I think I see your problem - that doesn't look like a healthy diet. Hard to think well when one eats too many fried foods. Fried potatoes, fried chicken and white bread.... I am rather surprised since I keep hearing how popular Chik-Fil-A is. The saving grace is that jalapeno pepper.

Maybe if the KGB fed the Soviets such food, along with all the drugs Americans take, they would still be in power.

Or am I missing something? Is there something better on the Chik-Fil-A menu? I like to support ethical businesses, so I would go out of my way to try their food, but is this it??

Chik-Fil-A is good, much better than eating people's pets or that street vendor slop.

I've eaten dog meat more than a few times, sorry.

OH! And another twofer!

"If I decide to run for office, I'll produce my tax returns, absolutely," he said. "And I would love to do that."

Asked if he would release them publicly, Trump said, "we're working on that now."
"I have very big returns, as you know, and I have everything all approved and very beautiful and we'll be working that over in the next period of time, Chuck," Trump said. "Absolutely."

"I don't mind releasing. I'm under a routine audit, and it will be released. As soon as the audit's finished, it will be released," he said.

Per the IRS Commissioner at the time,

IRS Commissioner John Koskinen said Friday that it would be unlikely for a taxpayer to be audited for multiple years in a row, a day after Donald Trump maintained the agency had audited him a dozen years running.

“It would be rare for anyone to be audited every year,” Koskinen said in the interview, which will air Sunday. If there were no issues following an audit, Koskinen added, “it’s a number of years — two or three at least — before you hear from us again."

...Koskinen said the IRS doesn’t care one way or another if a taxpayer releases his or her own documents.

“We stress that we’re in tax administration, so we have no stake in any of the primaries going on,” he said. “From our standpoint, if you’re being audited, and you want to do something else, share that information with your returns, you can do that.”

Trump - "FU Domainace, I'm 73 and while I eat my fried chicken with a knife and fork, I'm still alive and I have the best brain, some say a genius level brain."

You're better off eating your sushi... much better chance of reaching 100 and then celebrating it with a Chik-Fil-A, for fun. Even the cows will thank you...

I'm blaming it all on Mr-X! He's the one that did the triggering.

Actually, my diet is normally on the healthy side - lot's of grains, nuts, veggies & fruit, extra virgin olive oil, etc - but I do allow myself 2-3 splurges a week. If I do exceed my USDA recommended Maximum Weekly Splurges (MWS), I do penance for all the following week.

Along with this I'm a runner, cyclist (weather permitting), and hit the gym 2-4 times a week along with occasional other activities. My weight is at the low end for my projected range and my doctor says I'm his most fit patient. After an annual physical, he once asked if he could have my heart should I meet an untimely demise. I told him only of his insurance would cover it. LOL!

I really wanted a second sandwich (always) but I know I'll regret it both in the way it makes me feel 5 minutes after the last bite as well as for the week I will forgo my other MWS to make up for it.

But seriously, if you ever get a chance to try one, I HIGHLY recommend it! One or two on occasion is not going to kill you...

Yeah, now THAT stuff right there on an ongoing basis is going to FU up big time!

Trump - "FU Domainace, I'm 73 and while I eat my fried chicken with a knife and fork, I'm still alive and I have the best brain, some say a genius level brain."

John Bolton 'told aide to report Giuliani's actions on Ukraine to White House lawyers'

Hill said Bolton instructed her to tell the National Security Council’s attorney that Giuliani was acting in concert with White House chief of staff, Mick Mulvaney, in a rogue operation with legal implications.

“I am not part of whatever drug deal Rudy and Mulvaney are cooking up,” Bolton instructed Hill to tell the NSC lawyer, according to her testimony.

She said that Bolton had told her on an earlier occasion: “Giuliani’s a hand grenade who’s going to blow everybody up.”

This stinky Onion has a lot of layers and as they are being peeled more people will be doing time.
I cant wait for Bolton to testify

I wonder if Bolton one of the two whistleblowers? hhmmmmmmm

The best meat you can eat... from cows that only eat grass and roam around the green pastures all day long!

 

[Domainace]

Gilsan, you used to live in California, too. I used to drive quite a bit between LA and San Francisco - and right in the middle of that drive were miles and miles of Harris Steak Ranch. It was the only food on I-5 that wasn't fast food. Still, a pretty unappetizing sight (and smell) before arriving at Harris Steak House. The food was good if you could forget what you just drove through to get there.

I only did the i5 on one occasion but don't remember that ranch. I did the Pacific Coast highway on several occasions.

But prior to living in California I lived in Rhodesia where 100% of the cattle in the farms ate ONLY grass, roaming around the fields all day long and only going into sheds at night. The meats as could only be expected, were tender and delicious!

