Interesting how we're still tying ourselves up in knots and clutching our pearls over whether DeNiro should have used the word "fuck"... while Dufus is actively and deliberately offending our allies and kissing the asses of dictators.

Somehow, the word "fuck" doesn't bother me as much as that.

They like to get all in a tizzy over a word while ignoring the atrocities that their leaders are committing. Unfortunately they are the noisy ones.

We have to switch our proverbs. Let's not go with "the squeaky wheel gets the grease." When it comes to the fascist thugs, I would rather go with "the nail that sticks up gets hammered down."
