Theresa May - UK PM - doesn't do 'Sport'
She was told that her LEGS were a selling point for PR.... hence a lot of "Leg Shots" .... short dresses etc before the Brexit talks started. Trump's belly and treble chins do not support ANY Sport. Not even a 'posed' pic like from from Dwight to Obama via JFK and both Bushes....could portray him as "FIT" Like Mussolini, his WH pics are from below waist-level, hands raised ....'lifts breasts'....

I don't mind the resurgence of the left at all, but am just letting the right leaning VEF members know that Congresswoman Lee and Kamala Harris will become much more prominent going forward and y'all will soon be looking at Nancy Pelosi as the progressive moderate she is. Is this a good time to mention that I have a very hard time understanding how red state voters can continually elect people that screw them over financially? Then we have the campaign propaganda, lies, misogynistic, and racist rhetoric parroted out to us. I knew when Reagan was elected that a generation would grow up listening to economic, political, and social nonsense presented as truth. I understand how pernicious ideology instilled in childhood can be. Exploring my spiritual life and seeking to improve my contact with the Divine Presence are major concerns. But I constantly butt my head against the conceptual framework instilled by years of reciting the Baltimore Catechism. It is hard to keep my tongue while the dupes continue to prattle as their lives and communities collapse around them. In the last couple of years I have reluctantly begun to accept that these people really are that stupid. Really, folks do you think it is any accident that crack cocaine and opioids flooded our society as our schools were trashed and your jobs automated out of existence? Do you really believe the addicts caused it all? Who got richer while all this happened? Y'all are making me think that Midwestern white folk are nothing but a bunch of lazy, beer swilling hillbillies and trailer trash. |

wWell, when you got one side that is against you and the other side that won't fight for you because they have been bought off like a cop on the take what do you do?

What made Trump possible was the exhaustion of that kind of Republican. It parallels the exhaustion of the mainline Protestant churches . . . there's no more WASP establishment that sees itself as the winners in the status quo, rather there's an aging and pissed off group of Assemblies of God/Baptists etc that see themselves as the losers, not the winners. For our Brit friends, this tension within Protestantism would be familiar; the C of E establishment vs various malcontents (many of whom they encouraged to take their crankiness to the New World). |

Even Ireland, previously the most religious country in Europe has now progressed and given up all this nonsense. You can be the least credible Christian on the planet - Trump but if you pretend to go along with it the Christians will still vote for you. Last edited by vinceprince; July 2nd, 2018 at 08:29 AM.. |

As Alistair Campbell told Tony Blair "We don't do God"...

That is a great line.
Its been an interesting time for God in the US. The Rs used to go on about God, Jesus and morality ("the Moral Majority"), you'd have thought that Trump would have put a hole in that balloon, but no. Together with nuts in Israel, they've decided that Trump is the Second Coming -- not of Jesus, but of Cyrus the Great. OK, he was Persian, but these folks aren't bright enough to recognize that "Persian" = "Iran". And the "biblical" idea is that, despite being a tyrant, he did God's work. Its a nice bit of double talking you'll have to agree Quote:

Really, the Obama presidency should have featured more of us marching in the streets. He did the best he could, and did get a little help for some folks medically. But Wall Street bankrolled him, so we never got the bankers thrown in jail. The Republicans are now gutting the few protections Elizabeth Warren shamed the party into providing American consumers being raped by the credit card companies. Obama was always a moderate. There was no way he was going to back off on the military adventurism. So he he played right into the hands of the military-industrial complex and the police state that began to grow with 9/11. In fact. he actively helped grow it. The Obama administration started prosecuting journalists to track down whistle blowers and intimidate future dissenters. Rather than seriously address rationalizing our immigration policy, Obama ramped up deportations and harassment of the Hispanic neighborhoods. What I am seeing from the Democrats and Republicans has me feeling suicidal. But then I thought, "Why should I kill myself because of these scum suckers. Why not hang around and be the most obnoxious asshole senior citizen I can be. Fuck 'em" So, no more Mr. Nice Guy. |

I happened to.be wandering through downtown Portland last weekend and followed some noise to a standoff between "Patriot Prayer" and antifa counter protesters
Patriot Prayer was doing it's impression of Duck Dynasty meets Nordlinger from Animal Hiuse, blaring godawful country/rock music (Nickelback are Canadians, morons) and some doing the Proud Boys preppy asshole thing. But not to fear, antifa were on the March, too cool for.the Revolution in their battle kilts. Yeah dudes in black kilts and ski masks, and their fat girlfriends. Fuck me. I'm watching this trying to decide which of these people I hate more, and was pleasantly surprised when the cops blasted them all with pepper and crowd control munitions |
