Where and what are our choices?
Ah, now they show up.
I answered the poll generally since I don’t use Twitter or Facebook.
Sorry about that. The poll was supposed to open when the post went live, but it didn’t. Either I don’t know how to set up polls, or I was just screwing with you. Or both.
How about neither?
Ah, so you’re taking C: Basil is a dumbass. Good choice.
You can always put up a poll.
SMH. Polls are like azzholes. Everyone has one.
And yes, for all you Grammar Nazis , that is the correct spelling of my name I’ve just been foolin’ around with you all.
Spell it any way you like, just be consistent.
For the record, Snopes HAS fact-checked me before:
https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/obama-apologizes-for-declaration-of-independence/
But that was 10 years ago. I’d like it to happen again. Because when that happens, it gives the “just news” conservative sites an excuse to link a satire piece.
So if you want to scrape the attribution off this one
Democrats Push for ‘Gun New Deal’ to Try to Bring Dangerously High Firearm Ownership Down to 1791 Levels
and pass it around on Facebook like you’re outraged at the Democrats, I’d take it as a kindness.
Technically, doing so would make you part of a vast right wing conspiracy, so you’ll have to check your conscience on that.
“So if you want to scrape the attribution off this one…”
But that would be…
wrong.
Snopes: FACT CHECK: Vulture Wears Stilts in Attempt to Masquerade as Flamingo
We could rate this as “True” but the wood depicted is not the kind a vulture would use so we must rate this as “False”.
I don’t participate in the Union of Socialist Social Remarks
As an ALCOA stockholder, I like to do whatever I can to get others to make even more tinfoil hats.
Is TINfoil made out of Aluminium?
Asking for a friend.
Actually I don’t do Twitter and I only use my Facebook for updating progress on my stupid iPad games. Besides, I live in Westchester county, NY, so I know a lot of liberals. I don’t want to lose friends.
I expect lots of us have or had very liberal friends, due to the fact that they outnumber us, thanks to the overwhelming number of sources of indoctrination the left controls.
I had a friend entirely as clever as Jon Stewart or Stephen Colbert, but I had to distance myself because he also has their politics, and I can’t stand him when he gets political. I’m not an able debater, and I hurt my cause when I stumble, can’t always have facts and dates at my fingertips (although I can find them later), and generally come across ineffectually.
As you may suspect, I don’t do Twitter or Facebook either.
Reading a lot of the wasteful opinions on those sites would subtract from my enjoyment of life. Not being able to hit back like FrankJ, Harvey, Iowahawk, or James Woods would, too.
