I agree with when the mission is complete things will settle down. What do you think is worse? The only noticeable thing I see is gas prices, and to this point still lower than last 4 years.

I don't believe we were this bad off. However, I do believe the sooner we bring our troops home things may stabilize a little.

One was done on purpose and the other is temporary! No debate there!

I voted in the primary with just an ID!

I saw this. Interesting!

Seeing one character defending Biden but now on here every day crying about gas prices…..so hypocritical. Lmao.

He didn’t have much to complain about when Biden was in office, I guess. 😂🤣😂

LOL - so it is your stance that Republicans are making it to where no one can vote with just their photo id? After the save act passes, if you are registered to vote, your DL will be fine to vote. Registering to vote, you will need your birth certificate along with you DL......BTW - when my Son got his first got his drivers license, he needed his birth certificate..... and this may come as a shock to you, but I was able to provide it and we made just one trip.

[email protected] Tom Halliburton’s Track Volume 38, Number 7 April means elimination time for most area track and field athletes because only the best of the best advance to the regional and state meets on the warm weekends of May. While there are some events on this week’s schedule, the primary focus of these athletes – wherever they are – needs to be on next week’s district championships and maintaining sharp physical shape and proper rest for those events. A district meet is becoming more and more of a tuneup in its own right because the top four finishers in an event are permitted to advance to the following week’s area meet. Our list of Golden Triangle-area leaders experienced a large amount of change following last week’s extremely busy agenda. Silsbee did more than host a meet. The Lady Tigers took over the leader’s spots in the girls 4x1 and 4x2 exchanges. One of those relay members, Madison Hill, captured the top performance to date in the triple jump by practically reaching 37 feet. Before leaving the Silsbee meet, we need to send a big thank you to Cayla Ford for assisting me on Monday with providing the results. I regret that I had to miss last week’s good area meets due to a groin injury which required quite a bit of treatment as well as an ultrasound on Thursday. That should not sideline my presence at numerous district meets but beware that potential rain episodes often alter those district championship schedules. Before we visit last week’s individual stuff, let’s recognize LC-M’s girls and Nederland’s boys for capturing team titles at Silsbee. Fourteen new area-best numbers – 11 girls events and three boys – were recorded at the Tiger Relays. Senior Dinah Tippins of LC-M equaled the previous best in the girls 100 meters with a 12.08. Her teammates Janet Le and Paisley Angelle owned sole possession of the lead in the pole vault and the 300-meter hurdles with their Silsbee outings. The boys and girls leaders in the shot put throw improved their previous area best lengths. That’s good work by Lumberton’s Madagyn Boudoin and PN-G’s Ace Reeves. Memorial’s Titan Relays contained plenty of sturdy competition for nearby schools from outside visitors around Houston. The discus throw produced two near area best numbers. Congratulations to Port Arthur’s Tatiyana Crain and West Brook’s Joseph Bowser. Titans senior Matthew Christian duplicated the area’s fastest open-quarter time in 48.93, while sophomore sprinter Jalexis Neal clocked a 24.43 in the girls 200 meters.

Prices are still high, gas is high because if Iran issue. I think the gas is temporary. I and my family and friends are doing ok - if I had to complain about anything, it would be increasing Property taxes and the rising cost of insurance, both home and vehicle. That has been going on long before Trump. I could compare to the previous administrations 4 years.....but I don't believe there is a need.

46thand47thsucks……hunterslaptop under one of his several identities. I didn’t see CB in there either.

And it’s crazy to look at those old posts and see who all isn’t coming here anymore.

Two things… if Biden caused them in ‘22, then Trump is causing them in 2025. They’re either responsible or not. In 2020 the pandemic shuttered the economy and demand for fuel dropped, so did the prices. By 2022, the massive federal dumping of cash into the economy created demand as the economy roared back to life… prices rose as fuel became more scarce. Fuel prices were good, but the war in Iran has destabilized supply and driven prices upwards. Sometimes there’s more credit and blame passed around than there ought to be. For reference, the Keystone pipeline was designed to move 830,000 barrels of oil per day down from Canada. The shutdown of Hormuz is stopping 20 million barrels of oil per day from leaving the Middle East. Prices weren’t high because Biden canceled the Keystone pipeline.

Gas $3.85 regular unleaded.

Are you still believing late spring early summer?

You’re comparing the executions of the innocent to the horribly guilty. Unbelievable. Also, marriage is between “A” man and “A” woman, not numerically. It’s to clarify for those who don’t know the difference. Good try, but silly as usual.

No, you won’t, my man. Go find out the hard way. There’s always that one guy who knows it all and refuses to listen. And those guys end up crying the loudest when the consequences of their own deliberate ignorance of the facts come back around. Have fun with that.

Brother… I just ask for consistency. I’m opposed to murder. I believe that abortion is immoral and wrong, and I believe that capital punishment is immoral, too. I believe that the only acceptable reason to take a human life is in defense of one’s own. But it’s a little disingenuous to be opposed to murder in one situation but support it in the other. Kinda like when someone says that marriage is between one and one woman, but have a couple of divorces in their past. I guess that they meant one woman and one man at a time.

How do think the economy is doing?

I can honestly say the economy was better under Biden as of today. [Hidden Content]

Sure will make what year to choose to be a "free agent" very interesting. Also, sit back and wait for the other senators to add amendments until we are right back where we started.

Hmmmm

Exactly ….it is not that hard

They know….but it’s all they got. The search feature on this forum can be pretty interesting…..
