Political QRM on Twitter
RSS FeedI’m tired. So tired. I have been a Republican all of my life, extant. I have seen presidents come and go. Some I liked and some I didn’t. I never, EVER, thought of any of them as being worth anything more than a smack down in an op-ed or, more recently, on “social” media. I didn’t
Government shutdown, the stupidity of the media, Dems and elite GOP…. All this and more on this edition of Political QRM..
Since President Trump announced his latest offer to the Democrats to end the Federal Government shutdown and get financing for the wall, social media has been exploding in a mass of chest thumping, screaming in anger, hair pulling, and nasty comments toward him….. And that’s from his supporters. People, people! Take it down a notch..
I grew up in an area with a couple of Catholic schools, (that went to at least 8th grade), 5 public elementary schools, a public Jr., (7th &8th grades), H.S. and a LARGE public H.S.

Islam is Islam and that’s it” And again we see the collective wringing of hands from the so-called media
Seriously? Do you HONESTLY believe you’re “convincing” anyone that your arguments have ANY merit….AT ALL? Do you really, truly believe that your tactics are doing you any good?

Britain, France and Germany have allowed this invasion, yes, Islam considers this “refugee” exodus an invasion. Now they’re paying for it. Yet, they
There’s an experience I had. A very bad experience. I tell about this every once in a while, but never written down to this point of detail. I hope the retelling moves you the way the experience itself moved me; or at least provides you with insight to why THIS particular grumpy old goat is
