Not the owner of many possessions will you be right to call happy:
he more rightly deserves the name of happy who knows
how to use the Gods' gifts wisely and to put up with rough poverty, and
who fears dishonor more than death.

@lizardmess Becasuse it's not true, you airhead economic illiterate! Stop blaming other people for your problems!— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 8, 2016
I woke up this morning to see that AP called California for Clinton, an impressive 13-point victory, with 56% of the vote (6% uncounted).— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 8, 2016
Clinton ended up June 7 with at least 2184 earned delegates (vs. superdelegates), and she'll easily take upcoming DC. Every big state. Legit— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 8, 2016
I don't go on Twitter looking for people to flame. But when I read somebody say she wished she should have bashed W to Barbara why jobless.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 8, 2016
Presidents have only indirect tools to influence the economy.They can try to rein in the structural damage of Big Government:high taxes/regs— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 8, 2016
Presidents can also work to reduce uncertainties of federal policies. Obama was very bad at managing expectations which stunted growth.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 8, 2016
@terrimore1 Screw all you brainless Trump cultists. You can always vote for Hillary--you were supporting her policies anyway.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 8, 2016
@Wildwildquest You are in a state of denial if you think The Orange Fascist has a snowball's chance in hell.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 8, 2016
@AJ_Grasso @BreitbartNews No, Drudge, Breitbart, and others have been championing The Orange Fascist, who doesn't have a chance.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 8, 2016
We now see Trump's world caving in on him. An incumbent Senator (Kirk) refuses to vote for him,Hugh Hewitt has called on the RNC to dump him— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 8, 2016
The 1 Congressman Trump endorsed just lost big time.Trump has no coattails. If he heads the ticket,you could have Clinton and a Dem majority— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 8, 2016
I may sound like a crank on Trump, but I'm absolutely convinced he would be the worst POTUS. Trumpkins are screwing with our future— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 8, 2016
Running for POTUS is no game. Trump policies could accelerate America's downfall. I don't give a damn about the alt-right dingbats.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 8, 2016
@Wildwildques Trump has NO chance. I would vote for Clinton if that's what it took to stop him, and I can't stand Clinton.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 8, 2016
@RedState You are really stretching to read anything might happen beween now and the convention. I mean, God might srike him dead, but.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 8, 2016
@KnucklDraginSam @AJ_Grasso @BreitbartNews Yeah, everyone knows the Great Wall of China never worker, this is a retarded boondoggle.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 8, 2016
@seanhannity @DonaldJTrumpJr Let's talk about how Hilllary Clinton beat Trump in total votes cast. Let's talk about only 40% of GOP votes.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 9, 2016
@BillZeiser @Trumpbart When Trump bribed Clinton, he was in his 50's. Trump voted for Obama. Trump is still promoting national healthcare.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 9, 2016
@BillZeiser @Trumpbart Which one are you talking about? We're guaranteed a bad one either way. But Clinton is not an authoritarian.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 9, 2016
@BillZeiser @Trumpbart No, it's not. The Orange Son of a Bitch has threatened a federal judge, he has threatened to violate the Geneva Conv.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 9, 2016
@BillZeiser @Trumpbart The substantive difference is that Hillary has substance and Trump is a pandering piece of populist shit.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 9, 2016
@BillZeiser @Trumpbart I'm a pro-liberty conservative. I don't read NYT.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 9, 2016
I had to spend deleting nastier reply tweets, although it seemed the reply tweets were drawing a lot of impressions. Confusing Twitter stats— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 9, 2016
The reason I tend to be more direct with Trump cultists is because Trump has tried to make his fight against PC part of his campaign.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 9, 2016
@Gavin_McInnes You know, the fascist hypocrite Trump talks a lot about libel laws. But he suggests that the Latino judge is against him.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 9, 2016
We'll see whether Clinton's numbers bounce up now Sanders has been mathematically eliminated. But Sanders has refused to withdraw.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 9, 2016
Nothing forrmal is expected from Obama until after next Tuesday's DC primary, where Clinton is a heavy favorite. But he will endorse soon.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 9, 2016
I got hit with a Twitter storm by a Trumpkin earlier tonight. It's like I was still responding to the first nonsensical tweet & he posted 4.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 9, 2016
I'm finding that my patience is wearing thin. Early today Barbara Bush was trending, and so I was just trying to get the flow of the trend.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 9, 2016
A young woman had apparently met Mrs. Bush, and Mrs. Bush asked the jobless lady what she did for a living. The lady wished she had bashed W— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 9, 2016
I don't think the Dems ever really stopped bashing George W. after the disputed Florida vote. But it really escalated around 2006 on.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 9, 2016
Obama constantly bashed Bush during the first several years of his Presidency. Bush left the WH 7.5 yrs ago. I have been critical of Bush.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 9, 2016
But as bad as Bush was, Gore and Kerry would have been far worse, and Bush never had the hand Obama held with the 111th Congress.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 9, 2016
I remember when Bush bragged about historically high home ownership percentage--at a time we had slow job/income growth.The new buyers risky— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 9, 2016
DEAD WRONG: Happiness and Material Well-BeingI knew when I started seeing get-rich-by-flipping-condos infomercials around 2005/6 this was going to end badly. We just didn't know when.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 9, 2016
