I'm collecting from SS Ponzi and I figure if the US went to war with itself the currency wouldn't be worth spit and neither will anything connected to it (401k, IRA, etc.). Oh wait, even if the US doesn't go to war with itself the currency isn't going to be worth spit and neither will anything connected to it. Hunker down Gulchers, it's going to be a rough ride.

I'm not sure there's a more obvious sign of their total stupidity and naiveté than "Global cooling...No? how about global warming. No? We'll call it 'Climate Change' so it covers everything! Brilliant!"

Yeah, he always had cool stuff.

You mean all the snow I'm getting here in the winter (like every other winter) in western NY ISN'T climate change???!!! LMAO! I'm wondering if "they" will switch back to global cooling like back in the '70s.

Heard at the Bronco's game the snow was flying. A little further south a broom worked on the sidewalk and drive.

I agree that it would take splitting many states and many people would be left
residing in a state where they intensely disagree with the government and
their employment makes it financially difficult to make a move elsewhere.
Many left-biased cities would be islands surrounded by a sea of right-leaning areas.

As always so many smile and giggles on this day, thank you.

Nurse Rachet, well, in the 80's and 90's was financial controller, office manager, HR all around you have a request, issue, whatever those were the days, I was your person to be mean to in the construction company. One short dude who would get boxes instead of what he really needed to do his job; you get the idea right? His name for me, you got it was Nurse Rachet!! I lasted longer than him at the company!

Of course, the biggest problem is that central government will go to war and
murder millions to prevent anyone leaving their control/enslavement.
Secondly, most people (aka most women and brainwashed males) do not value
freedom as much as safety. They irrationally ignore that the safety is
only achieved by government mafia that will act with force against anyone
who disagrees with their enslavement by government and its corrupt corporatocracy.
Thirdly, millions on social security can't afford any split that eliminates their
retirement pay addiction.
I don't see any peaceful split in our future.

Yeah - they probably have it all ready to go, and will take it to the Senate the first day after swearing in - IFF they win....

Me too.

Thanks, OUC. You've given me a visual that makes me smile from ear to ear; with the Bill/Shrillary meme, all I could see is Hillary being perp-walked. It's been a rough couple of days (DUE TO MOTHER NATURE, NOT CLIMATE CHANGE), and that meme was a welcome relief.

I'm repelled by that creepzoid pretty much the same way. How even Democrats can actually vote for that thing makes me wonder if he has some satanic hold over them..
While thinking about how to reply here, it occurred to me his face would be a perfect match should he wear the Imperial Army uniform of a Star Wars villain, especially with that odd gray cap they wear.

It's going to be a rough ride, IMO. I don't see a geographic solution by state as the two sides are interspersed. The problem is densely populated cities like NYC drive their states and the rest of the population is stuck with it. Take out NYC and NYS becomes more conservative.

Wonderful set this week, OUC! That list of senators on the Venezuelan take list is 34% of the senate. It makes you wonder how many would be on the Chinese take list. I was very surprised to see Grassley and Paul on it! Let's see if the Clintons (either of them) get a perp walk - I won't hold my breath. Let's see how many Somalis get deported.

A commie win in the midterms would be a disaster! I expect massive cheating attempts.

I always thought Bloomy was just plain creepy. Every time I saw him speaking on TV I had to quickly click away before I hurled because of the cognitive dissonance.

Who is John Galt?

We have to hope and pray that the Republicans keep the House next fall. Otherwise it will probably just be one impeachment after another and the administration will be unable to get much done.

Two days ago I watched a pitch for a brand new supplement that removes plastic from the brain. I watched because the spokesman couldn't actually lie, could he? It took seconds before the answer was "yes, he could". The spokesman? Dr. Neurosurgeon. I won't type his name until I find out if the pitch was real or AI. I was appalled that he would endorse such a farce.

He always demands far more than he really wants, and in the end gets exactly what he wants and a little bit more. Politicians will never get it. Good set, Carl :)

These scum that took cartel money are flat out traitors. I have been patient, waiting to see what the first year of President Trump's term would bring. My patience is being rewarded and these beautiful memes tell the story. The scum are throwing everything they have into this fray and exposing themselves to the world in spite of their cronies in the media. When the hammer starts falling in earnest, take them out as the traitors they are, in their own words!

Funny bunch, ouc. Several missing posts, DOB and Nancy for two. Of course I am way behind my reading, so may have missed a bit.

The politician who disgusts me the most--yeah, he would take Maduro kickbacks too--is Democrat Richard Blumenthal, who years back got a pass from Connecticut voters for lying about serving in Vietnam.
You see, he said he only "misspoke" when he tried to bag votes when he told that whopper.
What he did was enlist in the Marine Corps Reserve which "virtually guaranteed" he would not go to Nam.
Me dino was in the Marines. Did I go to Nam? Big time nope and never said I did. Why? I have respect for myself and even more for Marines placed in that awful position.
Marines actually drafted me in '69. Thought I was gonna die for what I correctly believed--as it all turned out--would be for nothing.
Marines were recruiting all the gung ho "grunts" they needed but were hurting for those who could handle being admin clerks and supply clerks. As a supply clerk at air base Cherry Point, North Carolina, I made corporal within my draftee two-year sentence "under meritorious conditions."
I can brag about that because it is true. Even kept the citation that proves it. Blooperthal, what for only being misspoken have you got?
What really turns my stomach about that hypocrite Blumenthal is how many times over the years I've seen him bray into a microphone to impugn the character of some Republican about this, that or some other thing.
Hey, Blumenpuke, from one Marine to another, you're filthy slime who disgusts me to the core. Perhaps also to the Corps?

Just filling in the nooks and crannies

I agree. I loved his work. Farcical but funny because it was based in truth. I once had an a-hole manager tell me that I needed his permission to interview with another organization for a position. I laughed out loud. Right out of Dilbert.
