A strong case of denial. A++
If you insist on putting too many apostrophies in the wrong place every time you win, place, or show up for a contest, you may have a compunctuation complusion.
Would a comstraction urge fix it?
Compunction junction, what’s your function?
LOL A++
Egads, but this last year of his term isn’t going any better than the last 7. A++
Elsewhere I read that Obama said (when discussing the San Bernardino Massacre) that this country has a pattern of mass shootings un-paralleled to any other country. Therefore we need stricter laws.
I’d say that Mr. Prez is not noticing that the perpetrators of the vast majority these mass killlings are Muslims, or Muslim sympathizers, and that most of them obtained their weapons outside of any law on the books. I’d say that we have a Muslim problem more than a gun problem.
Seeing references to killer getting guns legally, haven’t seen it confirmed by a news source yet, though. So he was screened by some of the strictest gun control laws in the country and still got a gun. You are right about it being a Muslim problem......but then Obama vowed that “The future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of islam. (UN September 25, 2012) He warned us.
Yes he definitely does have isis contained
During the Fast, I abstain from making “negative” posts on the Internet. Hence you get only posts such as I made on this thread from me.
Of course, there is plenty of cause to make “negative” posts (including “classic rants”) during this Nativity Fast (Advent) season, as there was during the Dormition Fast in August. Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner!!!!
You are a stalwart Christian, me, I try, but can’t live up to that. Happy Advent, our Lord is coming!
Oh that is a good one!
So, while watching the shooting unfold yesterday, as it got later and later and we knew they had killed at least one of the participants, our household knew there was some kind of Islamic connection. Any other killer would have been identified and announced to be a Christian conservative extremist.
MSNBC said that the three actors were stopped as they showed the scene live.......actors....not suspects, killers or terrorists. Actors. Wow. Such idiocy and they give us the news.
And I love our new technology......a friend of a friend on FB taped the scene on tv and posted it to FB. This needs exposing.
It’s police lingo, isn’t it? Once back in college, a person wrote in from the College of Fine Arts complaining that the police blotter in the campus paper referred to “actors.”
LOL Really? As in the verb, they acted. I picture a Hollywood actor when I hear that. Live and learn. Crazy.
They are in Elk City, OK, on their way home. 22.5 hours drive time away. Getting excited.
Has the son-in-law experienced winter yet?
