I’m approximately the billionth person to mourn the hiatus of Capitol Hill Seattle. If there are 2 things they did well, it’s great hyper local news and paying their writers.
Here’s hoping for an eventual return.

Eager to share our brilliant political commentary and blunt media criticism, but too genteel to link to horsesass.org? Well, good news, ladies: we also answer to HASeattle.com, because, you know, whatever. You're welcome!
I knew Seattle was becoming overpopulated. I just didn’t think we’d get there this fast.
It’s a tough choice between paying more for your hip joint dinners on CH and paying for your local news source.
Or maybe the problem for CHS is that it’s not really that tough a choice.
15 advertisers have now dumped O’Reilly.

@ 3
It’s not about the advertisers. It’s about the ratings. Those are the numbers you should be watching.
Trump wasn’t a saint, either. His ratings amongst his supporters were still enough to beat #CrookedHillary.
Do you think that O’Reilly supporters will abandon him? If not, he stays. Because his advertisers will return. Because they want to advertise to his supporters.
How would you expect sister-fucking hillbillies to respond, in other words.
This might be somewhat instructive:

I bet he stays and beats this.
I gave up on O’Reilly – he never lets anyone finish a sentence.
Why bring people on your show if you never let them speak?
I don’t really know how to engage with sovereign state leaders on an equal footing. And I refuse to rely on the career professionals who do. So I’m going to get your children killed instead. Also, one helluva distraction!
It’s a tough choice between paying more for your hip joint dinners on CH and paying for your local news source.
Ha! You wrote that as if you actually know what a “news source” would look like if it slapped you across the mouth as harshly as young women always have.
Now, go back to watching Fox, and leave politics to the informed.
It’s been claimed here in these threads that the biggest is the best. FACT! If that’s the case, NYC is only the 23rd best city in the world, beaten for the title of “the best” by the likes of Lima, Cairo, Delhi, Mexico City, Moscow, Lagos, Karachi, Istanbul, Jakarta and Shanghai.
“It’s not about the advertisers. It’s about the ratings. Those are the numbers you should be watching.”
Ratings? Supporters?

@ 8
Ya can’t be the biggest if everyone wants to get the hell out.
Census numbers confirm that more people have fled NYC in recent years than any other US city.
In other words, more people have been considering leaving New York, then meditating on it for a bit ‘til it feels good in their hearts and then doing what feels right, perhaps returning only to realize it’s good that they left. Gothamist points to US Census records, which “show that over 1 million people have abandoned the New York area since 2010, opting to forgo our high tax rates and rampant political corruption in favor of Florida’s sinkholes and whatever’s in Texas.”

@4
No ratings won’t help. The show has to make money and being #1 in your time slot doesn’t make money if they can’t sell the commercial space.
But strong ratings are proof of something. Right Wingers really don’t care about moral values as surely as water is wet.
As much as Loofa Bill’s future is a matter of ratings, it’s also a matter of civil liability. And some of that civil liability extends to sponsors.
@2:
How can there be restaurants on Capitol Hill? Capitol Hill is here in Seattle, which has a high minimum wage, and I distinctly recall opponents of the minimum wage telling us very, very sternly that raising our minimum wage would drive restaurants (and other small businesses) to close.
Why, it’s almost as if opponents of the minimum wage don’t know jack about economics.
@11
Have you seen the ad? It’s really a mess. Blondes can’t fight the power. NoOne takes a movement seriously until a Kardashian (Jenner) is in it. Bob Marley’s grandson is totally as talented. Man these cops are good looking. “I’d like to buy the world a Pepsi.” “Right NOW! Hey you need Pepsi!”
Not for any political reasons but this is going to go down as one of the worst ads ever. What is it saying. The world will be more woke if everyone has a Pepsi?
Ad creatives got so enthralled with their small nation GDP like budget they created this mini movie that is turning off all the young folks not just BLM. The revolution will be monitized.

