    Dunno.....did you ask either one of them to watch your pot? Or perhaps they gave you the recipe which one of them called for boiling instead of broiling? Sweep under a rug? Sounds like a recipe born for disaster when the "in case of" calls for a rug and a broom. Tossing it out the back door is much cleaner and safer IMHO.

    I think it's a question of motives. Am I posting to helpfully supply information, or am I hoping to cause dissension? That's a good question to ask myself.

    And because I'm distressed at someone being in a car accident, doesn't mean I would just drive by and not help them. I know why I come here and post, and I can tell everyone here that I come here to enjoy conversations with others. I don't come here to try and cause trouble or be mean to others, no matter what their beliefs are.

    We all get to say what's on our heart. Our words are a reflection of what's happening in our heart.;)

    Lest we forget the main reason why Joe Biden dropped out of the 1988 presidential race: He copied the UK labor leader Neil Kinnocks 5 page speech nearly word for word.
    Hmmmm.....now Joe is the Vice President and has been for 7 1/2 years? It obviously didn't hurt Biden much in the long run but let us put things into it's proper perspective.
    Even if Melania had PERSONALLY prepared her own speech and knew every word of it was copied, she isn't running for any political position within the U.S. government.
    Joe Biden was running for the presidency which now tells you a lot about the type of person Obama wanted as his VP.

    As a matter of fact, it was sort of a gimme after all the hubbub. A couple of sentences in an 1800 word speech isn't too condemning but there is still the question: If Meredith wrote the speech, how does that implicate Melania in this dastardly deed? I'm sure that MM didn't lean over and whisper in M. Trump's ear and tell her that a few words were ripped off of the female part of the present residents in the White House who, in just 5 more months have to vacate said home.

    I haven't tried it yet but a guy on the radio this morning said he also put those sentences into a search program and came up with something out of "My Little Pony.". Just sayin'.

    Also, we might as well do a deep cleanse. Melania didn't finish college. I knew that before it started making the rounds. She's also posed nude...so what. She was single and a model.

    While that may be more of a big deal here, believe me in Europe they're less prudish about the human body than we are here.


    I saw so many topless women when living in Hungary. It's pretty normal there.

    I still love the results of last night's speech from Donald Jr. The media almost immediately came out and said that part of his speech was plagiarized from another speech by William F. Buckley. Problem with that is that when Buckley heard about it he tweeted that it was okay because he was Donald Jr's speech writer and merely inserted something he liked from one of his own speeches.
    Almost like sharks coming to dinner but left their false teeth in the glass. Hilarious!!!
