    I wonder how many of Boob’s patients died because he misdiagnosed them.

    No wonder he is always drunk – those feelings of guilt will get you and drive you to do that.

    Unlike having to come here to post every day and every hour. Not much of a life when you hit the sauce that much.

    Plane crash in Columbia. Probably Trump sabotaged the plan to keep them Latinos from crossing the border.

    Some soccer club from Brazil. No loss they are all whining baby ass birch bigots.

    Donald sure gets around. Less briefings will give you plenty of time to grope and rape zee bitches.

    http://www.nydailynews.com/ent.....-1.2890482

    That makes me think of something – do white men complain about when rappers use the word bitches as much as they do the N word? Hmmmm, maybe they like them bitches!

    I guess one of the positive aspects about not having a job is that one can surf the interweb and post idiotic comments at 2:45 AM on Monday night/Tuesday morning.

    @10 I don’t have a job, either. I’m a capitalist stock investor. Capitalists don’t work, we own.

    Drumpf unveils his ugly infrastructure plan.

    “Investors have cheered President-elect Donald Trump’s proposal to spend $1 trillion on infrastructure over the next 10 years. But economists are questioning the plan’s upside for the economy given its unusual and convoluted structure, which they say portends less actual infrastructure improvement and more private-sector profits.

    “Trump is calling for the government to avoid direct spending and borrowing by instead subsidizing private developers with massive tax credits for building roads, bridges and other projects. The developers would own the infrastructure and collect resulting cash flows from tolls or fees.”

    http://www.cbsnews.com/news/do.....l-pothole/

    Roger Rabbit Commentary: So, in a nutshell, contractors get subsidies and tax breaks, public roads and bridges become private property, and you get hit with tolls and fees to use them.

    Capitalism has done far more to raise people out of poverty. Communism and socialism allow everyone except the government elite to suffer.

    For those who criticize capitalism, give Cuba, Venezuela or North Korea a try. We are much better off here.

  14. 14

    @13 Who’s criticizing capitalism? Not me! I’m a capitalist, and I love capitalism! I live off the fruits of other people’s labor, enjoy favorable tax rates the working class doesn’t get, don’t have to work, and can spend all day posting on HA! What’s not to like? Being a capitalist sure beats working for a living. No one should work, everyone should be a capitalist!

    What Trump unleashed:

    “A supporter of Vice President-elect Mike Pence faces a court hearing next month after police said he called two women in a New York City diner racist names and pepper-sprayed a bystander who defended them.

    “Frank Camino, 56, is scheduled to appear in court on Dec. 19 on charges of assault with intent to cause physical injury, attempted assault, recklessly causing injury and harassment in the second degree, local news website Gothamist reported.

    “Police arrested him early Nov. 20 at a diner after he reportedly called two Chinese-American women ‘c**ts’ and ‘whores’ and said they should ‘go back to Tokyo,’ the website reported. Then he pepper-sprayed a man who stepped up to defend the women and said he doesn’t ‘tolerate racism,’ according to a witness.”

    http://www.huffingtonpost.com/.....39a78a0a1c

    Roger Rabbit Commentary: There have been literally hundreds of Trump-inspired incidents of racial harassment and violence since the election. Some of Trump’s supporters apparently believe they now have a license to attack strangers and a “get out of jail free” card if they do. What are the odds that the new regime will drop federal enforcement of hate crimes? Trump isn’t even in office yet, and America already resembles Germany in the early 1930s.

  16. 16

    Flag burning. Wow brave unconstitutional stance there.

    “I declare bacon to be delicious if bad for you” @realdonaldtrump

    “Cupcakes. Who doesn’t like a cake you can selfishly devour alone” @realdonaldtrump

    “There should be consequences for not liking cheese on a burger, like jail or something.” @realdonaldtrump

    “President-elect Donald Trump on Tuesday suggested that people who burn the American flag should lose their citizenship.”

    http://www.huffingtonpost.com/.....0d61164f72

    Roger Rabbit Commentary: Will this apply to desecrating the Confederate battle flag, too? Many of Trump’s close associates love that flag even more than our flag.

