Say Will Rogers versus Adolf Hitler? Or Dick van Dyke versus any despot dictator leader? Does thinking good thoughts about someone being pleasure to you and make you smile and feel sublime and divine or do you never think about things like that cuz you think they are very silly and a waste of your time?

It all depended on the story line he was working on. If the story line arc ended the "characters" disappeared into an oblivion somewhere. I think the cartoon characters became aware of the power the cartoonist had over them. Imagine knowing whom your creator is and that he/she could uncreate you by simply not drawing you?

You just think you do? Would you rather know or not know if it were true? Does knowing your responses thoughts everythings are robotic reactions too hard to take or comforting because if you can't choose how can you be responsible/accountable/blamable for anything?

Dare they disobey his command to declare war on the portion of the American people who refuse to support him? Is there anything in the Constitution that would prohibit that and even if there were he has already proven tht he is above the law, above the Constitution, an institution unto himself. If the military refused an order would that mean insurrection revolution? Inquiring minds wanna know since the big cheese is capable of anything we can opine about and imagine. less

Want him to order the military to use "lethal force" against the "we the people" who do not support him? Would that be the very best use of the small and closing window of time he has left? Eliminate all all opposition once and for all! That way the only folks left are folks like you who adoringly support defend admire worship him. Now that would be heaven for you. UTOPIA! So what's he waiting for? Is he up to it? Will he dare do it? It is what he would most like to do. But then he would have no one to attack or berate or fight or insult? Oh my gosh! How could he survive a world like that? Maybe he would be forced to attack you, his adoring supporters. I dunno. It's kinda hard to conceive of how he will fill the long hours each day with no one to attack, insult, destroy. less

Everyone says so. I will never lie to you. We'll see what happens. We're looking into that. In a certain period of time. Soon. What wondrous things are in our future futurely? Will what happens match or exceed your hopes or fears? Whatcha think m'dears!

We gullible fools think that is what should be but who sez so? Power is what rules. Those who are greedy enough to grab it and run with it deserve it. Right? So they pillage and rape and destroy and get richer and richer and richer? That is the way of the world. All the despot dictators are richer than Midas! Go for the gold. Take what you can. "The world is a banquet and most poor bas**rds are starving to death". Well that comes from Auntie Mame probably not verbatim but you get the drift. She is/was/will always be a great old dame who knew how to live life! It has absolutely nothing to do with what preceded it. I just felt like tossing it in the mix. :) less

I'm not responsible for what you carry around with you. YOU ARE. It's funny odd weird that some or maybe many folks keep blaming others for their own lack and weakness and warts. It makes them feel oh-so-good but it's oh so silly. Man up! Woman up! Take responsibility for what you bring to the table. If your baggage is getting heavier as you get older start dropping some of it off. Don't pick up new baggage unless you drop away some of the old and it's way way BETTER to drop off more than you take on. I'm just sayin'! less

Wasting time on sameoldsameold. A robotic production line of talking heads repeating repeating repeating repeating. Time goes by. NOTHING CHANGES. Time goes by time goes by. NOTHING CHANGES. So instead of investing our time or spending it we dishonor it and demean it and treat it as if it is of little consequence. WHY?

I know some wonderful Democrats, but it seems many want to attack anyone who doesn't agree with them, regardless of subject matter...Calm down folks... it's just a game.

“So funny to see little Adam Schitt (D-CA) talking about the fact that Acting Attorney General Matt Whitaker was not approved by the Senate, but not mentioning the fact that Bob Mueller (who is highly conflicted) was not approved by the Senate!” Trump wrote on his Twitter account on Sunday.
Schiff, who’s likely to become the House Intelligence Committee chairman, took to Twitter to fire back at Trump.
“Wow, Mr. President, that’s a go... less
