I don't know what that means.

Nor do I care. Not even enough to google it.

Then the obvious answer is a resounding NOOOOOOO!

Go ahead, don't bother watching it.

We don't want to watch Pinky and the brain, why do you?

If you don't want to watch it, why do you care if I do?

To get a clue as to where you are coming from. Life ain't pinky and the brain.

Too bad, I need a good laugh every day.

Does the expression "pissing into the wind" mean anything to you?

Not when it comes to fighting for issues that matter.

What about the Syrian refugees of the disaster in the Middle East? The little children already born who you don't care about?
The death penalty? Those issues matter, too. I can't make sense of your posts. You say you are pro-choice. Sounds like you are pro-totalitarian to me, though.

Are you saying that McConnell did not block the Merrick confirmation process?

I think she is saying that Obama did not fight hard enough, which would seem to be true if some of his options were left on the table. Maybe he just gave up. He had a habit of doing that.

Going back to the OP 1/21 massing of femiscists...

Madonna has built her career on being outrageous. It's her brand. That's show-biz. Trying to build a case to disparage the Women's Protest March on anything Madonna has done there, in the past or future, is nonsense.

Unfortunately - and I mean that because I think the vast majority of women were there for valid reasons - people are going to remember the celebs. They ruined it.

Ruined for you maybe. I thought it was glorious.

a reply to: Teikiatsu

so then....
you hate women, am I reading that correctly?

Or just the ones who don't 'behave' the way you, Sir, in your so-called Christian mindset, think they should?

No, ruined in that it what people talk about. 90% of the coverage since has been about idiots like Madonna and Ashley Judd.
Ruined whatever message was there.

LOL!!

Yeah. You know the people who were at the inauguration? The vast majority of them were there for valid reasons. The celebrity ruined it.

Not sure what you mean.

Not sure what you mean.

The celebrity in the spotlight, the TV-Reality-Show Celebrity President.
He ruined it. I'm confident that his supporters really do want what's best from their perspectives. I'm also confident in saying that it won't be delivered, because this man is not a suitable choice.

Oh. You mean your President.
Ok. We can but wait to see if he will do what he said he will do. So far, so good.

With all due respect, I feel his first week is not a good indication of success. He has put oligarchs and business captains in as cabinet members, and 'alternative news' people as advisers.

It can not end well. I wonder if you've actually reviewed his ACTIONS so far....have you watched the committee hearings for the cabinet members? (In the UK, the "Ministers" -- here we call them "Secretaries") I think you should do that. You have good points, but simply saying 'give him a chance' doesn't mean we must ignore what's going on while he's getting his chance.

And it isn't up to me, it's up to all of us. More than half of us are stuck with what we think is a clown show for now. It is his performance we are watching. (And that is what he's watching, too --- his own performance -- but in terms of whether we're nice to him or not. He has no insight at all.)


Dude, he's not the king. We don't do the monarch thing. He wishes we did (and perhaps thinks we do, and he's it) but we really don't.
Eccentric, pampered, out-of-our-league people like your royals (whom I love, by the way) are treated the way he expects to be treated. But see? He's not "royalty", no matter how much he parades around his family or hires choruses and choirs to call up to God that a savior has arrived. That just isn't how we operate. He is still MISTER TRUMP.

He is not "His Majesty", and the 'royal we' - historically used to indicate that God was in the pocket of the Monarch - is not literal.

I think many of the people who voted for him are delighted with his first week. He is doing the things he said he would do and got elected on.
I think it's fair to say these actions are not liked by those that did not vote for him, but they do benefit you nonetheless.