Yes, Gonzaga is the class of a shitty league and gets said shitty league’s automatic bid. But then they are 24-19 all time in the tournament. Of those 19 straight years they’ve had 4 first round exits and 8 second rounds. So 63% of the time the mighty ZAGS aren’t playing after the first weekend.
One Final Four appearance in school history. Look out, there’s a dynasty blooming!
55% Tournament win rate.
Wow, impressive. You made a title game. Have a ribbon. Everyone’s a winner. Gonzaga you ARE special. Watch out you don’t melt in all that glory snowflake.

@17 Well, if you can’t have a Pepsi, there’s always drugs.
Reminds me of Vietnam. The Army wouldn’t allow enlisted men (regardless of age) to have liquor. So they all smoked weed or did drugs instead.
This was actually kind of funny. The Army’s rationale was that enlisted personnel were too immature to handle hard liquor. Meanwhile, the officers were drunk all the time.

We’ll see how many electoral votes NY has after the next census.
Between 2000 and 2010 NY gained 400,000 people.
http://www.thegreenpapers.com/.....tors.phtml
And yet, the state lost two electoral votes.
Although, Cz-252, that does not factor the “absolute lock” on electoral votes that I’m sure you are going to tell me that New York has.

That’s a climbdown for you. You’ve conceded his @ 16 points.

I’ve seen my team win a National championship in person here in Seattle. I’ve seen my team in person play in two Final Fours. My Team has appeared in 18 final fours. My team has a .770 tournament win percentage. My team has more NCAA Basketball championships than any school. When my school wins a conference championship the banner goes in the practice gym. Only National Titles hang from the arena ceiling.
My Alma Mater has more NCAA Championships in all D1 sports than any other school in the country. They have seven Nobel Laureates currently on faculty and fifteen Nobel Laureates among alumni and faculty.
I’m quite comfortable dismissing the little basketball academy in Spokane. Let me know when you win something. Or develop a research hospital instead of needing UW to build a little medical school for you.

Nice. Next time, try moving the goalposts before you kick the own-goal.
Seattle’s congressional representation also increased recently, so by your logic, it’s a really great place to live.
Move them again…
@ 30
Seattle is a really great place to live. Some of the surrounding areas are even better.
When NY loses another EV or two post-2020, be sure and revisit your claim about NY’s population growth. We’ll be all-ears then. Promise.
Or, when Arizona gains one or two EVs in a few years, maybe use that to justify #CrookedHillary’s decision to campaign there with a week to go before the election, while she was hemorraging support in the Rust Belt. ’cause she was operating according to the dictates of the 2024 electoral map.
Yeah, that’s the ticket.

I’m not conceding anything. There’s nothing to concede. The fact remains they made it to the national championship game. Unless he went to North Carolina his argument doesn’t mean Jack schitt.
The fact of the matter is they are a school with less than 8000 students and have been to the Big Show for 19 straight years. I don’t give a fuck who you are that’s impressive. You can make all the excuses you want about how you think it’s not impressive, but that doesn’t change anything.
The bottom line is basketball is over and hockey playoffs are here. Go Thunderbirds

When we were picking teams for tackle football on my block, each time we offered an automatic spot on the team to one of the Catholic kids down the street. For 19 weeks in a row the biggest of the McMullen clan got picked to play, usually last or next-to-last pick.
Most times, one or two plays in he would leave with a bloody nose or a skinned knee. But there was this one game when he nearly scored. Fumbled at the 5-yard line. And then cried. Like a tall Joey Cora.

I was raised Catholic so I would have been in. Monsignor would have seen to it for me. Admissions requirements as stated on their official website.
An unweighted GPA at or below 3.2.
An “old SAT” combined score for Critical Reading and Math at or above 1070.
An ACT composite score at or above 23.
Check, check and check
But hey, my GPA/SAT/ACT was good enough to get into a truly world class academically respected University so I did something right.
Here’s a list of notable Gonzaga Grads. Hmmm, no Fortune 500 CEOs. No Nobel Laureates. No NCAA Champions, No Pulitzer winners…
Sad that the highest glory achieved by the Basketball Academy of Spokane was that time they ALMOST won.

