He was on Morning Joe throwing a complete hissyfit about all these people and security making it hard for him for him to walk down and get a paper and a coffee. He was pure Hunger Games Capital city.

I guess he didn't have that problem this inaugural day.

the unsupportable and indefensible.

The whole world other than Russia is saying no, this is not going to work.

My concern is how he will react day to day with being told he is not acceptable.

even those on "the other side".

How 'bout ,"It's 'Saurday, Dumbass"! or "It's Saturday, Stupid"?

Obnxious women can be insulted WITHOUT invoking their gender

Just as obnoxious Minority Men Can be WITHOUT invoking race,

But I guess that would require more effort than WE are worth...Even to supposedl '"progressives".

How sad.

Those who only get opportunities like fast food and wal mart jobs probably tend to forget that some people work full time jobs that have the weekends off. :/

"Bitch, it's Saturday." probably blew that womans mind. WHAAT? WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN???

where Lady Violet, played by Maggie Smith, expresses complete befuddlement at the concept of a weekend. The servants all work seven days a week and are on call twenty-four hours, and the gentry are not tied to regular working hours; most of their time is spent on what we'd call leisure activities.

I'm sure Suburban woman likewise has no concept of regular working hours.

The type of people who have drivers usually want working people to work 7 days a week. Her driver was working so why shouldn't the rest of us.

The fact that she was there instead of at work just doesn't matter to people like her.

Can't be with all those limo riding, chauffeur-hiring black celebrities!! Can:t be concerned about Black Lives Matter or experience any racism if you have money, right,?

Maybe that will explain it to you in a manner you can understand, duh.

That person could just as easily have said "It's Saturday, Stupid"!

or something like it, It IS what the protester would have have said if that conservative was a MAN, but, oh no..Along comes a woman and she HAS to have her sex mentioned, ieven though it has ZILCH to do with the issue. If you're honest with yourselves, you'll admit that it's rno more "acceptable" to use sexist slurs on conservative women than it is to use racial slurs o n conservative people of color....I don't see anyone here doing that, and of course they should not.

Please consider the similarities between these two oppressed groups in our society. ..Race and Gender are both ""conditions of birth" those born into them can NOT help. Like people of color, they should be judged for the ' content of their character', and not the bodies they were born with.

I know that, in our culture, it's not always easy to keep our criticisms and insults race and gender neutral, but progressives, rarely do the easy thing. Instead, we do the right thing, or at least try to.
