		<description>&lt;I&gt;Actually, it wasn&#039;t even a post to you; it was a post to someone else. &lt;/I&gt;

BBBWWWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

So, if I post to someone else that you are a lying bitch, it&#039;s NOT a personal attack because I wasn&#039;t even posting to you!??

BBBWWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA

&lt;B&gt;&quot;You really are a sad simple creature, aren&#039;t you..&quot;&lt;/B&gt;

		<description>&lt;I&gt;Actually, it wasn&#039;t even a post to you; it was a post to someone else. If you can&#039;t handle someone pointing out the FACT that your posts contain lies, then you have choices. Either stop posting repetitive lies or grow a thicker skin.&lt;/I&gt;

And you continue to lie..

Post the comment that was a lie.

You can&#039;t because all you ever do is lie..</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;I did say you lied, but that is a FACT. The name calling is all your handiwork. :)&lt;/I&gt;

No, it&#039;s NOT a fact.  It&#039;s a personal attack..

Thank you for proving me correct once again...</description>

&lt;i&gt;But when all is said and done, the FACTS are clear..

We&#039;re having a nice and semi-civil discussion and debate.. 

Victoria shows up and FIRST thing starts in with the personal attacks and name-calling... &lt;/i&gt;

I didn&#039;t call you a name. I answered Don&#039;s post with a comment that included no name calling.

Oh, come on. Mischaracterizing my post is all you&#039;ve got? I wasn&#039;t remotely asking JL for help... that&#039;s actually one of your signature moves... you do love your projection.

My post didn&#039;t ask JL for any help... just pointed out the FACT that every time I&#039;ve seen you leave whining, it was because JL posted a fact that hurt your fee-fees. :)</description>

&lt;i&gt;Yea.. Suuuure ya were.. :D Yer always so full of shit.. &lt;/i&gt;

You speak of people you know nothing about and claim to know what they do and what they think. Claiming to know what people think and do are actually your modus operandi, and it&#039;s utter drivel and nonsense and... yes, absolute lies at times. 

Please continue to put words in my mouth and those of others and claim to KNOW what we think and what we do; please do so at every chance you get. Please continue to refer to me and others on this board using derogatory names and profanity. You&#039;re proving my point, and it&#039;s awesome. :)

&lt;i&gt;ANd if I go back months and months I can point to lies and bs in your comments as well...

But, as usual, you are too stoopid to follow simply instructions.. &lt;/i&gt;

Actually, you repeated that very same commentary I linked to in my comment on this page at comment [146] and comment [203], you&#039;ve actually repeated it ad nauseam as if repeating the lies over and over magically makes them come true. To be fair to you, some of them are your opinion, but some of them are just repeated lies that have been debunked here already by multiple posters... your ever present dearth of ideas. 

&lt;i&gt;So, I told you to post the lies in THIS commentary..

But you can&#039;t because you KNOW that it is YOU who is the liar here, not me.. :D

Put up or shut up, bitch.. :D &lt;/i&gt;

You actually don&#039;t KNOW what I think and what I do... nor anyone else on this board for that matter, and typing out your drivel over and over and claiming that you do know what people think and do does not and will not magically make it a fact and actually says way more about you than it does about anyone else on this board.
 
I was here when you left like a whiny victim when JL spoke the truth about Trump borrowing themes from &quot;He Who Must Not Be Named&quot; from the book he kept at his beside, I was here when you left again like a whiny victim when JL said that you were proving CW correct in his assessment... albeit with a detour to help friends and fellow Texans who were literally under water with Harvey, and I&#039;ll be here when you leave again for whatever whiny victim reason you come up with. I ain&#039;t going nowhere and never will. :)</description>

Is there *ANYONE* here who thinks it&#039;s a legitimate criticism to complain when the FLOTUS wears high heels from her residence to a waiting chopper??

