Country artist Toby Keith will not back out of performing at
President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration this month, saying in a
statement that he will not "apologize" for performing for the country
and its military.

And thanks for noticing that it is not a private Trump concert, but part of America's celebration of a peaceful transfer of power!

The million-pussy march -- it's about the power of individuality!

I mostly upset about lefties coopting hats with ears, which I love. Why do they have to fvck up everything?

76 OT:
Who dressed Karl Rove this morning? Checkered shirt and different color checkered tie.

77 I wonder if Blumenthal will ever run for president? It seems to me that every nominee since Bill except for Algore has been almost purposely designed to kick vets in the teeth. A draft dodging pot smoker who loathed the military, an effete, French-looking turncoat who betrayed his brothers in arms for fame, a muslim-named Marxist in the middle of an existential war, and a harridan notorious for her mistreatment/disrespect of servicemen and Benghazi. Why not go all in again with a stolen valor asshat?

78 >>Aww,I thought the pussy hats would be...different.

There will likely be 'lots of crazy 3rd wave feminist nonsense mixed in, because these types of marches rarely stay on point - like how "Free Mumia!" posters appear at every progressive protest.

The march organizers were mum about how progressive its purpose would be, and ignored inquiries from a large Pro-Life group who wanted to be one of the sponsors if it wasn't explicitly pro-abortion. They were ignored, and it turns out PP is a big sponsor and helped write the protest's platform. Oh, they also stole the March for Life's hashtag #WhyWeMarch for good measure.
Pretty sure this thing will be a freakshow.

Well, it's only fair because some people who share pigmentation with the current protesters were oppressed by some other people with a different skin pigmentation, neither of whom are actually going to be at this march.

I mean, how else are we going to get beyond past sins unless we keep pushing them onto people who have never committed those sins? It's only logical.

113 Did you mean, maybe, hydrocephalic?

Posted by: Muldoon

Possibly, but macrocephalic is more appropriate. Hydrocephaly is a possible cause of macrocephaly, but not the only one. Oh wait, I'm becoming a droning bore....

114 Lindsay Lohan is a sad, lost, and mentally unstable, and it would not be surprising if she embraced islam after being exploited by he parents and lord know who else in Hollywood as a kid/teen. She certainly needs structure and discipline in her life, but this is not the way to get it.

115 This is a pleasant, serene scene. Although the focus is on the figures, I notice the faces aren't as detailed as the furnishings. More like seen through a soft focus lens, which goes with the gentle emotion of the image. Have to admit, the drapes and furniture really caught my eye.

I don't know if it was deliberate or has meaning, but I notice the mother and little girl have identical expressions. Females with something in common no matter their age? (I presume from the size the baby is a boy.)

This is the third Toulmouche painting CBD has used, which is fine. This one seems to lack the touch of sarcasm or satire that other of his works feature. I would like to have a full size one of his paintings just to study the way he handles cloth and details.

And yes, the item by mom's feet is a tuffet.

I care much less about John Lewis saying something dumb about Trump that won't change anything than about Democrats' sudden love of restrained executive power and the proper place of state sovereignty in the union.

Can we get some solid votes on, say, a constitutional amendment from these people? Something that limits the power of the executive to create new regulations? Or...something that just says, "What the 10th says. And we really really mean it."

Country artist Toby Keith will not back out of performing at
President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration this month, saying in a
statement that he will not "apologize" for performing for the country
and its military.

And thanks for noticing that it is not a private Trump concert, but part of America's celebration of a peaceful transfer of power!

There will likely be 'lots of crazy 3rd wave feminist nonsense mixed in, because these types of marches rarely stay on point - like how "Free Mumia!" posters appear at every progressive protest.

The march organizers were mum about how progressive its purpose would be, and ignored inquiries from a large Pro-Life group who wanted to be one of the sponsors if it wasn't explicitly pro-abortion. They were ignored, and it turns out PP is a big sponsor and helped write the protest's platform. Oh, they also stole the March for Life's hashtag #WhyWeMarch for good measure.
Pretty sure this thing will be a freakshow.

115 This is a pleasant, serene scene. Although the focus is on the figures, I notice the faces aren't as detailed as the furnishings. More like seen through a soft focus lens, which goes with the gentle emotion of the image. Have to admit, the drapes and furniture really caught my eye.

