Yeah, whatever happened to that shit? I thought I was on do not call lists and in all the years since its inception it has never worked. I do know that political ads and calls are outside that law, and “do not call” does not apply to them as they are exempt…but, its just been one big joke of a law from the very beginning with so many breaking the rules and no enforcement with any teeth to get these other shitheads to quit calling.
At one time I was told I had to let the State of Michigan also know separately that I didn’t want to be on a “do not call” list as well as at the Federal do not call registry…and I was told I had to do that yearly. Even when I did that, it still didn’t stop. If anything, it’s only gotten worse. Unless the gov’t advertises mass busts of people breaking the rules, and outing the biggest offenders of that law, its never gonna work. You have to make an example of the biggest unwanted bullshit con-artists and unsolicited callers that purposely break the law.
Russia and China are in Syria: let me guess - certain types of evangelicals are thinking ‘Gog and Magog’ here. And since Syria’s right next to Israel, we’re talking ARMAGEDDON, folks!
Or at least, the voices in these people’s heads are. And probably the voices on ‘Christian’ radio and TV as well.
Welcome to the most exceptional case of situation-dependent non-debilitating schizophrenia in presidential politics since the 2012 Republican Presidential Primary season.
suffering from a condition the name of which we should anticipate will take hold from this particular case, as ALS became known as
“Lou Gehrig’s Disease”.
I propose to open the bidding with this $10 term: Carson Sarc Coma.
The condition of understandably giving into temptation in mocking the particular person affliced with this variation on delusions of grandeur would be: a benign case of Carson Snarkoma.
A major conference to consider all these sorts of cases would be: a Carson Snarkorama.
Dad lives in Michigan too – same thing. But he found out that hang-ups didn’t deter them, so he switched to the “block their line” strategy, which apparently is more annoying to them. After a couple of tries, the campaigns seem to internally flag him as “don’t bother”. He swears it works.
Back in September there was a Chinese “freelance consultant” taken hostage by ISIS. So, yes, there are Chinese there - but more likely trying to make a buck than provide military assistance, though that is possible.
OT – Holy smokes Batman, that wind!!!
I thought a tree was about to come flying through my window just now.
Creepy weather. Expect to see national news spend at least a whole 2 minutes on downed power lines, blown off roofs and trees crashing onto solid mass in the Midwest tonight…
I now return you to your regularly scheduled entry on the latest GOP dumbfuckery…
One can only segue to the latest Creepy Carson anecdote by that measure. So by all means, please continue…
