and it won't gain us much now. I think adversaries who don't extend an olive branch, aren't willing to meet us half way, continue to threaten,brag and boast, as they did back then and through the ensuing years deserve any pain we can deliver.

I don't intend to try to inflict pain unless I encounter the usual bullshit those people have been delivering for years. Thank god I'm not an elected official.

One even pulled a shotgun on one of our state senators during a walk. And when we run into one of those pricks they are mean, angry, rude and just plain racist pigs. So why would I not care if they are politically taken behind the wood shed. They need to be electorally whipped until they whimper.

I can't wait to hear what he will have to say on his show on wed

I remember the following after 2012
1. He used to have this sound bite "Dedicated to making Obama a 1 term president" that was taken off the air the day after the election
2. He started talking about amnesty , which he promptly started walking back about a month later. It felt good to hear him talk about Amnesty. I knew he has to be hurting. LOL!

31. I Am An In Country Vietnam Vet. I Had So Many GOP Fingers In My Face During Recall Protest.
Mon Nov 7, 2016, 12:10 PM
Nov 2016

I participated for close to 30 days in a protest against a recall of one of or Senators in Colorado for supporting background checks and limited magazines. Our Senator resigned as a result. It was ugly.

I went out openly as a veteran against gun violence in support of our senator on a main road. They had their little neo nazi gun nut petition gatherers their with their supporter. I and out supporters went through days of abuse 8 hours a day. They called the cops on us numerous time.

I had the fickle finger of fate put in my face numerous times. I was even surrounded by these gun nuts one day and one put a camera right up into my face. And I had one bastard cuss me out. Yet I did not respond the whole time.

I served in a combat unit that suffered 27 killed during my tour. Luckily I was the company clerk and I always looked out for the guys. Made sure I did the best I could to serve their needs in my capacity. Yet it was a hard year.

These same bastards support Trump hands down. So I have been nose to nose with crazy ass GOPPERS who want to shoot everything up.

It looks like we will re-gain control of the Senate and at least gain some seats in the House.

Especially personally to Donald Trump, rubbing salt into his inevitable narcissistic wound that he'll suffer when he goes down in defeat. He earned it.

But also to all the racist, misogynistic, homophobic, hypocritical-fundie, authoritarian white trash pieces of shit that formed his fan base and made his events look like Nuremberg rallies. Their tears will be sweet, sweet nectar.
