pinkpantheroz

Every time I think the assholes in the WH can’t think of anything more harmful or stupid or blatantly lying they come up with more… several times a day.
Harleigh
3 hours ago
Just thought I’d share some “Stormy Weather” lyrics to begin my night here. How are you PPO and Harleigh?
glenn

Finest kind glenn. Ad is taking hhis lady to anniversary dinner, so I’m it, apparently
pinkpantheroz

PPO–Yes that was quite satisfying to see the Shrekl go to jail!
glenn

Bubba is waiting!
pinkpantheroz

PPO–And a better “it” couldn’t be found!

PPO–Do you suppose Bubba lost any money in the stock market?
glenn

I see the WH is dialling back Desperate Don’s visit to NK! Someone woke up to Kim’s con
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
I love that Shkreli got 7 years. He is such a pretty little guy. Hope he gets aids in prison.
Harleigh
2 hours ago
Do you mean David Dennison’s visit to NK?
glenn
2 hours ago
Or, maybe you’re correct-after all, Desperate Don and David Dennison both have the same initials!
glenn
2 hours ago
Why doesn’t he send Dennis ‘ the brain’ Rodman to NK? hahahaha.
Harleigh
2 hours ago
glenn and H. He’s still worth 27 mill, but that will vanish if the IRS /RICO get at it.
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
Hey, but at least there’s “good” news this week. The cowardly congressional critters are finished with their Russian “investigation” despite none of the witnesses telling them anything.
glenn
2 hours ago
Bubba’ mom needed those pills, g!
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
great, glenn. Now Mueller can get on without all the interference
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
Yup! That diabetes thingy is rampant in Bubba’s hometown!
glenn
2 hours ago
Am I just being overly optimistic, or does it seem as though Mueller is getting close to the “inner circle”?
glenn
2 hours ago
glenn – never saw so many Sergeant Schultz impressionists in one place before.
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
PPO–LOL!
glenn
2 hours ago
I think Muellers pincer movements are tightening
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
I hope so; I’m getting tired of trumpism.
glenn
2 hours ago
ueller is closing in but more importantly in my opinion is that charges on these criminals will probably be filed in NY at the state level away from Dolt’s pardon power.
Harleigh
2 hours ago
What do you think of Fla gun vote?
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
Harleigh–Yeah, that’s a good thing.
glenn
2 hours ago
Harleigh, so right. Must be driving Drumpf crazy
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
PPO–Think the Fla gun vote is great. What do you think of the NRA suing the state because of the new law?
glenn
2 hours ago
Rick skeletor Scott will do whatever is the most detrimental. Arming school staff is so fucking dumb on every level.
Harleigh
2 hours ago
Can’t believe that a bunch of gun runners can try and bully an entire U S State. Won’t get anywhere, unless FLA caves… Uh OH
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
I must admit, I didn’t read the whole article, because I was afraid of bashing my computer, but do either of you know what the NRA is suing for?
glenn
2 hours ago
restraing of trade!
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
restraint
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
PPO–Well…it does give the repubs and skeletor scott a back door to rescind the regulations. They can say they “tried”.
glenn
2 hours ago
Their argument is so fuckin stupid, 18 YO kids not buying asault rifles will break some businesses? WTF?
Harleigh
2 hours ago
Not restraint, sorry. Moaning about teenagers being denied their constiutional right to bring an AR 15 into school and killing kids
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
PPO–so restraint of trade because they can’t sell to those under 21? How does that work? What about age restrictions on alcohol? Isn’t that the same “restraint”?
glenn
2 hours ago
Yup, glenn. But alcohol isn’t covered by the @A
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
and driving under 16…… and kids marrying kids….
Harleigh
2 hours ago
and old creeps havng sex with pre-teens
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
Harleigh–I think, technically, those aren’t “restraint of trade”; no one is selling anything, except the state selling licenses.
glenn
2 hours ago
Driver’s and marriage licenses, I mean.
glenn
2 hours ago
It won’t do much good since most of the mass shooters are older.
Harleigh
2 hours ago
PPO–what is the @A?
glenn
2 hours ago
sorry! 2nd Amendment’
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
PPO–Got it! How could I forget about the 2nd A, which gives everyone the right to own any weapon, as many weapons as you want, and absolutely no restrictions on those weapons!
glenn
2 hours ago
I mean, the 2nd A doesn’t say anything about “well regulated”, does it?
glenn
2 hours ago
Harleigh–what won’t do much good? The new age restrictions?
glenn
2 hours ago
It is SO ‘Well regulated’ that even blind people can buy a sniper rifle! Wow!
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
PPO–there are none so blind as those who cannot see!
glenn
2 hours ago
Sadly true, just like Trumpists everywhere. And they really believe Trump can outmanouever Kim? Do me a favor!
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
Ah, c’mon, PPO–trump is the best at making deals. Just look at w–hat he did with the tariffs. Announced they would be “across the board–no exceptions” then excepted Canada and Mexico. What a deal!
glenn
2 hours ago
The outcome of the meeting with Kim–if it ever occurs–will be that Kim will be able to have any nuclear weapons it wants, and will be able to aim them at CA, because “no one cares about CA”.
glenn
2 hours ago
Seems ‘Bestest lawyer in the Business Michael Cohen, personal attorney for President Donald Trump, used his Trump Organization email to arrange to have money transferred to Stormy! Dead Clever that
pinkpantheroz

