Please have mercy on us dial up limited FReepers! Limit the big graphics, post links instead. A brief description of what the graphic is would help:

I like the newer reruns because I've seen all the Beavers and Lucys at least 20 times each over the years. They no longer hold any interest.

[B4Ranch]

I didn't say anything about cooking, only flipping that omelot. Yes, the Mrs. does ask me to flip 'em. We're all trim but not slim.

Some Syrian diplomat is on Fox right now. who care Islamo-Fascists for peace are like hookers for chastity.

[The Wizard]

I hope that Syria turns out to be an ally, eventually

[Consort]

..A recent meeting of the NOW Liberal Clitorati.

[ztiworoh]

Still... it's the principle of the thing for me

As long as Seinfeld or Home Improvement doesnt show up there, that is NOT classic tv, good and funny YES, not "Classic"

[nicollo]

"everyone owns a gun."

Actually, Tocqueville talked about that. He was more interested in the self-interest of the individual than in collective defense. Same difference.

[Tree of Liberty]

Hmmmmm...

[ztiworoh]

He looks like Comb-over's little brother

[melodie]

sounds like a plan..lmao

[Tree of Liberty]

Exactly. It is in an individual's self-interest to have a collective defense.

[B4Ranch]

We don't have enough money to buy Syria as an ally.

[Fledermaus]

You just had to go there, didn't you? lol

[ninenot]

As far as the J-school kids are concerned, history began the day they were born. What do you suppose they would have said about making those poor elephants climb the Alps???

[Timeout]

Is that Ahmed's generator we hear running behind the CBS camera?

[The Wizard]

we don't have to by them

[Tree of Liberty]

Hey, texxie. Not to much. We've just been thinking of intriguing bedroom uses for that flat whisk that's been ubiquitous on FNC.

[ztiworoh]

MMM... Whisk

Another writer, and I apologize for not remembering who, said that America was dangerous because "we fought wars like we play sports or fight business .... Then the writer concluded by remarking that he not sure if we (America) were all the more dangerous for treating war as sport, or business."

Clinton developed national policy by reading the tea leaves and polls and dnc ficus groups - and was dangerous because everything he did was therefore deliberately and immediately popular with the masses - lubricated by a compliant press national corpse who wanted Hillary in office, of course.

Bush saw that his dad was defeated because he backed away from his principles ... and has vowed (to himself) never to repeat that same mistake.

[Tree of Liberty]

Hehehe, how could I not?