Interesting. I note that Gonzaga’s bids each year are based on an unweighted schedule of its opponents.
@31 “When NY loses another EV” deep-blue Seattle probably will get it, given our population growth here. How well does that math work for you, dumbfuck?
Remember all the other Administrations’ First Hundred Days when the National Security Adviser resigned and the National Security Council had a shakeup and the number one legislative priority went down in flames and the FBI confirmed an investigation regarding possible espionage by multiple campaign staff and the child of the president being appointed to a White House Position?

It’s a Lemon Drop.
The stock market, which was up 200 points earlier today, has turned negative despite a robust ADP jobs report because the Fed minutes released at midday suggested the Fed will begin unwinding its $4 trillion sooner than investors expected.
It doesn’t surprise me, though. If Yellen intends to retract the Fed’s accommodation, she needs to do it before her term expires next year, and Trump (if he’s still around then) installs some idiot in her chair.
We’ll probably see the gold standard reinstated in 2018. That’s how little Trump and his so-called advisers (aka his kids) know about the economy.
@49 I’m guessing it wouldn’t take more than a lemon drop to kick your dumbfuck ass, if push came to shove.

True story. I was sent to Orlando early in my career to sit with and shoot a fairly well known person for the Additional Features commentary for a deluxe Pixar box set of one of their pretty well known features. I flew in on Friday night and due to the talent’s schedule I was to just roll on him talking and ad libbing about the movie while he watched it on Saturday, have Sunday off and shoot again on Monday afternoon. Friday evening when I checked into the hotel there was a message waiting for me that the talent I was to work with had broken his leg that afternoon and the whole thing was off for at least four weeks when they would try to get him to me back in L.A.
I could have spent my time rolling my camera on nothing in the studio which is what I was paid to do. Instead I OUTRAAAAAAAAGEOUSLY went to Epcot, the Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios while Disney paid me. I could have flown home too and they still would have paid me.

86,
Ossoff is doing really well so far. He’s raised over $8 million from more than 200,000 contributors with over $2 million on hand for the final stretch. He’s very media proficient and sharp as hell. If he can pull over 50% he avoids a runoff. He scares the GOP.
The Trump administration’s internal conflicts exploded onto the front pages again this morning, when the New York Times reported that a battle royale is raging between the globalists, led by son-in-law Jared Kushner, and the nationalists, led by Steve Bannon, who was just deposed from the NSC. Not only that, but the Ryan wing of the GOP wants to scapegoat Bannon for the stumbling failures of Trumps first two months.
This story is highly significant, not only because it emphasizes the deep splits within the GOP — which were inevitable, because Trump is not a cookie-cutter Republican, and departs from GOP orthodoxy in many ways — but more importantly, because it could determine whether Trump engages with the world or pursues isolation policies for the rest of his term (however long or short that may be).
For Trump, it’s not a simple matter of resetting his presidency, because if he shunts aside Bannon and the nationalist sentiments he espouses, he abandons much of the base that elected him. But if he doesn’t, he will be splitting with his closest and most trusted advisers — his daughter Ivanka and her husband Kushner, not to mention the most influential wing of the Republican Party.

They see 56 counties “dominated” by Republicans. Well, some of those counties have fewer registered voters than sheep. The political strength of Montana lies in it’s cities which are dominated by land grant universities, a younger population, above average education, above average incomes, government employees, and yes, ultimately politically more progressive voters. If Quist and his supporters succeed without the DCCC they won’t forget it. That’s not good party building.

