George Will, 'eh?

Well, look in the mirror, Georgie-boy. High ‘n’ mighty holier-than-thou elitist CONservatives like you have been building toward this very result FOR YEARS. THIS unintended CONsequence is what you get when you work for decades to badmouth, undercut, and cripple government and offer public prayers to the tax cut god and preach so sanctimoniously about the pestilence of lazy moochers and the desperate need to comfort the already-comfortable.

THIS condition now is where that selfish, shortsighted jerkitude can lead - and now actually HAS taken form and shape.

THIS is what you and all the rest of us are reaping - from the seeds you carefully sowed and tended and watered and fertilized over several decades.

THIS is what that lame-ass supply-side economics and starve-the-beast bullshit will produce for you.

THIS is the logical CONclusion.

THIS is the “then” that inevitably leads from the “if” in your “if/then” scenario.

THIS is the result you get. Your “god” Reagan and his penny wise-pound foolish gospel of tax-hating and screw the poor and IGMFU worldview (“I Got Mine, F-U”) have led you by the nose through all that pie-in-the-sky to this dismal time.

As you fervent, glazed-over-eyed republi-CONS said with your own slogan blared out to the world during one of your big CONventions (I think it was the McCain/Palin one): “You Built It.”

Happy now?

No DUH!

Er - maybe just “DUH!” In the case of trump supporters - the quintessential low-information voters.

With pleasure, Tobin S.

That’s part of what we’re here for!

Venting always eases the pressure, even if only just a little bit. Commiserating is a good thing!

Yep, sometimes that raw deal turns out to be fresh sushi!

Glad to hear that’s how it’s turning out for you, smirkymonkey!

Some talking head today said the Mueller report is the book.

And not a lot of Americans will take the time to read the book. They need to see the movie. Which is why we need ALL those involved, including Mueller, McGahn, and Hicks, to testify live on camera.

Commander-in-CHEAT.

He’s cheated everywhere, every time. Throughout his entire sneaky-ass belligerent bullying lying scamming dishonest cheating life.

About calimary

Female. Retired. Wife-Mom-Grandma. Approx. 30 years in broadcasting, at least 20 of those in news biz. Taurus. Loves chocolate - preferably without nuts or cocoanut. Animal lover. Rock-hound from pre-school age. Proud Democrat for life. Ardent environmentalist and pro-choicer. Hoping to use my skills set for the greater good. Still married to the same guy for 40+ years. Probably because he's a proud Democrat, too. Penmanship absolutely stinks, so I'm glad I'm a fast typist! I will always love Hillary and she will always be my President.
