Well, it sure as hell took her long enough! Next time, Kim, just slip the Lithium in his food or drink.

Why does this not surprise me at all? Ugh! Thanks, DD and Vee, for catching me up!

Did I miss something (again)? Who is "they," and what did they attempt to do to my baby daddy, Robert Mueller? As Ralph Furley would say, "DAMN!!".

Could someone explain to me a little more clearly what this means? For example: Mama Khan, an African-American, was born on U.S. soil. However, Papa Khan, a native of Georgetown, British Guyana, never obtained U.S. citizenship. (He came to this country forty-six years ago this month, on a visa, but he had let that visa expire by the time he and Mama Khan married.) Does this mean I'm in danger, since one of my parents was a non-citizen at the time of my birth? We Have. To Vote. That's all there is to it.

Frankly, I'd have been surprised if Bubbles hadn't tapped someone like "Rabbi" Jacobs to offer that prayer. In his eyes, the shooting wouldn't have happened if they had loved them some Jesus. You know I was being hyperbolic, right? I'm not REALLY going to pull a Charles Whitman (although, given what occurred this past weekend at the synagogue, I can understand your concern). Nevertheless, Julia, you're right -- and I'm doing just that. I thought I could handle the pro-Trump ones among my friends on FB -- many of whom, by the way, are former classmates -- but it's just incredible to see how otherwise rational human beings have become so adept at rationalizing and justifying the most heinous [!@#$%^&*]. Again, everyone, rest assured I will not be committing any acts of violence anytime soon. I'll leave that to my government and the troops who have been deployed at the border.

Nor should you be. Even if your grandparents weren't there, it's still terrifying to think about. My father, a systems technician at AT&T, was scheduled to work at the Murrah Building on the day Timothy McVeigh ripped a hole through it, and through the OKC community as a whole; killing 168 people, including innocent babies whose parents had dropped them off at the daycare, believing April 19, 1995 would be a day like any other. And even though Papa Khan would die, unexpectedly, in 2010, I still become numb at the thought that we COULD have lost him much, much sooner. (Thank God he had decided that April morning to stop at McDonald's and have a cup for coffee before showing up for work.) When people who are SUPPOSED to be my FB friends fear the coming migrant "invasion," because, "EEK! LOOK OUT! THEY MIGHT HAVE DISEASES!," it's all I can do not to climb aboard the nearest clock tower with a high-powered rifle and hurt some people. ("They're not following the rules! They're coming here to hurt us!" Trust me, the damage they could do to us doesn't compare to the damage we're doing to ourselves.) I'm serious. I'm this [!@#$%^&*] close to losing it over others' insane reactions to the migrants. I think that's the story that affects me the most deeply. Here we had someone who survived perhaps the greatest atrocity committed in modern times -- someone who, no doubt, was witnessing what had been unfolding since the election and wondering if it all was happening again -- and how does he die? At the hands of a white supremacist. As one of my fellow members of the Philolexian Society would say, "there's an irony in there...somewhere." Forget the needle, I want the s.o.b. who killed these people to get the gas chamber. His delusional ass deserves nothing less. The GOP is good at selling snake oil to the masses, I'll grant 'em that!

No more preposterous than Rachel Dolezal believing she's black. It's just like the end of the episode of "The Jeffersons" called "Sorry, Wrong Meeting." When the white supremacist (played by James Karen, who passed away last week) who was trying to get the Jeffersons and other "undesirables" evicted from their building learned that it was George who had performed CPR on him and saved his life after suffering a heart attack, he told his son, "You should've let me die." What George said after hearing that remains just as true today: they ain't never gonna change.

But that's always their response to tragedies such as these, isn't it? "Hey, this could all have been avoided, if more people had more guns!" Seriously, white men would LOVE it if this country were more like a rerun of "Gunsmoke" or "The Rifleman."

That's probably because, it does no good to challenge a pathological liar who would lie even when confronted with the truth. I mean, you could TRY...but you are gonna get nowhere. Trust me.

The facts, I am sorry to say, speak for themselves: for eight years, we had Barack Obama making all the right arguments, and what was the response? A Congress who was openly hostile and treasonous; and a constituency filled with idiots who STILL believe he's a Kenyan-born Muslim. There are days when I believe there should never be another non-Caucasian president, or another candidate who isn't white, Christian and male. We just don't deserve to be so progressive.

I'll say this much: if the bomb threats are orchestrated efforts to swing votes to the left before Election Day -- which I doubt very highly -- then the left has figured out that when it comes to the GOP, taking the high road is taking the road to nowhere.
