^Such seats are allegedly too hot to be nice. Nevertheless, anyone can start a Rot in Hell thread. I've planned to do so when it's George Soros's turn, unless someone else will start such a thread before me or I'll pass away first.

Since we don't have a rest in Hell thread. https://www.cnn.com/2019/08/23/politics/david-koch-dead/index.html I hope that he gets a nice hot seat in the evil leader section of Hell.

Deadly ridiculous indeed.
Good thing we buy less and less (close to nothing for la belle province) from them and maybe another reason why they're so f**king upset. A very old friend of mine is quite angry at me nowadays because I don't buy his sh*tty computer equipment anymore: I decided to buy elsewhere and he simply didn't take it, and knowing what kind of guy he his, I'll probably pay for this treason one day or the other.

The illiberal Saudi Arabia is a horrible theocracy. I'm actually rather proud to be Canadian right now. And to the Saudis who say "mind your own business," I say maybe you should stop minding people who criticise your kingdom and your orthodoxy, and stop trying to export your values overseas which are antithetical to the enlightenment values of a secular liberal democracy.
 https://nationalpost.com/news/world/pro-government-saudi-twitter-account-posts-image-of-plane-flying-towards-toronto-skyline This Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's Twitter account is interesting reading: https://twitter.com/KSAmofaEN I'd like to see a formal debate between a Saudi Arabian and a Canadian state official. One reason why I wanted an electric car was so that I don't support such oil rich states (that said, I got a Honda Civic). Without oil, I don't believe that that state would survive. |

hahah.. I like that.. Trumpistan... so up in the news today as you wake up...on the theme of ideological bankruptcy...oh that is not surprising... first Kansas.. then West Virginia.. now Oklahoma... and should anyone be surprised ... of course not.... for the common thread.. is deep red and sh*tting out ideology that simply DOES NOT WORK.. yet people continue to vote for those that sell it. Amazing.. one just wants to scream.. . THINK before you vote. One might but one realizes.. hey they voted for the f**kers.. you get what you deserve.

Ok,so McMaster got fired too? Gets hard to keep track with The Apprentice in full flow. My cousin sis, an American citizen,left for India last Tuesday. By the time she landed in India, Tillerson had been fired and she didn't know about it but I did.
 It's like the biz news channels say, "What moved the markets while you were sleeping". What changed in Trumpistan while you were offline.

I suppose he wants to hold that ..errr.. trump card to use closer to the 2020 election. Might be the only chance he has to win reelection. The Bush Light principal.... we have never voted out a sitting President in wartime.. and don't think he doesn't know that.

Food for thought: On Monday March, 12th Secretary of State Rex Tillerson released a state document condemning Russia for their chemical attack on British soil. On Tuesday March 13th, he was fired by Trump. On March 15th, National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster delivered a blistering speech condemning both the Russian chemical attack in Britain, and also the Russian support of the Syrian use of chemical weapons against its own people. He demanded serious punishment for these "atrocities". In less than a week he was fired. Meanwhile, Trump called Putin to congratulate him on his farcical Russian election. Trump did not mention the British chemical attack or atrocities in Syria. Trump congratulated Putin even though his security advisers warned him no to. Trump's two highest advisers are fired after speaking out on Russia, and Trump in turn congratulates Putin for winning a fixed election. Meanwhile, Trump selected Right-Wing tinfoil hat nut-bag John Bolton to replace General McMaster. Bolton advocates nuclear war against North Korea and Iran. Bolton has already demanded preemptive strikes against both countries. Mike Pompeo, who replaced Tillerson, has also advocated direct attacks on North Korea and Iran. Any bets on Trump starting a war in order to end the Mueller Investigation? I wouldn't put it past the bloated buffoon. |

too funny.. and not a day later McMaster gets axed. A coincidence? Hardly I suppose they found who leaked that to the Post. Only a select few had knowledge of the briefing material the jackass got... One less responsible adult in the White House now.. lovely.. replaced with *spits beer on wall* John Bolton. lovely...

the f**kers that voted for him did away from those.. numero uno in pantheon of check and balances is the electorate itself.
and that presupposes... they cast informed and educated votes. well again.. give the founding fathers credit... they knew the American public was capable of failing.. which is why they put in the Electoral college to prevent disasters like 2016 when the American public seemed to think a racist, misogynist, completely unqualified, mentally questionable, ethically laughable, and failed business leader should be President. unfortunately it took 200+ years for the American public to prove the fears of the founding fathers right and by the time they had.. the electoral college had become mrrely just a rubber stamp.. not a check and balance on ignorance and stupidity as intended hah

Trickle-down economics works.
It's a well known fact that Robin Hood was a knob-head who took from the rich and gave to the poor, just as they were about to do that themselves. What a wally! |

America, my neighbors, I love you, but half of you seem insane, and you are headed for civil war or out-and-out fascism. Driven by money, superstition, ignorance, dysfunction, fear, and hate, you are racing for a pit.
I don't know how you unite and restore the rule of reason, decency, and the good people, but you must.  Edited by Peter - December 20 2017 at 11:05 |

Every day or so, it strikes me just how surreal and scary it is that the psychopathic, traitorous, compulsively lying, sexually predatory, fascist, racist, backward, boorish, buffoonish, un-read, ill educated, vulgar, spoiled, autocratic, egotistical, cynical, manipulative, planet-raping, obscene, loathsome, corrupt, fat, ugly, INSANE Donald Trump is president of the USA. It seems like a bad, very dark joke written a decade ago come to life!
He REALLY needs to go--last year!  Poor America! Poor EARTH! Make it stop! Uneducated people should not vote, it seems....    Edited by Peter - December 20 2017 at 11:11 |

I normally don't post in this thread, but as a former tax accountant I feel compelled to say this new tax bill is fiscally irresponsible and a disgusting sham. Besides the fact that those who truly benefit will be the 1% (especially those that speculate real estate - big surprise there) the impending damage to the deficit is mind boggling. I hate dems and repubs equally and it seems neither side of the aisle cares about the debt.
When the dems are in power, they pile on the deficit to support their over-reaching social programs. When the repubs are in power, they pile on the deficit with their tax breaks and corporate welfare. Someday the holders of all those debts will come home to roost with their hands out and we simply won't have the money to pay them - things will get quite ugly for this country when it's debtors take possession. But not to worry, it won't be a problem for our elected lawmakers who vote for this nonsense...they and their families will all be safe and sound with their millions, fortified mansions, gov't pensions & lifetime health insurance. Democracy? No. Republic? No. Plutocracy? That's us alright Edited by The.Crimson.King - December 20 2017 at 08:52 |

It can always be undone. It is sad though. We never really make much progress. Every time Democrats regain control, they have to spend all their time fixing the mess the Republicans make. Then the rich people get scared and throw all their money into advertising (i.e. propaganda and conspiracy theories) and the dumb segments of the population put the Republicans back in control. The cycle never seems to end. The only thing different this time around was that Putin got involved to put an ass in charge. It seems the country is being run by Fox & Friends and/or Moscow. Recently Putin had some sort of 4+ hour press conference in which he had disparaging remarks about the FBI. The next day Trump does the same thing.
