  1. Boy, did this hit home. 2 sons, both extremely intelligent, both graduates of Pitt. Oldest son marries woman who is professor at NJ university in psychology. Everything fine until #44 gets "elected". When Trump arrived, relationship went into the shitter. Because I support Trump and being conservative, I haven't seen my grandkids in over 3 years. Younger son still believes in America.

  2. The problem with stupidity is there is no cure. And the only effective remedy is a good funeral.

  3. I once wanted to believe the destruction was a foil-hat theory. It isn't and the best cure is a reality check; many will not survive it.

  5. “Stupidity cannot be cured. Stupidity is the only universal capital crime; the sentence is death. There is no appeal, and execution is carried out automatically and without pity.”

  6. He made some good points on some things but not Lincoln. Lincoln was our first dictator. He wanted to tax the crap out of southern cotton exports and that's what started the civil war. Lincoln was a very cruel inhumane person. He ordered the Union soldiers to kill all the live stock and destroy all the food crops in the south. The people in the south nearly starved to death. The only thing left for southerners to eat was the live stock feed after the war was over. Lincoln is responsible for the deaths of more Americans than any President in history.

    1. Thank you for that accurate but unpopular assessment; the hagiographies of Lincoln do not mesh with facts.
