ****** isis fighters. Not any of those opposing them. Which is good with me. As you know I don't agree with you that they are US mercenaries. I believe they're exactly who they present...

Plus you'd be cheating on Michelle Bachmann. It's never a good idea to cheat on an insane person! Your thingie could get sliced off and thrown in a field somewhere :eek: LOVE pictures two and three. Just **** me now :heart: Pic number 1 - meh, still gorgeous, but that last set of implants was...

Mr. P Trump has been a waffler for a very long time. He waffled on Iraq. He appears to have waffled on Syria. He's waffled on abortion, etc. He was fully onboard with the Libyan intervention. But I didn't see him as a peace candidate, so unlike you I don't really feel he's waffled that much...

When Trump praises the great job Putin has done with Russia He has. Several times. Lavishing praise on his leadership, he has all but drooled over how magnificent Putin's approval ratings are among his people. Wanna compare Alex Jones to Jeremiah Wright? Ok well in brief Jones professed to...

Oh man what a crock. Liberals don't have a RACIST PAST to atone for. That's all on your philosophical brethren. Own it indeed, because they have certainly earned it for you. It doesn't make you individually a bad person. You're most likely an exception. But again, to contend that racism hasn't...

...that Alex Jones is in fact a "performance artist" - or in other words a fake/phony according to his very own attorney. A conspiracy-theorist-for-profit. http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/nationworld/ct-alex-jones-infowars-custody-battle-20170417-story,amp.html And yet there's one rather...

Party schmarty lol Thankfully most of us have become aware of this silly, convoluted semantical game conservatives have adopted to try (rather pathetically actually) to shift responsibility away from their philosophical brethren. The truth is that the darkest history of rascim in America...

You'll note I stated them as "liberal" achievements. As you're no doubt aware Abraham Lincoln and his party were definitely the liberals of that era. Had to fight tooth and nail (including a war that ****** 600,000 americans) with conservatives to achieve that end. Than after his death (at the...

Makes sense. Not to denigrate all things conservative, but liberals are primarily responsible for most of the landmark societal progress we've made as a nation from its inception. End of slavery. End of ***** labor. Women's suffrage. Civil Rights Acts, etc.

^^^^^ She and The First Lady are my kryptonite. If I think about being in the middle of an Ivanka/Melania sammich I find myself distracted from what a nightmare Trump is. To hell with MOABs, aircraft carriers and missle strikes. He needs to send the two of them to N Korea to do some up close and...

Oh supa :facepalm: I guess if VZ looses due to the "artistry" of the other photo we could ask the OP why he didn't chose a more artistic photo of VZ. Only about a million to choose from :dunno: Does anybody know Yulia has an extremely obtrusive tattoo spread across her right abdomen? This...

Beach Babe

Oh god yes woe are we what a "nightmare" the United States is...not! Whatever happened to the ****** national race wars so many of you conservatives assured us were coming over the Zimmerman verdict, and the non indictment of Officer Wilson in Ferguson? The deepest recent fracture between...

I'm not sure what kind of informing the MOAB did? I guess maybe the 36 bearded mercenaries we took out indicates the rapid destruction of ISIS Trump promised has now been achieved? Or maybe that the rest were so shocked and awed they'll just throw in the towel?

Good catch, Bob. Hey, all I said was that I thought the chances were "very slight" And that the investigation is ongoing. If you wanna keep posting that article I'll just keep posting this one...

First degree creeping jihad :thumbsup:

Georges, this thread was posted as SATIRE :) There isn't any evidence to indicate, nor is there even anyone suggesting, that the Clintons are involved in this death :) I just made it up, all by myself, for fun :) Why? Because it seems like whenever anybody dies suspiciously in New York, Arkansas...