Breaking News — Seattle Mayor Ed Murray Accused of Molestation
In case you haven’t heard, Seattle Mayor Ed Murray is being sued by a man who claims Murray sexually molested him when he was a troubled teen in the 1980s.
http://www.seattletimes.com/se.....-in-1980s/
Roger Rabbit Commentary: The filing of a lawsuit, of course, does not prove guilt. Murray is entitled to due process on these allegations. But if they’re true, I would expect him to resign.
How did Assad use chemical weapons when Susan Rice said Obummer’s sadministration removed them all?
Oh wait… Susan Rice said whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?
So the blood of Khan Sheikoun resides in who’s hands? Who drew that imaginary line in the sand and then ignored it again?
Obummer did!
I see that the loon showed up to lay a couple of double-post head explosions of hate on us. Chrome kicks loon butt!
So, anyone give a shit that we just fired 50 Tomahawk missiles into Syria?
@ 115
The filing of a lawsuit, of course, does not prove guilt.
No, of course not. The presumption of guilt upon accusation is reserved for Republicans.
For the record, my opinion is that Mayor Murray is being subjected to a shake-down – somebody’s looking for $$$, and that’s it.
Syria is a problem, but Trump is making it into our problem. It doesn’t have to be. Just get the hell out of the Middle East and stay out. The people there will solve their own problems. When they see mostly-white, mostly Christian faces, in their lands, carrying heavy weapons, it pisses the Muslims off. The only thing they will unite against is a bunch of “crusaders” showing up to screw around in their corner of the world.
Get the Westerners, the Russians and other non-residents out and the people of the area will solve their issues to their liking, not anyone else’s. We don’t get to dictate to them, and they don’t get to dictate to us.
So what is it with liberal PNW mayors and underage males?
And dammit, why can’t anyone catch the perp who beat up that activist during Gay Pride week?
No, of course not. The presumption of guilt upon accusation is reserved for Republicans.
This from a guy who keeps using the word “Crooked” to describe someone who has been repeatedly investigated, without indictment, for almost a quarter-century.
Snivel harder into your Bud Lite, you poor, poor put-upon loser, and it might almost achieve the mouthfeel of a hand-crafted NW Ale.
@ 121
Remove the word “liberal” from the first sentence.
Spokane slipped my mind, and HA isn’t letting me edit right now.
For the record, my opinion is that Mayor Murray is being subjected to a shake-down – somebody’s looking for $$$, and that’s it.
That, or possibly his political opponents now understand they can’t field anyone except a handful of crank candidates, and are getting desperate.
118,
= $75 million tax hike.
You can handle it.
@ 124
That, or possibly he’s guilty.