Here in Madeira most of the meat is imported, but there is a small % of local cows that are only fed on grass and absolutely fantastic tasting meats, but also more expensive. This island is too mountainous to be able to have too many cows.

 

[Domainace]

You lived in Rhodesia...no wonder you hate the left. That's a case study of their development plans!

Best line of the week.

Rudy will be doing the perp walk soon.

Fiona Hill is a patriot and a hero. Not to mention a total badass. Yovanovitch too. Together they have more brass ones than the entire GOP senate.

I was wondering that from the beginning. Would be too funny if he was.

“Gym” Jordan was pitching a hissy fit that they threw Gaetz out. He seems to forget that non members weren’t allowed into the Benghazi hearings either. That’s just the way it works.

 

[Domainace]

That’s just the way it works.

You're just full of excuses aren't you? And always ignoring the underlying question. The Banghazi hearing was not about overthrowing an elected president.

You lived in Rhodesia...no wonder you hate the left. That's a case study of their development plans!

Rhodesia used to be the bread basket of Africa, but after independence and changing it's name to Zimbabwe it became the basket case of Africa.

What I detest most is what the left has done to basic common sense!

The biggest case study for economists all over the world is how a country like Zimbabwe achieved such stratospheric inflation in a decade or two, to the point where a 100 TRILLION Zimbabwe dollar could buy you 2 loaves of bread...

And it was cheaper to clean your ass with 100 Billion Zim dollar bills, than to buy toilet paper...

Interesting to note that when Rhodesia started using the the Rhodesian dollar it had the same value as the US$

I traveled extensively in all countries of Southern Africa. I also lived in Mozambique and England for many years of my life. Now I'm happily settled in my paradise island, where I was born and where I will die!

“Fiona Hill, the White House’s former top Russia adviser, told impeachment investigators on Monday that Rudolph W. Giuliani, the president’s personal lawyer, ran a shadow foreign policy in Ukraine that circumvented U.S. officials and career diplomats in order to personally benefit President Trump, according to people familiar with her testimony.”

There’s your “deep state” - it was Rudy all along.

Fun fact: Rudy’s father was a convicted felon and a mob enforcer.​

 

[mr-x]

can't make this stuff up.

You make shit up all the time. You're never wrong and have the insults to prove it.

 

[enlytend]

You're just full of excuses aren't you?.

Don’t give me that crap. It IS the way it works. Closed committee hearings are for committee memebers only. No “excuses”, just a simple statement of fact. And there are GOP members on those committees to hold the fort. No extraneous drunk drivers needed.

The Banghazi hearing was not about overthrowing an elected president.

(Yay - Domainace stated a fact! Give him a gold star!)

Neither is this.

 

[mr-x]

Remember when you were sure Dr Fraud was totally legit b/c your coffee clutch really, really liked her? Then you were sure Avenatti was legit because he was so dreamy?

Leaks without context are propaganda used to influence sheep.

What a leftist thing to say.

Fun fact: Rudy’s father was a convicted felon and a mob enforcer.​

Schiff is interviewing angry democrats and leaking enough to keep his "investigation" in the news. Misquoting Bolton, refusing to allow Republicans to call witnesses or cross examine.

If Republicans had half the spine President Trump has, the slanderers and false witnesses from Kavanugh debacle would have been prosecuted.

Schiff should be on his way to a disbarment hearing.

 

[mr-x]

From a leftie and Trump-hater who still has enough brain cells to recognize when the secret police are trying to overthrow an election....


"I don’t believe most Americans have thought through what a successful campaign to oust Donald Trump would look like. Most casual news consumers can only think of it in terms of Mike Pence becoming president. The real problem would be the precedent of a de facto intelligence community veto over elections, using the lunatic spookworld brand of politics that has dominated the last three years of anti-Trump agitation.

CIA/FBI-backed impeachment could also be a self-fulfilling prophecy. If Donald Trump thinks he’s going to be jailed upon leaving office, he’ll sooner or later figure out that his only real move is to start acting like the “dictator” MSNBC and CNN keep insisting he is. Why give up the White House and wait to be arrested, when he still has theoretical authority to send Special Forces troops rappelling through the windows of every last Russiagate/Ukrainegate leaker? That would be the endgame in a third world country, and it’s where we’re headed, unless someone calls off this craziness. Welcome to the Permanent Power Struggle."

leftist project Trump and his supporters will act lawlessly; they've been acting out for three years. Embraced violence, social ostracization for dissenters, justifying it by claiming disagreement with their "correct" opinion is violence.

Progressives are now regressive trogs with bigotry and disdain for opposing views.
