We also have Russia on the move and Red China building its ground and naval forces, including a new aircraft carrier. And a Muslim in the White House that bows to our enemies and throws our allies under the bus. All in the plan. And i is all out in the open with no meaningful resistance. The charge of sedition comes to mind.

I think the plan is, to try to cut the debt by cutting the military, and then increasing welfare.
I'm sure that'll stop the Russians and Chinese

The deficit is now greater than the military budget. If we completely eliminated military spending, exactly how could that help? I think the plan is to have no plan.

Check your figures again. That wasn't the case last I looked. Defense is ~ 561b (page 132), deficit $434B (page 138).

Now, I know the official budget from BHO is likely not worth the thousands of pages its printed on, but those are the official figures.

Yes, and both have dropped a great deal since ca 2010 timeframe when both were around a trillion each.

ETA: which tells us all we need to know about where the "savings" came from.

I didn't say it was my plan.
Or even a good plan.

My response to that would be: "yes".

...and Claire better get used to the fact that if she has the surgery and is honest, the overwhelming majority of guys will still reject her. Romantic attraction isn't an equal opportunity employer.

"Too much penis" can be added to the list, right after "Too Tall" and "Too Short", and right above "Man Hands".

But girls with penises need love too....

I especially like the part where he can't make out with guys, because they will find out. BUT, after the surgery, he won't have that problem.

Well, ain't that special. Regular Jerry Springer episode right there.

Because who needs honesty in a relationship, right?

Yes, from other girls with penises.

Ahhh, now that is a real shame right there. (I forget are we still doing the purple thing for sarcasm?)

 

[Cameramonkey]

Yes, from other girls with penises.

Or certain men who are actually into that.

To each their own.

Next thing we'll be shamed because we dont find EVERYONE attractive.

Bring the dinosaurs back. We need something to weed the garden.

(yes, I know dinosaurs didn't exist at the same time as humans)