Ad, Australia has just been added to exemptions!
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
Not to mention he used funds from his personal equity loan to pay the hush money.
glenn
2 hours ago
It’s me, Glenn, but glad to know Australia is now an “exceptional” country.
glenn
2 hours ago
… and then invoiced the Trump Campaign for 129, 999.99! Well hidden, wasn’t it?

Still looking for a reasonable replacement, H?
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
when I get some money ppo
Harleigh
2 hours ago
So, see, PPO, that 129, 999.99 is just another one of trump’s deals. He didn’t even pay full price for hush money!
glenn
2 hours ago
LOL glenn!
pinkpantheroz

I think the lawyer was lucky he got reimbursed at all!
pinkpantheroz

Harleigh
2 hours ago
Any bets on when the cowardly congressional critters will begin an investigation into whether campaign funds were used?
glenn
2 hours ago
Nope!
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
Maybe after November when the Dems rule!
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
Harleigh–blow jobs in the 90’s are “old news”. What about Benghazi? Or Uranium One? Which, BTW, was just shot down again with the repubs’ famous “witness” who knew all about Uranium One, but didn’t have any documents; and couldn’t any evidence of “quid pro quid” for the Uranium One deal. IOW, another dud.
glenn
2 hours ago
congress could not find their own asses with bothe hands and a pack of poodles.
Harleigh

PPO–we’ll have to wait until January for the Dems to rule.

Murph!
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
Hey Murph–how goes it?
glenn
2 hours ago
Harleigh–perhaps they need a pack of “pussy” cats to help them along…
glenn

I can’t wait that long, g! Hurry up Mr Mueller, please
pinkpantheroz

Hey gang…AD appears to be AWOL….who is running the show?
MurphTheSurf3
2 hours ago
none of the 70 investigations, hearings or commissions against Hilary came away empty every time. I still like her and would vote for her.
Harleigh
2 hours ago
Its me tonight, Murph – Ad is taking his lady to anniversary dinner
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
PPO–I’m with you–hurry up Mueller! I don’t want trump to do any more damage.
glenn
2 hours ago
hi murph we can do what we want tonite. lol
Harleigh

Harleigh…and the Russkies were scared shitless of Hillary…as their efforts to contaminate our election prove.
MurphTheSurf3
2 hours ago
Congrats PPO…..
MurphTheSurf3
2 hours ago
Yes, we can put our feet up on the table
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
Harleigh–Not sure I’d vote for her again, due to her age, but she is one smart woman, IMO!
glenn
2 hours ago
glenn, agree. She has the moral and numeric victory, but too much baggage now. New blood needed
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
PPO–Can we put our feet up on the sofa, too? Maybe even KAC style?
glenn
2 hours ago
well the rwnj’s say she has killed more people than putin. lol I always take my SS detail with me to go kill people.
Harleigh
2 hours ago
yup, and drop your socks on the floor and all!
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
PPO–have to keep my socks on to keep my feet warm!
glenn
2 hours ago
I forgot! Is everyone out of the weather OK?
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
I’m in floriduh, blizzard free for centuries.
Harleigh
2 hours ago
Harleigh–Let’s see–according to rwnj’s, she’s “killed” four in Benghazi, Vince Foster, and ??? So, Putin has only killed five people?
glenn
2 hours ago
Right, Harleigh, just the odd hurricane now and then!
pinkpantheroz

Last night it went down to freezing again. Tonight we’re a little warmer–in the 40’s. How about you, Murph?

pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
I’d put it in the thousands
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
They claim over 100 all the way to Seth Rich. It was started by the trolls and PU by the far right.
Harleigh
2 hours ago
Harleigh–so putin has killed only 100 people? WTF is wrong with those people? Never mind, it is a rhetorical question, one that I ask myself daily!
glenn
2 hours ago
They have no clues at all glenn.
Harleigh
2 hours ago
Glenn…we have had a better winter this year. Some good long freeze spells that farmers so value and several good rains.
MurphTheSurf3
2 hours ago
All of the anti HRC bullshit has all been debunked.
Harleigh
2 hours ago
Yeah, I know they are clueless, but that doesn’t stop them from showing it every day, does it? My personal fave is trump’s pastor, who admitted that trump had violated several commandments, but they still like his policies.
glenn
2 hours ago
Harleigh, that is the nub of all Trump problems. there are so many gullible fools
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
Glenn…evangelical hypocrisy is so obvious and so easily ignored by them.
MurphTheSurf3
2 hours ago
I survived the massacre in Bowling Green.
Harleigh
2 hours ago
Murph–I was thinking of you the other day. The cherry trees, the redwoods, the Japanese maples, and several other species are in full bloom here. Have you started your planting yet, or is it too early there?
glenn
2 hours ago
Just imagine if President Obama had done even one of the dumb trump follies? Uproar!
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
PPO–Uproar, my ass. It would be more like impeachment, if not lynching!
glenn
2 hours ago
Glenn….ground prep now…planting by the end of April
MurphTheSurf3
2 hours ago
Oops, not redwoods–dogwoods!
glenn
2 hours ago
murph, It has done one good thing, IMO. Exposed the evangelical movement for the hypocritical conmen they all are.
pinkpantheroz

