I agree with the concept of bringing the troops home. I didn’t want to go into Iraq, because I knew we’d be there forever. And while we had to respond to al Qaeda, I had similar thoughts about going into Afghanistan. And there’s a lot of places we have troops we probably don’t need them (looking post ww2 and Korea

In Stephen Wright voice "well, yeah, but not consecutive days"

Based on history, it’s unlikely. I’m still surprised that Franken resigned (not saying that it was wrong he did, just that it happened). Maybe if Gillibrand or Warren is involved, but then the BernieBros will complain they’re trying to weaken the field in 2020.

We need to change the laws that allow people to make negligent and/or malicious decisions and be shielded by the corporations.

To quote the great thinker White Goodman, “it’s a metaphor. But it really happened.” Wall is a metaphor for fencing? Is “cement wall” a metaphor for chain link fence in? And I use that in quotes, cause like the Beverly Hillbillies, it's not "cement wall" that'd be really weak. It's concrete, which is made with cement

He did all his dirty deeds in the shadows, and becoming president has dragged it all out into the daylight. Who could have known?

I'd like to think this a final one-finger salute to Trump. Maybe Kelly and Mattis can team up for the "Unloved Generals" tour.

The 10 Democratic votes are to end a filibuster. If the Senate Republicans had put it in the original spending bill, they couldn't have filibustered it. So, go ahead, Don, tell us how it isn't the fault of Senate Republicans.

Two percent of zero, carry the zero, is still zero.

Real question. In dollars, how much is that raise? Even if it’s a billion dollars, which I doubt, that is, let me do some math, less than 1/1000 of what our deficit spending is. I think the federal debt is an issue (know that’s not universally held) and should be addressed. This isn’t it. Try cutting defense, WALL!,

If only he’d tried holding his breath until he turned blue instead!

That's in the Bible. Remember when Jesus healed lepers, blind men, and resurrected Lazarus? It was only after they paid their co-pay. People forget that detail. 

Facts, science and math don't matter to Trump and his supporters. They're the salt of the earth. You know, morons.

I have no expectation of impeachment. I think he'll lose a little support, but not much. I do think the administration will be so tied up with paperwork that it will be even more difficult to function.

I'm confused. I thought these "immigrants" were rapists, murderers, and drug dealers (although, some are good people) which required Wal! to keep out and provide us boarder security. And they're just dropping them off at bus stations, where they'll likely bet on dog racing, humans in traffic, and possibly rebroadcast

When you said Rudy was throwing shit against the wall, I was hoping you meant the Trump kids and spouses.

I'd settle for him dying in prison with John Bolton, another draft dodging warmonger who avoided service because he "didn't want to die in a rice paddy." 

Stocks and the economy aren’t the same, but the market tends to be an indicator of the economy. Stock prices are, to some degree like collectibles. They go up because people think they’ll be worth more in the future, and unlike beanie babies, they will pay a dividend. So if you think the company will be paying out

If he goes with Steel Slats!! I'm thinking a climbing belt like a lineman would use to climb a wood telephone pole. Wouldn't be able to use spikes on the boots to dig in, but might get enough grip with shoes to get over. 

Family is people you wouldn't otherwise associate with
