Will they give their lives in defense of him? Murder others who try to get near him? What is the wildest scenario you can envision and what are the odds it will come true? You know how intensely passionate about him his supporters are, right? How far are they willing to go to keep him right where he is for however long he wants to be there? So it's against the law? So what? He is the law. Remember? He is above any law that thwarts him and can ignore any law that suits him and rescind all laws if he wishes to do so. Can't he do whatever he wants to do whenever he wants to do it for however long it interests him before he gets bored and moves on to the new toy? less

Isn't politics a profit center and once you enter you leave much much much much much much much better off? Why else would it be filled with so many inept ones who have so little to offer and so much to gain? It isn't what they have to give but what they expect to get that drives them and who can blame them? It is the way of the world. It is what opportunists and profiteers do. They just want their cut of it. Whatever it takes is what they do. Politics circa 2017. SIGH less

Thousands of them worldwide protected by distance engaging in war and going home at night to their families. Sounds ideal. Like a Norman Rockwell painting.That allusion means nothing to youngsters. Only to us oldtimers! :)

How often is that true?What makes people really think they are so special others will change their spots because of that specialness? Is it an inborn thing or developed by being told how wondrous fair we are by our parents so we get a distorted view of what reality is? America believes we are special and will overcome anything other countries could not. Well maybe we are, may be we aren't but I sure don't want to test it. Do you? less

As for the sea the Marianas Trench alone is a great mystery. Then you have all that lives below...flora and fauna and other things we do not know exist because they haven't been discovered yet. What is there on earth worth discovering that can possibly compete? We've given it many chances and still it cannot, does not, will not make sense. Perhaps it never was meant to. less

Nowadays machines do everything for you. I had homemade peach ice cream once upon a time very long ago. The best peach ice cream I ever tasted! If you make ice cream at home do you have a signature flavor that your family/friends request often? If so what is it?

You need to get out and about with others to make being a racist really exciting! Some things are best kept private though. Do you have examples of other things done out in the open that makes them so much better than if they were done out of sight? Like what?

Dour. Sour. Purists. Where are the funny folks? The ones who look for the silver lining and see something funny therein? Why do they only share what no one wants? Like a teacher standing over you with a ruler ready to strike your hand if you get out of line or are impertinent or make fun of the absurd. Did they all go to Catholic Schools and learn from Nuns how to keep people on the straight and narrow? I dunno. Some folks seem to be grim 24/7. Are you grim a lot? What about?

What kind of dictionary to you have and do you use it often?

They were not the likers to begin with but they just don't have any fight in them at all so they quietly accept and sometime defend the status quo no matter low it goes. Their opposites gear up and fight harder and louder and oftener and form groups and get stronger. The original likers/supporters never have a problem deciding. They embrace whatever and enable more of it. They go the way the wind blows them. We call them tumbleweeds. Which way do you go? Why? less
