In a speech, right before Congress went on their break, Pelosi called kwanza “schwanza”.

I choked on my tea.

(Is Pelosi ever sober?)

Was he the model for “handicapper in chief” from the movie 2081?

Ebenezer Scroggie

A dandy, a party animal, a kind and jovial fellow, and a notorious philanderer.

Namesake of the fictional character Ebenezer Scrooge. Scroggie was a vintner and corn merchant in Edinburgh who won the first whiskey supply contract for the Royal Navy and the catering contract for the visit of George IV to Edninburgh in 1822, the first British monarch to visit the city since the Battle of Culloden in 1746. Through his mother, Scroggie was the great-nephew of the 18th century political economist and philosopher Adam Smith.

In his diaries, Charles Dickens states that the Scrooge character of his 1843 novel “A Christmas Carol” stemmed from Scroggie’s grave marker which he saw on an evening walk in the Canongate Churchyard in 1841. Dickens, however mistook the inscription of “meal man” (corn merchant) for “mean man” and centered his story around the miserly character.

Quit your job. Stop working for a-holes. Do not waste your previous time.

Ban employee names like Matthew, Luke, john, Mark just in case it brings offense?

Er…according to Nancy, wouldn’t that be “Schwanza”?

It should be noted that due to this taking pace there had better not be any more of that hideous call to prayer sound ever again in that city. Have they banned that noise since it is insulting to most Americans after 9-11.

A Seattle official has been handed a sarcastic award for banning city workers from displaying Christmas or Hanukkah decorations in their own homes while on Zoom calls to avoid offending colleagues with different beliefs.

But the Civil War battle flags I have hanging from all of my walls are still okay, right?

Regards,

What's more infuriating than this woke asshat's dictate is that anyone obeyed at all.

The appropriate response to a request like that should have been then and is now I WON'T.

The arrogance of multiculturalism on display. Who is this African to tell Americans what they can do in their own home? Gloria is a bigot. He’s using his petty power to persecute Christians and Jews. It was a sad day when bigots got the power to be offended to rule others.

The hazards associated with zoom calls.

Why be offended? Would the preference be a no holds bar approach? How many would be offended by other religious symbols (all of them) used by the plethora of available symbology and iconic representations?

I would.

Also Muslims can wear their hijab and Sikhs can wear their turbans, in the home or at the office. Nothing offensive about that, doncha-know! /spit

Caesar would give the thumbs down to anyone wearing a crucifix, for fear of offending the pagan gladiators. Good grief, Charlie Brown.

There’s a very simple solution to this. The equity manager has decided that an employee’s home is actually a government office during a zoom call.

Send the government a bill for rental of office space.
A BIG bill.

Wow! That exposure by the “Daily Mail” should get Gloria fired. The City of Seattle has been revealed for its true colors and they couldn’t let that happen. What is really needed is a mass recall of the City Council members that includes the termination of their benefits.
