You just described me in the 1980's! The entire decade was a drunken blur. All good and fine for me, but I wasn't Secratery of Defense.

I'm stealing that one, RockRaven.

Just because he's an egocentric, dumb ass sack of shit is no reason for him to take responsibility for his inability to do his job.
Holy shit this guy's awful. But, he's an amazing "war fighter", at least as he tells it.

has been projection from Day 1. They accuse Dems of the very thing they want most. Namely, a deep state of lawless, orange koolaid-drinking zombies.

We were protesting against his "kids in cages" policy and I ran into seven people I knew. A few MAGAs showed up with their flag and their megaphone and got in trouble for disrupting traffic. I spoke with a woman who had spoken to them and she said they were saying that we were all bused in from New York City by George Soros.