PPO…the obama haters were well funded, well organized, and well coached.
MurphTheSurf3
2 hours ago
Murph–sounds good. Pretty soon, you’ll have some nice fresh veggies to share with us!
glenn

Sorry, what do you use a gogwood for?
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
Sundowners is the only explanation. one policy in the morning, reversed in the evening then tweeted the next day in the morning taking a shit.
Harleigh
2 hours ago
dogwood!
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
Then rehashed after Fox News
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
Dogwood is a type of flowering tree with beautiful white blossoms that stink to high heaven!
glenn
2 hours ago
OK!
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
Harleigh–good, succinct explanation of our domestic and foreign policy!
glenn

So
pinkpantheroz

Once they produce leaves, they are a great shade tree!
glenn

I’m not the gardening type, unless it grows on patio pavers! Shade is good!
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
That’s how the WH is run sadly enough. No wonder ther has been a 47% turnover and the rest have no security clearances, I mean c’mon. fucking hopeless.
Harleigh
2 hours ago
Glenn…I hope so….my main garden is a mess…the telephone company decided it wanted to redo all of the land lines that run through my property and tore up the ground bring lots of stone to the surface which now must be cleared AND they tore up several fences which will have to be replaced.

Hey, does Kalima ever come to Vox? I can’t remember
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
PPO–I’m with you; my husband was the one with the green thumb!
glenn
2 hours ago
PPO–I don’t think Kalima comes to Vox, because of the time difference. I think it’s the middle of the night there when it’s Vox time.
glenn
2 hours ago
Murph, paid for by the phone co?
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
Kalima has dropped in a few times since I have been here but her time zones don’t match up at all.
MurphTheSurf3
2 hours ago
12.30 midday tokyo time! She’s busy
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
Murph–ahhh–AT&T or some other company?
glenn
2 hours ago
PPO…phone company pay? Maybe down under…not here.
MurphTheSurf3
2 hours ago
Glenn….ATT.
MurphTheSurf3
2 hours ago
Murph–of course!
glenn
2 hours ago
Wow! Miserable gits!
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
Speaking of phone companies, what’s the latest on net neutrality?
glenn
2 hours ago
I worked in csr serv at ATT. they suck but will pay for damages.
Harleigh
2 hours ago
Not m uch about Net Neutrality here
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
Net Neutrality……given the constant cry of “breaking news” it is hard to keep track is it not.
MurphTheSurf3
2 hours ago
It’s not been defined yet on NN but it will be bad until dems take back congress.
Harleigh
2 hours ago
Unfortunately the dems only have a shot at the House right now.
MurphTheSurf3
2 hours ago
God, its going to take years to undo all the crap the GOP have dropped us into
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
yep
Harleigh
2 hours ago
Murph–right–so will the internet continue to operate as it does now, or will we have to pay for “premium service”. The way I understand the new law, is that we will have to pay to access the websites that we use now. Or, maybe I’m just confused as to what it actually is or isn’t. And…has it taken effect yet?
glenn
2 hours ago
I wonder will Don Jr and Shkreli will share a cell?
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
lol hopefully
Harleigh
2 hours ago
PPO–Nah, Don Jr should have to share with Julio, and Shkreli should have to share with Bubba.
glenn
2 hours ago
Well, I’d better go and do my shopping. Can I trust you lot to be nice and not smash everything in sight? Leave something for Ad to come hhome to
pinkpantheroz
2 hours ago
glenn it mostly has to do with speed and access…. it was already heading there anyway…. speed service levels. Access is going to be a bitch.
Harleigh
2 hours ago
Glenn…Net Neutrality comes down to Internet Service Providers and Search Engines having to treat all sites equally….not funneling, filtering, or screening sites with some getting through faster than others. And yes one service that may have to be offered is an open express lane for premium members at a price
MurphTheSurf3

Nite all. Always great chatting with you gents! See you all next week.
As a great way to share this experience, PlanetPOV is hosting a live chat (live typed comments) tonight to discuss the night's results as they come in along with everything else this election will bring and what folks think it will mean for the future.
It is long past time to stop playing Trump’s game of racism, hate, misogyny, and abject greed. If Trump is elected, he will end democracy as we know it. Harris will preserve it and work to make it better and far more inclusive so we can have it, as Lincoln said, a more perfect union. It will only happen if you vote.