Anyone??? &lt;/i&gt;

I will go on record stating that was ridiculous. Who cares what shoes she wears? I don&#039;t care what she wears in public as long as it&#039;s not her birthday suit. I think a lot of that &quot;shoes&quot; and &quot;clothes&quot; commentary is in response to the right-wing criticism of the Obamas for their clothing choices: the tan suit, the sleeveless dress, etc., etc., etc.</description>

		<description>Kick,

&lt;I&gt;I actually was around when you weren&#039;t here, but I&#039;m sure it surprises no one here that you&#039;d lie about that. I never left. I did go help with the hurricane we had here in Texas... popped in to post between trips down to help... you may have heard of it? I returned when I dropped my friends home in Houston.&lt;/I&gt;

Yea.. Suuuure ya were..  :D  Yer always so full of shit..  

&lt;I&gt; Here&#039;s hoping you and/or your friends aren&#039;t in the path of a hurricane any time soon.&lt;/I&gt;

Sweethart, I have been in the path of hurricanes many times...  And we are again.  A Cat 5 monster...

Just another day.. Ho Hum...

&lt;I&gt;And, of course, she can&#039;t point to ANY lies in this commentary, which proves it&#039;s her that is the liar...

Oh, yes, I can easily point to the lies in your repetitive commentary and have done so before... as have many others here.&lt;/I&gt;

ANd if I go back months and months I can point to lies and bs in your comments as well...

But, as usual, you are too stoopid to follow simply instructions..

You claim I came back into THIS commentary with  &quot;the same old cut-and-paste comments replete with the same repetitive lies he posts over and over&quot;...

So, I told you to post the lies in THIS commentary..

But you can&#039;t because you KNOW that it is YOU who is the liar here, not me..  :D

Put up or shut up, bitch..   :D</description>

Oh, you had to respond twice to the same comment; thank you ever so much for letting me know it bothered you. You need to develop a thicker skin; you do so resemble that which you claim about others.

&lt;i&gt;We were having a nice comfortable debate and discussion and then she has to barge in and spoil it.. &lt;/i&gt;

Gee... you resemble that remark. If you&#039;d like to know what it feels like to be having a discussion with someone on this board only to have it hijacked by you then you should write down that nugget of your above. It seems you have no problem doing that which you&#039;re whining about like a victim. :)

&lt;i&gt;And, of course, she can&#039;t point to ANY lies in this commentary, which proves it&#039;s her that is the liar... &lt;/i&gt;

Yet you continue repeating the same drivel as if it&#039;s new commentary and hasn&#039;t been discussed on this board ad nauseam, and that says more about you than it does anyone else. &lt;-- Nice to see you adopt my language in your latest posts to other posters... you repeating it back to others lets me know what is effective with your ilk. :)

Want more lies? I&#039;m not reading this drivel again, I&#039;ll just skim it and post one to prove my point:

&lt;i&gt;And Nancy Pelosi, of all people, is the ONLY Democrat who has condemned antifa terrorists and terrorism...&lt;/i&gt;

I have my own personal little stalker.. :D &lt;/i&gt;

And Michale returns with his usual whining and delusions of grandeur... reminds me of BLOTUS... poor thing, such a &quot;victim&quot; of everyone. *LOL* :)

		<description>&lt;B&gt;The administration’s handling of Harvey objectively seems to be going well so far. Supplies were positioned for distribution ahead of the storm. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has publically praised the Federal Emergency Management Agency as well as the White House, saying the state was “getting absolutely everything we need.” Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards said he had nothing to ask of Trump after meeting with him during a presidential visit to Harvey-affected areas Saturday.


The administration has been swift to turn on the money as well. Trump sent a request for $7.85 billion for Harvey recovery to Congress Friday night and on Saturday amended the Texas disaster declaration to increase the amount the federal government would pay for storm-related debris removal. In the category of nice gesture, Trump’s re-election campaign emailed 10 million addresses a note encouraging donations to a list of charities including the Red Cross, Salvation Army, United Way and local animal shelters.

In the absence of significant things to complain about, some journalists have turned to pettiness.

