You have no gravitas. I suspect no one takes you seriously. And you're apparently in denial of the fact that an ignorant, mentally ill, would-be fascist is in the Oval Office. So sorry, we won't be debating anything. I don't "debate" people who lie and whose reasoning is faulty. I't a waste of my time. I have a very good bullshit detector.

Kind of like putting Neil Gorsuch on the opposite-of-Supreme Court.<br /><br />Find another job. <br /><br />There is not "always room for honest debate about policies," Asswipe. Not when the government is a fascist one. There were guys like you in Nazi Germany going on and on about "room for debate." And in Stalinist Russia.<br /><br />You don't have to look further for what you call "personal attacks, mocks, ridicule of personal appearance and exclaiming what a terrible person one is [it's called HATE]" than ...<br /><br />Donald J. Trump! <br /><br />Whether he's MOCKING a reporter with cerebral palsy ...<br /><br />or PERSONALLY ATTACKING people every day ...<br /><br />or RIDICULING people's appearances and women's menstrual cycles ...<br /><br />and going on about how amazingly talented athletes and movie actors HAVE NO TALENT (he's projecting all the way) ...<br /><br />there's your lack of civility, your vulgar zhlub baseness.<br /><br />These are not normal times. Abnormal responses are called for. With the Supreme Court in the Rich Caucasian Mens' Club pockets, and a #MeToo horror like Clarence "Long Dong Silver" Thomas on the bench ...<br /><br />You get the idea.

It is a statement of observation that Trump is a malignant anal conflagration. Such a man--and I use the term recklessly loosely--has no business running ANYTHING, not a family, company, etc. ... much less a country.<br /><br />Write what you think and feel, as invalid as it is.

No, you can't refuse service to people because they are black, or Muslim, or gay.

Witness D.J. Asshole-in-Chief, who said before the election, "I don't look to closely at myself because I'm afraid I might not like what I see." So the world lives with and tolerates his blindness, ignorance, and assholedom.<br /><br />Witness Mitch Soulless McConnell, who's "proud" of stymieing the nomination of Merrick Garland, a decent, fair man, in order to install the asshole Gorsuch (he even has an asshole name) so that rich Caucasian mens' policies and privileges can be rubber-stamped.<br /><br />The rich and seeming-rich Caucasian mens' club is on its way out. But it's going down screaming entitlement.<br /><br />These motherfuckers can't own up to ANYTHING. Everything is someone else's fault.Don Quixotenoreply@blogger.com
