This is hilarious and an excellent way of making the point but, even though I know you're kidding, I want to point out that there's no "too big for condoms" but there absolutely is "may be too big for a regular condom to operate at peak effectiveness."

This is what I was going to say. My ex-husband worked for one of those fun DoD/national labs/military-type of jobs (being intentionally a bit vague) and he had to travel a lot for work and never got much of a say in when he went. Even though his travel was usually to test sites that I wasn't allowed on, if they were

Brush clearing is an American-Cowboy activity. For real men.

Good to see some people in the party are sane enough not to think absolutely EVERY. SINGLE. THING. Obama does is somehow anti-American, something no other President has done and a total disgrace to the country. We need more of that attitude.

Not sure how old you are, but this is a time honored tradition in American politics and media. They went after GWB for his golfing, his mountain biking and clearing the brush on his ranch. They went after Clinton for those trips to The Vineyard and for golfing. They even went after Bush I bc of his trips to

Really. The Army (I'm guessing you're Army base on Ft. Hood) provided air support when W was at his ranch? I had always assume it would just be a regular presidential Secret Service detail. I bet that cost a pretty penny. But W was a fiscally responsible republican so I money/tax dollars don't matter. It's only when

Velociraptor steaks.

It's just one of those "tasting menu of 25+ tapas-style dishes only" thing. I'm 100% positive the food is awesome if you can afford it, but yeah...there's always going to be a market for super expensive meals like that.

To be fair, it did make the news when G.W. Bush fell off his Segway, but that shit was hilarious.

Just remind your mom that George Bush was incredibly impressed with a supermarket electronic signature pad.

Yeah, because he took more than 400+ days to vacation, which is more than any other president in recent history. But even if that weren't the case, the framing of the dialogue is ultimately key here: people questioned why he was taking so much time off. No criticisms or questions were raised about how that time off

Actually I quite like historical tales of white presidents having dinner parties that turned into White House ragers.

if he'd come out like a WWF star with fireworks and heavy metal music, it wouldn't have been over the top.

On a somewhat related note, a friend's mom posted an article from a known conservative click bait site about how egregious it is for Obama to go to Hawaii with his family during the holidays. How it means he's dragging along his entire staff to such a horrible, miserable destination when they should be with home their

Honestly, this racism goes beyond anything I would have expected back in 2008... Apparently it's only newsworthy when a black person:

Now playing

Isn't there only one real response to any Republican who complains about President Obama's golf habits?

And now I've ruined a singer's career, lost a record company millions, and cost this little boy his precious time.

All that driving, huh? You're just a run of the mill con man. Moving from town to town, scamming people since you were fifteen. But you're tired of running.

Almost every single one I have ever been forced to set foot in looks like a rhinoceros with crippling diarrhea tore through it moments before I got there.

Oh criminy, add this to the list of weird shit that my smaller dog will react to with comical intensity. Also on the list? Mindy Kaling's voice on the Office.