Multiple outlets including The New York Times, Washington Post, Vanity Fair, and Vogue criticized Melania Trump for wearing high heels from the White House to Marine One when departing for Texas last week, apparently assuming she was sporting her flood gear. One writer for refinery29 – which bills itself as “a modern woman’s destination for how to live a stylish, well-rounded life” -- called the first lady “Flood Watch Barbie.” Several commenters had to update their snarky critiques when Mrs. Trump emerged from Air Force One in the sneakers she had obviously planned to wear in the disaster zone.

The fact that she was going to change shoes en route was available to any reporter worth that job title — The Washington Examiner’s Caitlin Yilek reported early that Trump’s spokeswoman told her the first lady had a different pair of shoes to change into. But with hurricane assistance going well, these reporters were a little desperate . “Criticism of the ensemble must have reached somebody in a position to right the ship,” said The Daily Beast’s Erin Gloria Ryan, stupidly choosing an interpretation of the outfit change that fit her narrative despite the White House having explained hours before her report that sneakers were the game plan the entire time.&lt;/B&gt;

And another system JOSE, was projected to turn northward and stay in the ocean, but it&#039;s on track to follow in Irma&#039;s wake...

The GOOD news is that, with all the churning caused by Irma, Jose probably won&#039;t shape up to be a very big storm..

This is looking like 2005 all over again...</description>

		<description>James T,

&lt;I&gt;I&#039;m waiting patiently for Mr Trump to inaugurate the torrent of winning he assured his adherents was imminent.&lt;/I&gt;

You mean like illegal immigration being down 80%+??

You mean like American confidence way WAY up???

You mean like Business Confidence way WAY up???

You mean like pulling out of that HORRENDOUS TPP???

You mean like pulling out of that even MORE horrendous Paris Climate Con???

Your problem is that Trump IS winning but you just don&#039;t like the wins...

President Trump is doing EVERYTHING he was hired to do...

&lt;I&gt;I don&#039;t blame Trump for his lack of accomplishments, he&#039;s not an ideologue with a clear and unassailable set of goals.&lt;/I&gt;

Despite ALL the facts to the contrary  :D

&lt;I&gt; Trump is more frequently painting a picture of a man bewildered by his station, making it up as he goes along.&lt;/I&gt;

And yet, he is one of the most successful businessman in history.  So successful that Lefties are afraid to even say his name for fear of giving him credit for his success...

And yet, he dispatched with great ease 19 of the most qualified, most well known and most well funded GOP candidates in history..

And yet, he DEVASTATED the biggest, meanest, most experienced and most well funded political juggernaut in the history of politics..

So, on the one hand, we have your bigoted opinion unsupported by facts...

On the other hand, we have stone cold FACTS that prove your opinion wrong..

Oh gee... Which one should I believe...

Stone cold fact???   Unsubstantiated opinion....????

Hmmmmm  It&#039;s a tough call....</description>

		<description>&#039;You don&#039;t want to give credit to Trump for ANYTHING, so you will always find a reason NOT to...&#039;

I&#039;m waiting patiently for Mr Trump to inaugurate the torrent of winning he assured his adherents was imminent. Blind faith and dashed hopes might appeal to some, but facts and action pay the piper. Trump and his &#039;razzle-dazzle&#039; demagoguery has done little but supply his core supporters an endless diet of protein and promises. He bemoans that the left-wing has him stymied at every turn, yet turns on his own party when he feels his &#039;ideas&#039; are being subverted.
 John Donne wrote, &#039;no man is an island entire of itself&#039;... Trump manages to piss on his own parade without help from anyone, he honestly believes his own spins, doubles down on egregious utterances and stumbles from one catastrophe to the next, seemingly oblivious to the festival of eye-rolls from all those around him.
I&#039;d love to congratulate this individual for something, anything, I&#039;ll even settle for a good hair day, but he&#039;s yet accomplish anything worthy of applause. Pencil-whipping sober regulations into oblivion, squabbling with the press and crayon tweeting can&#039;t be considered triumphs. 
I don&#039;t blame Trump for his lack of accomplishments, he&#039;s not an ideologue with a clear and unassailable set of goals. Trump is more frequently painting a picture of a man bewildered by his station, making it up as he goes along.

