You know Dudette, with the current right wing majority on the U.S. Supreme Court, we may be headed back to the era when the majority of white men in black robes in the U.S. Supreme Court legally condoned the patently false idea of “SEPARATE BUT EQUAL.” Any sane and honest person, with a minimum knowledge of U. S. history, knows that the Court”s 1896 pronouncement about “SEPARATE BUT EQUAL” was pure fiction!
They rang 911 – this is how the 1% use and abuse emergency services. If I rang 911 (well 000 in my world) to complain about a truck being too early – I would be arrested for wasting police time. This is beyond a joke – I hope someone empties garbage all over their lawns.
Please forgive my ‘soap box’ TOD, but ever since reading Jim Wright’s essay (late last night) I’ve been motivated to find as simple a message as possible regarding what must change, fundamentally, in America’s consideration of ever going to war.
Perhaps I’m wrong, but I think the bottom line is, America NEVER goes to war again unless ALL Americans must serve.
ALL.
NO EXCUSES ALLOWED.
ALL.
If you are 18 or older – i.e., eligible to vote – your butt is on the line no matter who your daddy or mommy are ….
Dear #PBO
I agree with Gen Butler & Eisenhower re: war & MIC
SOLUTION: America ONLY goes to war when EVERY AMERICAN must serve

One of the funniest to me was “a poorly written letter.” Ha ha ha. President Obama can get those fools every time, by even the least-common-denominator example. He’s a master at it.
I find it interesting that even the cartoonist forget/omit to highlight McConnell when mentioning the #47 letter signatories. Whatever happens in the Dem sector, no matter how far down the administrative ladder, PBO’s name gets dragged into it. Yet McConnell actively signed this infamous letter and I haven’t seen too many articles/pundits lampooning *his* involvement. As a senior politician, leader of the party in question, in a way the boss of the letter-writer, Mitch has not been called to account vis-a-vis his lack of leadership in this manner. This omission once again underlines how messed up both the MSM and the political system are. Repulican leaders are not held to any standards of professionalism, patriotism or leadership. I don’t know if it has struck any of you that BOTH Republican Congress leaders have taken a swipe at the country within the last month, then both have been allowed to step back as into business as usual without any repercussions.
Oh, don’t worry, just watch the 3rd emmessem spin it as how mcturtle was brilliant in putting his teabagging caucus (as if they are any different from the ‘sane’ rethugs) into a corner.. Damage to country? Who gives a fuck about that.
That’s just it though; BOTH caucuses/caucus/cauci are in the corner and neither is in the corner *for* the country. Why isn’t MSM talking about that with greater emphasis on the fact that they, together, have shifted allegiance from Americans? /dejectedly/ Yea, I know I’m asking the wrong person.
TNMT girl I am a family mediator in the state of Washington done 100s of parenting plans for military divorces. I do not know your state law but can give you some advice on what to look for in an attorney or mediator. or resources to look for. ask chips for my email address. I am mostly a long time lurker but this was the first week I was completely off line. If you still need help, I would be a willing resource.
If you haven’t read http://www.stonekettle.com/2015/03/the-second-coming-of-richard-millhouse.html please do …. it’ll give you a glimpse at how someone who lived through every single stinking minute of 1968 and beyond might feel about what MIC kleptocrats and their minions are trying to do to humanity, in the name of ‘American Exceptionalism,’ yet again …..
I think the line at 1:06 has a slight error (at least to my ear). Should be “Hey everybody in the neighborhood, The Dude is on duty, better hear me good…”

Chips, otter 44 did a comment to me on this thread. Informs me that she/he (??) has done 100s of cases for military divorces, family issues, etc. in WA state. Is willing to assist, help, advise me/us, but we need to be able to communicate by email. Said to ask you for email. Can you please send me that?! Thank you kindly!!!
Thank you, kind sir. 🙂 Thanks for your support and well wishes. btw, soon as I saw the address, I thought “Oh yes, that’s it.” My mind isn’t functioning too well. Focused on one thing. Sigh………..

read this and still can’t believe how racist this country is.
… but, but, but SCOTUS says racism is over.

Here you guys are playing the race card again. There is no racism, we were all getting along just fine till Obama came along.
They rang 911 – this is how the 1% use and abuse emergency services. If I rang 911 (well 000 in my world) to complain about a truck being too early – I would be arrested for wasting police time. This is beyond a joke – I hope someone empties garbage all over their lawns.
Oh my, LP, we have a ‘tie’ between MP and amk to resolve!! 🙂
Thank you for the excellent selection of ‘toons’ …..
First one up on the thread is FURST!!!! See Above… well, okay, the screen was doing a jiggy.. but nonetheless…. have to settle for twins..

List of Quincy’s awards and honors
