Amateurs Vs. Professionals

In which some smart guy compares the hard-headed and realistic professionalism of Trump’s foreign policy towards Iran vs. that of the feckless Obama administration.

While then-Secretary of State John Kerry famously treated Iranian negotiators like esteemed colleagues, Vice President JD Vance just treated them like a landlord dealing with a delinquent tenant who thinks he owns the building.

I’d like to think that was Kerry’s underpinning philosophy — simple foolishness and a massive misread of the room — but then I’d have to think that Fuckface’s dealings with Iran didn’t involve in-depth discussions with Barack Traitor Obama, who always had another, more malevolent attitude towards his adopted country.

The fact of the matter is that the Obama administration sold the United States out to Iran — with cash as well as white-glove treatment — and it’s taken us this long to reverse that ghastly policy.

Widow sues after husband was killed when he wore 20-lb chain in hospital room where she was having MRI scan — Charles Darwin, call your office.

A question to one of the agony aunts in the newspaper:

Am I being prissy if I say no to having a threesome? — Yes you are, and that’s not a Bad Thing.

Suspect in $11 Million Minnesota Fraud Scheme Disappears — “Abdirashid Ismail Said avoided being ordered to surrender his passport by paying the unconditional bond amount of $150,000. The conditional bond, which would have required him to surrender his passport, was set at $50,000.  Investigators had voiced concerns that Said had a wife and child living in Nairobi, Kenya, and it was possible he could flee, hide, or prevent officials from executing the warrant.”

You have to ask yourself this question.  The scrote is charged with embezzling $11 million, and is hit with a chump change bail amount.  He has family still living in Kenya… and people are shocked — shocked! — when he disappears?  Whoever set his bail should have to spend an amount of time in jail equal to what Said would have served, no bail, no early release, just for being either a moron or a co-conspirator.

FFS.  What time does the range open, again?

Classic Beauty: Ann Rutherford

Classic Beauty

Ann Rutherford was my kinda gal.  Her speech teacher told her she’d never be anything, so she faked a resume, got a job on  radio and then in 1935 became a huge star, acting in Westerns, romances and ten (!) movies as Polly Benedict, the girlfriend of Andy Hardy (Mickey Rooney).  Take that, speech teacher.

Then she quit acting in 1950 and did rich woman stuff (she was married to the guy who owned the May department store chain).  And yeah, she was gorgeous:

Loyal & Longtime Readers may be wondering why I’m not posting a series of Train Smash Women updates at this, the time of the Grand National at Aintree, Liverpool.

That’s because some spoilsport in the event’s admin decided to post, and enforce, a stricter dress code.  The result has been that the female attire is now only dreadful, as opposed to the happily-catastrophic ones of the recent past.

No fun at all, really.