BREAKING: A high ranking administration official says foreign countries from Arab states to Canada supported tonight’s strikes vs. Syria.
6:33 PM – 6 Apr 2017
So, tomorrow’s shaping up to be a big day in the stock market – Syria, The Reid Option, Labor numbers for March.
Always remember:
My Notadumbfuck Investing Method.
’cause you-know-who is gonna have a lot to say. None of it accurate.
Probably no truth to the rumor that Ivanka Trump bought advertising time before and after the address to the nation that Trump has planned for tonite.
@ 122
Extremely Careless is the new Crooked.
@116 Maybe they made some more. Even when people hand over their nuclear, biological, or chemical weapons, they don’t forget how to make them. Assad has had several years to replenish his supply. I’m not saying that’s how he got them, I’m just kicking around possibilities.
Skimming the article about Mayor Murray, it seems damning. I agree with Rabbit, Murray is entitled to due process on these allegations. But if they’re true, I would expect him to resign.
@118 Fine with me. But from what CNN reports, Trump went after the airplanes that dropped the weapons, and the attacks are over for now. That seems pretty limp-wristed to me. He should shove a cruise missile up Assad’s ass. That guy is a baby killer who more than deserves to get taken out, and the world would be a better place if his body parts were splattered over several acres.
Trump gets to be a war time president, so we can’t possibly investigate those russian allegations during wartime.
@ 131
Fucking Moron, you don’t think the allegations against Murray could be just another corporate lie?
133,
I don’t think the Russians are going to be particularly happy with the American attack on Syria. They want to have Syria as a puppet state, and if America is blowing up Syria, the Russians don’t have the wealth and logistics chain to re-supply Syria. After all, the USSR lost the Cold War because it simply couldn’t keep up with the spending the Americans were doing.
@ 135
Running out of money is troublesome, I agree.
Look at all of those UTIs Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit keeps getting, because he reuses his urethral catheters so he can save a few bucks here and there. Ick.
@119 Republicans are guilty of being Republicans. So what does that entail? Well, for one thing, putting stupidity on a pedestal and worshipping it. Like the Pennsylvania state senator who gives speeches arguing that climate change is caused by more humans giving off more body heat. In fact, saying something intelligent is grounds for getting kicked out of the GOP. So, even if you’re not terminally stupid, to be a Republican, you have to pretend you are. You also have to be willing to kick the poor, for example by voting against subsidized school lunches, Meals on Wheels, and voting for making it a crime to give a sandwich to a homeless person. And you have to become expert at the art of cavilling, which is essential for preventing social progress from occurring and making sure nothing good ever happens in society. You have to vote for things like designating gun permits as valid voter ID, but state university student photo ID cards are not, because, you know, you want gun nuts to vote and you don’t want educated young people to vote. And, of course, to be a Republican you must interfere with a woman’s right to choose whether to have an unwanted or deformed or rapist’s baby, and then vote against any public support for foster care, child care, food assistance, or anything else that would help that woman support and raise that child after you’ve forced her to bring it into the world. And, of course, you also have to be against paying any taxes to educate that kid so he can get a decent job when he grows up. And you have to be in favor of executing possibly innocent people instead of looking at the evidence that suggests the criminal justice system made a mistake, and you have to be against reforming police departments full of crooked, corrupt, racist, and violent cops. Also, not to be overlooked, to be a Republican you have to be a bloodthirsty warmonger, and a shameless hypocrite. In other words, being guilty of being a Republican marks you as a pretty awful person. And if somebody votes for Republicans, that makes them a Republican, and you don’t need no frikken due process or trial to prove they’re a Republican, because just being a Republican proves it.
@120 “For the record, my opinion is that Mayor Murray is being subjected to a shake-down – somebody’s looking for $$$, and that’s it.”
In other words, you believe the Seattle Times is venal enough to run a front-page story that essentially destroys Murray’s reputation based on nothing more than a shakedown artist’s say-so.
And you also believe that some attorney filed a lawsuit accusing a prominent and powerful public figure of being a pedophile in complete disregard of the ethics rule requiring attorneys to investigate the factual basis for a lawsuit before filing same, and without giving a thought to her exposure under Rule 11 for filing a baseless lawsuit.
Yes, these professional journalists and lawyer(s) just decided to play an extortion game with Murray, never mind that could get them lengthy prison sentences.
I’ve met boxes of rocks smarter than you.

