What they've done to you is even worse.

You absolute fucking moron.

You're a fucking idiot. More than one thing can be true at once, you fucking moron.

I also had a handful of interactions with her as a student reporter back in the early 90s. She was always very gracious and engaging, but in my experience that's kind of true of all politicians by definition.

The one thing that always stood out to me is the way she handled the dual assassination of mayor Moscone and Harvey Milk. I was just a little kid at the time, and the way she stepped up and took control of the situation filled me with admiration and confidence.

Maybe that was the high-point of her political career, I don't know.

That said, you couldn't be a Northern Californian at that time and not appreciate her leadership, no matter what else you may have disagreed with her about.

I say all of the above while not touching the obvious fact that she stayed in office far too long.

Oh good, a pompous, nonsensical, deeply condescending, deliberately inflammatory, provincial and unhelpful comment! That's just what we need, said no one, ever.

Bullshit. There are vast areas of the western US and Alaska where this simply is not economically possible or even desirable. The same is true for huge parts of Canada and Australia and other countries that have very remote and thinly settled regions. Even when I lived in Ireland, which is tiny and relatively densely populated, there were rural communities that only had bus service once or twice a day.

The prefix "Mc" or "Mac" is Celtic anyway, not Germanic, so you failed in that sense too.

You mean my kids?

My cat's name is Nancy Reagan. She's almost lived up to it. And no, she doesn't like you either and if you try to pet her you'll get what you deserve.

Some cats have official titles. I had another cat whose title was "Chief Inspector." He was known to do home invasions and conduct snap inspections of my neighbors houses. He had more friends in the neighborhood than me.

Just imagine if they'd given the command of the British Antarctic expedition to Shackleton instead of Scott. I still think Amundsen would've beaten the Brits to the pole, but I very much doubt Shackleton would've gotten himself and his men killed.

There's some evidence that he was passed over for the command for political reasons having to do with him being Irish.

It was a warning. Frum is and always has been a staunch never-Trumper. He's still a conservative, but he was never on board with Trump and to his credit has been pretty vocal in his opposition.

The guy is surrounded by a team composed of some of the most elite, highly-trained and experienced security experts on the planet. I don't think he has much to worry about. His security detail will be composed of tier 1 operators; the elite of the elite.

Meaning no disrespect, but it's pretty obvious that you don't know much about the US military. The senior officer corps uniformly despises Trump for all of the obvious reasons that we already know about, and no doubt for other reasons that aren't public knowledge.

Trump is only popular among the enlisted ranks, and even that's not universally true.

In any case, while the enlisted ranks know how to keep things rolling and coordinated at the lower levels of organization, there is no world in which any of them knows how to coordinate whole divisions, carrier groups, fighter squadrons, signals intelligence, bomber groups, the nuclear arsenal, and so on and so forth.

The US military is a vast and incredibly complex organization and the only people who really know how to operate it are all in the senior officer corps which again, uniformly despises Trump.

All that said, I would almost kind of like some crazy MAGA fucker to try to assassinate Miley. You know he's protected by some of the most highly competent and experienced security experts on the planet.
