And they’re not releasing the full story. Calculate how much water they’ve spread on the melts and then calculate how much water they’ve got stored. The difference is either in the groundwater or the Ocean. It’s worth noting that they still won’t allow independent sampling in their territorial waters. They claim there’s at least 20cm [...]

I wonder if O is smart enough to let Hillary do the dealing with Iran or if that would be too much for his ego to bear?

It has been so long since I’ve had fresh caught crab of any variety. I’ll have to make do with claws or King legs shipped on ice.
Last time I have live crab, I put one on the floor for the cat to play with. It is a shame that neither digital cameras nor youtube existed then.

Doesn’t matter who wins here. That decision will be made in Israel and communicated to the President via congress.
I guess I’d rather O lead the invasion, his “negociating skills” should end the conflict sooner.

I love stone crab. There’s a place here that has ‘em in season and will NOT share their mustard sauce recipe with me. Bastages.

If we had decent privacy laws, a company like facebook could not exist. Their profit model is mainly selling advertising and marketing data.

Why do you think Obama LLP went to so much trouble to ensure that no primary challenger appeared? They know.

If you want crab, all you need is a long wharf, a net, and a chicken neck.
Do to the end of the dock, tie a string around the chicken neck and throw it into the water. Have a smoke. Pull the string slowly up and net the crabs eating the chicken neck.
Boxturtle (Oh, you’ll also need a steamer)

Much as it pains me to say so, but yeah, with current Dems. Not perfect, not even adequate, but we need to take at least a baby step away from this cliff.

ya know, I’ve noticed it too. I guess I just don’t want to believe that folks could be like that and not be embarassed about it.
The veneer of humanity that some people have is slowing peeling away. Don’t like what I see under it.
Perhaps we should install light boxes at the TSA checkpoints and deny entry to anyone whose skin tone isn’t light enough.

I wish. but in Iowa, it’s not just him. We’d need to retire the entire GOP and the upcoming generation of GOPers.
I think we can save subsequent generations of with education, as long as the current GOP isn’t around to stop it.

Well, it least the Iowa GOP is being honest and upfront about these things. Most of the GOP parties keep such things in code.
You’d think that would shame the average GOP voter, but most of them don’t see the party platform. If you’re anti-abortion, that’s good enough.

My husky’s play with the coyotes that live in the neighborhood. I’ve seen ‘em playing. I have my doubts about that arrangement, but I can’t really stop it. And I suppose if a tough gang lived in my world, it would be good to have a friend there. Boxturtle (Keep kitty in. The favorite food [...]

I don’t think he’d KNOWINGLY start WWIII. But remember how Shrub, Darth, and Rummy convinced themselves we’d be welcomed as liberators. I think if Obama’s political calculus said Iran would help re-election, he’d convince himself that it would be a cakewalk, that no other nuke states would object. Actually, I think less than that of [...]

I think the conversation went like this: O: I hate your guts, but I need you to hold up on Iran until I get re-elected. In return, I’ll assist you in hitting Iran as hard as possible as long as I can keep my hands clean. N: I hate your guts, but I really need [...]
