You don't like me.
I choose to read your posts for entertainment value but prefer not to engage. Apart from entertainment, I could not possible care less about you.
No go play with your Tonka Toy avatar.

(12,600 posts)Number 2, I never said I don't like you, matter of fact, I enjoy and agree with most of your posts.
I'm sorry you feel that way. but that's your right.
Peace out
Dan.
Stinky The Clown
(67,867 posts)But calling me an asshole for my opinion is not a good way to enter a discussion of which you were not even a part.
Yeah, Dan, peace out.
MarineCombatEngineer
(12,600 posts)I did not call you an asshole, if I had, my post would have been hidden, I said opinions are like assholes, that is a long time saying, and if you interpreted it as calling you an asshole, that's on you, not me, but rest assured, I DID NOT call you an asshole.

(6,953 posts)The saying is opinions are like assholes, everybody has one.
The new-and-improved version is what stinks.

(1,916 posts)read the indictment? The detailed times, days, quoted witnesses don't magically happen. Pages and pages. A lot of time and hard work went into what is one of, if not the biggest political scandal in US history.
There was no delay, and there was no foot dragging.

I tend to agree with Lawrence O'Donnell who this evening suggested that the J6 Congressional hearings were essential in the process of holding Trump accountable. The hearings exposed us to (most of) what the fuck happened re J6. They laid the groundwork for the DoJ.
