My government worker friends feel I need to pay more taxes, the investments I have to make to save for my meager retirement… while they get pensions with annuity values in the multiple millions handed to them on my dime. You figured all that out from two words? Your powers of deduction are impressive. ---

He told me to go F… myself. Are you sure you didn’t sound like you were calling to gloat? Are you sure you _weren’t_? Was an F-bomb \*really \*not appropriate in response? Don’t kid yourself. Did you also call the Republican counterpart to chide him for the campaign \*they \*ran? Or to congratulate them on choosing the means necessary to achieve the end? ---

> [@Lightnin](#): > > Back when Obama was first running, and the “socialist” word was being thrown around like a frisbee at a Republican picnic, I started to wonder how far back I could search to see when they first started using that epithet for their opponents. 😕 Republicans throw frisbees around at their picnics?

The username **bigdfrombigd** and the troglodyte attitude of the remarks lead me to the conclusion that the “frombigd” suggests that he is from Dallas _aka_ Big Odessa. What inference is to be drawn from the “bigd” part I refuse to speculate. ---

Unless the dog is being groomed, of course. ---

Denver is the “Mile High City”, now more than ever. And Davenport is, well, Iowa. ---

> [@Strassia](#): > > While there are probably plenty of liberals with wacky ideas, there are only two anti-factual liberal policy positions that I can think of with any mainstream backing: 1) Alternative medicine 2)anti-nuclear power The Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994, which started the explosion of “alternative medicine”, was sponsored by Orrin Hatch (R-UT.) The very republican state of Utah probably has more companies making these products than any other. They’re everywhere. ---
