    Okay, that was a nice dip of the toe. Perhaps, this place is more active than I thought. Nice to meet you, but I'm gonna go back to watching the DBacks. I shall return.

    How can anyone not like someone who fashions their screen name after a heroic mongoose?

    Calls himself an educated leftwingnut too. Haven't seen any of those around in decades. Back when liberals really were liberal.

    Check your senses. Can't hurt anyone who has no feelings. As for the sissy part. Just trying to make you feel comfortable by imitating you.

    I've read the instructions, and I've posted with this kind of software before, but I could not post a video here. I used facebook and youtube as the source, and I posted with the url using the video icon and without it. Do I need to do it as an attachment? Am I too new? Anybody help a newbie out?

    Hello and welcome, from a British Conservative.

    On the evidence of your introduction alone, I can take it from your post that you're yet another Trump would-be disparager ?

    Perhaps, when you've properly settled down here and begun to impart your philosophising to us, you can explain why the 'Liberal Establishment' over in America has such contempt for democratic process, that Libs there will happily go to the extremes they do to oppose someone who has been, after all, ELECTED TO OFFICE !!!

    [I speak, by the way, as someone who's just now skimmed what appears to be a Facebook page of yours (Ricky Tavy, 'Mean Liberal', eh ??) .. and an article added on 5th June this year.]

    Just a thought ...

    Yeah, that was me. Haven't done any writing on that for some weeks now.

    I know a few Brits. None of them ever explained to me that when elections end there, everybody just shuts up and stops criticizing the winning opposition. You learn something new every day. Of course, I understand that over there the winner is determined by the person who gets the most votes. Lastly, it has been awhile since you have had to deal with a bull goose looney for a leader. George V?

    This is the easiest way to post Youtube videos. Just copy the URL at the top of the youtube page, that's it from the Youtube side.

    Then when back here"

    While in a post, click on the "film strip" icon:



    Then simply place the URL of the youtube video in the box that opens up. That's it!

    Thanks. I was able to post a video from youtube by using the url in the address bar, rather than the one you get by right-clicking on the video. Could not get one to post from facebook, though the icon says it is FB friendly, as illustrated in your pic above.

    Hello, dudes and dudesses.

    Checking out the Mongoose's latest scouting efforts. I guess if we're going to use labels I would identify as a social democrat. I enjoy the circus that is American politics, we don't have much like it at home, not to mention that it's good policy to check out what the elephant in the room is doing.

    Good to see some new blood in the arena.
