Rita was hilarious. She also noted that men living alone are "like bears with furniture." I've found that comparison fun to use with, for example, contractors who I might refer to as "bears with tools." It would be fun to hear what she has to say about Impeached President* Trump.
Trump Lashes Out At Windmills Again, Says They ‘Will Kill Many Bald Eagles’ ...
... Plus, those idiots shrieking about it have never made the comparison to birds harmed by fossil fuels.
Or cats. Or loss of habitat.
If cats could fly, as well as take advantage of wind currents, birds would be in a lot more trouble than they are. Everybody knows it. Lots of fumes and cat gases spewing into the atmosphere; it's a disgrace, a hoax, it shouldn't be allowed to happen.

Impeached President* Trump and his ovine Trumpettes are a waste of skin.
Today I realized that a truck that never leaves the municipal trash dump but has as its only purpose a mandate to move the trash around and compress it in an effort to alleviate the monumental stench associated with such an environment would accurately be called a TRUMP. The operator of such a truck would consider himself slickety but would never be able to alleviate the stench adhering to his clothing even though he himself would never notice it since he drives a TRUMP five days a week. Because of his inability to notice his stench, other citizens, being aware of his odorifious state would snicker and openly laugh about him and refer to him as a TRUMPER. Thinking about this and imagining the sickening and horrific stench that permeates the driver of a TRUMP nearly made me throw up, especially when I consider how a TRUMP driver often must run over and compress dead cats that are consigned to the dump. He sees them and winces but runs them over and compresses them anyway. Other cats that are still alive know about this but inexplicably yearn to be victims of the TRUMP and the TRUMPER but they don't know why. Let this be a lesson in an olfactory as well as a feline sort of way. Don't be fooled.

... According to the US Fish and Wildlife Service, collisions with turbines kills between 140,000 and 500,000 birds annually. Other energy sources, such as coal, oil and power lines, contribute to millions of bird deaths. However, cats remain the biggest threat to birds, killing an estimated 1.3 to 4 billion birds each year.
... It's misleading to claim that after a certain amount of eagles die, the government makes wind farms "turn the windmill off." However, there is a limit of incidental eagle deaths the wind farms are expected to remain within.
... Wind power has the smallest carbon footprint compared to other energy sources, according to the Department of Energy. A 2014 study additionally found that after operating for five to eight months, the average wind turbine will have offset the energy expended during its manufacturing.
The same study noted that "wind turbines produce energy with virtually no emissions." According to the Department of Energy's National Renewable Energy Laboratory, coal-powered electricity releases about 20 times more greenhouse gas per kilowatt-hour than wind.
"You know what they don't tell you about windmills?" Trump told the crowd, "After 10 years, they look like hell. You know, they start to get tired, old. You got to replace them. A lot of times, people don't replace them. They need massive subsidy from the government in order to make it."
Facts First:The government does not provide subsidies for wind turbine repair or replacement. Though wind farms receive a tax credit if they produce a certain amount of energy within their first decade, this subsidy will be phased out by 2020. Furthermore, the average lifespan of a wind turbine is 20-25 years, not 10.
... This is not the first time Trump has claimed proximity to a wind turbine impacts property values. However, several major academic studies found no statistically significant decrease in the average property value due to wind turbines in the US. ...
Despite longstanding opposition to renewable energy on the part of President Trump, who gave a rambling, nearly incoherent disquisition on windmills last weekend, the wind power industry in the United States continued to grow in 2019.
The country set records for newly installed capacity of wind power in both the second and third quarters of 2019, according to a report by the American Wind Energy Association, reaching a total of 100 gigawatts —roughly on a par with nuclear plants, although in terms of actual power generated (as distinguished from theoretical capacity), wind is still a fraction of nuclear and fossil fuels.
“Wind now supplies clean and efficient power to the equivalent of 32 million American homes, sustains 500 U.S. factories, and delivers more than $1 billion a year in new revenue to rural communities and states,” Tom Kernan, CEO of AWEA, said in a statement.
At a time when global carbon emissions that cause climate change continue to rise, wind power now accounts for 6.5 percent of the energy America produces. Once the wind turbines are constructed, the energy they produce is carbon neutral and renewable indefinitely....
Imagine where we could be if not for such moronic hostility, fossil fuel obstruction and timidity from libs.
"It's the season for giving and for giving back, from supporting folks in need in our communities to reaching out to neighbours who might be alone for the holidays."
Trump said:
"By willing to put past differences behind us and move forward together, we honour the freedom and democracy once won for us at so great a cost."
...
"But in time, through his teaching and by his example, Jesus Christ would show the world how small steps taken in faith and in hope can overcome long-held differences and deep-seated divisions to bring harmony and understanding."
"Many of us already try to follow in his footsteps. The path, of course, is not always smooth and may at times this year have felt quite bumpy. But small steps can make a world of difference."

187 new Federal Judges have been confirmed under the Trump Administration, including two great new United States Supreme Court Justices. We are shattering every record! Read all about this in “The Long Game,” a great new book by @senatemajldr Mitch McConnell. Amazing story!
The ONLY reason we were able to get our great USMCA Trade Deal approved was because the Do Nothing Democrats wanted to show that they could approve something productive in light of the fact that all they even think about is impeachment. She knows nothing about the USMCA Deal!

And he leads them right into his loving grasp with howls to his (your) victimhood and bragging and teasing how great it could be. Just trust in trump. Everybody knows it. Many people say it. You know the rest.
In this year’s address, which he offered in both Irish and English, President Higgins touched upon themes of immigration and emigration, as well as the need for action in the face of climate change.

Leftists are discontent not having their head up Obama's butt. His protégé is available though.

Lots of data there, too much to excerpt. Almost none of it is positive for impeached President* Trump.
Sure, but will they vote? And vote Dem.
Idk. I suspect the young ones have poor turnout, but perhaps better than US youth on average. The older ones may be pretty good - duty and all that. I posted more as an indicator of generalized patriotic disfavor with impeached President* Trump than for tallying their votes.
More than half of Americans think President Donald Trump's behavior warrants his removal from office and 57% think he's committed an impeachable offense, according to a poll released Friday morning – unwelcome news for a president facing a Senate trial that could begin this month.

The public needle moving is good, but how much does it take before we see real cracks in the Senate?
I'm guessing above 60%.
