Ray as a longtime beekeeper I can assure you that whacking the hive is only a good idea if you want to get stung. It will still happen even if you're nice! But then it is supposed to be good for us....

So why do Swedish men move to America? (I actually know three here in sonoma county) Because they fell in love with American women...

Yes the truth is often funnier than jokes.

There you go again, Ray: distract, dodge, and divert. Is that what "intellectual aggression" is? Not unlike Trump with his tax returns, etc.
I'm not challenging your sources because you haven't...

The main question I asked was why do you not challenge the sources for the far left versions of reality and then challenge mine. I am "whacking the hive" in the hopes that people will question their...

I'm interested in knowing the sources of your information, Ray. Believe it or not, I do have acquaintances of your political persuasion and they are hard-pressed to provide legitimate (oh, I know...

well, maybe a little arrogance and disdain, though I'm sure you don't mean to feel that way. Your indirect psychoanalysis, that she's got a lack of confidence, shows that. Oh, I'm sorry - "could be...

Ray, I know I'm not the only one who would appreciate it if you would provide links to the sources of your statements, here and elsewhere. Thanks.

45907To be fair... and to speak more about "looks" more than "worrying about their looks"... I/we make fun of Trump's looks all the time... orangeness, hair, weight, small hands, pursed lips, long...

I'm sorry, rossmen, I appreciate your posts, but putting a woman or anyone down for worrying about their looks is just too much for me.

As for Pelosi's "lame moral high ground stance," whatever...

I take your point, rossmen. People can get caught up in the struggle to be RIGHT. At the same time, the issues we are debating are truly matters of life and death. I daresay we waccovians, while...

no, that's not the point to draw from the post.

But in...

Ray, instead of generalizations, please give some specific examples of Far Left Cartoons on this board that present fabrications, distortions and lies. As for exaggerations, well of course!

Also,...

uh, maybe? If they're not, if instead it's the usual suspects on the Repub side, do you have some inference to draw about them? If you show me any corrupt dems, I'll be happy to condemn them too....

so what conduct do I recommend that you disagree with?? and exactly what conduct do I recommend, anyway? I didn't see that part of my own post, I guess.

You've yet to directly respond to...

yeah, it's "just the <same> way". I hardly see a difference.

There are a few huge flaws in where your logic takes you. You make zero accommodation for the way 'society' (not coincidentally, the...

But couldn't you substitute the word "Capitalism" for "Socialism" in that first paragraph and have it ring just as true? I guess we'd also have to change "do-gooder tyrants" to "greed-crazed...

Thank you for that Bohemian article, Wisewomn. In regard to the discussion with our right wing friend Ray, I would point out that virtually none of us really knows directly the truth about any of...

In the interests of laying to rest (hopefully here, anyway) some of the Right Wing's favorite tropes about immigration, here is a recent article from The North Bay Bohemian called "Border Myths."

It really isn't funny to debate whether dem or pub policy is better for the poor, plenty of evidence on both sides. But to poke fun at American politics from all sides? What's not to laugh at?

'judging' is too simple.Humor isn't some magic ineffable quality. It can be looked at like literature or poetry. That's not 'judging', that's seeking understanding.

'as funny' ?? it's not remotely funny, or clever. We share a bunch with both places, but not in any really significant ways. Sweden's more civilized than we are, but more Americans speak Spanish than...

No, it would be just the same!

Thank you, Ray.

Ray, I wish you would do me the honor of answering my questions rather than saying "who drank the koolaid?". Don't you think they are good, honest, and very basic questions, rather than the...

Thank you for your comments. Very true. Unfortunately, a certain individual refuses to see the truth. I won’t mention any names Ray...cough cough).

You are entitled to your opinion. However, you write as if they were facts. You’re hiding in a cave.
Please educate yourself.

Thanks for sharing. I feel the same way about you. Given this, how can we respect and relate with each other in spite of our differences of OPINION? We are human beings first, and political beliefs...

Ray,
You really did drink the Koolaid.
You’re quite delusional.
Watching too much Faux news. Not news. Just bad entertainment.
