Mr. Obama is scheduled to speak before the Wall Street fat cats Cantor Fitzgerald later this year. He will be paid $400,000. Oh you 1%ers.

Not surprising, someone else summed it up as the most academic least experienced. The military changed dramatically less focus on war fighting more social experimentation. Those experiments are starting to bear fruit.

BART takeover robbery: 40 to 60 teens swarm train, rob weekend riders

A recent string of robberies on BART trains took a frightening turn when dozens of juveniles swarmed an Oakland station over the weekend and commandeered a train car, forcing passengers to hand over bags and cell phones and leaving at least two with head injuries, witnesses told the transit agency.

So says George often enough.  It is both- annoying and the result of the politics there.
I guess they want to be more like Europe.

Another Socialist success story- beware the 'community organizer'.

Hold the celebrity enablers of Venezuela's hellhole accountable

What holds Venezuela together these days? According to the New York Times, this state is held together only by an encircling ring of death-squad gangs, who serve as its enforcers. These are the community organizers known as 'colectivos' who ride and circle around menacingly on motorcycles, and shoot randomly into crowds to generate terror.  I saw them myself in Caracas in late 2005, and they were scary. Now, they are engorged with drug cash and legitimized by the state. Who could have imagined that this tontons macoute situation would be the logical conclusion of Chavista socialism?

Don't forget Cali's star Representative-

The corrupt California Democrat is an unlikely change agent.

Are you freaking kidding me? Thirteen-term Democratic congresswoman Maxine Waters, Beltway barnacle permanently affixed to USS Government, is now the fresh-faced “rock star” of the Democratic party.

“Auntie Maxine” is stoking the resistance, inspiring Millennials, combating hate, crusading against corruption, and invoking the counterinsurgent cry to “stay woke!”

I do not have enough guffaws to give.

Just when you think the leftist activists couldn't stoop any lower- they find a way to do just that.

Godsend program for victims of illegal alien crime becomes heartless opportunity for Leftist ‘pranksters’

<snip>
President Trump delivered on an important promise, and the self-proclaimed ‘resistance’ will sabotage at any cost.

Those who lost loved ones to acts of violence committed by illegal immigrants have finally been given a voice by the Trump administration â€" and now scores of cruel pranksters are trying to take it all away.
</snip>
...

<snip>
Here’s a word to the pranksters. If you’re too stoned, unimaginative or addle-brained to come up with your own story of alien abduction, try this one.

You witnessed an alien beat someone with a stick, then strangle and torture him until he died. Then the alien tied the victim’s body up, tossed it into a field like a sack of garbage and set it on fire.

Give it a rest. You don't have to gallop after every dog whistle screaming about 'leftists'. If someone is suspected of a crime you report them to the police, you don't need some shadowy body. It all sounds a bit sinister to me, reminiscent of the way they try to get you to rat people out in dictatorships.

lol but if it was a shadowy body dictating who can't have a gun, you'd be ok with that.  Or maybe I'm confusing you with Pud.  If so, my apologies.

No, you "give it a rest", Pally.

Please don't feel obligated to respond to every post someone makes using the word 'leftists'. That word seems to be the most predictable 'dog whistle' for some people on this site. It is not like your response actually persuades anyone anyway. 

Go see if Willie Nelson will listen to your bilge, sweetie.

'Liberal' is another trigger word.  Pud goes crazy when I use that word.  Come to think of it, I should not use that word at all because it hardly describes them.  Liberal, they ain't.

I only point it out for your own good. Your shallow rhetoric only impresses your fellow morons. Bleating on about leftists betrays a lack of education and an over- exposure to rabble-rousing talk radio.

True! This is why free speech is important- you have to discuss your differences not just react to them.

The language is thoroughly polluted now- thanks to those lefties.

I've managed to rub along OK without needing to carry a portable cannon around with me, although I know that some of you over there need extra reassurance. It's just a pity you can't play with your bang-bangs without harming innocent people.

I reused your own words not due to my lack of education or for my own convenience, but this vapid style of response seems to be what you understand and appreciate. Keeping it simple for simple minds. I hope you see how easy it is to turn it around and point the finger back at you. I expected more from you. Be more like Pud- he's at least trying.

This lofty dismissal thing you have going at the moment only works on someone if you have their respect first, otherwise it looks a bit desperate. But by all means carry on. I haven't come across a Trump supporter yet who doesn't ooze bitterness, so I'd rather you vented your nasty old spleen on me than some hapless (possibly Mexican) bystander.

You cannot possible believe that StarrMtn oozes anything resembling bitterness.

You should get out more. Anti-Trumpers wake up to a bottle of Angostura.
