SOME GOOD ADVICE FROM ADAM KINZINGER
Maggie's avatar

I agree - other than the praise for Reagan - "However Reagan, showed that strength on behalf of Americans, not against them." He did not show "strength" on behalf of POOR Americans. That always seems to be non-existent in Republican minds. Other than the typical Republican praise for Reagan - their "god" (!) I do agree with the rest of Kinzinger's post. Thanks Tom

yeah, that part made me gag a little. as long as anybody of any party who has any hope of getting elected is required to do the Reagan Genuflection, I will gag. but a little gagging never killed anyone. so yeah...this is good advice. I'm not sure it goes far enough, but, considering the source is a Republican (an out-of-favor-with-the-rest-of-them Republican, but a Republican nonetheless), I appreciate it.

in the meantime, TFF has obviously been decompensating pretty fucking radically. I'm wonde…

I had to look up tardive dyskinesia! Remember the reports about his constant sniffing a while back? Wonder why no one mentions that anymore? These days, a lot of attention has been paid to those lesions on the palm of his right hand. No doubt about it - a life of drugs and cholesterol and leisure (plus ranting all night instead of sleeping) seems to be catching up lately. I hope his bubble of protection blows in full public view and that's mean of me - but also honest of me!

I figured EVERYBODY who watches TV knows about tardive dyskinesia because now there's a whole new, much-advertised (especially, it feels like, on cable news...what are they trying to tell us?) new drug for it. that is to say, a whole new EXPENSIVE drug designed to treat a SIDE EFFECT.

the "constant sniffing" is to get the crushed pills he's just insufflated (the fancy word for "snorting") down his throat. he's very, very big on Adderall (which, I am told by those in a position to know, also fuels the world of Wall Street...is anyone surprised?).
