Is it not Cue-Anon?
A “Q” level clearance isn’t such a big thing anyway, if it’s the same as the “Q” clearance I once had. I worked at a secure government facility in the 1970’s, with a thousand-or-so employees and we all had to have a security clearance to work there. The “Q” clearance seemed to be the standard basic level of clearance for the masses, that everyone there had. I think there were higher levels of clearance for some of the really sensitive stuff.
…which again, not surprising that the Qanon idiots think it’s better than it is. This has been explained to them before, but I’m sure most people here know how well explaining things to idiots usually goes.
That’s how I’ve always pronounced it.
Rumor is that Q is Dan Scavino, Trump’s former golf caddy turned White House social media director.
How DARE Nancy tears up that patriotic SOTU speech!
Scroll about ten tweets down to Susan Hennessy’s tweet - I like the politico article she linked about the delegated “tearer-uppers” trying to cover for President What Rex Called Me.
It is pronounced “前嫌” (typically romanized as “qian xian”), which means something like resentment/grudge.
I stand corrected.
They’re “tapers”.
ETA: Not tearer-uppers.
'Tapers" are deadheads with recording equipment. They can also be angles on machine shop stuff.
Or a type of candle.
Also tapirs, a tropical mammal resembling a hog.
…and probably shouldn’t ignore the Rupert Pupkin-y type of taping as well the other kind of taping, which then of course gets really steamy.
It’s “Blithering Idiot”.
Not even that. Q clearance is issued by the DOE and deals with atomic stuff, both the kind that goes bang and the kind that generates electricity. While a person with Q clearance also has also Top Secret Compartmented information clearance – the level I had in the Navy – he or she would have no more access to the stuff I knew than I would to the innards of the latest hydrogen bomb. Clearance does not confer access carte blanche to everything. As always that is on a need to know basis.
Saying the quiet part out loud:
Brit Hume from Fox News: The idea that rich people are running the country is a conspiracy theory.
Fox News’ Brit Hume Says It’s a ‘Conspiracy Theory’ to Think Billionaires Are ‘Running the Country’?
Yeah, I’m with this. Don’t even bother to pronounce it correctly. Screw ‘em.
Yeaaaah, it’s the gardeners and dishwashers who are running the country?
Well of course. Rich people are leaders and innovators and job creators and are therefore responsible when things go well, but not when things go wrong. That’s just common sense.
Things Romney needs to watch out for:
- Workmen setting up a pike outside RNC headquarters
- Any event where one of the guests flies in from Saudi Arabia and brings his own bone saw
- Seeing Trump approach him while they are both walking down Fifth Avenue
The gift of an umbrella.
