Agree.

I know one thing that turned me off to Bernie was the attitude that voter suppression against AA communities was not a "real" issue. SCOTUS' decision to strip away provisions of the Civil Rights Acts was a clear sign that it was.

No, what I meant was, the incident with the two men posing as Communists (to make a donation to a Democratic candidate) might look like an incident of little (or no) significance, but so did the break-in at DNC headquarters back in '72, before Bob Woodward (according to the movie) decided there was something more.

That incident seems strange now...but wait 'til it becomes the next Watergate.

Does anyone know what happened to longtime OLTL (and DOCTORS and AW) scribe Lanie Bertram?

We should be used to that by now, though. After all, Trump is still president.

Well, I gave up trying to watch the clip w/ Don Lemon's reaction from "CNN Tonight." Apparently, (Kan)Ye is just too damn out there for my poor iMac.

Well, as Prince once said, take me with u. I just haven't the strength to deal with this. Ya know? Between my B**** K******** hangover and the run-up to midterms, it's all I can do to hang on until "Countdown to Christmas" on the Hallmark Channel. (Kan)Ye, for your sake, I hope you know what you're doing. And if you don't? Then get help.

The only thing that's real about Donald J. Trump is his ignorance.

That is some good news...but I'm taking nothing for granted, lol.

"LOCK! HER! UP! LOCK! HER! UP!" Seriously, I am soooooo over the Trump supporters' fetish for women and minorities in cages. But, let's say that it does come down in 2020 to him and Trump. What do I do? Do I stay home? I did that last election. So did a lot of other people. That's one reason why we're in the mess that we're in. Do I vote third party? I think that's another reason why Trump sits in the Oval Office today. Too many Susan Sarandons felt Hillary would be just as bad as Trump, if not worse, and still do. Plus, if I'm being perfect and frank, I think voting third party is essentially throwing away your vote. I hear what you're saying about Bloomberg, and I totally agree. But I know I wouldn't want another four years of Trump either. So, again, what do I do?

IKR? The man is out of office, people! Stop blaming him for [!@#$%^&*] and leave him and his family the hell alone! There are times when I wish we never have another non-Caucasian president. Because, honestly, what brutha (or sistah) should subject themselves to such abuse? You have to really, REALLY love this country to want to run after seeing how the Obamas continue to be treated. Not that I believe it'll happen, too, but I'd really love to see Wheeler given the Scott Pruitt treatment for liking that photo. Everything else that goes on at Trump House becomes a front-page scandal, why shouldn't this be one, too? That jackass.

IA. I hate to say it, too, but I actually think someone who, in the past, might have been labelled as "too establishment" or too much of a Washington insider will end up looking ideal after Trump. ("Back to Basics"? "Business as usual"? Sounds good to me!) So, yeah, Joe Lieberman, come on down, lol. The truth is, if we try for another Obama on the heels of Trump, this nation will be divided more than ever, as impossible as that seems at the moment. We could very well end up having another civil war or another situation that results in the creation of two Americas. Yeah, I tend to agree there, too. For me, it's not looking good. Nevertheless, I'm voting Democrat no matter who ends up being the nominee, just because I don't believe I'll ever be able to trust the GOP again. It's going to take them at least a generation, and a ton of the "old guard" dying out, before some (reasonably more) sensible folks who won't cater to the most craven of us reclaim the party for the better.

I'm afraid so. I've resigned myself to the fact that I'll probably never see another Obama, or even another Hillary Clinton, in my lifetime. We might dig ourselves out of the hole that Trump has put us in...someday...eventually. But I think we'll be too wrapped up in restoring civility and normalcy and stability, both to the WH and to this nation, to entertain another young, youthful, energetic contender with big ideas for a LONG time. IOW, it's going to be up to our kids to find the next Obama. We've just got too much mess to clean up to think about going down that road again.

I could see Rose joining the other fembots on "Outnumbered."

I hope so, too, Cat. I hope "regular" women and men are able to take the movement back from the celebs who tried to co-opt it. I don't deny the fact that sexual abuse runs rampant throughout the film and TV industries. However, the right and far-right is always so quick to dismiss anything that has anything at all to do with celebrities, and I'm worried their attempts to do the same w/ this movement will end with people turning against #MeToo for good.

Well, at least we're not talking about B**** K******** anymore!

No, he's not a #HimToo supporter. However, he is clearly a hipster. Ergo, he's still trash. (Sorry, folks, I just call 'em as I see 'em.)

They threw a coat hanger at him? Oh, I get it: they were just engaging in a little "Mommie Dearest" role-play.

The same people who remain convinced that the Earth is flat, that Jesus was white, and that Obama is a Muslim who was born in Kenya.

It's like a bad episode of "McHale's Navy." (What am I saying? ALL episodes of "McHale's Navy" were bad.)

I think so. I've seen it time and time again: SCOTUS is not there to make the laws, or to legislate opinions. SCOTUS is there strictly to determine the constitutionality of the cases brought before them. Ugh. Right now, Mama Khan is in another room, listening to Kav's big speech on the WH lawn. Isn't it appropriate how the Senate forced him on us like he forced himself on those women (allegedly)? Of course, the difference between Kav and the U.S. Senate, is that the U.S. Senate actually finished the job.

I can't believe it either.

Lemme guess: you're not an "Andy Griffith Show" fan.

Democrats don't want to be known strictly as "the anti-Trump party." But, I say, ride that pony for all it's worth, lol. If it's good enough for me, then it's gotta be good enough for a lot of others, too.