Gods, it&#039;s great to know that President Trump has our backs...

NOT-45&#039;s response would have been, &lt;B&gt;&quot;Frak you, people!! Yer own yer own..  I am going to the Hamptons!!&quot;&lt;/B&gt;  :^/

Looks like my predicted track of Irma is going to be dead on ballz accurate..</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;About half of those are the same old cut-and-paste comments replete with the same repetitive lies he posts over and over as if they&#039;re new and hadn&#039;t been discussed ad nauseam. *LOL*&lt;/I&gt;

We were having a nice comfortable debate and discussion and then she has to barge in and spoil it..

And, of course, she can&#039;t point to ANY lies in this commentary, which proves it&#039;s her that is the liar...  

Funny how that is, eh...</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;Agent Orange, Mr Trump was sporting a $40 (on his web site) hat when he first visited Texas, the profits of which were no doubt going to feed his struggling and cash-strapped family. I think it&#039;s premature to pat this guy on the back for his altruistic intentions until his taxes are revealed, and his largesse confirmed...&lt;/I&gt;

Of course you would think that it&#039;s premature...

You don&#039;t want to give credit to Trump for ANYTHING, so you will always find a reason NOT to...

As I said, that says more about you than it says about President Trump...</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;Do you see a trend here? I do. When Michale answers, every horrible act of Trump&#039;s is justified by some imagined horrible, or very Democratic, act done by Obama, or Hillary, or Democrats, in that order of preference.&lt;/I&gt;

Not at all.. I am simply pointing out the FACT that ya&#039;all (NEN) don&#039;t really CARE about any &quot;horrible&quot; act of Trump&#039;s because you gave a pass to your Dumbocrats for their equally horrible acts..

It&#039;s not the act that bothers you..  It&#039;s the fact that Trump allegedly did it..

This is documented fact..</description>

&lt;i&gt;DACA was illegal.. President Trump had no choice. He had to end it or the courts were going to end it.. &lt;/i&gt;

Yes, Trump had a choice.

&lt;i&gt;At least, when President Trump ended it, he could do it in such a way that Congress can step up and do something about it.. &lt;/i&gt;

Congress could have done something about it already; they didn&#039;t need Trump or anyone else to give them an opportunity &quot;to step up and do something.&quot;

&lt;i&gt;Now all that has to happen is that Democrats work with Republicans and President Trump to fix things.. &lt;/i&gt;

Seems to me like Trump has chosen not to work with Democrats and then blamed Democrats and Republicans for not getting his agenda passed... and then there&#039;s that pesky fact that Trump never delivered on that health care plan he promised... nor any of the other plans he promised because he has none that I&#039;ve seen... and then expected Republicans to come up with something he would just sign whether it kept the promises or not. Expect this pattern to continue, and expect Trump to keep blaming Democrats and Republicans for not enacting Trump&#039;s plans that never existed.  

Why can&#039;t the Trump sycophants admit that Trump has brought nothing in the way of actual policy ideas to the table and is blaming Democrats and Republicans for his shortcomings?</description>

&lt;i&gt;Name me another POTUS who gave up their salary AND donated 1 million dollars OF THEIR OWN MONEY to disaster relief?? 

You can&#039;t.. &lt;/i&gt;

You can&#039;t either until the current POTUS actually donates the $1 million. If Trump gives any of his personal money, even if it&#039;s less than promised, he should definitely get credit for it, but you wielding it like a sword against other presidents is kind of ridiculous when The Trump Foundation is currently under investigation by the State of New York for illegally self-dealing. It ain&#039;t a very pretty picture, if you know what I mean. Little chip-off-the-old-con Eric&#039;s foundation was found doing the same thing in the process.

https://www.forbes.com/sites/danalexander/2017/06/09/new-york-attorney-general-looking-into-eric-trump-foundation/#6742ec8a1075

So the media and CW are finally reporting that the New York AG is working with Mueller. Actually, that&#039;s been going on for quite awhile now. Who knew? *LOL* :)</description>

The situation is what it is. We have it in our power, each of us, to make this comments section a fun and informative place for debate and discussion of the issues.

