Morality Thugs. I REALLY like that!

Cuz that’s EXACTLY what they are.

THIS!

It HAS TO BE batted back down. If we say nothing, or do nothing, or offer some sniveling passive nothingburger like "I'm not gonna dignify that with a comment..." that WILL be interpreted as "see? They have NO comeback! WE must be right, then!" and "well, they haven't said anything... must be true!"

We HAVE TO respond.

Dammit, I can't remember which female Republican complained about some statement or accusation made against her gang by whining in outrage "we can't respond! We can't respond!" I remember that because I kept thinking "who the hell WANTS you to?!"

Oh the unfairness of it all... "we can't respond!" Waaa waaa waaa...

So do I!

And not just some photoshopped image like we've seen before. The REAL thing.

Everything and anything, I hope!

Seize it ALL!!!

Just. DO. It!

I took it the same way you did, ShazzieB.

Some people have different levels of sensitivity and some people have different levels of what's funny.

I guess one could say this is the ear/listener version of "eye of the beholder."

Yeah, that's what I'd say to her and A.G. Garland!

So DO SOMETHING!!!!!

Or

DO SOMETHING, DAMMIT!!!!!

Thanks!!!! Just did.

Then the answer is simple: don't be one!

What do your principles tell you? What does your conscience tell you?

April 19, 2022

Works for me!

But then again, these days anything that screws the Russians works for me.

Sorry to hear about your loss, JHB.

You are loved and appreciated here, and it doesn’t matter how long you need to take. Just come back when you can.

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.
