Assistant: Mr. Kibbitz? Reince Priebus on line two. Sid: Who? Assistant: He says he's chair of the Republican National Committee? Sid: Oh, that Reince Priebus. Put him on hold. Then, in about 20 minutes, disconnect him. When he calls back, tell him I'm in meetings all day. Assistant: Okay. Why? Sid: This is my town! Nobody cold-calls me!

Whatever his political views, he is delusional if he thinks he is important enough to claim to own Hollywood. He could be missing a big opportunity.

He’s establishing who the alpha is. The big opportunity of Obvious Anagram, not happening.

Until the end of his presidency, and continuing until now. As I recall, he left office with 60%+.

This satire on the super-rich is as current as ever. Kibbutz is every billionaire that buys congress and, increasingly, the state legislators.

I’m sorry, I don’t see liberals and conservatives as extremes.Radicals and anarchists, maybe so. When we had liberals and conservatives, we used to be able to compromise, but not now.Remember, the only thing in the middle of the road is the yellow stripe.

@Factchecker, if you pass by, can you explain what a “natural born citizen” of the USA is?
(Just wanting to get confirmation of what we all think we know…)

For many more. Let’s see, he was in office 2,922 days, that’s at least 2,922 reasons for bush to have been impeached. Besides that he was a Usurper to begin with.

Not a Fact:" according to the court, “it was never doubted that all children born in a country of parents who were its citizens became themselves, upon their birth, citizens also.”.The word two does not appear and therefore is as irrelevant as you are.

-For a lesson on oversimplification, look at ’FactChecker’s statement on what caused Detroit’s bankuptcy. -Just ignore the fact that Detroit overpaid a tremendous amount of incentives for projects like the Chrysler Jefferson North Plant. Just ignore the fact that, when people were leaving, Mayors Big and Kilpatrick both borrowed a lot to cover operating expenses, instead of cutting services.-Just ignore the fact that the City kept raising taxes as property values fell, thus driving out more property owners. -Blaming the bankuptcy solely on unions insisting that pension benefits had to keep pace with inflation is identical to blaming hte US deficit completely and totally on Medicare, and ignoring the billions that were borrowed to pay for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.-But I’m sure that ‘FactChecker’ agrees that the deficit is solely because of greedy geezers and has nothing to do with anything else…..

He is the most moderate of all with no driving ideology or political philosophy, only the desire to be liked, laid, remembered fondly..His wife is different.