We can do all we can to elevate it or bring it down. 

That is your choice.</description>

&lt;i&gt;Last Friday&#039;s talking points without Michale- 48 comments.

This Friday&#039;s talking points with Michale- 158 comments and counting. &lt;/i&gt;

About half of those are the same old cut-and-paste comments replete with the same repetitive lies he posts over and over as if they&#039;re new and hadn&#039;t been discussed ad nauseam. *LOL* 

Subtract the monotonous drivel and conspiracy theory nonsense and post those numbers. ;)</description>

		<description>Hmm. The filter apparently trapped my response - a list of items on which I agree with Michale, and it didn&#039;t even include links. The fates are against goodwill today, Liz.</description>

		<description>Okay, Liz, I&#039;ll play it your way for a second. Here are all the things that I can think of that Michale might agree with me about:

&lt;i&gt;Hillary was a poor candidate&lt;/i&gt;, not because she couldn&#039;t have done a better job, but because she couldn&#039;t relax, and speak from the heart. She did once, in New Hampshire in 2008, and it almost nabbed the nomination for her then. Not since, though, not once.

&lt;i&gt;So far Trump and his generals have handled Iraq and Afghanistan correctly&lt;/i&gt;, save for the dick-wagging with the cruise missiles and giant bomb. I agree with Bill Maher when he points out that we&#039;re in Afghanistan, actually, to be a local speedbump for Pakistan and Iran, the way our troops are in positioned in South Korea to keep an eye on North Korea and China. I also agree with the MSNBC commentator who said today that even Bernie might have made similar strategic decisions after getting the Presidential briefing on US options in that part of the world.

Trump&#039;s last visit to Houston was a good one, where he was able to put his prior experience as host and casino greeter to good use. He wasn&#039;t, in my opinion, as empathetic as (Bill) Clinton, but he did okay. He needs to channel this side of himself more, because he&#039;s not bad at it.

&lt;i&gt;Trump&#039;s choice of Kelly as chief of staff was a good pick.&lt;/i&gt; The White House has calmed down quite a bit since the banishment of Bannon and Gorka and Priebus, all political, rather than pragmatic personalities. I suspect Stephen Miller is the next to get the boot. Kellyanne Conway, being Rebecca Mercer&#039;s sole remaining tether to the White House, will probably be ignored rather than axed. It remains to be seen whether Kelly can translate the WH&#039;s new calm into legislative success, because:

&lt;i&gt;Mitch dropped the ball on healthcare, pure and simple.&lt;/i&gt; Trump made it abundantly clear that he&#039;d sign anything that reached his desk, even broaching himself the possibility of a bi-partisan solution. McConnell wasn&#039;t having any of it, being too partisan and self-serving himself to yank the chains of his right flank by cutting a deal with Schumer. Ryan can&#039;t be blamed for it, because he all but plowed a path to a quick conference, which should have been a slow pitch over the plate for the majority leader.

There&#039;s more, but I&#039;ll pause with that.

There you have it, Liz. We&#039;ll see if it &#039;elicits something better&#039; in the form of dialogue. I&#039;ll bet you 10 quatloos that Michale won&#039;t come up with a list like that.</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;So we can carry on all day ... &lt;/I&gt;

Well, that is an option but, it&#039;s not the only one and certainly not the best one.

Just try to ignore the crazy stuff and try to elicit something better and, if all fails, just move on.</description>

		<description>Do you see a trend here? I do. When Michale answers, every horrible act of Trump&#039;s is justified by some imagined horrible, or very Democratic, act done by Obama, or Hillary, or Democrats, in that order of preference.

So Trump found the not-so-sweet spot of the GOP base: be the opposite of Obama. Where he was kind, be cruel. Where he was generous, be obtuse. The alt-right in particular didn&#039;t just disagree with Obama, they HATED him, and saw Hillary as possibly worse. This is why Trump has trouble criticizing the alt-right: despite their despicable brand of politics, they&#039;re enthusiastic in their hatred, and that&#039;s a big basket of votes.

