I don’t get why things are so tense right now, we agree on so much.
For instance, some prof in Missouri had this to say
Missouri School of Journalism professor emeritus George Kennedy suggests the National Rifle Association (NRA) is more dangerous than Islamic State.
Writing in the Missourian, Kennedy observed:
“The Islamic State of Iraq and Syria is a terrorist organization founded in 1999, headquartered in Syria and feared around the world. The NRA was founded in 1891, headquartered in Fairfax, Virginia, and is feared by politicians across America.
I’m not sure why I should care, except that it’s a widespread belief among our fine intellectual betters, but my point is that I absolutely agree.
ISIS is only going to kill some unlucky people, the NRA can get keep Democrats from being elected?!?!?!
That’s way scarier to some people.
Speaking of murderous jihadis, I agree with this batch too.
Inside the West Bank’s Ofer Prison, hundreds of Palestinians led by murderer Marwan Barghouti are currently on a hunger strike.
Hundreds of them! Do you realize what that means? The Palestinians are giving us military aid! That’s saving us like 3 or 4 MOABS!
I gotta tell you, I think the 21st century Democratic party is setting a standard for hilarity that will be unsurpassed for centuries to come.
CNNPolitics reports, accurately, Waters is “having a moment” with the biggest online buzz since Bernie Sanders. Elle dubbed her “The Millennials’ Political Rock Star.”
If a pair of 70+ year old, career pols are The Voices Of Your New Generation! you have a serious problem. Check that, serious problems.
That’s a whole lot worse than the Who singing My Generation while dragging oxygen tanks across the stage.
Obama is giving a speech week!…no…PRESIDENT OBAMA IS GIVING A SPEECH NEXT WEEK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(inhale)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Barack Obama will deliver his first post-presidency public speech Monday in Chicago — but don’t expect any harsh words for President Trump.
The event at the University of Chicago will include young leaders and students “for a conversation on community organizing and civic engagement,” according to a statement from an Obama aide.
He might not say, “Trump” exactly, I will entertain side-bets on him saying something like ‘love trumps hate’ though, but I do expect a shitload of strawmen with Trump’s name on them.
“Some people think that immigrants are bad. Well, I’m here to say that everybody here is an immigrant! Do those people think we’re all bad?” (spoiler alert, I do) and maybe talking about how the world got a whole lot more dangerous than it was just 6 months ago. I can picture the smug look on his face as he’s talking about how great his POTUSy was.
Unless you’ve been having a problem getting your spouse to agree to a new TV, I wouldn’t watch it.
Via DougM at my favorite ‘Stan, we find anarchists getting organized. (definitional problems abound among our intelligentsia) but that’s not what’s funny. his joke.
This is what I laughed at.
He quoted a bunch of fascist anarchists saying they needed “combat training” (exact quote) then he had this to say.
Better question here:
Who are Americans more likely to arm themselves against and have no qualms about putting in the hospital/morgue?
A stick justifies one level of response.
A deadly weapon justifies an entirely different level of response.Don’t mistake my meaning, here — there are some Americans who are just itchin‘ to form a skirmish line with you traitors. They’ve spent thousands of dollars on first-class weaponry; they have thousands of rounds of ammo; they’ve thought about your masked, hooded faces every time they go to the range (which they do a lot); and some have years of professional, real-world, no-sh*t killing experience (man, deer, pig, and bird).
And, no, you won’t be able to catch up — Americans have been at it for centuries.Your mouths are writin’ checks your movement can’t cash.
Let’s see an artist’s representation.
My buddy went to school with a porn director’s son and he worked as a sound editor on some porn (He was in some too, but as the “Drug dealer on the streetcorner” not the pizza boy), he loved editing in farts in inappropriate places. He’d love this.
Not really related but
MAN BITES DOG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
accused of biting the family dog. Police said the suspect told them he was trying to “teach the dog a lesson.”
Well, Florida-man bites dog, but still.

It’s true, you do start to resemble your dog!
I’ve been checking out President Hillary Clinton’s blog occasionally and I’m no closer to deciding if it’s real or satire. If it’s satire, it’s very well done and pretty darn consistent. If it’s real, it’s very poorly done and consistently willfully-ignorant and stupid.
Like this one
The New York Times is reporting that President Hillary Rodham Clinton has instituted a new policy of threatening America’s enemies with non-imaginary weapons only, a controversial negotiating principle that’s already caused two four-star generals to resign.
Non-imaginary.
This one seems to point to satire, but I just can’t be sure.
On Wednesday, Bill O’Reilly announced he is leaving Fox News in order to run for president.
“President Hillary Rodham Clinton’s approval ratings may be high right now, but she’s can’t expect to win a second term with a guy like me in the mix. I am hoping that the American people will forgive me – a man who has exploited, harassed and sexually assaulted multitudes women throughout my entire career – and let me ruin Hillary’s professional dreams, as I have shattered so many women’s,” O’Reilly said.
But the tone-deafness of lefties ignoring Bill’s sordid past and Hillary’s actions in shutting up his victims is pretty typical of lefties.
Within hours of O’Reilly’s announcement, he had already snagged key endorsements from high profile rapists and sexual predators, including Bill Cosby, Dov Charney, Julian Assange, Clarence Thomas, Roger Ailes, failed candidate Donald Trump and Brock Turner.
No mention of Bill. Or Ted Kennedy, but that’s because Ted Kennedy is still dead.
This one FrnakJ could have written last week.
In a lovers’ quarrel that’s rocking D.C.’s foreign policy establishment, on Tuesday, failed candidate Donald Trump accused Russian President Valdimir Putin of “cheating” on him with Syria’s Bashar al-Assad.
That’s funny.
Do you think that FrnakJ just started a whole blog for In My World?
