Unfortunately, abuse is something that has not been unique to the US-although it has been publicized here in recent decades (not sure if that's true in other places, aside from Ireland). I'm with Oblong-judging from the people who hate this pick, I'm inclined to be hopeful.

Water damage-need I say more?

All of a sudden I have the song Big Yellow Taxi in my head.... and memories of a boring part of a 7th grade New England Heritage tour when we toured impressive but incredibly gaudy gilded mansions in Newport.

Did his not having his hand on the Bible while taking his oath mean he doesn't have to keep it? Or does he just think he doesn't have to?

Is it good or bad that I had to remind myself that you wrote this, and not the Golden Idol? In other words, nicely done!

Yup.

Anybody else follow White Stars, Black Sea on FB? Every April they do a history of Titanic-from preparations to set off on her maiden voyage to the hearings and all coverage of news about the disaster. I find it interesting.

Sad part is, there are people who will be perfectly happy-as long as the people they hate have it worse. I'm already seeing it. 😞 Or they'll blame it on the 'elite' and go an a rampage.

Looks like I won't be returning to Amazon to shop any time soon.

Vegetable oil is too woke.

Or it could be that MTG was testing the waters, to see how far she could go. If too many people object, she'll call us snowflakes all while claiming she was talking about something/someone else.

I'm definitely confused, because I thought this was what she wanted. Or did she only want places like the People's Republic of Massachusetts to bear the brunt?

I could see it happening, the same way Hitler murdered many former allies and/or factions of the Nazi party in the Night of the Long Knives.

Definitely. The KKK had definite opinions on "papists" and I assume they still do.

What a lovely person.