So we can carry on all day, and the answer will be the same - Obama did something, or Democrats did something that DEMANDS that Trump do the opposite. Everything&#039;s to blame on Obama (except the economy, of course). It&#039;s dull-witted, but easy to remember.</description>

&lt;I&gt;The worst 45 &quot;pretend charity&quot; disgrace was when he gatecrashed the opening of an Aids Children&#039;s benefit as though he was one of the large donors then left without giving anything:&lt;/I&gt;

But there are lots more sleezy antics from 45 - even in this election he announced he was going to donate to Vets, then only did after he was fact checked by the Washington Post.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Did Odumbo donate DIRECTLY to the Sandy Relief effort AT THE TIME of the disaster??&lt;/i&gt;

Yes.

And do you remember what 45 did? He offered to donate money to Sandy victims only if Obama would release personal documents. When his &quot;deadline&quot; expired, 45 kept all his money and donated nothing.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;From the above Forbes link, Obama gave $118,500 to disaster relief.&lt;/i&gt;

Did Odumbo donate DIRECTLY to the Sandy Relief effort AT THE TIME of the disaster??

No he did not..

So quit trying to move the goal posts.  Yer embarrassing yerself..</description>

		<description>Don,

I think you should read through the comments on this thread again.

While it is too bad our little discussion didn&#039;t attract a larger crowd, your Stern analysis ... heh ... doesn&#039;t seem to apply here.</description>

You&#039;re not saying that, are you Don?</description>

		<description>That doesn&#039;t make a lot of sense, Don. But, then again, an analysis based on the dynamics of the Howard Stern show wouldn&#039;t, would it?</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;We&#039;re talking specific disaster relief donations like Sandy and Harvey..&lt;/i&gt;

From the above Forbes link, Obama gave $118,500 to disaster relief.

Fish. Barrel. Shotgun.

Do try to change the subject, it is just getting sad now.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;The $1.1 million of donations Obama declared on his tax returns also do not include the $1.4 million he directed the Nobel Committee to give 10 charities after he won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2009.&lt;/i&gt;

Shooting fish in a barrel. I expect a subject change now.</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;Don&#039;t you do at least a perfunctory internet search before you set yourself up for a pratfall Michale?&lt;/I&gt;

When you move the goal posts, how can I avoid it??

We&#039;re talking specific disaster relief donations like Sandy and Harvey..

NOT generic yearly charity donations that EVERYONE does....

How much did Odumbo personally donate to Sandy relief??

A big fat &lt;B&gt;ZERO&lt;/B&gt;

Odumbo couldn&#039;t be bothered...</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;And ya&#039;all have stated that ya&#039;all respect General Mattis..&lt;/I&gt;

The comments made by Secretary Mattis about using overwhelming force against NK if it threatens the US were anything but measured, as many are characterizing them.

I just lost a little more respect for this general.</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;Serena Williams is a great tennis player, does that qualify her to run the country?&lt;/I&gt;

Maybe.. Maybe not..

But calling her an incompetent buffoon is not accurate either..

She is obviously VERY competent in her chosen field..

&lt;I&gt;If 45 is so skilled at business, why does he have to hide his tax returns? &lt;/I&gt;

If Odumbo was so smart and intelligent why did he have to hide his school records??

Works both ways..

&lt;I&gt;You don&#039;t know anything about his finances other than what he tells you, and you know he lies constantly. Mueller knows, and he probably knows about the cash flow and assets and liabilities, which would be the part I&#039;d personally like to see. That is also why he has brought the NY state into the investigation - he is going to line them all up on state charges that 45 can&#039;t pardon.&lt;/I&gt;

Yea.. And there was a 98% chance that NOT-45 was going to be President..  :D</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;An incompetent buffoon doesn&#039;t become a very successful businessman. So successful that you are afraid to even use his name..&lt;/i&gt;

Serena Williams is a great tennis player, does that qualify her to run the country?

