I thought people called her dread abuela because it showed how utterly out of touch and un-savvy (and racist) she was to try and brand herself that way.

I coined the loving term as a portmanteau of Dread Queen and Abuela as a moderately tongue in cheek term of endearment. :colbert:

It's kind of amazing how right from the get-go it was obvious Trump would only take credit for successes and blame congress for literally anything that doesn't meet his campaign speeches. Yet they still lined up for it.

How do they imagine this ends? I don't think they know.

I think they assumed there would be a lot more successes, because he just wanted to play around in the White House with his big trucks and fire engines and stuff, and would sign whatever they sent him. If they got lots done it wouldn't matter too much if Easy D got all pissy (in his diapers) when the occasional thing went wrong.



But because they had previously assumed all they were going to have to do was obstruct Hilary Clinton, they didn't actually have any plans in place for real, substantive policies. And because, in turn, Ryan and McTurtle are themselves stunningly incompetent at everything except hucksterism, there was no way to get their poo poo together in time to do anything useful.

Basically it's incompetent dipshits all the way down, and they're all cowards held hostage by a rabidly insane segment of their base, so there's no way out.

quote:

City officials in Corpus Christi insisted they’re ready for the worst.

“Game on,” said Mayor Joe McComb at a news conference. “We’re looking forward to having a very good positive result from this storm. We’ll get through this, we’ll be better for it because the community has been pulling together.”

But many people here are nervous. In Aransas Pass, 66-year-old Mike Taylor said he was left behind during the evacuation process. As part of routine hurricane preparations, the town maintains a list of residents who need help evacuating. Taylor, who doesn’t own a car and lives with his disabled 40-year-old son, said he thought he was on the list.

No one ever came for him.


“I thought I had been on the list, but no one came so now I am just out trying to find some groceries,” said Taylor, who was trudging down Route 35 in a yellow raincoat, even though all the grocery and convenience stores appeared closed. “I lost my driver’s license because I am nearly blind.”

Taylor declined an offer of help and said he was resigned to ride out the storm in his one-story house just a few blocks from the water.

What is Congress' approval rating? 19%? Less? People always hate Congress. Even people who love their own Rep and Senators, hate Congress because everyone else's Reps and Senators are bad. This just seem like a natural extension of that feeling.

High ground if they can find any. Odds are they won't. Feral hogs and other wildlife not accustomed to shitloads of rain will die and push back into the area over the years.

The fireants will do okay though. They form giant platforms made of ants and use one another to float. So they'll be everywhere after this like usual, don't you worry.

Oh, right, I forgot the stinging ant boats made of stinging ants.
