    I should point out Jim has banned John and Jeff more times than he has me.
    I hope you don't treat your friend Snyder that way!

    Is "three bean salad" something vulgar that I don't know about?

But if we are going to be foul-mouthed, dress like hookers, participate in cage fights, or full-on attack TV debaters, we are no longer delicate flowers in need of cosseting. Basic human respect, yes. But anything special, no. And frankly, that is the way feminists should want it in order to not be hypocritical.
    I kind of agree. What I noticed about living in both North and South and being from the South, we -- especially people of my generation -- still hold doors open and seat the little lady at the table and other stuff like that -- we're different people. No one wants to accept that. For instance, I had an acquaintance on this board for years ...

    She used to mow the lawn, snowblow the driveway and (egads) even cook on the grill. They'd line up in the South to kick your ass for watching a woman do ANY of that crap. ANY man in South that lets a woman on the BBQ is replacement worthy. And you better be working 18 hour days if she's on the lawn mower.

    Not sure about the "delicate flower" thing but you're still women. Another difference people with an agenda don't want to recognize.

    Report: Trump tells GOP leaders he won’t run as an independent

    POSTED AT 8:01 PM ON AUGUST 26, 2015 BY ALLAHPUNDIT

    Finally, some Trump-related news that fans and critics can each celebrate. If you’re a fan, a third-party run was always going to be an exercise in narcissism destined to fail. If you’re a critic, you’re far better off trying to stop Trump in the primaries and accepting the small risk of him winning the nomination than you are having him go indie and creating a huge risk that he’ll torpedo the GOP nominee’s chances in the general. No one wins with Trump going third-party — not Trump, not populists, not the establishment. The only winner is Clinton 2.0.


    If you believe HuffPo, the man’s made his choice. We can trust Donald Trump to be true to his word, can’t we?

    ...

    Roger Ailes thought he had a deal with Trump too, noted one GOP operative, until he turned around and started attacking Megyn Kelly again. Like I said yesterday, the silver lining for critics in Trump’s soaring polls is that the more convinced he is that he has a legit chance at the GOP nomination, the less reason he has to leave the party and play impish spoiler...


    Then again, unless he really does win the nomination, we’re destined for several “What destructive form will Trump’s anguish over his ego-smashing impending defeat take?” news cycles regardless. That’s why I keep thinking that unless he’s way ahead in one or more of the early states come New Year’s, he’ll find an excuse to drop out and spend the rest of the campaign sniping at the GOP field from the sidelines, assuring everyone that he would have won if only he’d hung around. The Trump brand can’t absorb the risk of humiliating public defeat to someone from a group of people he’s already dismissed as losers and phonies.

    ...

    Update: Hugh Hewitt asked Trump about the HuffPo story this afternoon. He agreed that the GOP’s been treating him fairly and says he’ll fully commit to the party “at some point.” Hmmm.

    Anything that isn't pro-Trump is a hit piece?

    The link refers to a failed Trump attempt to gain the nomination as "impish spoiler", "embittered clown", "sniping".... Yes, it was a hit piece.

    Read it how you will, I notice you didn't answer how long is 'too long?'

    A few ill chosen words define hit piece for you, yet extensive use of hyperbole doesn't bother you much from what you've posted of late. I suppose we all do hear what we want to, to some extent at least.

    It's all yours. I will not respond to nor post any further Trump-related links or data.

    Did you think otherwise? Usually anything that isn't pro-conservative is a "hit piece."
