Pulling the wool over your eyes until after the midterms.
Ask yourself: If it's so fucking beautiful, why the delay?

The rich have been threatening to leave New York because of taxes all my life. Some of them do go to Florida or Texas, but then they discover that Florida and Texas are Florida and Texas.

Trump's actions speak louder than words... he's guilty as fuck.

Back in the last century, I briefly dated an Israeli. He told me that even in (1990s) Israeli parliament, there was a veneer of "We're all Jews, shouldn't we be able to come to agreement?" yet the reality was (old joke) two Jews: three opinions.

I think it's high time we acknowledged that there is no longer a single Jewish voting bloc. There is no longer any such thing as "the Jewish vote," for good or ill. I say that as a Jewish American.

This is how we know you're Canadian. In America, we're not allowed to do that anymore.

Good on ya!

I have lived in 7 US states, moved to Colorado 15 years ago. This is now the longest I've lived anywhere.

Things *are* getting *me* down, but at least Colorado's still beautiful. You could not pay me to live in Dixie.

W/you on the atheists--we don't need threats to have a moral compass.

Donnie had 16 yr old girls working as personal masseuses at Mar-a-Lago.

EXACTLY.

And that's why #metoo spread so fast. EVERY woman has some experience that's part of this pattern. I guarantee it.

I don't think math works that way.

Holy fuck! It's raining fish and fire!

Seriously, lightning strikes cause many of the wildfires here in Colorado. I've never seen so many lightning strikes in my life.
