    That part's actually not the case.

    Regardless, I think the point is made. Thanks, SJ.com friends.

    And @typefitter, what is funny about this is that me, the "troll," is firmly on your side of the political aisle.

    I really don't know what your gripe with me has always been, other than the fact that I once thought "Esquire" shoddily attributed a scene in a narrative journalism piece (even the author agreed with me, in hindsight), and you took it personally.

    No one had any sympathy when Obama's drone killed her then 14-year-old brother, who was also an American citizen.

    But now folks are going to pretend to care about her? Really?

    Same standard, right?

    You should read "The Art of the Deal" or take classes at Trump U (they had a great National Signing Day class, by the way), so you too can become the bestest negotiator on the planet.

    But she had a pretty red bow in her hair?

    We can change that for the book/movie.

    Duck will end up being a composite character anyway. I'm sure they'll give him a smoking hot wife though.

    If we're still making Mad Men references here, Duck jerked Peggy around and released Chauncey the Dog to fend for himself in Manhattan. He doesn't deserve a tight little package.

    Hey, I didn't have a two wheeler. Just a bag and a clipboard. But, I'm not good enough to ride the passenger elevators with their fancy lawyers?

    That's discrimination.

    Lots of folks are enjoying the irony of Trump hailing the contributions of Frederick Douglass - a man who escaped slavery by using somebody else's ID. Good thing the free states didn't employ extreme vetting back then.

    Yes, same standard. Unfortunately, being the daughter of a terrorist put her in harm's way and she was accidentally killed. That in itself doesn't necessarily mean the operation was flawed or even a bad decision.
