"I’m not going to read Time Magazine, I’m not going to read Newsweek, I’m not going to read any of these magazines; I mean, because they have too much to lose by printing the truth"- Bob Dylan, 1965

They made a point, swift, on target and verbally deadly. What's not to like. The parting shot was cool too, because she does suck and I don't even live there.

And surprisingly, all without any New York profanity. I'm impressed!!!!
"If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24

It must be encouraging to her to know that she has such well-informed and supportive constituents ! I'd have paid money to be able to say that to her face. That made my night! It was well executed, too...not profane or threatening in any way. Just blatant honesty. Well done, gentlemen, well done.

What a burn. Lol.
"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

Not bad. I think I could have done better. It would have required *bleeps* for my freedom speech. I guess they were being somewhat respectful.

Profanity is a crutch used by those who have limited vocabularies. When a person can express himself without profanity, his message is clearer, usually more succinct, and more persuasive.
You never heard my late father in law! A sailor from WW2, he used language very descriptively. There was nothing unclear about the message.

Yea, that isn't true. Profanity and limited vocabulary have zero to do with the other. I will agree that profanity is a bad habit but it is indicative of nothing beyond that.

Did you notice her boyfriend walks several steps behind her? That is strange.

I was in a class long long ago and the instructor, a man of national renown but who will remain unnamed here in order to protect the guilty made a profane comment in his presentation. A female student interrupted his stream of thought and asked if he knew what profanity said about someone.
He said that he did, then his exact response was, "Profanity's a rhetorical crutch for inarticulate motherfuckers." and proceeded form there.
This endeth the lesson.

I don't know which is stranger, that he walks behind her or that she has a boyfriend.
