I would supply the rope!

And then you complain about the “tone” of liberals. I guess mean spirited snark is fine as long as it’s you saying it.

Well, I know many business people in CA, too, who are doing just fine. Doctors, lawyers, insurance, retail, entertainment – it’s not the federal gov’t that has the red tape. It’s the *state* of CA, which is thriving economically & came out of the Bush recession like gangbusters, and local *city* ordinances that can make things a lot more difficult for small businesses than the federal gov’t.

Take away the politics to be fair, wasnt she just so smart? I didnt know half of what she was involved in. And, is it just a coincidence that she is an avocado farmer and her backdrop was avocado green? Cool stuff.

It goes to show you, what we see from an actor on screen is just a portion of who he or she is.

I know Nikki, ignorance runs wild when it come to politics and religion. I am open minded with both. I tend to lean toward Donald BECAUSE Hillary is the devil without a disguise! Perhaps if there was a third party involved here it may sway me but Mr. Trump is the best choice we have.

Well, I am not a liberal but I intelligent and sane enough to be very afraid of Donald Trump. He sounds remarkably like Hitler and his hate filled speeches are all predicated upon shrill negativity with no facts to back up his hate filled rhetoric.
I wish this former soap star no ill will, but it’s funny that Trump was boasting about how he would have nothing but winners and big stars speaking at his convention. Instead we get Scott Baio and this actress whom no one has ever heard of.

BINGO!

Problem is, no one knows who she is. KB starred in a couple of soaps a about a hundred years ago so honestly, it doesn’t matter what this nobody has to say. Aside from her, he was only able to get two other has beens–Chachi and that missing link who played Jagger wayyyyyy back in the early 90’s.
And yes, Trump garners a lot of rage and perhaps we need to look at why that is–he attacked and ridiculed a physically disabled reporter, he’s called immigrants a bunch rapists and killers,he’s made insanely sexist misogynistic comments, and he speaks of wanting to build walls instead of bridges. Moreover, he doesn’t believe in climate change which is the real issue at hand because it negates all the other issues. If our earth is allowed to be destroyed by man, then issues like fracking, Planned Parenthood, the economy, immigration, gun control, jobs health insurance, etc, are all null and void. He’s a demi-God, an abomination.

In short, he’s an embarrassment to our country. How did he make it this far? Americans cannot be this stupid. And no, I cannot stand Hillary Clinton either. I hate that it has come down to these two crooks–I hate this presidential election with the heat of a thousand suns,

Back to KM–honestly, does anyone know who she is who did not watch Y&R way back when? It doesn’t matter what the hell she has to say about anything.

Thank you, Patrick.

Well said Patrick!

Also when I see him standing next to his wife, it looks like father & daughter. He should be on Y&R! LOL

That is not true. One of the very popular actress from B & B was on her twitter last night doing nothing but making fun of D.T. One of the male actors on Y & R seems 2 think D.T. is a racist and against gay people and he loves H.C. who got most of her campaign money from terrorist countries who are known to hang.kill and torture gay people. As a matter of fact most soap opera people are Liberal.

Definitely!

@Patrick….”What boggles the mind…is that women….do not see another woman as ….capable? (Or, rather, in my own estimation, worthy of being elected to the highest office in the land?) Speaking very much as a female, please allow me the privilege of offering my opposing view. The person in question is someone with whom I have absolutely nothing in common–not the least of which is ideological, although taste in fashion is a very close second—despite what one may assume is an identical XX chromosomal one, and yet, simply because I am of that fairer sex, it is implied–even expected—that I should applaud and support someone of the same gender, regardless of any or all other considerations???? That notion—often referred to as “identity politics”— is, at best, overly simplistic and, at worst, more than a bit condescending and totally anathema to my way of thinking. Believe me, I’m not taking specific issue with you, Patrick, I’m just explaining WHY this presumptuous tendency to assign people to certain groups based upon mostly demographical criteria and then demand they act accordingly ain’t always necessarily the way it is…for those amenable to this approach, and who willingly choose to participate along those lines, that is fine. But some of us have a different means of defining ourselves, and do not wish to be boxed in by such superficial constraints. I am an individual first, and I also look upon everyone else in that manner. I take each person—whether in life, business, politics, and yes, even here at MFSoaps—as I find them and base my opinion of them according to that, not because they match a list of supposedly preordained criteria. If I like someone who posts here, it may be because of their wit, personality or talent…there is something in them that garners my admiration and respect, maybe even fosters a feeling of kinship, and that will certainly not be due to the fact they are, first and foremost, male or female, or seem to initially fit other types of physical descriptions or traits, real or imagined…..I either respond favorably or not so favorably to them for their own unique qualities and the manner in which they present themselves…not as easy to divine online as in person, to be sure, but how many times have we said here we feel like we know each other just by our words and how they are expressed?…To further illustrate, I will offer a more politically germane example to you in the form of Dr. Ben Carson….on paper we could not be more dissimilar as to age, sex, race, profession, religious denomination, etc…..yet this is a man who gave the most marvelous speech at the GOP convention on a subject about which I am totally passionate: How political correctness is destroying our free speech rights. As I listened to the good doctor’s wise warnings regarding this vitally important issue, I felt as if he were speaking not just to me, but for me…..in terms of this topic, we were… Read more »

Intelligent woman vote for who we think will take our country in the right direction. We do not vote for someone based on religion, gender, or race. There will be a day that our president will be female. The only plus for Hillary is that our White House will become a soap opera again with Bill on the loose around the young interns!