I don't know if it was deliberate or has meaning, but I notice the mother and little girl have identical expressions. Females with something in common no matter their age? (I presume from the size the baby is a boy.)

This is the third Toulmouche painting CBD has used, which is fine. This one seems to lack the touch of sarcasm or satire that other of his works feature. I would like to have a full size one of his paintings just to study the way he handles cloth and details.

-3rd wave feminist, high on love

158 I care much less about John Lewis saying something dumb about Trump that
won't change anything than about Democrats' sudden love of restrained
executive power and the proper place of state sovereignty in the union.



Can we get some solid votes on, say, a constitutional amendment from
these people? Something that limits the power of the executive to
create new regulations? Or...something that just says, "What the 10th
says. And we really really mean it."

Agree absolutely. It's tempting to want Trump to abuse his executive power in the same way that Obama did, just to give them a taste of their own medicine, but it's much more important to get back to a semblance of what the Constitution intended. It will be critical that whatever is proposed be very carefully written, and leave the Dems absolutely no wiggle room to cheat when their turn comes back around. If they won't sign it, hammer them mercilessly for their hypocrisy and make them own it by every Trump executive action.

164 Pro-Trump Bikers Plan to Form a Wall Against Violent Protesters at Inauguration

In the event that we are needed, we will form a wall of meat, he told Fox & Friends. Well be shoulder to shoulder with our brothers and well be toe-to-toe with anyone whos going to break through police barriers, he said.

165 I'm back in the US from Asia due to the recent death of my son and am asking for prayers from the horde.

He was only 36. Cause of death unknown, autopsy performed results pending. Foul play has not been ruled out.

While he lay dead in his house, His house was ransacked and has been broken into one time since.

I'm staying at the house now to prevent any break ins because the police are useless. Have 12 gage and 50 rounds of 00 buckshot.

Internet here is sketchy at best, so I may not be able to reply immediately but will check in to the blog from time to time as connectivity permits.

Thanks in advance for your prayers. I kinda need them right now.

169 158 Agree absolutely. It's tempting to want Trump to abuse his executive power in the same way that Obama did, just to give them a taste of their own medicine, but it's much more important to get back to a semblance of what the Constitution intended. It will be critical that whatever is proposed be very carefully written, and leave the Dems absolutely no wiggle room to cheat when their turn comes back around. If they won't sign it, hammer them mercilessly for their hypocrisy and make them own it by every Trump executive action.

There's been rumors circulating for years that a lot of A and B list actresses have been supplementing their incomes by flying off to the Gulf states to bang oil sheiks for cash, with Dubai being the most popular destination, a kind of Arab Las Vegas.

Given that Lohan hasn't acted in a major film in years and has no visible means of income, I can't help thinking that there's some truth to the rumors, at least in her case.

Yes, he does need to undo the Obama legacy, but I'll suggest a refinement on my previous. When he takes office, he could announce that for the first x months of his tenure, he'll abide by the old Obama rules, which is to say no rules at all, That should give him enough time to undo much of what Obama screwed up and give then that taste of their own medicine. At the same time, he'll announce that at the end of that x months, he'll revert to the Constitutional model, provided the Dems sign on to an amendment making clear that the original intent of the Constitution is operative again, and they can either sign or not sign. If they sign, great, progress is made. If they don't sign, then he continues with the floggings until morale improves.

Unless two or more SCJs are appointed ... this court would be no more "conservative" than the one that decided ObamaCare was a tax.

There exists no level of clarity or conciseness that can ever prevent a judge from perverting the wording and intent of a law. It's judicial nullification. Until we learn how to stopthat, no law can be trusted.

251 There has to be a name for it . A terrible action that in the long run turns out to be beneficial.

For today's African-Americans , that their ancestors were brought here under the terrible condition of slavery turns out the best thing that could have happened for them. I'm glad as hell my grandparents decided to immigrate here and they came from first world Europe.

262 Well, if the purpose of compensatory payments is to make the present as close as possible to what it would have been if a given event hadn't happened, and given that per capita income for say, Nigeria is a bit over $5,360 and for African Americans it is $18,406, then the US government is owed about $13,000 per year for each person as reparations.
