Absolutely! There's a two-word response to all these assholes: YOU FIRST!

If they want it that badly, let them suit up and go out there and put their asses in harm's way for their country. Skin in the game should be a requirement!

Welcome to DU, QuestForSense!

Glad you're here! Now there's one way to simplify this one. If limbaugh's against it, it must be a good thing! Whatever limbaugh likes I automatically know to despise. And if he badmouths it, I know it has to make sense, or be ethical, or moral, or fair, or just, or be rooted in the real world.

Oh man... that long ago...

MAN. That night catapulted Dianne Feinstein onto the national stage because of how controlled and poised and strong and steady she was as a San Francisco Supervisor, I believe, when she announced to the press that Moscone and Milk had been shot. After running the City for awhile, the Senate beckoned.

Damn. That was such a shocking night. The news she bore was soooooo bad, so horrifying. And it led us into a whole new world of the dreaded "Twinkie Defense."

What a curse that was! Really, we have yet to live it down.

She's my hero! I hope we see and hear more from her in the future.

I hope she lands some really GREAT jobs with lots of clout and influence in the future! We need her - and more like her!

AND he singled out "trickle-down" by name. And said it was bad!



Clearly somebody who doesn't pray to or believe in "Supply-Side Jesus." Well whaddya know!?! This lifelong Catholic is impressed!

Welcome to DU, mcdeavitt!

Glad you're here! I've looked into it - stuff you can grow in your basement provided you have the proper set-up. It's really rather fascinating!

Pardon the coarse language, bigdarryl, but just fuck 'em.

And fuck that beast Robert J. Kerns, 66, too!

I see his name is not readily available in the OP - one has to go to the link. In case one doesn't have enough time, I'm naming the perp SOB here.

Robert J. Kerns, 66. And a high-ranking Pennsylvania republi-CON, at that.

I bet this is exactly what's up.

But the good part is - one less knuckledragger monopolizing and polluting the airwaves. I realize there are still about 152,749,886 of 'em on the air but ANY reduction is a good reduction.

Just a tiny sliver of one. OOoooooo... let's all get REEEEEEALLLY upset!!!!

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.
