Interesting choice of a thread for your first post, Pimephales...

Couldn't tell from your comment if you were talking about the POTUS or not but if so I guess you're right... that is when he's not making fun of Special Olympic participants, joking about Nancy Reagan holding seances, yucking it up at the thought of a recovering addict dying from kidney failure, and occasionally refusing to hold his hand over his heart during the national anthem... maybe your idea of classy but not mine.

If on the other hand you were talking about Jumptrout showing great respect and lots of class... I'm even more mystified :wink:

Seems everyone on except pimpphalic knows "I" have no class.
BBG, don't forget about his wife slapping the Queen on the butt. But, they have only been there a little over 100 days. I am sure we will see more antics.

That in it's self explains why neither of those Peckerwoods need to be in the White House.

What an embarrassment :( for our country.

My name ain't Abe, but I'll be honest. With North Korea firing off nukes, we need someone with experience and balls to deal with it. I don't think a neighborhood organizer qualifies.

Jumptrout, the administration has spoken about sending a really nasty complaint letter... surely that will have the North Koreans shaking in their boots :smt009

Thought what Glenn Beck said the other day was spot on... said for those worried about global warming, they might want to worry about North Korea lest the earth REALLY warm, "like around 10 million degrees". Here's a link to his article aptly titled, "Talk is Cheap"...

No. It is about REAL life.
Everyone needs to practice "duck and cover".
The economy will spur real soon.
Buy medical stock in bandages, salve,bottled water,morphine,sunglasses, etc.