  19. 19

    @18 That’s not the purpose. At least, it wasn’t for Hitler. By stripping Jews of citizenship and turning them into stateless persons, he ensured that (a) they had no place to go except into his gas chambers, and (b) no government would accept the responsibility of protecting them. Taking away people’s citizenship is what you do when you want to kill them, because in modern civilization, it is the state that protects individuals. It was the policy that made the Holocaust possible. Trump’s comprehension of history may not be as shallow as we think.

    Douche bag at 10. You might make sense if any of that was true. If you were smart or a regular here you would know that I’m on the east coast and all the time I have in the day is just before waking up before going to my 140,00 dollar salary job that I’ve worked for for the last 28 years with the same company right out of college and never collected a dime of unemployment insurance or ever lived on any welfare benefits. And I’m busy managing 11 high rise construction projects in NYC. Right now I am waiting to get an MRI for a pinched nerve.

    So go fuck your self and keep ducking drumps little dick.

    Thanks for your response. If you learn from Boob you would know better not to respond.

    And if I mis spelled anything it’s because I don’t have glasses on and fat fingers on the I phone. And my hands are bigger than Drunos!

  23. 23

    @10. Oh I just got a news flash that Alaska is warming twice as much now.

    I hope you suffer with global warming. Sick face that doesn’t have a real job himself.

  25. 25

    @22 lolz

    Worked for the same company for 28 years and only making 140k? And you want us to believe you are managing 11 high rises? Hahaha. Those of us in the same industry know better, and know you full if shit. A Sr. PM running(?) 11(ya right) high rises would be making twice what you are…at a minimum.

    Ya…brag that up….lol.

  26. 26

    @23

    I am looking forward to some global warming….that prospect does not bother me one bit. Run along now, chicken little.

  27. 27

    Looks like Trump might be gearing up to assist GOP vote suppression efforts, too.

    http://www.cnbc.com/2016/11/29.....house.html

    Roger Rabbit Commentary: It’s no secret that Trump’s views on voting issues are straight out of the early 19th century. He thinks only wealthy property owners should be allowed to vote.

  28. 28

    @24

    You having problems with people grabbing your pussy? Sounds like you and YLB have that issue in common.

    HERO STATUS ACHIEVED!

  29. 29

    @26 It doesn’t bother me, either, but for different reasons. The sooner you humans are extinct, the quicker we rabbits can fill your niche. We’re gonna run this place after your species is gone.

  30. 30

    Global warming? You ain’t seen nuthin’ yet! Just wait until the Alaska tundra melts and releases all that frozen methane into the atmosphere. Methane is a greenhouse gas 30 times as potent as carbon dioxide! And there’s huge quantities of it locked in the permafrost. When that melts, goodbye homo sapiens!

  31. 31

    Happy birthday to Emma Moreno of Italy, who turned 117 today, and is thought to be the last living person born in the 19th century. Maybe she’ll become a Trump adviser. He wants to restore what life was like back then.

  32. 32

    &25 and if you weee a regular here you would know that I am a scheduler for construction projects not the PM. I work for 11-15 Pm’s planning and scheduling there projects.

    Once again you know nothing and are always wrong. Nothing new for a conservative with a. It plug up your ass.

    And I’m up for promotion. Hopefully I’ll be making 150-169 next few months but who really gives a fuck about money.

  33. 33

    Looks like Trump is dead serious about eliminating Obamacare and privatizing Medicare and Medicaid in a way that would result in huge cuts in federal spending on health care, leave millions without health insurance, and put people at risk of medical bankruptcy once again.

    http://www.huffingtonpost.com/.....ig4vl323xr

  34. 34

    &25 a senior PM running 11 high rises would be called a Senior PX or Project executive and probably wouldn’t have 11 except for the one guy I work for but who has a couple of PX’s under him who then manage other single site PX’s or PM’s.

