A little harsh, eh?

You've never eaten beet leaves? Taste a lot like chard?

Oh, well, I'm going....

Jeez, what the hell. Yeah, as I mentioned, we prefer beet greens (Beta
vulgaris L.) to Swiss chard (Beta vulgaris subsp. cicla). You're not
going to miss much. Not much of a view from cyberspace. Pixels are
really limited, ya know? You're making me look like a cranky old man.
Say what you like. I am not old.

Mad dog Republicans to the right. Democratic spider webs to the left. True conservatives, and liberals not to be found anywhere in the phantasmagoria
of the American political landscape.

America is not broke. The country is awash in wealth and cash.
It's just that it's not in your hands. It has been transferred, in the
greatest heist in history, from the workers and consumers to the banks
and the portfolios of the uber-rich.
