Monday Night Open Thread

I watched Operation Petticoat again this past week. And, I laughed as hard at as I did the first time I saw it. One of my favorites has to be the Seaman Hornsby scene.

So, what’s on your mind? Got something you’d like to share? It’s Sunday Night Open Thread, and you have the floor.

Who wants to start?

Irresistible

You can’t handle the truth!

Trump, we live in a world where you want to build walls, and those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Who’s it gonna keep out? You? You Patriarchal Racist? We have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for the “truth”, and you curse CNN. You will no longer have that luxury. You will be woke, knowing only what we allow you to know – that Truth’s death, while tragic, will probably win Democrats votes; and our existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, will get them elected.

You may want the truth because deep down in places you talk about at your political parties, you want us to be fair – you want us to be impartial.

We use words like “Multicultural,” “diversity,” “Sexual Harassment.” We use these words as the backbone of a life spent deflecting our viewers from reality. You use them as a punch line.

We have neither the time nor the inclination to actually search for and report the “facts” and to those who rise and sleep under the blanket of lies we spew every day what we provide should never be questioned and certainly not the manner in which we provide it.

We would rather that you just said “thank you”, pay your too high taxes and went on your way. Otherwise, We suggest you don’t question what we say and just stop tweeting. Either way, We don’t give a DAMN what you think you’re entitled to!

In Washington, Evergreen State College’s student newspaper includes a no-whites-allowed opinion section that’s strictly “for people of color by people of color.”

Huh. How long until they start demanding their own drinking fountains?
