Gardening Grandma - PLEASE review the name calling rule. You continue to call trump names that are against the CoC and I'm about ready to start deleting the posts outright instead of giving you the chance to correct them. I'm sure some pretty good posts are going to be lost because of it.
So, you may call him 45. But you may NOT add disparaging words along with it.

Why the hell can't we talk about a *human being* who died without people bitching about it? Yeah he was a politician, but his death is not political, white house stupidity not withstanding.

I'd like to know how OC knows for a fact that all those Hispanics are, in fact, illegal. Do the wear signs, or are you assuming?

Depending on the number of people in the rural areas, could the County arrange to transport those to the polling places? This is not a large county. As a comparison Maricopa Co. AZ. where several posters live is larger than Israel! the country!
I'm sure they *could*, but that doesn't mean they will! So, effectively, the GOP was planning on winning through dirty tactics. Really, that kind of BS ought to be illegal (closing polling places for trumped up reasons, pun intended). Clearly, they just thought everyone would just say 'oh, ok' and be done with it. SO GLAD that did not happen.

jkapp - your post is against our COC for a couple of different reasons. First and foremost is copyright infringement. You didn't do a strict word for word copy and paste, but it is entirely too close to the original. Second is the "wall of text " rule. You are allowed to post a short snippet and the source link only. Please edit your post accordingly. ~ moon 1) that was a short snippet - look a the original article, it has at least ten times the data that was copied.
2) if I had copied it as a word for word paste, THEN it would have been a wall 3) By saying it is too long kind of reinforces the point i was trying to make, I think
No, a short snippet is 5 lines or so. And I did look at the original article. That's how I knew you didn't do a full copy/ paste. Nonetheless, it was a huge amount and similar enough to cause copyright concerns.

I don't doubt you are right. But when you then TAKE THAT CHILD away from their only source of comfort, you are making it worse!

Taking your children to another country and asking for asylum does NOT (I repeat NOT) constitute breaking another country's laws. You may want to start reading up a little on the actual laws involved before making such blanket statements Crossing the border illegally and yelling asylum doesn't constitute asylum either. We have rules and laws follow them. If you don't it's the parents fault after that, if they really care do things the correct way. Besides thr kids are fed receive medical attention if it's in locked area don't care they are illegal also. so giving kids psychotropic meds w/o the parents' permission is "receiving medical attention" and ok by you?

I somewhat feel this is comparing apples to oranges too, in that children living in cars were not forcibly removed from their parents and then (in too many cases) refused reunification.
Do I wish that there were no people - especially kids - living in cars? You bet. But, they weren't stolen from their parents. That's the key, to me.

Because that's not what he did. Believe me, enough dumb things come out of his mouth without people looking for them. If you don't wish for alternative scenarios to be presented other than the cluster fuck of the hysterics around here, just say so. I won't post anymore. If the truth or possible truths are contradictory to how you wish this board to be run - you know - the exchange of ideas - just say so. I'll be glad to stop posting. Because...I have to tell you....it's pretty much already there.
You know me. If I think something is dumb or wrong, I say so. I've done so plenty of times. But I won't just join the hair-on-fire group just to fit in. And? I never thought you'd want that.
In fact, you know what? I'll disinvite myself. Thanks for the impetus.
But it *is* what he did. He made no qualifying statements whatsoever. There was no basis to infer that he must have meant it referred to writing checks. He made a point blank statement of "You need id to buy groceries" full stop. I have to agree with others that wonder how the hell he'd even know what you need when you buy groceries because I can't believe he's ever set foot in a grocery store. he has minions for that.
And for the record, I am not attacking you, personally, GEL. I just don't happen to agree with the hypothesis.

So he's right. If you want to buy groceries (and you are paying by check), you have to have a picture ID. If you want to buy anything (by check), you need a picture ID. No. He did not specifically say "by check" but people with more than half a brain and people who aren't willing to yell "fire" in a crowded theatre know what was meant.
Wow. This one is a biggie! Stop the presses!
lol Why can't it just be said that he made *another* stupid comment that proves (yet again) that he just does.not.think before opening his mouth, instead of feeling compelled to make excuses for his idiocy?

I do kindle unlimited too. Every month, as part of Kindle First (now First Reads, I think) you get a free download. Choose 1 of 6 books, various genres. Plus, there is a HUGE selection of Kindle unlimited books you can download and read for free. Limit is ten of those in your "library". You return them when you're done, like a library, but no due date.
Thanks for the reminder. I haven't taken advantage of any of the First Reads lately. Looking at the selection now. Has anyone read any of this month's??
I don't have Unlimited, so I don't get those.
I read The Killer's Mind out of the July choices and enjoyed it.

First Reads requires you to have Prime membership and Unlimited has it's own separate fee, which is fine but something else to add to the list of "bills". Yes, that's true. But I read a lot and don't re-read the books later, so buying them just isn't something I like to do, unless that is the *only* way to get a book I really want to read.

Exactly. His hand was palm out. Normal hand position, unless you're planning on deliberately grabbing someone's ass like he did, is palm facing the body. If it had been accidental, it would have been the BACK of his hand touching. Please just stop, MU, before I stop having any sympathy for you whatsoever.

Time for the MuscleUp to leave for the day. I feel like everyone is attacking me. Well maybe you should stop acting like a poorly mannered neanderthal. You, and you alone, control your response to a woman's style of dress and behavior. No one forces a man to do anything. It's a choice men make, often on their own and w/o permission. And it's bullshit.

I don't know and I don't care. It's none of my business. I'm sure my dad is, but again, none of my business. I not only don't care, but also really can't stand when people brag about being a "have". So effing what. Doesn't make you better than anyone else.
BTW, this stems from childhood when we had other kids in the 'hood who acted like they were too good for others due to their parents' wealth.

dezii, the photo in the OP isn't allowed, which I told Cheesy. Therefore, a quote of it is also not good.

Cheesy FL-Vol, even though this is a magazine cover, it's still photoshopped, so it's not allowed. I have had others ask to post similar things and have had to tell them no for the same reason. You can link to it, but not actually have it posted. Sorry

Did the President of the United States Publicly on the international world stage take the word of Russia vs the word of all his intelligence community : CIA, FBI, NASA, etc. And to add insult to injury Putin offered to help us with our cyber security problems lol! Did that really just happened? That is like letting your uncle that was caught with child pornography babysit your kids? You cannot write this! This is our new reality! It's not embarrassing that Trump doesn't trust our intelligence and law enforcement agencies. It's embarrassing that they are so untrustworthy. Paul, are you seriously going to try and make us believe that every US intelligence agency out there is wrong? That the Russians did not involve themselves in our election?

No one understands Shakespeare, not into Keats, and couldn't care less about JK Rowling. That's just me, because I'm not into any of them.
I don't care if it's made-up babble. It sounds funny, and it's different from our usual. If we want to be 'low class' - which is what I infer you're thinking - let us.

chiver78, I'm on chat with them now. Hoping they will honor the price too. Was a lightning deal, and while it's not a huge discount, it's the principal of it.
