Don’t forget O’s total stupidity in calling navy medics “corpse men”. Twice, as I recall. Nobody (on the left) remembers that, but mention Dan Quayle and all you’ll hear is “potatoe”.

Well, I exaggerate not when saying he turned red and, with veins popping out in his neck, exclaimed, "Don't say that! Don't say that!" It was the kind of situation where you get the feeling the guy might take a swing at you.

The denial is strong in that one...

...which is probably the way MOST people SEE it written - Every time they go to the grocery store.

Bags labelled- “POTATOES”

Generally good, nothing new. The concept had been expressed years ago (if you read Dr. Sanity’s blog, no longer active).

However, I will have to disagree with this paragraph.

>>> .... This phenomenon is exacerbated by two related factors. First, liberals are generally dysfunctional, vice-ridden people who embrace what we call liberalism because its underlying relativism and nihilism help them justify their sins. (They become the arbiters of their own “values.” “Everything is gray, a matter of perspective. I have my own ‘truth.’”) Simultaneously, liberalism allows these virtue-bereft people to virtue-signal by paying homage to the day’s fashionable values. In other words, liberals are generally morally “unaccomplished” people who often have nothing to cling to but the illusion of intellectual, and often moral, superiority. <<<

This after the author described liberals’ need to put down people on the right, he can not help himself doing the same thing to liberals.

Over-generalization is a fault we all have, I guess.

In all honesty (sorry about this), but I couldn’t be married to a woman like that.
I married a woman who is intelligent, opinionated and strong willed.
The reason she dumped her previous boy friends and wound up with me is that they couldn’t compete with her.
Yes, we do occasionally (rarely)have disagreements that can get loud, but they are usually about the interpretation of an event or topic of discussion.
No disrespect meant towards your wife (I am sure she is a great person) but that garbage they continue to harp on on television does have a tendency to burrow into a persons mind after being repeated often enough.
Any lie repeated often enough starts to take on the patina of truth.
Again, I mean no disrespect towards your wife; she is the one person in your life that you should cherish above all others.

I understand, I know you mean no disrespect. I know her well enough to understand she isn’t a liberal (thank goodness) but she likes that female entertainment.

I don’t understand why, but then, she has the news channels on all day long, and I can’t even be in the presence of them.

She isn’t affected by television the same way I am. I cannot even sit through a commercial. As you imply, it feels like programming. How she can watch all those “Dances with the Stars” and “American Idol” I cannot fathom, but then, she can’t fathom why I am interested in some of the things I do, but...she respects me enough to let me do what I think is important.

Thankfully, I am not worried about her turning into a lib. Her views on enough things are conservative enough when she brings them up in conversation, that there is no way she would ever be welcome in those circles...:)

She is very intelligent, opinionated, and strong willed as well. It is one of the reasons I married her.
