In the UM-Dearborn History "department" in the 1991-1993 time when I attended (i think it was just the College of Arts Sciences and Lit which had a hallway for some history classrooms). they had a mural with important historical documents for our democracy. It was nice stuff to set one's spirt's soaring. So, one document was the declaration of Independence, another the preamble of the Constitution, another the Emancipation Proclamation. One of them was Eisenhower's letter to the troops setting forth for D-Day. Another General McCaulif of the 101st Airborne's response to the Nazi's surrender demands in the siege of Bastogne during the Battle of the Bulge. I'm sure there were all sorts of others i don't need to recall here. This one belongs on that mural if I retrospectively return to that mural in my mind.

this remains an excellent statement.

I really hate bad faith arguments.

Let's hope other big institutions follow suit.

Kari Lake was trying to be an fact-abhorring, self-obsessive sociopathic climber on the Dem side before she was trying to do it on the GOP side.

this is a cynical exercise in cheerleading but its damn right. Russia's stuff is all facacta

This seems like its going well

Elon is not just nuts

I just have no patience for bad faith arguments anymore. I am at the point where it will hurt my soul to give these mouth-breathers the time of day.

I am not surprised they were Selling pardons.

My brain just exploded at the exceedingly gross notion of a geriatric, hair died Rudy G being that sexually predatory.

Very troubled. However, let me put on my pre-2015 hat: The house organ of the DC establishment does a thing. It does not do that thing in a vacuum. Its like wondering why the NYT covers Trump with credulity. Clearly, they are doing things on behalf of the NY plutocrats who pay their salaries.

The Tory party may be silly and ignorant but they have been right about this since day one. I hope the GOP leadership takes notes.

Ukraine had a good weekend. The Russian Air Force is a clown show. Prigozhin is heading for the dirt.

Not so nice, Donald

nearly a plot of a General Hospital storyline from the 80s.

I just coached a game as one-sided as this. Ugly day for me.

Can't clean up aisle lunatic if they are handing out crap wholesale and punishing those who want to clean it up.

Must be fun whatever is happening.

I think we have riffed off into comedy jazz here that is of interest only to self-indulgent hipsters like us.

Hold on now. I had already learned that from "Scarface." He seemed much nicer in "Grand Budapest Hotel."

The ref to Don Bonjovi made me think of “Amadeus” which made me riff on the idea of a movie where some RW idiot plots the demise of a great artist but constantly struggles because his anti-vaccine, flat Earth weltanshaung is constantly running into real world realities.

what will really bake your noodle is this: I can just see some seer sucker suit wearing guy dabbing a white handkerchief on his reddened forehead -- just below the straw boater hat -- when he reads that his pappy's pappy's pappy was a neegro.
