baddog reacted to LumRaiderFan in George Will Leaves the Republican Party
I guess you have forgotten that the President with "kahunas" was preceded by a President that had none and left him with a mess that he dealt with, rather than run from.

So, you're trying to say that just because someone has video of an event, it doesn't always show what really happened? Amazing.

baddog reacted to tvc184 in George W. Bush Says 22 Words at Dallas Memorial, Crowd was SPEECHLESS
About half of his nearly 40 minutes was excellent. He should have stopped about the 20 minute mark.
Then he felt compelled to say.... we also know that for centuries of racial discrimination, subjugation, slavery, Jim Crow laws didn't simply vanish with lawful integration, MLK, etc. "We know that bias remains". Some have suffered more than others. None of us is entirely innocent. No institution is entirely immune and that includes the police. Whites and people of color look at law enforcement differently. If you are black you are more likely to get pulled over, if you are black you are more likely to and blah blah blah.
The president actually spoke eloquently and it could be argued that his statements were not off base. I only question making them as a funeral or memorial to officers that were killed in the line of duty and from some accounts, white officers being targeted protected black citizens who were protesting them and it might have cost one or more his life. At a memorial for those brave officers, having their family and close friends in attendance, it should have simply been left at that and not use such a tragedy as an opportunity for a political speech.
Obama's words were well chosen and I thought his delivery might have been the best that I have seen. I just think they were misplaced and should have been brought up in another venue. He basically praised the police officers that died and then admonished the rest of us for creating the situation. Again, he is entitled but it should have been left out of a memorial in my opinion.

I like George Bush and don't care if anybody likes me for it. Even if he does say nucular instead of nuclear. He's simply a good man.
Haven't seen Obama's speech. What was it about.......gun control?

Without tanks and troops, you sure wouldn't be here. Neither would I because I'm not blonde haired and blue eyed. People really don't realize how close he came.
Having a pair means that they would be smart enough to know that allowing 1,000,000 muslim refugees into this country, and none of them being "radicalized" or would become so, is about as stupid as anyone can s country is stupidly educated and brainwashed. We can't see the forest for the trees.

Pray tell- how do I "show " you that I consider the other side? Should I have "convicted" MIchael Brown in my mind before finding out that "hands up dont shoot" was a total hoax?

They better hope this doesn't bleed over into street patrols.....you know....battery was dead, got caught by a train, stopped to gas up....etc.

Kudos to the officers. They left a job making overtime pay out of principle. I support them. Heard from an unreliable source that all 24 fans applauded. Can't confirm that though.

I've noticed biracial couples. So what? I've also noticed tall ones with short ones, pretty ones with ugly ones, girls with girls. There is a lot of different couples out there, but the biracial ones are to go unnoticed?

That's me too. Lol
Why does my wife insist on telling me how to drive, especially slow down, and give directions, but when it is her turn to drive, first thing she does is ask, "Is this where I turn?"

Why do young folks at the Mall insist on walking six or eight across shoulder to shoulder and make most folks to move out of the way (unless you're a hard headed old man who'll walk thru them).

baddog reacted to 77 in Black Panther Leader Wants Country Within a Country
Saw a pudit today saying you cant judge blm by one guy and I agree but they seem to blame every person that ever looked at a Rebel flag when that kid killed those folks in that church. Kinda funny how the left likes to do that!

baddog reacted to Hagar in Who Is hillarious clinton?
Lt. Col. West (Ret), has more sense, character, and honor, than 99% of our politicians. What a great American. While progressive whites, and the majority of blacks, idolize Obama as an example of a great black American, they totally disregard this man who is the epitome of a great American, who happens to be black.

Yes, but it's what a lot of them think....."I had my blinker on!"
In Houston, they signal after they cut you off, or not at all.

For the life of me, I can't imagine any of us videoing the shooting death of our spouse. Being pulled over for a taillight that's out is cause for her to grab her phone and record the incident? She also doesn't sound very genuine in the aftermath, especially not even holding her little girl. I know people react differently to situations, but this is strange to me.
Also, if one has to stomp their foot for extra drama (why would she need more drama), I question the sincerity.
