He will be seventy eight. That’s pretty old for a man.

that’s been a damn slur for the last  8  70 years.

Nobody said “solely”.

I can’t explain it, but the SM never really did it for me. However I did realize after it was too late for editing that I should have rounded out the list with a C6 for road trips.

For now!

My All Citroen dream garage:

I mean, it’s not like the Republican party ever backs away from an extreme position for fear of offending liberals. Meanwhile the Democrats frustrate and exhaust their base trying to get the “moderate Republicans” (BOTH of them!) to like us.

Canada just signed a free trade agreement with the E.U. At the time, no one imagined that the U.S. might withdraw from NAFTA, but at least now we have access to another market if they do.

I agree with everything you say. By omission I didn’t make it clear that I think the tweet IS racist. It at the very least favours deference to racism in staffing decisions. “Yes, of course” (commenter’s name) called me out on this also.

What you did there... I’d rather not see it!

“Not every Trump voter is a bile-filled racist. But most every bile-filled racist at the poll voted Trump.”

I think maybe you might have misread some of what I was saying, and reading some of Sydergawd’s replies to you I can see how maybe I should be pushing back harder against him. “yo”? Really?

Not sure if being sarcastic?

Hearing about Leonard Cohen damn near gutted me.

I am an old. No shame in asking.

Do you think?

Okay. Though I suspect that however much we back burner the so- called “identity” issues, Fox News will still accuse us of playing the various “cards”. I understand the concept of a strategic retreat. I’m just not sure that not calling out actual racism, sexism and heterosexism where they exist is the right strategi…

Sanders lost the primary, but do you think it because of his age? (your original comment and my response was about the relevance of the age in presidential candidacies)

I gotta hand it to them: Republican ratfuckery skills are exemplary.

Achieving your later five points (which I wholeheartedly agree with) does not require enacting your first. If you only mean emphasis in messaging, fine. But if you mean in policy, please don’t ask people with minority identities to go to the back of the bus.