If 45 is so skilled at business, why does he have to hide his tax returns? Maybe he is worth nothing and is running on huge loans to the Russian mafia. We don&#039;t know because he is the only President in modern history to hide his finances and refuse to divest himself from his businesses.

You don&#039;t know anything about his finances other than what he tells you, and you know he lies constantly. Mueller knows, and he probably knows about the cash flow and assets and liabilities, which would be the part I&#039;d personally like to see.

&lt;I&gt;No more juvenile than all the cutesy names many of ya&#039;all call President Trump...&lt;/I&gt;

		<description>&lt;I&gt;Yeah, &#039;bout that. Firstly Huckabee is starting to walk that back - she is saying that it isn&#039;t going to be his personal money. Hmm.&lt;/I&gt;

Cite???

&lt;I&gt;45 is giving 1/10,000 of his net worth. Equivalent to Obama standing up and announcing he was going to give $100 to victims of Hurricane Sandy.

Still as impressed with 45&#039;s generosity?&lt;/I&gt;

Did Odumbo announce ANY personal donations???

No he did not. 

ANY giving is worthwhile and a good thing..

President Trump is giving..

Odumbo couldn&#039;t be bothered..

You can denigrate President Trump&#039;s kindness all you want but that just says more about you then it does about him...</description>

Fine.

But, if that was sarcasm, Balthasar, it was pretty lame sarcasm. Geesh.</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;Or he could just be an incompetent buffoon. Which he is.&lt;/I&gt;

An incompetent buffoon doesn&#039;t become a very successful businessman. So successful that you are afraid to even use his name.. 

An incompetent buffoon doesn&#039;t best 19 of the most successful and experienced and well-funded Republicans ever..

An incompetent buffoon doesn&#039;t DEVASTATE the biggest, meanest, most experienced and most well funded political juggernaut in the history of the planet..

So, on the one hand, we have your biased opinion..

And on the other hand, we have FACTS...

Hmmmmm geee... lemme think..  :D

&lt;I&gt;I asked you at least three times during the run up to the election for the top three achievements you would judge 45 on and you only came up with one: making you feel good about how he supports cops. &lt;/I&gt;

And yet, I was utterly and completely correct about the election and you were utterly and completely wrong about the election..  :D</description>

<p>And yet, I was utterly and completely correct about the election and you were utterly and completely wrong about the election..  :D</p>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Like I said above.. If President Trump can&#039;t do ANYTHING good or right in your eyes, the problem is not President Trump...&lt;/i&gt;

Or he could just be an incompetent buffoon. Which he is.

You like to deal in absolutes, &quot;ANYTHING&quot;, &quot;always&quot; etc, but I only call him out as an incompetent buffoon when he is an incompetent buffoon. And he gives me lots of opportunities.

Sure he is doing some things that aren&#039;t either incompetent or buffoonish, but remember, he wasn&#039;t chosen to achieve anything beyond making his marks feel good.

I asked you at least three times during the run up to the election for the top three achievements you would judge 45 on and you only came up with one: making you feel good about how he supports cops. And even when he tries to do that (e.g. his speech to the NYPD) the cops themselves reject his &quot;bustin&#039; heads&quot; view of their role.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Name me another POTUS who gave up their salary AND donated 1 million dollars OF THEIR OWN MONEY to disaster relief??&lt;/i&gt;

Yeah, &#039;bout that. Firstly Huckabee is starting to walk that back - she is saying that it isn&#039;t going to be his personal money. Hmm.

Also, 45 claims to be worth $10,000,000,000. Let&#039;s say Obama was worth $1,000,000 when he was President.

45 is giving 1/10,000 of his net worth. Equivalent to Obama standing up and announcing he was going to give $100 to victims of Hurricane Sandy.

Still as impressed with 45&#039;s generosity?</description>

		<description>OK  Here&#039;s my prediction for Hurricane Irma...

Friday night, Irma is going to skirt the southern end of the Bahamas as a strong Cat 3, possibly a mid-range Cat 4...

Irma will make landfall in South Florida, Key Largo as a strong Cat 3 somewhere around midnight, probably earlier on Sat, the 9th...

