A country in shambles, under GOP rule

Efforts to blame Democrats for the country's deep woes assume deep stupidity on the part of the glorified Regular Voter.

    Jim Montague . tidbit. FEAST. etc., @ What you wrote on the last page. W.T. yes. W.T. a forest logger. you'd be hungry for some oak leaf tea. chew the bark off the stump of a axed- sassafras tree.

    William Timberman was kind. A real gentleman. A.I. ;^) aye? Are they (~^,) symbol codes? Secret messages? I'm ever sure if they are important and I miss something. Pedinska does that ;) sorta stuff. Is it a pinch, wink, kick, punch, middle finger, or a bite? Is it a sound bite? It often can takes 3-days for me to digest , or more, a lifetime, for the many great COMMENT to sink in....

    It's a daily bread. Manna. It's a crumb some times.

    It's a daily FEAST. Momma. The cooking is yummy.

    Any one dare participate @ UT, Salon get whipped.

    ~

    Who hasn't felt like billowing off to a safe bird sanctuary? Peep and chirp quietly? O Tree. You can end up a headless goat here. Say one 'PEEP' or sound a bold, polite Afghan cultural burp, and 'Warder! Warder!"... a scream! Horse will Snort.

    Oh, gallop, lashes, whips, collision, dust and flies.

    Horsefly bites, welts, and ya`wonder? No jump in.

    ~I was reading again a 1968 'Natinal Geographic'.

    ~Afghanistan. THE CROSSWORDS of CONQUERORS.

    ~In a ancient Afghan, they talk of thousand of years warrior bloodlines. The oral history is communicated around ourdoor fires, a sizzling goat meat on a Shish Kabob. People spoke and listened. Children were welcome to participate.

    Fires made wood chips cackle, from amber hot coal.

    Lights sparkles flew into a dark sky, a warmth from huddling close together was the experience and atmosphere as music, tea, and tradition was spoken/shared. You could puff from a sacred pipe, tell stories about merchants, American aid programs, and a German style helmets may serve as a seat for your fanny? Maybe for fat butt, guest Freddie? HOSPITALITY! A hat-pot-hemet, turned upside down, became a comfortable "cushion" seat. No Lazy-boys found 'round a agrarian culture. Infantry combatants ma survive for long periods by knowhow making a small cut from a goat's neck blood vein. You'd defend your country by knowing how to shoot a left behind German etc., machine gun. Russian tanks were a goat or yak stable? Tales about the swarthy invaders from the past history etc., Learning one's own age-old customs was paramount. The warrior, who died from past wars, was a hero model. Maybe with a weather beaten face, and scruffy beard... noy a cute beauty, but non-the-less a past oral tradition was spoke of.... Learning.... people were revered. Afghanistan. An ingrained suspicion of foreiners was sure in the depth of the individual/collective spirit.

    A sense, and lyrics in songs:`Better come home stained with blood, Then safe and sound as a coward.`

    Back to Will Timberman: No one has to agree with every other-person's sentiment. I read at the old UT for months before I dare uttered a word. Chris Floyd said:` There is a lawyer saying this and that. Well, get saddled up, and spur with heels, I go on and on, but....

    ~ shut thee hell up.

    I though: ~I gonna go kick his horse, pull a goat pony tail, and cuss like a vulgar, armed marine, army, navy, and air force bomber. private. I gonna break every damn rib-bone in his skinny body. It's time to feed lawyer bones to sheep. huh. bath time. edit. :^). corny. apple dough. ~W.T. and W.S. said ~You know what people should do to lawyers? Make them cook and serve mush. 3-X's a day.

    What you can't eat at one meal,

    stuff the ears, and back pockets.

    consume later. Go to the movies.

    Hurl hominy at one's in front seats.

    corn hominy for breakfast.

    Eat with timber tooth picks.

    hungry.
