WTH? People are rising up against the coming tyrannical overlords, the communist, marxist and socialist dictators would would destroy the Constitution, wipe out the last vestiges of our freedom and enslave us all. WHO CARES if they are incompetent or not? This is an existential war for the survival of the US as founded.
petrels
The word petrel comes from the Latin name for the Christian Saint Peter, and refers to the habits of certain species to hover just above the ocean waves, with their feet barely touching the water, thus giving an appearance of walking on water, as St. Peter is said to have done.
It works, so they keep using it! racism.
We should riot over obama and the left calling us toothless, dumb, deplorable, clinging to our guns and Bibles.....
Do any of you remember amos and andy? or the black guy on Margie? or...
the left has become unhinged over nothing.. except it seems to work...
I’m really weary with adults getting feelings hurt all day over something. It’s childish.

You are absolutely on the mark!
The dems are the kkk people... they fought losing their “workers”.
What ever happened to “Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me!”
THE MEDIA ARE THE EVIL DEEP STATERS, AND THEY DECIDE WHAT'S NEWSWORTHY. RINSE AND REPEAT!
Until the masses begin to realize that the media and the DEEP STATE GLOBAL CABAL are interchangeable terms, the shaping of a the ANTI-TRUMP REALITY continues..
...this can hardly be persuasive to true believers for whom gender, race, and sexual politics explain history. For them abortion, high taxes, and a giant state are articles of faith and challenging them is evil. Words, arguments, or symbolic proofs are largely useless against strongly held beliefs. Only experience can falsify -- and only temporarily -- cultic belief. In this respect, Venezuela is also instructive. It changed. For decades Venezuela's poor held loyal to the belief that the socialists were on "their side." Now they are fighting Maduro. How did this turnabout happen?
...The most telling indicator of socialism's fall in Venezuela is that forces have flipped. Now it is the poor who challenge Maduro and the Russian- and Cuban-supported military that props up the regime. One way to understand this is that the burn through moment in Venezuela occurred.
This might also throw light on why Hillary failed precisely at the very moment the dream seemed close enough to touch. At that instant it was clear enough to see.
Thanks billorites.
I yearn for the return of a Larry Summers to the presidency of Harvard!!!!
In the most recent issue of “Colloquy” (from Harvard’s Graduate School of Arts and Sciences) the featured article is about “gender fluidity”.
https://gsas.harvard.edu/colloquy-magazine/winter-2019
https://gsas.harvard.edu/news/colloquy/winter-2019/clear-identity
Then there is another article about a similar subject including “gender neutral” bathrooms in the Harvard Houses:
https://gsas.harvard.edu/news/colloquy/winter-2019/word-power
Also included are articles on what is essentially a new “dean for diversity”.
There is only ONE solid article featuring excellent scholarship—written about a woman, of course:
https://gsas.harvard.edu/news/colloquy/winter-2019/elevating-spirit
When I was at the Harvard GSAS, the focus was on hard work, research and scholarship! “Gays” were called Queers and were very seldom mentioned, and anything about “Transgenders” and “diversity” was not even conceived of!!!! That’s the way it should be!
Of course, once the “transgender” and “diversity” genie is out of the bottle, it is hard to put it back!!!
In any case, Harvard should refrain from sending their evil swill to old (and young) alumni who might even be conservative Christians who are trying to lead a moral life—sinners thought we are!!!!
The whole racialist/sexist meme has become ludicrous and anti-rational. Clearly, many people don’t have enough to do.
“We’ve been looking for the enemy for some time now. We’ve finally found him. We’re surrounded. That simplifies things.”

So, are all those cities racist too? For what happened in the 1950's?
I think the current generations have had it too soft -- no global devastation of World War or a decade-long Great Depression. People in the West are far too wealthy and have far too much free time which allows them time to pursue frivolous garbage. There's a real lack of seriousness afoot throughout the Western world.
I fear that sometime in the future we are going to pay dearly for this ridiculous lack of seriousness and attention to frivolous BS.
That's right: soot.
This world has gone fully and dangerously stupid.
Didn’t know the origin of the word `petrel’. Thanks.
Then there’s the Monty Python sketch about the theater snack vendor “Albatross, I’ve got this albatross!” Once it’s sold the vendor sings out,
“Stormy petrel on a stick! Gannet ripple!”
I'm so sorry I even read this article/post/whatever it is.
How did this happen? Anyone who's studied the different forms of government and economic systems knows the answer: Socialism came to its inevitable and natural end. Period.
Hungry people REVOLT in order to survive.
Duh.
Nobody remembers that the Bruins were the first NHL team with a Black player (1957) and the Celtics were one of the three NBA teams that took the first black players (1950) or that the Boston Braves had an African-American player in 1950, before many other MLB teams did.
[ This world has gone fully and dangerously stupid. ]
Just the kind of world conditions needed for a one-world-government and the Antichrist. (and the religious false prophet)
Destroy tradition, destroy borders, rewrite everything, make everything an offense, stifle independent thought and speech, promote globalism, blame everything on “The Jews” and end national sovereignty.
And go cashless. How’s about a world currency? A one-world curency?