Irma will track up the spine of Florida, slightly west of center as a weak Cat 3/strong Cat 2..

Sunday night late will put Irma in Winter Haven area of FL as a low Cat 2...

Monday 11 Sep noonish will see Irma in the Big Bend area between Tallahassee and Lakeland as a Cat 1...

Twelve hours later puts Irma in the Atlanta GA area as a Tropical Storm..

That&#039;s my prediction for Hurricane Irma..  

Let&#039;s see how it stands up...</description>

Looks like Irma might take the southern path...

		<description>&lt;B&gt;Washington (AFP) - The United States will launch a &quot;massive military response&quot; to threats from North Korea, Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis said Sunday.

He spoke after President Donald Trump met with his national security advisers following a test of what Pyongyang said was a hydrogen bomb able to fit atop a missile.

&quot;Any threat to the United States or its territories, including Guam, or our allies will be met with a massive military response, a response both effective and overwhelming,&quot; Mattis said.&lt;/B&gt;

Isn&#039;t it funny how General Mattis sounds EXACTLY like President Trump...

And ya&#039;all have stated that ya&#039;all respect General Mattis..

So, that means ya&#039;all must respect President Trump.. But you just can&#039;t admit it..  :D


&lt;B&gt;&quot;It&#039;s OK, I understand... This ain&#039;t no Never Never Land..&quot;&lt;/B&gt;

		<description>&lt;I&gt;So 45 and Kim Jung-Un are having a crazy-off with nuclear weapons. What can possibly go wrong?&lt;/I&gt;

If Odumbo hadn&#039;t been so stoopid as to ignore the NORK problem with his &quot;Strategic Patience&quot; bullshit, then we wouldn&#039;t be in this mess...

&lt;I&gt;&quot;Because Republicans would rather see everything go down in flames before they will work with President Trump..

They have stated as much..&quot;

There, fixed it for you.&lt;/I&gt;

No, you didn&#039;t &quot;fix&quot; it for me. You fixed it for YOU, to continue propagating your delusional bullshit.  :D

Yea, there are a few Never Trumper morons amongst the GOP...  

But the entirety of the Dumbocrat Party have stated as a whole that they will never work with President Trump... (I just LOVE typing &quot;President Trump&quot;...  :D)

So, congrats Dumbocrats.  You just sealed DACA&#039;s fate...  It&#039;s going down in flames and ALL because Dumbocrats put their ideology before people...</description>

There, fixed it for you. Sadly, 45&#039;s own party are the ones calling him out on this. Like they did for him supporting neo Nazis (&quot;fine people&quot;) and ignoring his stupid wall when he insists they pay for it despite telling everybody, and even having his sheep chant &quot;Mexico&quot; to make sure we all knew who was going to pay for it.

45&#039;s problems start at home. When your neighbor is setting his own home alight with gasoline you make sure your home and family are safe first before you try to put his out.</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;So, Trump is going to end DACA.

So much for the promise of America ...&lt;/I&gt;

DACA was illegal.. President Trump had no choice.  He had to end it or the courts were going to end it..

At least, when President Trump ended it, he could do it in such a way that Congress can step up and do something about it..

Now all that has to happen is that Democrats work with Republicans and President Trump to fix things..

Ohh..  DACA is doomed...

Because Democrats would rather see everything go down in flames before they will work with President Trump..

They have stated as much..</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;These days I just smile at the self-delusion - the belief that a crude and crass contractor from Queens can sweep into Washington and change 200 years of accumulated culture.&lt;/I&gt;

Yep.. You much prefer the Establishment Swamp where nothing ever gets done..

Sorry, my friend.  Those days are gone.  The Establishment is going down.. Make sure yer not holding on to it so tight you go down with it..

&lt;I&gt;So I&#039;m less worried about Trump every day. In the end, his tenure will be a short, if embarrassing, speedbump on the road to a more perfect union and a better world.&lt;/I&gt;

Which President Trump will bring us...

You lost, Balthasar..  Quit whining about it..</description>
