ON THE HOOF
To “No Horsing Around,” those ads are false advertising, though. I’ve been drinking in all types of bars for decades, and never once have I seen a team of Clydesdales pull up with kegs of Budweiser. DISAPPOINTED BARFLY
DONNIE DOWNER
To all of you crowing that Donald Trump is the reason the stock market was up: Do we now get to blame him because it’s down? You can’t have it both ways.
NO JOY THERE
Does anyone else see the humor in “No Joy Here” saying “The Citizen” must be a right-winger because they sound like a joyless person? I guess it’s completely lost on “No Joy Here” that they come off as a bitter, miserable leftist because they find some political angle to complain about in everything.
‘TRUE’ LIES
The tagline on “All Hail Donnie” says “Ditto,” but it should say “Dittohead,” because they sound just like a Rush Limbaugh follower. Donald Trump is not a true American himself, and anybody who thinks that he is not a true American either. The people who are against Trump are actually the true Americans, because they can see that he’s unqualified, incompetent, inept, and that he’s destroying our country. It’s stupid people like “All Hail Donnie” that think he’s actually doing a good job, but these people live in some kind of fantasy land. MEGA DITTO
THOSE RABID REPUBLICANS
“Cynical Voter” talks about “raging leftists” and the memo coming from the House Intelligence Committee. Well, it wasn’t the leftists who were frothing at the mouth saying this was going to blow the lid off of the corruption in the DOJ. It was the Republicans doing that, and if you have been paying attention you would’ve seen that, but obviously you don’t pay attention.
KNOW YOUR HISTORY
“RBG Uses Her Noggin” says Republicans on the Supreme Court are “stupid and corrupt” to say that corporations are people. I’m assuming that they’re referring to the Citizens United decision. If this caller has a problem with that decision on political spending, fine, but they sound like another knowit-all leftist fool complaining that “corporations aren’t people” in the face of 200 years of bipartisan court rulings in this country.
IT’S TRADITIONAL
I wish people complaining about Democrats not clapping during the State of the Union would give it a rest. Go back and watch all of Obama’s State of the Union addresses and look at the faces on the Republicans and the lack of clapping. It’s probably a tradition. GIVE IT A REST
GIVE ‘EM 20
To “Dump The Notorious RBG,” I’ve heard and read more than once that more and more people are calling for the Supreme Court justices to have a single 20-year term, instead of a lifetime appointment. I think that’s a great idea. That way you would know when there was an opening coming up.
NEITHER ... A BORROWER BE
I went to the bank today to see if I could get a loan to buy a new car. The loan officer at the bank told me that the amount of money I have coming in for the year doesn’t allow for the loan amount I’d need for the new car. So I asked the loan guy, “Could you just change my loan limit and I’ll let you know some time when I can pay you back?” He stared at me with this funny look on his face, and I told him I’m only asking more a few thousand more dollars, not trillions of dollars like the United States government just did with the debt ceiling. They turned me down. Can you imagine that – the government can do it, but the people who fund the government can’t do it in their private lives? Something really seems wrong here.
LEAVE RBG ALONE
To “Dump The Notorious RBG,” while I don’t agree with Ruth Bader Ginsberg on much of anything, I will say that it seems like she’s still providing lucid opinions for the court. It doesn’t look great when she’s falling asleep at state events, but if she and other justices are still doing their jobs properly, I don’t see why age should require any additional cognition test.
