I think most people would be astonished at both the quantity and variations of '“F”' both Jerseyites and military types employ. Cussing and swearing are fine arts for our kind, but can easily be misinterpreted as hatespeech, especially by those who're missing balls.

I dunno. I can drop multiple variations in less than a coupla minutes just talking to myself and never once feel angry with myself much less "rage".

Whatever the case may be, I find their fainting spells to be amusing and confusing at the same time.

OK. Got a question.

Why is it a ‘thing’ for conservatives if Warren’s DNA test cannot prove that she - or anyone else - is Cherokee, specifically? The test reveals a Native American heritage nonetheless.

Trump questioned that and was proven wrong. And now it’s interesting watching his minions fall all over themselves to defend him welching on a bet.

The small, edited photo at the bottom is quite unnecessary, offensive and obviously meant to be derogatory.

The chart itself is misleading and obviously meant to be dismissive. Total BS.
This, or any other post that I have made or will make in the future, is strictly my own opinion and consequently of little or no value.

Welp. That's what I was thinking. It relies on stereotyping. I was waiting to hear from someone who knows what they're talking about. Thanks.

If I had to guess is they didn't like her using an obviously distant relative to achieve minority status. They found it absurd, pandering, and perceptually it appeared she was taking advantage of a minority population to earn privilege and Liberal street cred.

Whatever the case may be I assumed she was like my ex-FIL who is 1/16th Cherokee, met whatever criteria one of the nations has for membership, but is as blue-eyed European as the come.

As an aside, I don't think she comes close, like at all, to winning the Democrtic nomination so this is all silliness.

Saddens me greatly to say I agree. She took herself out of the running by pulling this stunt, and now, of all times. Certain key lefty players are not happy with her on Twitter. She done.

Go “F” yourself. Conspiracies happen all the time. Prosecutors like your boy Mueller claim that they exist every day. I've represented clients where they were accused of being involved in a conspiracy, and guess what, there was a conspiracy. Also, my neighbor is doing a 9 year stretch in federal prison for a supposed conspiracy that he supposedly led. But, conspiracies don't exist, right? (at least that is what he claimed). Those who believe in them are cooks, if the conspiracy involves your favorite politicos of course. The mainstream media is rabid over a supposed Russia conspiracy that has yet to materialize but you try to claim that I am off by saying that Warren might have had other tests that weren't released????? I am a lawyer by trade and so is she. We plan by training. So, it isn't a stretch to think that maybe she did some other tests in order to make sure the results were accurate. She took her sweet time in releasing this data, so she could have done other tests as well. However, we never will know of course. Hence, it must be a crazy conspiracy. By the way, “F” off.

This is a man who was so tight he bought a portrait of himself to hang in his country club with money from his own charity, so welching on a bet would seem to be a (ahem) sure bet. A lot of things that Donald Trump owns are very expensive, but his word is very cheap.

He would certainly not pay a million dollars he promised to defend his word. His word is not worth that much to him.

That's because the Bible is true. My work here is done.
