It's looking like things are gonna get bumpy...so I wanted to say

THANK YOU DU!!

Yep. That's it. I've come here time and time again searching for a link or a quippy answer to some rightie, who would get me all wound up for one reason or another. Well you guys gave me so much ammo that the same stories are just resurfacing. And while they are *burning* with rage, it's almost too easy when you maintain, no matter what, that these people stick with the FACTS (aside: I bet you every rightie failed the fact/opinion part of the curriculum. Just sayin')

Today I shared something from "Teabonic's" page on social media: "Can you name me one Republican President that has EVER cut spending, cut the deficit, or reduced the size of government?" They are still flipping out on me.

Syria's a mess. But we collectively are embroiled in this thanks to the last administration. While I agree they belong in jail, I am jaded enough to know that ain't gonna happen. Ever. And while bombing for peace is like fornicating for abstinence, there *is* no high road here. We're damned if we do, and damned if we don't.

Whichever way this cookie crumbles, we're in this together, and THANK YOU to those who help other DUers.
