Maturity begins when we're content to feel we're right about something,
without feeling the necessity to prove someone else is wrong.

Of course, the Trumpkins are upset; how dare he demand evidence behind Trump's paranoid suggestion he was wiretapped? #LindseyGraham— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) March 15, 2017
Trump's job approval (Gallup) has fallen under 40% again, despite a stock market rally, favorable job numbers and a GOP-controlled Congress.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) March 15, 2017
I'm waiting for Trump's "people have got to know whether or not their President is a liar" speech.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) March 15, 2017
@xmssweetnessx Trump has directly accused the Obama Administration. I don't think the Russians cared for Clinton's policies; but collusion?— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) March 16, 2017
Be clear: Trump's travel ban has never been serious public policy. There is no credible evidence Trump's targets are inadequately vetted.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) March 16, 2017
Accusing all Muslims of being Islamists is like accusing all Christians of being Westboro Baptists.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) March 16, 2017
Good for the judge recognizing the unconstitutionality of Trump's travel ban. Now about forcing nuns to subsidize birth control?— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) March 16, 2017
You had to depend on the USPS. Which is slower, more expensive and less reliable. #BeforeTheInternetExisted— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) March 16, 2017
You had to go to Vegas or Atlantic City to lose all your money. #BeforeTheInternetExisted— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) March 16, 2017

Bernie Sanders was limited to 23 underarm spray deodorants. Bernie, meet Amazon. #BeforeTheInternetExisted— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) March 16, 2017
Trump had to wait for the mailman to deliver his latest copy of Pravda. #BeforeTheInternetExisted— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) March 16, 2017
You had to go to the library, even go through interlibrary loans, to do serious college research. #BeforeTheInternetExisted— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) March 16, 2017
You had to listen to the radio and wait for your favorite song to play, even phone in song requests #BeforeTheInternetExisted— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) March 16, 2017
@Maj_variola Yeah, I used to have a cassette recorder near the radio, too. But sometimes they voiced over part of the song, tape breaks, etc— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) March 16, 2017
John McCain needs a timeout. "[Sen. Rand Paul] is now working for Vladimir Putin." I suggest that McCain set his eyes a little higher.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) March 16, 2017
McCain wants to make our NATO alliance even bigger with Montenegro. When Paul objected to his consent motion, McCain got cranky.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) March 16, 2017
The Fed Reserve is raising rates to 0.75-1%. Trump wishes that he had been paying off those kinds of rates during his six bankruptcies.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) March 16, 2017

Musical Interlude: My Favorite Vocalists
Peter Cetera, "One Good Woman". I'm going to start with my favorite Cetera tune because I don't want to wait: a perfect pop gem; wouldn't change a note. I could auto-repeat this tune for hours. It's like "Damn! I wish I could write songs like this!" One of the creative geniuses behind the supergroup Chicago. Next up: he's a guest vocalist on probably my favorite tune from the 1980's by a male vocalist who was a young sensation in the 1950's with songs like "Diana".
