You have to accomplish something before you have a legacy...unless of course your legacy is posting here...

No, I'm saying that's what I objectively should care about.

I don't though, really.

I may end up living very much like the Dude by the time I'm 50, if we're being honest. Maybe with a slightly better job/schedule, which isn't quite as Dude-like, but sacrifices must be made sometimes.

I was referring to issues. Sorry. I was unclear.

Good to know, actually. Like I said. Wasn't trying to contradict you, I've just never really seen you weigh in a lot on things with an sort of left-leaning policies/beliefs short of, as stated, religious issues.

Neither did millions of other Americans but that doesn't stop them from complaining !

Watched Joe Rogan's piece that went up on Netflix last night. Was filmed before the election, but after the primaries. It was pretty good. I think you'd like it. He makes this point well.

If you over analyze The Dude you can see a lot of philosophical implications that only probably I would care about !

And yeah, I'm not real happy with the Bernie Bros. who sat at home and pouted or threw protest votes.

Yeah, that was their right. But being petulant isn't exactly helpful to anyone, including the guy you supposedly supported.

I think that's patently false, look at how many of the Gen X/Millenial in-betweens (which includes me and, I'm assuming, you) love that movie so much.

I guess that is correct. Maybe people don't realize how philosophical they already are...

Everyone has a philosophy. Just not everyone actually stops to reflect upon it.

What's sort of funny to me is there's always that trope about people who are straight laced trying drugs for the first time and getting really philosophical.

Yeah. That's a trope for a reason.

Even our President knows the "dudes"

If the ban were announced with a one week notice, the "bad" would rush into our country during that week. A lot of bad "dudes" out there!

list of federal government agencies told not to communicate with the public

Quote:
On January 30, Senator Marco Rubio said that when his staff tried to obtain details about President Trump’s executive order on immigration, they were informed by State Department workers that the administration had ordered the agency not to share information with Congress.

“They’re aren’t a lot of answers as of today. In fact, my staff was told the State Department, as of today, was ordered not to talk to Congress about this issue,” Rubio told reporters. “I don’t know the reason. Maybe, perhaps, they’re still kind of working through how this is going to apply, so perhaps they don’t want to give us information that is wrong.”

When asked why, Rubio said “That is what we were told. You’d have to confirm that separately. We reached out to State Department, and we were told the directive was that they were not to share any information today. Again, I suppose its because they aren’t clear what to tell us yet, but that cannot be a permanent position.”


Top congressional Republicans say they were neither consulted nor briefed on suspension of travel from seven Muslim-majority countries, and ‘chaos ensued’
Quote:
Bob Corker, the Republican who chairs the Senate foreign relations committee, warned that lawmakers might step in and take legislative action to circumvent the order if the Trump administration did not address its shortcomings in the coming days.

“I think they understand it was a misfire here,” Corker told reporters on Monday evening. “Obviously the communication was not there. The agency process was not there. Folks here on the Hill were not aware of what was getting ready to happen.

“People around the world were not aware. Chaos ensued,” he added.

It's not just Trump that's got my panties in a bunch y'all

-Steve Bannon, an actual white supremacist, anti-semite piece of garbage. Who's Breitbart cluster-*** of hate news I wouldn't be at all surprised to discover how many people on this board frequent, who has been given an unprecedented amount of power within Trump's administration.
-Rex Tillerson, which really speaks for itself.
-Betsy DeVos, with no experience in education, never sent her children to public school, doesn't understand what the difference between proficiency and growth is, wants to arm our elementary schools to protect them from grizzly bears?
-Jeff Sessions, one of Trump's staunchest supporters who will let Trump's administration do whatever they want unchallenged, regardless of the constitution.
-Ben Carson, who himself admitted he was unqualified.
-Rick Perry, a man who wanted to get rid of the department he now heads. Who didn't even know what the job entailed. Say what you want about Obama, but at least he nominated a nuclear physicist MIT graduate to head the Department of Energy.

The list goes on, there's a lot of "bad dudes" out there!

It's not just about Trump. But for good measure "hurr durr, isn't Trumps hair bad! lol orange hitler haha"

That's cause it's been a liberal administration the past eight years and they disled that ***up to 11. Now that the pendulum is swinging the other way I will end up sniping the stupid ***the conservatives will do. So far it's been benign with liberals blowing ***far out of proportion to create a stir. Sane way conservatives yelled and screamed about Obama being a muslim Kenyan blah blah.

who cares who she is. why is Spicer holding up tweets, like they're hard evidence or something, in a room full of people who can't even see them well enough to read the piece of paper he's holding.