@127 I’m with Warren Buffett. I like it when the stock market goes down, and I don’t want my stocks to go up. If you need to know why, ask Warren. He’ll explain how it works, and why, if your stocks went up more than mine did, that means you’re fucked.
@113 Right!
@114 Right!
@129 Oh, shading definitions, now that you’ve been shown up for a blowhard? Changing the meaning of words is always the last refuge of lying scoundrels when they’re caught.
It’s official: “Crooked” and “careless” now mean the same thing, because Doctor Dumbfuck says so. Somehow, though, I don’t think that will ever catch on in the courts.
I wonder what Doctor Dumbfuck would say if I posted that cancer and pneumonia are the same thing?
Who really cares if the mayor is guilty? So he resigns. Discussing it is just political football and a waste of time.
Students raping women – nobody cares.
Men beating up their wives – nobody cares.
Priests molesting little boys and girls – nobody cares.
Coaches molesting their student – nobody cares.
Teaches having sex with students – nobody cares.
Steve gives Max blowjobs – nobody cares.
Men and women committing adultry – nobody cares.
Drumpf married 3 times and probably in an unspoken divorce as of this moment – nobody cares.
Republicans hanging out in bathroom stalls – nobody cares.
Mayor of Seattle rapes boy – who cares?
Russians made promise in 2913 that they would make sure Syria had no chemical weapons, why is our current fuckwad of a president not hold them acoountable and been their best friend?
@133 Well, yes, that thought occurred to me too. The worst thing Assad or any other tinpot ruler could do to America is turn Trump into a war president. Remember all the evil that flowed from Osama bin Laden turning a guy who reads “My Pet Goat” upside down into a war president? We were stuck with him for eight years.
Which leads me to wonder this: I wonder if Putin put Assad up to it? Maybe even paid him a lot of money, and promised him a first-rate dacha on the Black Sea if things go south and he has to go into exile? We already know Putin went to a fair amount of trouble and expense to get Trump his first term. How much more effort does it take to persuade Assad to kill some babies with nerve gas to ensure that Trump gets a second term, too?
And let’s say Assad did get rid of his chemical weapons when Obama told him to. Who would be in a position to reach at a shelf and ship him fresh supplies of nerve gas? For that matter, who might provide Russian rebels fighting in eastern Ukraine with missiles capable of knocking down a civilian airliner flying at altitude? Whoooo could that be? Hmmm??
War president, indeed.
Proofreading, Eddie!
The way I see it is that it will turn Drumpf’s numbers high in favaorablity, so long as no Russians die.
What I find more hypocritical about this is that he tweeted about Obama not to get involved and stay out of it and know hr jumps in. And he’s bad mouthed the UN but now he needs the UN.
I’m not so much bothered by what happened tonight even though it could become a bloody mess, but I’m more bothered by the two faced fuck that is a crook and and liar, and it’s only going to possibly go in his favor when he doesn’t deserve it. He’s a schmuck and a fake and phoney.
Doctor Dumbfuck sputtered something the other day about hanging curveballs … even Drumpf can hit this one.
@134 They might be, for all you or I know. We’ll have to wait and see. That’s what court trials are for.
Men and women committing adultery – Between consenting adults. Who cares.
Drumpf married 3 times and probably in an unspoken divorce as of this moment – Who cares but Republicans would only care if this was a black democrat.
However,
Students raping women – Oh hell no. Not consent.
Adult rapes boy – Oh hell no. Not adult and Not consenting.
So Boob what do you think. Spill your guts and without even replying to any of what I said.
Tell us what you think.
@135 “I don’t think the Russians are going to be particularly happy with the American attack on Syria.”
Au contraire, the Russkies had every reason to engineer precisely this attack, and may be celebrating as you type because they pulled it off. See explanation @150.
@155 and then why are college men still raping if anyone really cares?
@136 The lab told me it had your DNA on it. Yeccchh!!!
@151 no. I’m glad you are wasting your time doing so though. We know people so superior like yourself and the blueprint reader never makes mistakes tooooooooooo.
@139 You can find virtually anything if the script requires you to find it.
@148 You’ve got a point, but you left one out:
Idiot voters elect incompetent novice to White House, who stumbles into a nuclear war, and everything gets blown up — who cares? Nobody because there won’t be anyone around to care.
@152 Maybe he watched “Wag the Dog” last weekend. Or maybe Chimp tipped him off. There’s lots of people who might’ve turned him on to this.
War president, indeed.
Hell, maybe Putin even gave his puppet preznit the target coordinates. Then will ship Assad a fresh batch of airplanes next week. Notice that Drumpf didn’t go after Assad? Putin didn’t grant permission for that.
@162 I’m with you on that one!
@164 I’m with you on that one too.
That’s the whole irony of this shit. Drumpf And Putin are in collusion.
Warn Russia to step back on this one.
Dinner with the Chinese premier.
Authorize missile strike on a cruel dictator.
Get your first SCOTUS nominee confirmed.
Wow, that’s not a bad 24 hours. Bet #CrookedHillary wishes it could have been her.
I didn’t see a lot of what Drumpf said but what I did see or hear from Drumpf is a lot of god this and god that in his speech with a grand finale of god bless.
Not only a war President but he’s trying to warm all the hearts of the evangelicals. More irony, when evangelicals want to go to war.
And bring religion right into this so you can’t build nore Muslim fear and dislike.
@167. Ohhh those poor little trees.
Russians made promise in 2913 that they would make sure Syria had no chemical weapons, why is our current fuckwad of a president not hold them acoountable and been their best friend?
What a moronic twit.
Russia is complicit and incompetent on these chemical weapons just as Susan Rice is a liar. See #116!

