  1. I have no clue. I think Oklahoma would join. Other than that...no clue. I think if a Pres Hillary succeeded in getting a gun confiscation law passed, then all of the red states would join.
  2. You also will not find the human mutilations exercised by various Native Americans on American soldiers and citizens.
  3. [Hidden Content] The State Department also doing the same thing.
  4. I would be thrilled (not up my leg) if he was President Of The Republic Of Texas or President Of The Confederacy or whatever new name we give the next greatest nation this world has ever seen.
  5. No matter who wins the Presidency, I am all in favor of secession (even more so if Hillary wins). This country, especially both coasts, has been moving to a socialist nation, expedited in the last 7 years. I fervently want to secede.
  6. And he doesn't say that all Democrats believe everything their media people tell them.
  7. There are a whole bunch of lies in that article. And I'm not sure why you posted it. It has nothing to do with my post. And I hope you wasn't trying to stereotype me and all Republicans. Oh wait, yes you were.
  8. Bill had a GOP Congress forcing him to control spending. Bill shut down the government twice trying to continue his wild spending. And he was impeached. As soon as Smitty gets back from his hunting trip with Dick Cheney I'm sure he'll post a link verifying these facts.
  9. Why don't you bury your head a little further in the sand...we can still see your toes.
  10. In which of the 57 states did they go hunting? If Bill is with them I'm sure they will be going to Orgy Island (and they won't need guns for that type of hunting). If Biden is with them, they would just be firing a couple of rounds off of the porch. If Hillary is with them, the second they fired a gun she would want to hold the gun manufacturer accountable. If Nancy Pelosi is with them you can bet that whatever they shoot will have been provided by her husband and paid for by tax-payer dollars at an inflated price. If Lois Lerner is with them you can bet that any game shot will constitute income violating any tax-exempt status and require extra IRS scrutiny.
  11. And liberals are always stereotyping white people, southern people, Christians...even more so than what minorities get. You included!
  12. And all liberals are pedophiles. I never met a liberal that I didn't see staring at a little boy at one time. Humm, I wonder what y'all were fantasying about. Keep throwing out the insults and I will reciprocate.
  13. We don't need things to get done. We need things to get undone.
  14. We had a government shutdown...twice...under the Clinton presidency and a Republican controlled Congress. I think this was the last time Republicans showed any balls. Me personally, I don't want any cooperation between Republicans and Democrats, because the only time they compromise costs us money in the form of "I will give you this is you give me that". The only comprise I want to see is "I will repeal this if you repeal that".
  15. Liberals need to stop the pedophilia. It's easy throwing out unsubstantiated stereotypes. Say them enough and the feeble minded will start believing them.
  16. Now that Trump is the inevitable Republican nominee, I have a request for the voting poll attendants. Will y'all please place barf bags in the voting booths because I know I am going to throw up a little when I vote for Trump.
  17. Most are good honest people. The problem is we have too many of them. And when you have as many federal agents as we have now, you are bound to have some abuse their power.
  18. Here's an interesting one on the FDA. I have no clue as to the accuracy. [Hidden Content] I have read/heard many stories about government agencies confiscating property and/or money without due cause and refuse to return it even after filing no charges. Had it happen to me. I had to sue to get my money returned...and I received no interest payments. It took me two and a half years to get my money returned after it was confiscated. That was a State case, but I can see where the Federal government can and will abuse their powers in the same manner.
  19. Read about them a few years ago. No, I don't have a link. When I did read them I had no reason to believe they were not true, but they could be. I saw the one about the guy's mountain home in Colorado on one of the science channels...History Channel, Discovery Channel, Science Channel, PBS...one of them. I then did an internet search and found an article that corroborated the story. So I definitely believe that one is accurate. Let me know if you find anything on any of them.
  20. The book was an example of one of the rare times the government does something good, although I feel the situation could have been handled more effectively without federal involvement. (I know that's debatable.) But for every one good thing the government does, you can list ten instances where the government over-reaches and uses their power to coerce and manipulate, or is just plain full of corruption and criminal mischief. How about the couple in California that was bottling their own milk. Their neighbors thought that the milk was better than store-bought milk because it was straight from the cow, and persuaded the couple to sell the milk to them. The FDA then came in and confiscated every thing the couple owned, including the cows. No due process, no warning, no nothing. Left the couple homeless. How about the couple that built their dream home. Had been saving their money all of their life. Bought a nice wooded lot. Got all of the permits and had their dream house built. The EPA later decided that the property was federally protected wetlands, and ordered the couple to tear down the house and restore the land to it's natural state...all at the expense of the homeowners. This was after the couple had paid for and received all of the necessary permits. The EPA started fining the couple $75,000 per day until the land was restored. How about the couple that built their dream home in Colorado. Again, they paid for and received all necessary permits. The EPA decided two years after the house was built that the house was on land now deemed to be federally protected, and ordered the couple to tear down the $800,000 home at the owner's expense. But since the house was now on federally protected land, the EPA decided that the only access road to the house could not be used and must also be restored to it's natural state. So the homeowners were ordered to tear down their house and remove all the debris with no way of getting any equipment to the site, not even their own 4-wheelers. They were given one week to restore the land. I could go on and on, rest a little while, then go on and on some more with examples of corruption and criminal behavior by various agencies of the federal government. Sometimes they do good things, many times they do not. I don't know of anyone that thinks government is not needed, but the government we have now is just overblown and is in need of serious reduction. This country was founded on the principle that the individual states have power to regulate, and the federal government was only for the common defense and to settle disputes between states. It is astonishing how that has changed. So reading "The Jungle" in today's context of the federal government is outdated.
  21. Now that is the ultimate badge of honor.
  22. That doesn't make Delaware, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Maryland and Connecticut any less liberal.
  23. Of course. The liberal states are voting. I would be more concerned if he had won.
  24. Thanks for the update. For some reason I thought all three would be tied head-to-head.
  25. Looks like there is a possibility of WOS, HJ and LCM tying for the 3rd and 4th spots with 6-6 records. So I don't think WOS has technically wrapped up a spot yet. If LCM wins out, HJ beats Silsbee, and WOS loses to Silsbee, all three will be tied for 2 spots.
