Warning--bad language. But seriously funny.

I thought about trying to create something like this, but I could never do as good a job of it as this guy did.

Please send hopeful thoughts to my friend from Sri Lanka.

I have not been able to reach him so far. He lives here in the states, but goes back to visit his family in Sri Lanka often. I don't know if any of his family or friends have been affected, but I'm getting more and more fearful, the longer I can't reach him.

He is not a close friend, but he is a friend. And he is a wonderful guy. Please direct your hopeful and healing thoughts toward my friend.

Thanks.

On edit: On re-reading this I realize it looks very "sanitary", as if made up. I assure you it is not. I don't want to mention my friend's name, but he works at a casino near my home. That's where I met him. I know many of the staff there, but a couple of them have become friends, and he is one of them. I still haven't heard anything, but I will let you know if I do.

F**king CNN.

This idiot is talking about how "bad" Obama looks in the Russia scandal. Of course he leaves out a LOT of details, like how hard McConnell and the Dump Campaign worked to stop Obama's admin from doing anything. Even so, he minimizes the sanctions the investigations, etc., just to talk about how BAD Obama comes out it this.

And then fucking CNN puts it at the top page with a big picture of "Bad" Obama.

What I hate most about the orange menace: He just doesn't get it.

The prospective loss of Notre Dame leaves me speechless. Better historians than I here on DU can attest to its importance in history, architecture, art, politics and even war. When we watch it burn we watch little pieces of ourselves drift off into smoke.

I cannot bring myself to write his name right now, but the orange menace in our Whitehouse sees only dollar signs. He has no idea.

I want a WOMAN at the top of the ticket.

I feel like this post is going to be mostly caveats, but here goes...

I WILL vote for whoever becomes the Dem nominee. I will not badmouth other Dem candidates, including the male candidates.

That said, the loss of Hillary to the orange idiot still stings. This country is so overdue for a female president, and we have some amazing candidates this year.

My personal favorite so far (obviously) is Harris, but I'm also a big Warren fan, and have a lot of respect for Amy Klobuchar. Any of the three could commander-in-chief circles around Dump, and I will be voting for one of them in the primaries if there is any chance of them winning the nomination.

Also, just overall, I find all three of them more credible, honest, and, frankly, smart than all of the other candidates. I believe any of them would trounce Dump in any debate (which I guess isn't really saying much).

I know we're all crazy freaked out about how to get the rest of the country to vote for a Democrat, but I truly believe it would be more of a help than a hindrance to have a woman at the top of the ticket.

Anyway, my two cents. Fire away!

Refugee crime in Germany. Not.

This video is a couple of years old, but it's a great illustration of the kind of bullshit that MAGAts all over the world fall for.

If you've never watched any "Shaun" or "Shaun and Jan" videos, you're in for a treat. I recommend all of them.
