    Re: collusion with Russia. Has the complete Mueller Report been released, or are we still going with Bill Barr's version? As for the laptop, since HB never worked for the government in any...

    The Trump Thread

    heron replied to Tweety's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    This almost sounds disingenuous. There's a long-standing pattern of detours into squabbles over the validity of any particular source. Those debates tend to turn into long, boring snarkfests that...

    That's rich, being lectured about "hate" after all the damage done to this country since the inception of the Southern Strategy, Gingrich's "contract with America" and Rove's "durable Republican...

    Most of the bots seem to have wandered off to greener pastures. 'Bye, Feliicia. Meanwhile - the Committee's work is still paying off. Too bad the congressional magadonians flounced off into...

    What caught your attention in the world today?

    heron replied to toomuchbaloney's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Addendum to my previous post: The discussion referred to above, which took place in the local gay newspaper, got quite ridiculous. I stopped following it when some idiot argued that celibates...

    Ummm ... no. I don't speak for TMB, but as a registered independent, I believe that elections are not a beauty contest. My vote depends on the candidates' previous performance in office,...

    Gonna have to respectfully disagree that we are less ignorant now than in times gone by. In fact, a case could be made that we are more ignorant than our ancestors. The only difference is that...

    If anyone claims they couldn't have guessed, they are lying. I remember writing about trump, complete with citations, and what a deadbeat he is during the '16 election. Of course, I was drowned out by...
