So there’s gotta be some leverage with McTurtle here. Someone needs to dig deep into her bullshit and ferret out the embarassing and probably illegal shit and tell Mitch to play ball or else she gets it. On the other hand, I could see Mitch throwing her under the bus faster than his head retreats into his neck flap…

That’s Pay per View material right there.

Lucky man. I look up every night it’s clear in the hope of seeing something like that.

I’m with you. I just hope in my lifetime we prove that life exists elsewhere; any kind of life. I’d like to imagine that life is a mundane product of planet formation and we just happen to be stuck in a rather uninteresting sparse portion of the galaxy.

Ha! That was the exact idea I had to explain human’s first contact in my sci-fi RPG. Mine was a couple of astronomy nerds borrowed their dad’s ship to come and see Saturn, whose rings turn out to be extrordinarily rare elsewhere. The ship wasn’t being used because it was malfunctioning and the idiots didn’t know that…

It’s Chriton! We’re all frelled!

Not necessarily. We assume it would be very hard to do these things, but what if they weren’t? We worry about all that’s involved in sending someone to Mars mostly because of how long it takes to get there and back. If we could reliably get there and back in two hours, we could send a couple of astronauts there with…

Catherine Sakai : Ambassador! While I was out there, I saw something. What was it?

Oh Christ would it would it be cosmically bad timing if our First Contact scenario involves Trump.

Maybe she needs some other Dem to be the foaming at the mouth firebrand who is on CNN daily trying to get the gallows built. Play some good cop, bad cop. Then she can work maneuvers, while the other guy is saying what she really wants to say. I see no raging anger from the Dems, at a time where it is clearly…

Well, you can fight dirtier than the Turtle, but . . . well . . . then we’re Russia with their “accidents.”

It would certainly make Mnuchin’s argument about there being “no legislative purpose” for the request of Trump’s return immediately moot.

Only if he got to watch.

I have no idea who any of those people in the photo are, but it was so bizarre that I had to click on it.

I would have been happier if it was a clip of her reenacting the opening scene of The Untouchables; casually strolling around the room cradling the bat until she stops behind Carson and . . . well you know the rest.

That water is fluoridated and will sap our precious fluids! 

“You’ve got to look down that bit or you won’t hit anything.”

He’s the Florida of Presidents!

Yep. It’s past any political calculus or considerations. Trump has shown he has no use for the Constitution or its checks and balances and is daring anyone to tell him otherwise. It’s not time to worry about how many Senate seats we could flip, it’s more about will our country still be a democratic republic in ten…

You forgot the all-nekkid + alcohol strip clubs with hot Eastern European chicks that you can touch.
