He's a Trump sycophant, so only Faux news will appeal to him.

Which is why I specifically posted a Fox News article for his perusal. Don't know what he thought of it though; he's apparently been very busy for the past 14 hours and hasn't had time to go online.

The Hellcat Charger is faster and quicker. For our friend I'd say a
Hellcat Cherokee. Any of them spray testosterone such that the hookers
Mike drives by on a daily basis will be growing even more facial hair.

Both symptoms are exacerbated by low tire pressure.

That argues for a full-size truck or SUV. Tahoe? Escalade?

It doesn't disturb you that on Friday Trump said very specifically to reporters on Air Force One that he 'knew nothing' about Flynn's contacts with Russia, and today SpiceBoy tells the media that Trump was aware of it "for weeks"? Or that KellyAnne and SpiceBoy today made diametrically opposite statements about whether Trump fired Flynn or Flynn offered his resignation?

This is not newsworthy? That no one in the administration, least of all the Orange One at the top, can get their stories straight?

Sadly, that's really no longer news. It's just the way it is.

no, not at all.

I think Trump will be gone before the end of the year. Senate Repubs are talking about investigating. That means, I believe, they are already thinking they'd be better off with President Pence. They can and will (again...my opinion) provoke a fight with Trump, leading to the eventual impeachment, which will proceed pretty rapidly.

Yeah, lying on a daily basis and (in the Flynn case) knowing that your National Security Advisor broke the law and then sitting on this knowledge (and lying about it) until public opinion finally forced your hand, yeah that 'may turn out to be a good thing'.

Today, hypocrisy is overflowing in away that makes the Oroville Dam spillwater look like a trickle.

Now sure guys do often "get women back", but in 99% of those cases the women still wanted to hook up with them so they were bound to get them back anyways....had little to do with what the guy did/didnt do.

Really doesn't change my point. If you had treated her right she would have stayed with you and the other guy wouldn't have had the opportunity. The fact that he treats her as bad as you did, or even worse, doesn't change the fact that you gave him the opportunity by treating her badly yourself.