  35. 35

    Climate change is only a problem for all the gimmedats and boat people who live in shitty poor loser neighborhoods and demand that the rest of us work extra hard to fix their mistakes.
    Remember the lower 9th ward?
    I think America should be damn proud we gave those pathetic losers relocation assistance. Nobody is “owed” a house.
    A new powerful Leader has been elected. Lots of changes in store for everyone, everywhere, including the weather.

  38. 38

    @26 I understand your feelings…Conservative can never accept to be wrong on something. Complete denial…Ignorance is bliss. Pathetic fucks you are.

  39. 39

    @35 new powerful leader has been elected….yeah, Hitler.

    So now global warming isn’t a hoax…its just something the stupid people (not you) who contributed to it that should swim in their own shit. Got it.

    Dumb Fuck.

  40. 40

    @39,
    A Real American runs your show now. Learn to move with the Big Dog or get culled from the flock. That’s your reality. Those are your facts. Elitist name calling won’t change any of it. You can’t change it. You are powerless. He is powerful. You lost. He won.
    Real America rejoices!

  41. 41

    @32

    You must be under the false impression that I give a fuck about you enough to know if you are a “regular” or not.

    Christ, you cant even figure out the difference between “there” and “their”…and you want me to be impressed? Lol.

    Scheduler = someone(in your case probably a framer) who got hurt on the job and then retrained to keep the company from paying a lifetime of disability $$ to your dumb ass.

    Sorry bucko, but you a little dog trying to bark at a big dog….

    Signed,
    Someone who ACTUALLY runs multiple high rise projects.

    Good luck with that promotion….lol.

  42. 42

    First, Little Fingers says he managing 11 high rise projects( to give the impression that, you know, is actually managing or running them)….then he called out and changes the story to being “the scheduler”

    Big difference between managing/running a project and being……the scheduler.

    Big talk ..lol

  43. 43

    @31 I doubt that. Even he’s smart enough to want to keep things like flush toilets, deodorant and anesthesia for surgeries, not to mention travel by jet. At least for himself and his fellow rich folks.

    To the dipshit who thinks global warming is all about flooding.

    3 dead so far from wild fires burning in Tennessee where all the good white racists live.

    It’s more than just about rising tides as Roger inferred.

    Have fun dipshits!

  48. 48

    @33 Actually, it sounds like what Dr. Price is proposing is a return to something like what we had in place in the 1970’s, which worked pretty well at the time. Getting health insurance from your employer made perfectly good sense when almost everyone was employed, and rising average incomes (until 1973) helped pick up the slack of whatever peoples’ policies didn’t cover. With so many people un- or underemployed (and even young professionals struggling under greater housing costs and college debt) the problem has grown and shifted.

  49. 49

    I’ve come to realize that there’s something I might as well cross off my “bucket list”. I’ve always yearned to go see the Great Smokey Mountains but now it seems they’re…well, going up in smoke.

    This happenstance, of course, has to be God’s punishment for all the degenerate city-slicker liberal elitist sinning Sodomites who all live around there….oh, wait…

  50. 50

    @48

    Would be interesting to see a comparison between health care costs now vs 1973..in relative dollars of course…as well as an examination of what laws have changed or been introduced that may have driven costs up so sharply.

    I dont have the answers, just asking questions.

  51. 51

    @40 “A Real American runs your show now.”

    Meaning, of course, a rich white guy who doesn’t know shit about what he just got put in charge of. America has a long tradition of this sort of thing, which we apparently haven’t outgrown yet, even in the 21st century. Oh well, the Enlightenment didn’t happen overnight, either. Burning witches persisted into the 18th century.

