Appreciate your answering my question as to what is TFT.
re: Very interesting story. I need help understanding this part:
I, too, would like to know as sadly I got tied up at the East Coast Garden Club — thinking it has something to do with The Manchurian Candidate’s Garden Club and can’t get back on track.

I’m sorry if my post #1687 is to blame. Perhaps the correct term is “Garden PARTY Republican.”
I think it was an article by Pat Buchanan in National Review in the early- to mid-90s that used that phrase to describe the sort of Republican who looked down his or her nose at the new converts to the GOP (Southerners, Evangelicals, Pro-Life People, White “ethnics,” etc.) and preferred being in the permanent minority.
Y’know, that scene in The Manchurian Candidate works, too. The soldiers imagined similar educated upper-middle-class women meeting in Atlantic City for their annual Garden Club convention. I think these are exactly the type Pat Buchanan was referring to.
I believe I have at least 4 species in my yard including geckos. We even had a visiting 6ft iguana once. At first I thought it a nuisance gator, but alas it was an iguana cuz gators don't climb trees (thank goodness). Unfortunately he had to be put down. I understand they're quite delicious critters.
Pepe Fahms ‘membahs.
Made up leaks to be precise.
At one of his speeches in 96 at State Convention, he warned us about China and was soundly hissed at and booed at from the right side of the room, which was full of the establishment Republicans. It was also a minority. My state sent his delegates right to the convention. As I recall, so did Texas delegates. At the time I was shocked at what happened. Most favored nation trading status was simply a form of modern slavery as the communist Chinese peasants, slave laborers so American politicians and wealthy can get even more rich. That’s a fact. All politicians would plunder us. Just as Patton said, “a politician is the lowest form of life”. Now he did say “a Democrat is the lowest form of politician” so there is that. The GOPe always has ethics issues.
Yep. Good that gators don’t climb trees. It’s bad enough that mountain lions do. And they can defeat a gator.
I saw an article earlier on Twitter (didn't save) that the farmers and politicians were meeting, but the politicians aren't budging on their position. This has a chance to get real ugly.
Beware Of The Flying Monkeys: Curbing Vindictive Behavior In The Office
Flying monkeys has become a way of referencing how someone else does the bidding of another, and not for altruistic purposes. More specifically, according to the article “Are You A Narcissist’s Flying Monkey?”, the term was coined after the Wicked Witch of the West’s flying monkeys that “were sent by the witch to do her dirty work.”

Bagster couldn’t have done it any better.😆
Helena Blavatsky... it’s not what you’re born out of. it’s what you learn along the way. She knows more about our history then any historian I’ve ever heard get right.
Is that the sound tough, but have no teeth playbook?
Darnkess, not darkness.
10 days without AC would like totally suck at my house.
Thank you for your kind freepmail and this post... reading Bagster’s posts will make my day!
Who made that site about Derek (on a templated web service they can hide behind)? Ask that question first.
Did they ever take over all the farms?

***Like selling our scrap metal to the Japanese during the 1930s.
(Not popular on this board but there is a degree of truth to the marxist line about a capitalist selling the rope to hang him.)
I really liked Buchanan (I was the liaison for his campaign in my local Young Republican Club. He and I were not popular.) Everything he ever said or wrote has come true. He was miles ahead of everyone.
