I love that Kirstie Alley called out the young Bernsters as those who don’t pay much income tax.

Trump is the best hope for a renascent American economy

Yes, protective tariffs will be as big a boon as they were last time.

Is there a renascent quality to this list? The grifters are still at it. Poor, dead broke Hillary — $21 million in 2 years. I should be so poor!

Agreed - but it’s an evil that will recur eternally because people will always think it will be different this time because they’re wiser or more intelligent. And it’s always going to be a lie.

I heard about the game only after it was over - Heard it was a shocking series of (they lost a chance/missed a chance) and (we got lucky/got good) over and over again.

Dead wrong. And he seems so insulated from the real result of his statements.

There have been far too many errant statements to just chalk it up to ignorance, naivete, etc. Something is seriously askew there and it is a horrifying prospect for us Catholics. I have to say the thing that most alarmed me was the photo of his display of annoyance, irritation, when someone bumped him into the disabled person. Popes have been jostled, bumped and in JP2’s case SHOT, and have displayed nothing but Christian charity. that he showed visible annoyance was shocking to me. we have NEVER seen that from a Pope.

Hmmmn. Didn’t know about that incident. But you are right, it is telling.

What I would have naturally expected from a Manhattan-liberal elite bureaucrat socialist who spends her days and her life lecturing the rest of us about how to love one another and demanding everybody else follow their rules on how to spend what little money is left over after death and taxes.

Vatican spokesman said it was a very normal, very human reaction at the end of a long day. Previous popes were all equally human, normal, and had equally long days, we never heard a peep about a Pope SNAPPING at someone.

My initial reaction is he might have been upset about hurting the child by being pulled onto him.

lots of explanations for it, like I said, it’s human, understandable, etc. but unprecedented. and did you read what he said to the person? it was more than an expression of annoyance or concern, he was reaming them. I cannot imagine that similar situations did not occur with previous popes.
