Trump = Hypocritical jerk!

 Hernandez pardon proves Trump doesn’t care about drugs

Re: “Former Honduran president is freed,” Dec. 3 news story

President Trump’s pardon of former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez demonstrates that the administration’s efforts to stem the flow of illegal drugs into the country are a sham.

Hernandez was convicted for enabling hundreds of tons of cocaine to be smuggled into the U.S., causing untold damage. He served less than 18 months of his 45-year sentence and is now free. At the same time, the U.S. has blown up at least 21 boats in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific, and killed about 83 people for allegedly trying to smuggle drugs into the United States. The government has provided no evidence these boats were carrying drugs, nor that their intended destination was the U.S.

If the administration wants to convince the American people that the boats are actually carrying illegal cargo, why not interdict them, and exhibit the evidence to show the effort is having the intended effect, rather than killing all on abroad extrajudicially?

Because I'm sorta stuck in an Anti-Bush rant.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D99NHb6B03s Can you imagine all those rapper stars with these things? Of course, they'd have to have theirs with 'da bling! Can't be standard, gawd no! And of course, Britney's gotta have one in her car. Paris with her pooch totin' one on the red carpet at some fete. The boys in 'da hood will have a field day on their daily drive bys. P Diddy will wear his on a chain around his neck. You suppose there will be special pockets made in jeans for these things? Trailer trash folks will have 'em camouflaged. Jeff Foxworthy will have to come up with some fresh Redneck stuff. Think George W. will get one, each for the twins? Don't forget Dickie boy for those spur of the moment huntin' trips. Of course Ma Babs will have hers with pearls. Think it will affect the Royals? I can imagine Charles and Camilia on their fox hunt...........ah yes, and Prince Philip, too, must include the...

Not sure why,

BUT, am still wearing the necklace. Has been a tradition, for over 30 years, to wear the necklace, 'for awhile', until I lose the feeling, of the beach, in Mexico. Can't say why, but, still have it on. "Tis a sad day, when I take it off, and am not ready to go there, yet. Don't ask. 'Tis an old tradition...

You think the Repub brand is tarnished now?

Just wait 'til Bonehead leads us all over the cliff, to save his 2% buddies having to pay a little higher tax. The Pubs keep thinking the American public is stupid, and they can get away with their phony political crap. They keep forgetting we're not all a bunch of FOXNews sheep, who'll swallow whatever swill is shoveled to them. A once proud party, like a beast in it's death throes, striking out to harm whatever's close, threatening to shut the gov't down, (again), over the debt limit, which is just paying the bills they already ran up. Political hacks, pretending to be patriots. So sad...
