Conroe won 9-0

there are multiple issues here with multiple solutions, and I can't say I know which is right. I was merely making a point.

faith doesn't have anything to do with it. I, along with anyone who has any common sense at all, can see what happens to the majority of unwanted babies born into bad situations to poor, single mothers. yes, there are certainly exceptions, but those are exceptions, not the rule. I work with this segment of the population. I see it every day. If a single 17-year-old has a kid, that kid is going straight onto Medicaid, and will be there for 18 years. The mother will also likely get on Medicaid, as there's a good chance she won't finish high school, and if she does, it's very unlikely she'll go to college . Now the taxpayers are footing the bill for two people on Medicaid, for WIC, for the hospital bill from having the kid, low-income housing, etc for TWO DECADES. And if we're REALLY lucky, the kid won't grow up and do the same thing. And regardless of what the far right says, the babies that they're marching to save turn into the kids that they gripe about supporting through tax dollars.

no, I'm 100% sure. no doubt there would've been plenty of them who would've made something of themselves, but many, many more, and their moms as well, would've gone straight onto the handout train and stayed there.

the majority of them would've ended up on handouts and costing us tax money, and you'd be griping about having to pay for their handouts instead of griping about them being aborted. Just saying...

HJ won 86-50

I went and watched this one tonight. My buddy Chris McDermand left HJ this year to help start up Huffman's first soccer team. They've played a very tough schedule against 5A and 6A programs and came into the game winless. I expected very little from Huffman, but they settled in and played HF very tough. After a good start by the horns, Huffman played them very evenly for the last 60 minutes or so. With the score tied at 0 with 15 seconds left, Huffman pushed up on an attack and left HF's forward alone at midfield. The horns cleared a ball out of the back and he was all by himself and ended up scoring a breakaway with 2 seconds left, winning the game for HF 1-0. It was an exciting end to a pretty good game. Congrats to the horns on the win, and to Huffman for giving them a very tough game. Coach McDermand has them going in the right direction, and I expect them to be reasonably competitive once they get into district and start playing teams from their own classification.

I've seen it on every major local news site. It hasn't exactly been swept under the rug. [Hidden Content] [Hidden Content] [Hidden Content]

If they go it's gonna be a long time before we have another democrat president.

Good to see the police feel like they finally have the backing to do their job and arrest these fools for committing a crime.

I don't know if I can remember a president taking this much action in the first couple of days of his presidency. I'm not sure if this is normal, but it's just bigger news because it's trump doing it? Or if he's doing something different. Maybe because there are a bunch of questionable lefty policies that need to be changed/repealed/reigned in? Anyone who's followed politics longer and more closely than me have any input?

Seems pretty silly to me

Wait, do you mean to tell me that the REPUBLICANS made an effort to try and make sure the DEMOCRAT president was only in office for one term? In other DUH news, the Steelers are about to try and realize their goal of making sure that Tom Brady doesn't go back to the super bowl. Also, ice is cold, and pizza is delicious.

I actually thought about this. I'd rather it be a 2nd rounder, though. JJ is a bigger question mark (but with more upside) than romo after a couple major back issues

He tried. I stated from the beginning that he would never be successful. I was proven correct, but I understand the fear that many gun owners felt with him in office. If he could've, he most certainly would've.

Oh, is THAT why the most celebrated moment of the Texans' season this year was Green Bay beating Dallas in a playoff game?

Never have you said a truer thing on this site. When Houston got bumped out of playoffs, I didn't see a word about it on facebook from dallas fans. When dallas lost, no fewer than 15 of my friends who are Texans fans got on and talked crap and rubbed it in. For me, Houston has always been a non-issue. I would pull for them because they were from texas, but not with much enthusiasm. Those days are gone. Thanks to all of the crap I've had to listen to for the last week I am now rooting against the Texans, and I look forward to gloating every time they lose next season (or anytime anyone wants to talk about their qb situation).

Pudge was my favorite player growing up. Glad to see him get this honor.

I think this should be more than enough to convince trump supporters to change their minds about him (sarcasm)

"President Obama authorized the mission." Well, at least not ALL of his last few weeks in office has been an unpatriotic, unmitigated disaster.

Good deal!

I'd say cnn and fox only. Both obviously lean way in opposite directions, but both generally post real stories. Their motives for publishing may be up for debate, but they generally talk about things that really happened.

Personally, I do, especially when someone posts it as fact. I suppose if you said "I read this, and it sounds like it may be true. what are your thoughts?", that might okay. It's funny how hot under the collar some get on here when big girl posts some article that's clearly a biased piece of propaganda from a blatantly far left "news outlet" and presents it as fact. Everyone piles on top of her, asking for "proof it's real", criticizing her for her source, and for not being able to "back up her argument." However when the roles are reversed, and a conservative does the exact same thing, then it's up to the person who disagrees or doesn't like the source to prove that it's not true. Personally, I don't like it from either side, and I would prefer that we were required to post from mainstream new sources only, simply because such a staggering number of the articles posted here from overly biased sources prove to be misleading, misrepresentative, or outright false with just a minimal amount of research. I'm much more conservative than I used to be, but i'll never be so conservative that i'll accept every article criticizing the left as fact without researching it, especially when a common sense look at the source would make it obvious that it's propaganda. And while Breitbart might be considered by some to be reputable, if they commonly repost from other sites like the one in this article, i'll never consider them to be credible.

the onus is on the person who posts the article to prove it's authenticity. it's funny how someone can post something on here from a questionable source, and then everyone slaps each other's back and agrees how great or awful it is (depending on who it criticizes), and when someone questions it, they're expected to prove it false, rather than the other way around. I had trouble reading the link that was posted in the breithbart article because of how poorly written it was, and how obvious of a hit piece it was, rather than an actual objective news story. I'm fairly certain a lot of folks on here just read the title to the threads, without ever reading the article, much less following the links to find the original story, and then form strong opinions on the issue. as for conservative view points, how about Texas' continued effort to purge the teaching of evolution in our schools?

well, it looked good at the time.
