Maggie's FarmWe are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for. |

Re: New York City, Which Uses A Lot Of Fossil Fuels, Decides To Sue Fossil Fuels Companies Over Climate Change Scam
https://legalinsurrection.com/2018/01/exxonmobil-prepares-to-sue-california-cities-over-climate-change-claims/ - Exxon is suing the suers over their failure to disclose to their bondholders. Can't have it both ways, claiming on the one hand that there's this catastrophic imminent threat and on the other hand dismissing or ignoring the threat. Well, it's not like de Blasio's being hypocritical. He's a socialist and like all good socialists knows that all animals are equal but some are more equal than others.
All the gasoline, gas, and oil companies should tell DiBlasio "goodbye and thanks for all the fish". Also, "Don't call us; we'll not call you."
Re: Ted Kennedy had promised no immigrants from shithole countries
Wait! Is she saying that Ted Kennedy might have lied? Of all the noive! Ted Kennedy's Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 was designed to do exactly what it is doing; to flood the country with people who would need lifelong welfare and would thuis be Democrat voters for generations. He knew and the Democrats knew this would alienate middle class and working class Americans and that it would take boatloads of immigrants to achieve this sea change in their voter base. We are now living with their destructive and incredibly effective anti-American legislation.
Our MSM has been complicit in a coverup of the massive negative impact of illegal immigration and legal immigration from "shithole" countries since 1965. It took events like Kate Steinle's murder to defeat the blackout of negative news about immigration. The stats are terrible and we have been shafted by Kennedy and his cohorts on the left. Our prisons are full of immigrant criminals and our cities are full of immigrant criminals not yet convicted. Our welfare costs are out of control pushing us towards bankruptcy with massive numbers of immigrants on welfare. We are the laughing stock of the world because of our birthright citizenship and perhaps a 100,000 pregnant women a year come to the U.S. just to have a baby born here giving them and their relatives a foot in the door for immigration. Our SS system is overloaded with immigrant retirees many of whom did not need to complete the SS requirements that citizens are by law required to complete. All across the country if you are hit by a uninsured driver it is more likely than not that it will be one of Kennedy's legal or illegal immigrants who does it. Ditto for DUI drivers. Ditto for rapists. double ditto for terrorist attacks. Kennedy's legacy lives on and may well sink our country into the hellhole that describes much of the world.

Watching WKRP re-runs w/ my son. Haven't watched this particular episode yet, but the one where a hired consultant comes in to revamp WKRP (and sell his programming services). Andy has the entire staff act crazy (crazier than usual), so the consultant has a huge report to hand to Mother Carlson. That's a good description of how Pres. Trump is handling the hostile news media. That's the one where Jennifer is the smart efficient one and Bailey sings the NESTLES jingle?
Yeah, and Venus is in the hallway threatening Johnny Fever. I think Herb and Les appear super-competent too.
"N-E-S-T-L-E-S...Nestle's makes the very best... Chaw-clate." "Who is more insane, Trump or his critics?"
Seriously has anyone ever considered evaluating Nancy Pelosi for mental illness. The Queen of the House's latest comment is "crumbs! Crumbs! Let them eat crumbs!" Many of her appearances before the press had to be suppressed; hidden from the public because she is so insane. Why is the MSM covering for her? Monetary value of High Ed: I recall a poster of a guy with an open garage and five expensive cars inside...and complaints about the clear monetary value of higher ed.
Late night TV: Not interested. Media bias: What bias, say the Dems. California: Let it become the hellhole it wishes to be. The EU media is already covering the "immigration" news correctly..with a pillow. And a blackout. Sweden: When will the Vikings return? Nancy Pelosi is really smart, Like Obama, the smartest person in the room. After all, she warned us not to shout "wolf" in a crowded theater. That is very wise advice.
I missed that.
Yeah, that is good advice. Glad she alerted me to that. President Trump's bias for the vernacular seems to lead to statements that can be misunderstood. I would have recommended saying
"Members of low-trust societies in failed nation-states indifferent to the rule of law." Calling a sh*thole a sh*thole is poor form, old bean*, poor form, and it's just not done. All it does is excite the sh*thole apologists, doncha know? * old bean? Boy Genius? you decide Amen. And I wonder about the advisablilty of anyone wearing a Pussy Hat to lecture me on vulgarity.
