The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

What in God's holy name is wrong with you people?


The White House website trumpets the glory of the new ballroom.

At first, it seems appropriate.

But scroll down to the section MAJOR EVENTS TIMELINE and you will be shocked — or delighted, if you live to own the libs.

It starts straight-forwardly enough: the design phase from 1791-1800 . . . the reconstruction after the War of 1812 (the same war that marked the first and last time the U.S. Capitol was breached by hostile forces, until January 6, 2021) . . . the additions of the South and North Porticos, and so on — all depicted in black and white even after color photography was commonplace —

— and then suddenly, after the addition of the briefing room (1970-73), you have a color photo of President Clinton and Monica Lewinsky, directly followed by President Obama dressed as a Muslim hosting terrorists . . . a tasteful pause for Melania Trump constructing the Tennis Pavillion “featuring a neo-classical design” (2020) . . . directly followed by Hunter Biden cracked out in a bathtub (2023) and (2023-2024) “Trans Day of Visibility” featuring President Biden beside a naked woman covering her nipples with her hands.