  54. 54

    @50 Well, part of the answer to your question is that we’re living longer now, which means more of us are older and sicker. Also, we can now treat people who were given up for as-good-as-dead in 1973. And medical technology has improved (MRI machines replacing xray machines, etc.) and gotten more expensive in the process. Plus doctors are better paid now, in both relative and real terms. More elective procedures in tandem with greater affluence. And, not least, the rise of a health insurance industry that skims 30% off the top.

  55. 55

    @53 Your bad luck that you didn’t read that memo. That’s the price of ignorance, I suppose. I assume you plan to attend your funeral.

  56. 56

    @52

    Im not the one who brought it up. Little Fingers got all cocky and wanted to have a dick measuring contest…and he lost…..or, he came up short….lol

    Go back to playing with your penny stocks.

  62. 62

    @56 You don’t know what you’re talking about. I don’t do penny stocks. You’re ignorant about a lot of other things, too.

  64. 64

    Don’t forget everything you post, Roger. It’s all wingnut humor, including yours.

  65. 65

    The CIA may have taken me prisoner and is torturing me. Seems I pissed off Hillary and other Democrats rather badly.

  66. 66

    @54 We’ve gone from the invention of the DC defibrillator and “Medic One” to AED’s all over the place and most of us know enough about CPR that we could do it if we had to. So, yeah…quite a lot of people who once would have been done in by their first heart attack now live one to eventually succumb to something else, whose treatment may be more expensive. Someone figured out how to synthesize insulin from gene-spliced bacteria in vats of synthetic shit, just in time to battle a giant epidemic of type 2 diabetes. For a long time it’s looked like Alzheimer’s was going to be the default way out for all too many of us, but now it’s declining and nobody knows why.

    As to the income level of providers….I’m not so sure. Docs used to mostly run their own practices. Now that’s become more corporatized and many can concentrate on treating their patients instead of sweating over their own books. On the other hand, I’m not sure they’re quite as high on the economic scale as they used to be. Remember when the Beechcraft Bonanza was called the “fork-tailed doctor killer”? I don’t know many docs who own their own aircraft these days.

  68. 68

    Here’s the point I tried to make. You do not corner good-old-boys and their wives with facts or rebuttals. What works is dares! Challenges, wagers that only a wuss would refuse. In this case, if he balked, it would have looked terrible. Whiney and cowardly. (“What, you can’t find any smart and respectable republicans to appoint?”)

    If he accepted, he’d risk ‘betrayal’ by his appointees. A lose-lose situation for him. The very thing that DT did to her. It’s called judo, Hillary. And, clearly, we need politicians who know some. As Putin does.

    The dems’ best judo move for 2018? Nominate 250 retired colonels to run in every single “safe” Republican district.

    Worser @68,

    You really think working class union members will listen to Nancy Pelosi and Chucky Schumer as minority leaders and Keith Ellison as DNC head when they put up those so called “military people” in 2018?

    Really? Tim Ryan from Ohio makes a great point. Your team sucks!

  72. 72

    Trump says something outrageous about flag burning, what real news is he distracting the media from today?

  73. 73

    Way to go Drumpf on nominating this joke Price…

    Drumpf said in the debates about the ACA ban of denying coverage due to pre-existing conditions:

    “I agree with that 100%, except pre-existing conditions, I would absolutely get rid of ObamaCare. I want to keep pre- existing conditions. It’s a modern age, and I think we have to have it.”

    This joke of a nutcase Price:

    “For example, most Republicans support the health law’s requirement that insurance companies accept all applicants — but the replacement plan put forward by the most prominent Republican ignores that idea.

    “It’s a terrible idea,” Rep. Tom Price (R-Ga.), the sponsor of the plan, told POLITICO. ”

    He may have flip-flopped since then. The guy’s another nutjob Drumpf saw on Faux Snooze Channel..

  76. 76

    Last nail in the coffin for the whining Republican sore loser in N. Carolina?

