Actually, I sense more anger and venom in your reply than Traum.

Christ, it's a beautiful weekend out there guys. The sun is shining and the shorts are short. Hope ya'll have better things to do than argue about why a 70 year old man shouldn't have stepped in front of a 90 year old lady all day.

You're assuming the delay was due to him personally. Considering the amount of security and entourage around both people involved a small delay doesn't seem very significant.

Sheesh I thought if anyone could appreciate the parallelisms of marketing a tiny minority’s interests as trumping those of the majority it was you, where’s your sense of humour today?

I’ll asterisk my original post for you * A miniscule percentage of white people were once slaves to other white people for a very brief period of time.

Does not invalidate anything I said. Everyone happy now?

I save lots of money by logging into RS on a daily basis. No longer do I buy circus tickets. I get everything a circus has to offer and more right here............for free.



LOL at the comments................... "I want this played at my funeral full blast and nobody gets to leave until the song is over."

Now reply with how long you played the video for. If you can listen to the whole thing without going nuts, I commend you.

Anyone know the original title of this tune and most importantly, the composer? Fuck it......... I mean, Julius Fucik. The rest of the music is actually decent. Too famous and associated with clowns and such.......... anyway, have a listen to this version.

Except for the North Africans who enslaved them. For hundreds of years.

A miniscule percentage is about how many of the transatlantic slaves taken from Africa ended up in the now US.

Trump administration files World Trade Organization complaint against Canada’s retaliatory tariffs

U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration has filed a World Trade Organization challenge against the retaliatory tariffs Canada has imposed in response to Trump’s own tariffs on steel and aluminum.

Canada and other countries have previously filed WTO challenges against the U.S. tariffs. Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland has called those tariffs illegal.

The argument from the Trump administration, announced Monday, is that Trump’s tariffs are legal but the retaliation is not.

“The actions taken by the president are wholly legitimate and fully justified as a matter of U.S. law and international trade rules. Instead of working with us to address a common problem, some of our trading partners have elected to respond with retaliatory tariffs designed to punish American workers, farmers and companies. These tariffs appear to breach each WTO Member’s commitments under the WTO Agreement,” U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer said in a statement.

I can't help but wonder if this move is an attempt to validate his own retaliatory measures.
If the WTO sees nothing wrong with retaliatory measures by China, Mexico, Canada, the EU, then they should see nothing wrong with his.

I can't believe 3 pages were spent arguing about the N-word, nothing is more amusing than to watch white guys argue why they can't drop the n-bomb when it's used in rap songs, utterly hilarious, but an all too common and boring argument.

Moving on, I think with this Russia meeting we're slowly starting to see the threads start to fray in the Trump administration. It's happening slowly, but I think we'll look back at this time as the turning point, at least I hope.

I do think the left is making a big mistake by demagoguing Russia and Putin too much though. While for sure Russia and Putin are acting as hostile entities, I think it's foolish to try to lay blame of the election results on them. By doing so the left is excusing the rot and decay that is occurring in American politics and its electorate right now.

The problem isn't Russia, the problem is America. It's media, the propaganda, the galvanizing, the racism, the hatred, the rampant white supremacy, there's a real problem with the American electorate right now that needs to be addressed. One can see the possibility of a civil war, Trump will come and go, but his voters will not. I don't understand how people can't figure that part out. So Trump maybe gets impeached, then what? What happens next? You think suddenly half of the country will become progressives?

I'm starting to realize this isn't about Trump anymore, there is literally no negative news or information that will come out to dissuade his supporters, literally nothing. A tape can come out with hookers pissing on his face while he drinks it gleefully, and they will claim it's a fake video, doctored, fake news. None of it matters, this is why he's Teflon.

The reason is because this isn't about Trump, it's about a movement, his supporters are standing for the movement behind him, and not so much the man himself. That's a real problem, and Democrats need to figure out a clear standpoint, a clear agenda for people to get behind and support.

Thus far they haven't, if that doesn't change, they're fucked in 2020. These god damn corporate Dems NEED to go in this coming primary. Here's hoping.

President Donald Trump says he misspoke on Russia, accepts intelligence | abc7ny.com

"I accept our intelligence community's conclusion that Russia's meddling in the 2016 election took place," Trump said Tuesday
