  1. Gee, I don't know Tibsy, I wouldn't think the evangelicals will be jumping up and down to vote for a guy that just outed himself by declaring that Neil Smith was an old butt buddy of his. Sounds more like something he should have said in front of the Rump Ranger Club.
  2. Defied the constitution? Says who?
  3. What slavery? What proof do they have that there ever was slavery? Reparations for what?
  4. So BillSlime, you are comparing the statue of Saddam Hussein to just what other statues here? Who were the oppressive figures here? Washington? Lincoln? Grant? Jefferson? Frances Scott Key? Mattias Baldwin? BTW, where the ***** is the link for your above quote?
  5. I didn't see this either. Did it come from OTW? Regardless, it was an excellent OP.
  6. So, if I as a Caucasian moved to Kenya I couldn't be a racist?
  7. Does anyone here think taking money from the police and throwing it at education will actually improve education? Watcha think @Penfield45?
  8. From social media. Something to think about: For a small amount of perspective at this moment, imagine you were born in 1900. When you are 14, World War I starts, and ends on your 18th birthday with 22 million people killed. Later in the year, a Spanish Flu epidemic hits the planet and runs until you are 20. Fifty million people die from it in those two years. Yes, 50 million. When you're 29, the Great Depression begins. Unemployment hits 25%, global GDP drops 27%. That runs until you are 33. The country nearly collapses along with the world economy. When you turn 39, World War II starts. You aren’t even over the hill yet. When you're 41, the United States is fully pulled into WWII. Between your 39th and 45th birthday, 75 million people perish in the war and the Holocaust kills six million. At 52, the Korean War starts and five million perish. At 64 the Vietnam War begins, and it doesn’t end for many years. Four million people die in that conflict. Approaching your 62nd birthday you have the Cuban Missile Crisis, a tipping point in the Cold War. Life on our planet, as we know it, could well have ended. Great leaders prevented that from happening. As you turn 75, the Vietnam War finally ends. Think of everyone on the planet born in 1900. How do you survive all of that? A kid in 1985 didn’t think their 85 year old grandparent understood how hard school was. Yet those grandparents (and now great grandparents) survived through everything listed above. Perspective is an amazing art. Let’s try and keep things in perspective. Let’s be smart, help each other out, and we will get through all of this. In the history of the world, there has never been a storm that lasted. This too, shall pass.
  9. Why would it take a player to do it? Afraid to do it yourself?
  10. Thank God for Trump and his strong encouragement to the states to stop the spread by shutting down. Too bad some governors can't read and thought the CDC recommended returning infected people to nursing homes.
  11. Voting online at this point in time is an idiotic idea. It needs to be segmented and not subject to hacking.
  12. Oh, but @Paulusabove says there is no evidence of voter fraud.
  13. You are truly ignorant and ill informed. Trump stopped travel from China on 1-31-20 and Europe on 3-13-20. In both cases liberals here in the USA spoke loudly against doing so. China and the WHO both deliberately lied to us and China specifically promoted the spread of the virus by letting its citizens travel around the world while prohibiting them from traveling within China. Normally 20,000 people travel from China to the U.S. per day. Can you understand the impact of that? How about China keeping the seriousness of the virus under wraps while they bought up all of the world's spare protective equipment?
  14. Might the discussion regarding making DC a state differ somewhat with the prerequisites to making a different area a state? After all, DC was specifically made into a federal enclave.
  15. Seriously? Biden has succumbed to every crazy idea from the Left. https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2019/06/27/all_dem_candidates_raise_hand_when_asked_if_illegal_immigrants_should_get_health_care_coverage_at_debate.html#!
  16. Seems like there were early travel bans from China and Europe in which Trump was heavily criticized for by the likes of Biden and the democrat leadership. Travel from China was cut off before the WHO even admitted that the virus could be passed from human to human. Not one person who needed a ventilator was denied one. We are providing the world with ventilators. There are no open requests to the feds for any protective equipment as of yesterday.
  17. You are wrong. Trump jumped all over Governor Kemp of Georgia for opening up Beauty Salons and other close contact retail stores in what Trump thought was too early. You're pretty cocky for someone so ill informed.
  18. Oh, I agree but a counter to the dems unfairness claims is to give the states most of their citizens back and leave a smaller District.
  19. That falls in line with what I meant. More conservative government.
  20. Shrink the federal part of DC and give lands back to both states.
  21. BREAKING NEWS: Posting the same video in most of the threads on the front page is not using humor. Humor makes people laugh or at least grin. What you are doing is wasting people's time. When you post, the front page turns that thread into bold print, indicating that I haven't read it. When you post the same thing in 8-10 different threads I might open them all and then find out that the only new post in each thread is your video that you are posting nearly everywhere. Have some consideration for other people.
  22. He did. His task force worked with the states on a daily basis. The task force couldn't demand but they could advise and that's what they did.
  23. Clown. You are muddying up the board and seem to somehow get pleasure out of that. What you are doing is a clear violation of the TOS here. I am NOT going to turn you into a mod or do anything to get you banned. If a mod notices your horseshit disrespect for your fellow posters then I would assume you'll get a vacation though.
