Trump offers to 'compare IQ tests' with Tillerson after 'moron' report

Okay. This needs to happen.

This is so ridiculous. The source of that quote has repeatedly denied Tillerson called him a "moron." The journalist who reported it stated that Tillerson called him a "fucking moron."

Can we somehow turn this into a barn-style death match that includes Kevin Lowe and Brian Burke?

Dibs on the ticket licensing rights!!!

A Young Woman Was Tortured and Raped After Being Turned Away From The US

Well written piece.

What always gets lost in the immigration argument is the step of finding out and giving a shit about what would cause a person to risk their life to come to a place that seems to hate them. What are they running from? Is it worse than what happens when they come here?


Yes. Yes it is.

Funny, I just got back from Scotland and they are currently at around 55% of their energy coming from renewable sources, at one point last month wind turbines generated more than 200% of the country's energy need. Their goal is to be 100% renewable by 2020 (adding solar energy and coastal/tidal turbines to the mix). It made me sad to see how far behind we are. There should be wind turbines all over the place.

Build these things, maintain them, isn't this better all around for jobs and the environment?

Wake up little snoozy. If we do all these "renewable" things then the environmentalists win. Imagine the tweets we'd have to face. Besides, there is no time for innovation when we have our hands full draining swamps both literally and figuratively.

Sigh. I had never heard of that before (or I've blasted it out of memory with whiskey and red wine). That is the dumbest thing I've heard in some time. And keep in mind I sometimes work with today's university students.

Might want to check with the folks in SW Ontario. Not fans of the windmills that were foisted on them.

(I picked a Canadian example purposefully).

Curious what the complaints were. I've heard noisy and quite a few birds were being killed by them but neither of those bothers me enough to sway my decision.

Some people claim their health has been impacted by their close proximity to these wind turbines, however Health Canada poo-poos this for lack of actual evidence.

Wind turbines can be annoying, but not harmful, Health Canada finds
