3 Iran suing in world court to get old assets unfrozen. Who wants to bet the regime will come out in favor.

4 I am having a bad day here. I was walking to the Louvre and my BP meds, which have been giving me fits, made me black out and do a face plant on the Quai De Tuileries. So I got to go by ambulance to the Hospital Cochin to be checked out. Back in my hotel draped in icepacks.

I must say the Parisians could not have been kinder. Within seconds someone had wrapped me in a space blanket, several people had given me tissues, and they called the fire department. Two off duty firemen who had been running in the Tuileries came to stay with me until the ambulance came. Two ladies stayed with me as well.

5 And the coffee makers we are going to shut you down. Isn't that right Ted?

6 Buddy talked me into purchasing a coffee press years ago.

Last week I was talking to him and mentioned I was making coffee with my French press. He called me a homo, because only a homo would use a French press.

He further explained he uses a coffee press. Which is manly, and not French.

I wasted forty minutes on google to find out he's totally trolling me, and a coffee press is a French press, and vice versa.

The French docs suggest anything?

15 Yes, it dropped it too low. I take Bystolic and Lisinopril, but, I skipped the Lisinopril because I was already a bit woozy. Dr. has been trying stuff since January to get my resting BP number to be better.

I have said before that, had Jane Fonda been hung / shot for treason, we might have been spared a great deal of trouble down the line. Letting her live was proof to the left that, for all the talk about "enemies foreign and domestic," when push came to shove, those tasked with the security of the United States would falter. "Guilty as sin, free as a bird," indeed.

And Sherry, I'm so sorry for your accident. I'm so glad it wasn't worse.

74 Some more words from his tremendous book on the Christian life-"Life Secrets" by Dr. Henry Foster-

If we would throw ourselves wholly upon God, His Love and Grace, and walk with Him, there would come a stream of love, peace, joy and rest in our hearts, and a wonderful uplifting of the soul when divine power is at work. His eyes are abroad in all the earth seeking the person for whom He may show himself strong, and whenever he sees a loving, loyal soul, a trusting soul, a faithful soul, that is the one for whom He shows himself strong. Now if we want the strength of God, we must walk very humbly, very lightly, yet with an earnest application to the things we have to do, knowing in faith that God will accomplish all the rest. What we do may be very little, but what God does will be a great deal. His gifts to us will be wonderful indeed!

In propaganda news:

TNTs modern-day Civil War pilot "Civil" threads ominously close to current events. It takes place in the wake of a hotly contested Presidential election, as America finds itself plunging uncontrollably into a modern day Civil War. The series weaves together the personal stories of citizens from all walks of life, whose actions, amplified in an age of instant media, add fuel to the conflict and affect the fate of the entire country.

90 OT, but the FL AG was sandbagged by Rick Anderson of CNN could have been handled if she had insisted on taping the entire session even before the 'official" interview began. I wish every republican office holder could get media training from that brunette who is a Trump spokesperson...that chick is on fire, takes no prisoners and takes no shit.

Instead of broadcasting her message that there are a lot of scams playing off this mass murder and helping not further victimize families and friends...Rick chose to create more resentment and score political points.

I wish she could announce that she would direct anyone so scammed to complain to Rick Anderson because he prevented that information from coming out.

I am sure the MFM think pumping up the LP helps Cankles. But if Trump continues to poll below Martin Shkreli, the Libertarian (more like Liberal Republican) ticket may get more than a second look from people.

Trump's speaking in Dallas today. It's listed as a "rally" in a ballroom, so I guess it's not the Crooked Hillary Email speech he had planned to give on Monday. It looks like all rallies through Saturday.

Posted by: iforgot (NeverTrumpers, avert eyes) at June 16, 2016 07:48 AM (pC96u)

125 So I got on youtube last night and I decided to watch some of Obama's speech.

I don't think I've ever seen him so pissed off. He was that pissed off for being called out for not saying the words Islamic Terrorism. He was pissed because in his mind, simply calling Islam terrorists, Islamic terrorists would be more than enough to incite the Islamic terrorists to carry out Islamic terrorism. And for you people who think I am in any way injecting humor into this assessment, you should watch some of the speech. Though I paraphrased, that is literally what he said.

He has no problem calling out Republicans or any other American group or individual for doing what they do when they do what they do and he disagrees with it. He has never suggested that by calling out Republicans that by simply calling them out would cause them to do more Republican shit.

Republicans do Republican shit because they are Republicans and that's what they do. Islamic terrorists do Islamic terrorism because that is what they do.

Obama says idiotic shit, which startlingly many 'people' seem to agree with, because he's an idiot. It's what he does.

He's also a disgrace, but in this country, that seems to be a trait of greatness.

144 How would this make you feel:

Parliament doesn't actually have to bring Britain out of the EU if the public votes for it.

https://tinyurl.com/h6d8yuo

That is quoted directly from Business Insider, a widely respected publication.

People, because the EU has actually (not shit) ignored referendums from other countries - France and Holland are two - have suggested that this might actually happen in the event of an exit vote in Britain.

Gonna go out on a limb here, but I think a doing that might piss one or two people off.

It would definitely yank the pants off of what's actually been going on, not only in Britain, but across the western (and by that, and I know how racist this suggestion is - the white western world) world.

I say white western world because all of this mass immigration BS being permitted by western leaders is only happening in countries that have been predominantly and historically white.

I don't think they want to move so that they can immediately vote Democratic, I think they move because they want lower taxes and a better quality of life but that they vote the ways they had been accustomed to voting. I mean; I don't think they say to themselves, "I'll go South or West so that I can foul things up there."

i would like to move to the Midwest or South but you wouldn't have to worry about us. FenelonSpouse and I am are registered Democrats (DINOs) but haven't voted for any Democrats since before Obama was elected the first time.