    “The North Carolina State Board of Elections on Monday night dismissed the bulk of Republican Gov. Pat McCrory’s ballot challenges in the disputed governor’s race. Their ruling, along with a vote difference of more than 9,000 votes for Democratic challenger Roy Cooper, means North Carolina’s race is essentially over and the state’s attorney general will succeed its controversial governor.”

    Meet your new Treasury Secretary:

    “Donald Trump said the system is rigged. He said hedge fund managers are ‘getting away with murder.’ He said that he’d ‘tax Wall Street.’ He called Washington D.C. corrupt and promised to ‘drain the swamp.’ He said his opponent Hillary Clinton was too cozy with the banks, as epitomized by her closed-door paid speeches. He said Clinton’s vice presidential nominee, Tim Kaine, was ‘owned by the banks’ and that he, Trump, would break them up. Trump closed his campaign with an ad bashing Goldman Sachs and George Soros, using classically anti-Semitic phrases.

    “And now, according to The New York Times, ABC and CBS, the president-elect has chosen a second-generation Goldman Sachs partner who worked for George Soros before starting a hedge fund and buying IndyMac, a failing California bank that made billions while foreclosing on homeowners after the financial crisis.

    “Steven Mnuchin’s takeover of IndyMac is a story about everything Americans have come to hate about how the financial crisis was allowed to unfold ― ordinary people panicking, savvy investors pouncing, a government guarantee that saved a bank but didn’t even try to keep people in their homes, a clever rebranding, rampant foreclosures, billions of dollars in profits. And now, the cruel punchline: The man behind it is being nominated for treasury secretary by a self-proclaimed billionaire populist.”

    @82,83 To vote for Drumpf is to love “the loser one”…

    Price: just let the insurance companies and the health care industry do whatever the hell they like. Don’t get sick and you’ll be fine. At least until the Republican polluters and poisoners are done with you. Then you’ll be fleeced of every thin dime before you pass.

    Does any troll believe Drumpf when it farted that 3 million votes for Hillary Clinton were illegal?

    Shit that trash didn’t even pass muster in the N. Carolina gov contest.

    Drumpf is really fucked up in the pinhead that it got fewer votes than Hillary.. Just like the time it farted:

    “the loser one”…

    @50 I don’t have the exact figures at my fingertips, but health care costs as a percentage of GDP have approximately doubled since the 1970s and now constitute over 20% of the U.S. economy.

  91. 91

    Trump says a lot of things that are pure bullshit and have no chance of happening. For example, stripping flag burners of citizenship. These tweets are designed to create shitstorms that distract the media and public, and when they happen, you should ask yourself which cookie jar his fingers are reaching into, because it’s all about the grift. Follow the money. Always follow the money. For example, the millions of taxpayer dollars being paid to Trump to house the Secret Service in Trump Tower. But he has much, much bigger grifts than that in mind. For example, privatizing Medicare. He’s been holding secret meetings with billionaires. He’s putting billionaires and Wall Street grifters into his cabinet. His billionaire friends are going to run the government so they can get their hands on the government’s money. Follow the money, it’s all about the money.

  92. 92

    Trump’s pick of Elaine Chao as Transportation Secretary means more people are going to die. Will you be one of them?

    “Chao’s record suggests she’d be skeptical of new safety regulations and may attempt to roll back existing regulations. Under Chao, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration didn’t issue a single significant new safety regulation for four years, and mine safety inspectors were cut and inspections reduced, said Thomas McGarity, a University of Texas law professor and author of ‘Freedom to Harm,’ a book about the labor department that includes Chao’s tenure.”

    I wish I had some answers for that one and others. Another question I have is why has every doctor I’ve seen over the last 20 years been so fucking incompetent. I wonder these days if it’s because they’re posting snide comments on blogs all day.

    How do we know? Well there was a post where it wrote “You just wait!” Then about a week later it bragged about using tctmgr to screen scrape all of Goldy’s blog here and capture it for vile putrid attacks. So far its rate is .0002 for attacks!
