They're calling my administration ham-fisted. That's good. Hams are yuge.

Yes, liberals call conservatives Nazis and conservatives call liberals Communists.
Doesn't bother me a bit, especially when Nazi's have such better looking uniforms.


Is this really a statement of which you are proud?


Raptor rises above the fray, and your instinctive response is to try and drag him back down into it.

Says it all, really.

Fear not, for nothing can drag The Rap down.



Just asking. You want to self identify with that group in an anonymous forum, go ahead.

What about in places where people know your name?

Do you tell your coworkers and neighbors the same thing?

What group? Fashion critics?

It's 2017, feral. Your gender stereotypes are a few decades out of date.

Are the two of you working together to derail the thread, or is it just a lucky break for you both that you found each other? Heck, if ever derailment was an appropriate fate for a thread, it would be this one.

Proceed, by all means.

To be fair, they've got nothing on the Swiss Guard and their psychedelic regimental flag.

I just watched Bannon in a taped interview from the Vatican not long ago, so it's funny you mention the Swiss Guard. Bannon said that we are in a war between Islam and Christianity, in so many words. At least, Daesh can now use his direct words which convey that basic message, and state that this person is high in the national security apparatus of the US.

The current administration has dangerous extremists on board. Bannon must go.

Stephen Miller is another liability. I watched him spitting with rage in a couple of interviews, and he must go.

The Obama administration had dangerous extremists, there are dangerous extremists in the house and senate, there were dangerous extremist in the Bush and Clinton White House and so and so on. Trump is entitled name his own staff, the media will smear and make boogeymen out of anybody that doesn't fit their ideology. Trump is following thru on what he promised to do as a candidate and the left wing media has forever lost it's credibility so all I can say is return to ther protests is quiet in the peanut gallery.

Elections have consequences, it is Trump's turn to govern now not Obama and a lot of things are going to be different because when Trump promised change he actually meant it. The far left/progressives/SJWs/whatever you want to call them do not believe in the peaceful transfer of power, they have a whiggish black and white view of the world and cannot tolerate deviation from their 'enlightened path'. They are the moral superiors, only they can be right, it's totally intolerant and bordering on religious in it's self righteousness. Trump won the election, the GOP has complete control of congress, it has the majority of governorships, it has the majority of state legislatives bodies. That's a mandate for change however the media likes to spin it, this is democracy in action.

LOVE the flag----but, the first thing that came to my mind, when I saw the uniform, was: "Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right....." (I'm always thinking in song lyrics and TV/movie scripts, for some reason. LOL)

It's fun to have some people sort of kind of thnk I'm one of those. It's much better to do it in real life than online, though. Their reactions can be priceless as I'll illustrate later.

I did have one liberal co-worker that commented on my shirt with the HK logo (Heckler & Koch) that H&K has neo-Nazi ties. He went on to tell me that he wasn't at all surprised that someone like me (a conservative) would support such an entity by wearing a shirt like that.

Some people would go on the defensive but I didnt. I snapped my heels together and executed a nazi salute.
He WAS NOT expecting that. The look on his face changed from total befuddlement, to shock, then rage. Rage as in it was like watching a volcano about to erupt and the blood rising into his face was the lava.

This whole time I had somehow m managed to keep a straight face but the few others in the room (conservatives) busted out laughing, then I did. Our liberal friend stormed out of the room slamming the door so hard I thought it would fall off the hinges. He wanted to report me but apparently never did, not that it would do any good since all of the people he'd go to would be conservatives that were not impressed with him (he was a rather annoying person to put it mildly). I wore that HK shirt more often after that and ordered another just to rub salt in :twisted:

Does that answer your question?
