They just keep hitting it, it's uncanny. The losing ticket keeps popping up and they just keep doubling down. I wonder if it's the by-product of a "lottery" culture. It could be. The corruption, inherent in a state sponsored lottery, glares back at you, shining with un-natural super colors at every convenience store check-out.

Are now answering surveys that report upwards of 77% think NATO should intervene militarily in Ukraine.

Are they signing up at their local recruitment offices? Are the idiots who won’t wear a mask going to fight?

Give me a break.

is vastly different to what it means for others. The difference should be embarrassing for them but when we see adults throwing themselves to the ground and having a meltdown because of a mask, then it's obvious that they have no shame.

The overgrown adolescents who threw temper tantrums because of masks never once voiced concerns over their responsibilities but rather what they considered of their rights. The men in the Ukraine are showing what manhood is as well as the "freedum" screechers are showing what it is not.

We have a perfect example of REAL leadership to witness, study, and learn from. Those who are genuinely fighting for their freedom against the Russians over there, and the pansy-assed “freedumb” screechers over here.

(Btw - I LOVE your term “freedumb screechers”, Mr. Steve! (Begging your indulgence, I just added the “b”).

One is genuinely heroic. The other is a piss ant. Gee - anybody know which is which?

I’d guess I know what the piss ant contingent would say.

SNL skit tonight (group at restaurant discussing masking) was confusing, but suggested CDC is saying masking isn't helpful. WTF?
