Really?

Former Governor Eric Greitens (r) [2016 file photo].

Eric Greitens @EricGreitens
In the past, we’ve had leaders who wanted to give people a safe space to loot and to burn.

When I was Governor, we were clear that if someone looted, or burned, the only safe space they were going to have was in a jail cell.

On his anniversary.

As usual, the responses are priceless.

[….]No one cares what you think, you lying, pathetic, law breaking, racist, sexual assaulting troll.[….]

When you were governor, you just tied up and blackmailed your mistresses.[….]

You’re irrelevant. Be quiet.

OMG. The have the #dirtymoney #tieherup #stealfromcharity disgraced ex governor on giving advice as to deal with violence? The world is upside down

I had forgotten all about you. No one cares about your opinion

Get back under your rock.

Tell us again, Eric, what else happened when you were Governor. For instance, why you’re NOT Governor. We’ll wait.

Are you still trying to be relevant?

Did you construct jails out of duct tape? Did you tie anyone up?

And your safe word was…?

Being here in Missouri really worked out for you, eh?

Oh, please, for the love of all that is holy, go away.

– A Missouri citizen that didn’t forget

You forfeited by quitting two years ago today, sexual predator. Now bugger off.

Didnt you leave in disgrace? Stay gone

Interesting. Why did you stop being Governor again?

Aren’t you the guy who got run out of office in disgrace?? Get lost, punk.

A safe space like your basement?

You are a terrible human being. Stand down. Stop embarrassing our state any more!

“When” you were Governor. How did that end?

There’s a reason you don’t work there anymore.

Oh man you should really sit everything out not just this situation but everything. You must be enjoying the masks … Oh I’m sorry, it was blindfolds wasn’t it?

@FoxNews has no standards at all.

Your basement doesn’t count as a safe space.

You resigned in shame! Now go away!

You’re an idiot

You might want to sit this one out, asshole.

It’s been ten years since the first post.

We don’t have the time this year to stage a commemorative photo realization. We have a bus to catch so we can cover the KXL protest march in Lincoln, Nebraska later today.

The content beast is ever present.

Happy birthday to us! Our first post on August 6, 2007 (left) and our latest post (right).

Happy birthday to us! Our first post on August 6, 2007 (left) and our latest post (right).

It’s been nine years since Show Me Progress came to life. Well, okay, nine years and a few days. We almost forgot. That tends to happen with anniversaries during a presidential election year.

As near as we can tell (through two platforms) that’s 10,855 posts, give or take a few, and 1,806,921 page views over those nine years. And we’re still here.

What a ride….

We're still here

We started at this blogtopia (y, sctp!) thing three years ago. And, yes, we’re still here.

A photo of candles and cake as an illustration of our celebration at reaching another milestone is becoming a tradition here at Show Me Progress corporate headquarters. Actually, it’s just an excuse to get the cake and eat it after the photo shoot – along with the ice cream thawing off camera.
