I think it would be more like the family would say he wasn't contrite; burn the bastard. At least it seems that way in the courtroom.


I still look back on Reagan's words after the Challenger disaster (It's one of the very few things I give him kudos for), and see that as the gold standard for presidential words of sympathy. And while Obama might have gotten us into a couple scrapes during his term, he didn't cause Sandy Hook which might have been his moment. It's a little harder to separate the other Presidents such as Bush who might have been using tragic events (9/11) for his own global policy (Overthrowing Hussein), but I can't believe they were bad people deep inside (the book's still out on the Clintons).

With everyone and their mother sending truckloads of thoughts and prayers, I think that shoulder duty is covered. Plus, I have a feeling that these kids would feel a lot better if Trump actually did something to prevent issues like this in the future than if he uttered platitudes at them.

You're the smartest guy I know, Chula.

They're ****ing politicians. Even if they did feel something resembling sympathy in their chest cavity, it's pandering for votes every time.

Yeah, but even politicians are human, albeit somewhat flawed.

They're. ****ing. Politicians. Don't associate humanity with them.

I didn’t know some English people were upset with the queen when Lady Di died. She loses a family member then the public ****s on her lol

That’s a good one

I’m sure a lot of people would rather the president **** off when this **** happens

That’s why they vet people first

I figure that’s been the M.O. since around Lincoln (should mo be capitalized?)

I think you’re underestimating what a calculating **** you have to be to end up with that much power

Perfect analogy Troll.......

Aren't you the one who cries at Democratic political rallies? You're a ****ing sap, dude. People like you keep people in office.

Go drink some piss you armpit stain.

Bad advice. Drinking piss always just puts me into a worse mood.

Try drinking someone else's?

Do you speak from experience? I haven't been able to successfully get a golden shower yet, the asshole licking is a tough enough sale and that's a much higher priority for me.

Nothing better than when a sexual partner submits to the awesomeness of analingus.

The point about that was that people basically knew she didn't approve of Diana, whom she saw as not quite a commoner but at least not royal, and was probably pissed that her daughter-in-law was getting more press than her and people loved her more. She was silent on the princess's death, for a long time, which was a deliberate snub, and people saw it as such. She was the "people's princess" (who the **** coined that phrase I wonder?) and they saw the Queen as the evil stepmother or whatever. She miscalculated badly and it took some manoeuvring to get back in the people's good books.
Are you being sarcastic with that gif?

^ Wonder no more, Trollheart! Alistair Cambell put it into a speech he was writing for Tony Blair to read out, and of course the press just loved it.....

I should have known. Spindoctor Supreme huh?

rawng

Obama overturned laws preventing guns in checked baggage on trains as well as doing away with the requirement for guns to be in a locked glovebox when entering national parks or wildlife refuges. He did however have a couple of executive orders that amounted to "ffs people let's actually enforce these laws" that Trump has since overturned.

Trump Mulls Pulling Some Federal Agents From California

DO IT YOU PUSSY

Actually maybe we can be proactive and just start executing ICE agents on sight.

Church

Dude if there’s a Calexit you really have to help me get in

Wait, so he turned a recent school shooting into a soapbox to race bait? Reagan's looking pretty good right about now.

Manafort and Gates are in deep ****:

Manafort is 68, and if convicted, would die in prison.

Trump is sweating bullets........

You know in Raising Arizona how when everyone looks at they baby they say "ah he's gonna be a criminal, just look at the twinkle in his eye." That baby was Paul Manafort. To say nothing of the actual indictment, I seriously cannot think of a more criminal looking/acting/smelling human.

So if they have real dirt AND sing what will happen?

They will be prosecuted leniently for all the good theyve done otherwise.

idk but they said on CNN that it would lead to Trump being executed so I'm all for it.

.

Accurately?

Dude, Trump is making Dubya look like Abraham Lincoln in comparison. That's pretty scary :yikes:

Florida shooting: Bullets flew for 4 minutes as armed deputy waited outside

NRA uses a Parks and Recreations gif of Leslie Knope to thank their spokesperson after the CNN Town Hall.

"Within an hour, Parks and Recreation creator Mike Schur responded to the NRA, writing, "Hi, please take this down. I would prefer you not to use a GIF from a show I worked on to promote your pro-slaughter agenda." He also spoke on behalf of Amy Poehler – who portrayed Knope – writing, "Also, Amy isn't on Twitter, but she texted me a message: 'Can you tweet the NRA for me and tell them I said **** off?'"

"Adam Scott, who played Ben Wyatt, tweeted, "Hey nra please stay the **** away from Leslie Knope." And Nick Offerman, who played lovable libertarian Ron Swanson, told the NRA and Loesch, "Our good-hearted show and especially our Leslie Knope represent the opposite of your pro-slaughter agenda – take it down and also please eat ****." Aubrey Plaza then piggy-backed off Offerman's tweet, sharing a GIF of her own character, April Ludgate, quipping, "Burn."

Hell yes

Dozens of large companies are dropping their $$$ ties to the NRA.

Delta and United join list of companies to cut ties with the NRA - Feb. 23, 2018

I hate to say anything positive but killing the weapons of war lobby might actually hurt the repugs

Why the **** were the NRA getting so many arbitrary discounts? Too bad they're not getting them anymore or I'd buy a Glock.

^ Yeah I had no idea that NRA members got a bunch of discounts. As the NRA uses its money to wield political power, it's good to see so many companies backing away from abetting its financial importance. Go hashtag #BoycottNRA !

It's the same as joining AAA or AARP (to use two examples), you pay an annual membership fee and you get perks like discounted hotels, car rentals, insurance, restaurants, vacation packages, theater & movie tickets, etc.

Sad to lump the Gun Lobby in with AAA and AARP but I understand why.

Old white people love guns and hate brown, yellow, and black people.

I think you understood my point but just to clarify, I was just pointing out that large organizations/clubs with annual membership fees, typically offer such perks as some of the benefits of being a card-carrying member. AAA and the AARP were just the first two which came to my mind.

Enough.

DWV started it!!!