Ash, Trump is not hard up for anything.
He is doing just fine.

The worst mayor NYC ever had, you mean. Just because he says he was the best doesn’t make it so.

Well the good thing is I don’t know. They can back whoever they want. But the smart thing to do if you don’t want to offend viewers and listeners is keep your opinions private.. Look what happened to the Dixie Chicks.

Oh damn, Joel! That means I have to boycott any movies or TV projects which feature Gary Busey, Stephen Baldwin, Scott Baio and Antonio Sabato Junior!
What a HUGE loss!

Mgb, if you had read my post closely, I never said her business WASN’T a small one; I merely asked whether or not her employees received proper benefits. And the only businesses that “suffer” are those exceeding 250 workers and exceed a healthy income threshold. It’s the people that work for companies who AREN’T willing to treat employees fairly that suffer. Hopefully Ms. Brown is not among those. As for your “then what are you” remark, that sounded as if I’d heard it before. ..oh yeah, on the playground in the first grade.

Regardless of whether an avocado farm is a small business or not, KB is fooling herself if she actually thinks Trump is supportive of the small business owner.
MGB, Trump is that mogul who drives Mom and Pop from their businesses.
I don’t understand why folks think Trump is like them and an their side.
He would be the worst thing for our economy and he has numerous bankruptcies to prove it. Moreover, he bilked poor folks trying to better themselves out of thousands upon thousands of dollars for his fraudulent Trump University. He is not Everyman. He’s not even on Everyman’s side.

was that page 3 of the democratic talking points?

why cant you believe Kimberlin Brown. Why do you think she has ulterior motices, and Hillary doesn’t?

Trump’s economic policies help small businesses AND big businesses by freeing them of burdensome regulations written by bureaucrats with no experience in running a business and meeting a payroll,In what way does Trump’s business harm or destroy mom and pop businesses?He is a developer of hotels,golf courses,residential and other large projects which create good paying jobs and in no way drives others out of business.As to your claim that Trump bilked ‘poor folks” out of thousands you base this I assume on the news reports of the frivolous Trump U lawsuit that
should have been dismissed by summary judgment long ago for lack of merit.Why are you and others turning this page which is devoted to soap operas into a repository for ignorant hateful political diatribes.Let this site be for soaps.Kimberlin Brown is an industrious and intelligent woman who is entitled to support the candidate of her choice,as are you.She addressed a major party convention and Michael Fairman let us-the soap fans- know that a former soap actress had that honor.Now let’s get back to using this site for soap chat and commentary and leave the nasty hateful comments to the sewer known as twitter.

Your right Soaphound however what I did was made a list and titled it DUMMIES and I wont bother with anyone on that list in the future because weather or not they agree or disagree on a soap or actor/actress they will get the same respect they have shown.

Sometimes actors are only palatable due to a good writer! When they are themselves one is left to realize how lacking they are in gray matter! And when the image is tarnished by stupidity one loses to desire to watch them perform again.

I would no longer enjoy watching this woman in any capacity after seeing who she really is.

I don’t know but I call the ex mayor of New York Rudy J. someone of value.

Rudy J is one of the most hated mayors of all time. He stepped up to the plate during 9/11 but before and after, he was an inept idiot with a terrible overbite.
Moreover, he appears to be a racist–if you recall, he was part of that idiotic birther movement.
Oh wait, so was Donald Trump. In fact, he was its founding father

who is saying she cannot speak her mind? No one. In return, folks get to utilize their first amendment rights and voice their distaste for her endorsement speech.

But FIRST she needs to HAVE a mind to speak. Avacados aren’t enough.

@Harry….I totally agree with you in that I also despise political stereotyping, which is one of the very subjects I tried in my own way to address here, but even when someone like yourself is high-minded enough to try to avoid such pitfalls, it still can happen. To wit, I chuckle to this day over your description of “Mayor Lomax the Second” a few months back during the “Breastfeeding Brouhaha.” Forgive my paraphrasing, but I vividly recall you remarked that she certainly “looked” like a liberal….or something close to that effect! (And yes, you were unmistakably correct….I thought the same thing, but didn’t dare suggest it at the time!)

Bravo! Could you get a more perfect Trump fan than “Sheila”?
He IS her without a filter!

Okay, Nikki, just so I understand your request clearly. You want the posts with which you disagree to be removed while Michale Fairman and his board monitors keeps the posts with which you do agree?
Also, you rightfully maintain that this former soap actress has a right to voice her opinion and you cite the first amendment which is the freedom of speech to validate your assertion.
However, when it comes to opinions you do not care for suddenly you are dismissing the first amendment despite the fact that you have been copiously asserting that very right on this very site.
Seems to me, Nikki, that you’re very much like Mr Trump. In other words, you can dish it out but you cannot take it.

Nikki – I know that you disagree, but I am Catholic and have several highly educated Jewish friends who all think Trump is Hitler 2.0.

I agree … can we please get back to discussing our soap operas.

So supporting a candidate and/or party who is actively working to repeal a woman’s right to choose and pass amendments to allow discrimination against gay citizens/repeal same sex marriage is the answer? A vote like that increases the chances that women and homosexuals in our country are discriminated against like they are in other parts of the world and doesn’t seem like a very good argument to me…

Alan, you ROCK!

Boes, I do not know you but I love you.

I expect nothing less from a Democrat! Misinformed as usual and letting CNN do their thinking.

Lol! She’ll wipe the floor with her, CONCHY. That is for sure!