Remember, Russia was kicked out of the middle east back in the 70s. Obummer allowed them back in in 2015. Soooooooooooooooo, now we see what a leader does!
(((Goldy))) @GoldyHA
The GOP’s gambit is that they can disenfranchise and gerrymander enough to subvert the democracy and seize permanent one-party control.
8h
Actually, it’s that Obama was a one-off and Dems will instead adhere to the primary season wisdom which gave them Gore, Kerry, and #CrookedHillary.
@167 “Warn Russia to step back on this one.”
Ha ha ha … you actually think that? See #150. Good chance here that Trump is merely a puppet dancing on Putin’s strings.
“Authorize missile strike on a cruel dictator.”
Is that, like, hard to do or something? It’s child’s play. Even Neville Chamberlain, if he were still alive, could have done it.
@170 “Russia is complicit and incompetent on these chemical weapons just as Susan Rice is a liar. See #116!”
Right. So why do you shill for a shyster who sucks up to Moscow?
Until a few hours ago the official hillbilly line was that the US has no interest in playing global cop and our only interest is to defeat ISIS.
Directly targeting civilians didnt change that. Rounding up and executing children didnt change that. Targeting doctors and refugee camps didnt change that.
But something that happened in the last week or two changed that.
Huh.
Now the hillbillys are back to playing Globo-Cop again.
Yemen?
Sudan?
Hungary?
Target rich environment.
“Authorize astronomically expensive missile strike on buildings and pavement overseen by a cruel dictator.”
ftfy
@172 “Obummer allowed them back in in 2015. Soooooooooooooooo, now we see what a leader does!”
More like they invited themselves into Syria. So, O Strategic Deep Thinker, what do you think Obama should have done about it? Bomb the Russian naval base in Tartus? Did Obama ask Putin’s permission to fly American reconnaissance planes off his coastline, or ask China’s permission to sail American battle fleets through the South China Sea? He can’t tell the Russians what to do, moron, any more than they can tell us what to do. We taxpayers just have to hope that ships don’t collide, planes don’t get shot down, and ICBMs don’t fly.
“Soooooooooooooooo, now we see what a leader does!”
Launch a calibrated retaliation, just like any president would do. In fact, it’s pretty clear this operation has been in planning for quite some time, and Trump didn’t have to think about it at all, beyond listening to his advisers tell him what to do, and then say, “Okay, do it.” Even a weekend golfer can manage that much.
@173 “which gave them Gore, Kerry, and #CrookedHillary”
Any one of whom would make a better president than any Republican you can name.
@176 Nothing has changed. The only thing that happened today is Trump stiffed his supporters again.
@177 Yeah, it does seem to me Trump should have killed someone, for example, the man who ordered the gas attack, or if that wasn’t feasible, then maybe the pilots who flew the planes.
Well, all this business with Syria will take the spotlight over the Mayor Murray situation.
Overheard conversation at al-Shayrat earlier last night:
“Say. Did the rest of you guys notice none of the Russians were at mess?”
“I heard someone say they were all too busy packing.”
“That’s some weird shit, huh?”
If they time this stuff precisely enough, Tillerson could make it all the way through to 2020 without ever having to meet with Putin.
All but about a dozen Republicans voted NO to authorize a strike against Syria after a Sarin attack.
But things were very different then.
Some of Trump’s biggest supporters are furious about his strikes in Syria – Vox
