It is page 10.17
What I find possibly a tad worrisome is the thing on page 2
Make the trains run on time … it’s a reference to Mussolini.
Santorum was born with congenital stupidity.
Daily Double:
President Trump suggests anti-Semitic threats across U.S. are coming from within Jewish community
Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro, who was part of a group of state attorneys general meeting with Trump at the White House Tuesday, relayed Trump’s comments about the bomb threats to Buzzfeed News, explaining that the commander-in-chief seemed to indicate he felt some of the threats were being made from the inside, as part of a potential effort “to make others look bad.”
DeVos said black colleges were pioneers when it comes to school choice
It would be difficult to find a statement she could make that would be more farcical.

I mean, they DID give African-Americans the choice of going to college.
That state senator from Iowa who a while back proposed hiring college profs based on political affiliation? Well, turns out he got his business degree from a Sizzler chain.
I used to be proud to be born and raised in Iowa. Iowa used to rank as an early adopter for quite a few civil rights-type milestones. Now, the only achievement is an unholy union between Kansas economics and Wisconsin political bullshit and union-busting.
Republicans in the House have produced their Obamacare replacement bill.
But only certain Republicans can see it. Behind locked doors.
Melania thinks that people who are losing their health care should rely on natural remedies.
Only because they haven’t figured out a way to charge you for mud and leeches. Yet.
Wait, why is there no post for March 1st? Did the GOP give up stupid for Ash Wednesday?
I have a theory… which is mine… which can be found here.
According to Congressman Mike Bost (R-IL), the town hall meetings where constituents have been taking him to task on Obamacare repeal are like “the cleansing that the Orientals used to do where you’d put one person out in front and 900 people yell at them.”
In a rare example of a Republican showing something resembling shame, he has since said it was “a poor choice of words”.
“Orientals” :dubious:
I have read that article several times, and I can in no way relate it to what you think it says.
This paragraph kinda hints at it. Or not. Definitely sounds lefty-wooish.
How The Cheeto allows such language from [del]one of his minions[/del] his wife, I’ll never know.
I agree. Rick Kitchen’s interpretation goes beyond embellishment and begins shading into invention.
Rick seems to see Mrs. Trump as a shallow, privileged enemy of publicly subsidized health care. And so he spins her rather innocuous and supportive remarks in the setting of a “health garden” at a children’s health center into some sort of “let them eat cake!” abrogation.
I wish we could avoid this sort of ideologically filtered perception of issue advocacy that depends on whether the speaker is seen as friend or foe.
Seconded. I HATE it when my fellow left-leaners do this, it lends credibility when the right-wingers squeal about how “both sides do it”. I unsubscribed sites like Addicting Info and Right Wing Watch because of subtle dishonesty. They don’t outright make things up ( like the right wing fake news sites do) but they constantly do things like changing a word to make a stupid quote sound even stupider and their click bait titles often don’t say what the article itself says.
And you don’t need to do this. The real stupid and evil is so prevalent that you don’t need to stretch the truth, it speaks for itself.
And I don’t really care about how Kellyanne sits but Trevor Noah cracked me up with his observation that if there had been a black grandmother in the room she wouldn’t have been able to sit on anything for week.
Context is everything. The present Mrs. Trump visited the hospital, read to children, and said nice words, as is typical of politicians and their spouses. This hospital installed a green roof as a nice place for dying kids to visit. It was primarily funded by a dead democrat, and there are wives from both parties and Ms. Clinton who are involved with it, so in the limited context, it was entirely appropriate for the present wife of the president to attend and say the nice words in the context of the nice new garden.
In the broader context, it was appalling that the First Lady of the United States of America talked about how nature helps healing when at the same time the President of the Unites States of America is dismantling both health care and environmental protection, which will result in the deaths of people, including children. While her husband is setting about killing people by cutting off their health insurance and allowing their air, water and land to be contaminated, she says nice words about there being a nice place for the nice children to sit while they die provided that their parents are lucky enough to have health insurance to cover their being in a hospital in the first place.
In the broader context, the hypocrisy of her words and behaviour was utterly disgusting. Fortunately, she is irrelevant to anything other than her immediate family.
When did Melania Trump become responsible for President Trump’s policies and positions? President Obama could’ve been a fat, cheese dip eating, Pabst swilling cretin who wanted to cut funding for school lunches and subsidize pizza vouchers instead and that still wouldn’t have made Michelle’s “Let’s Move!” program hypocritical.
Has the actual Trump Administration staff slacked off on hypocrisy and idiocy lately or something? We gotta go after FLOTUS for supportive words she was invited to give?
