[quote]If the Deep State or Biden or who the hell ever controls elections, explain two things: [/quote] Nobody [u]controls[/u] elections. But they have been and will be [u]influenced[/u] when they're close enough for cheating to make a difference....
[quote]It's been the narrative for 4 years.[/quote] The opposite is implied on a regular basis as well. Biden can't get 12 people to show up to see him, therefore he couldn't have even been close to Trump....
[quote]Absolutely not. But we don’t treat our politicians like cult figures either[/quote] :lol: [img]https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhH8Xee8n7Ekr16kaJhQ0PzAwat33YX488KQEiTvlGKaR3t3YcBBbXXlro7bQkniz7XorTcCCrp60QZ6uPTXnu_tCWq9rr67jJsTmafutXEqdIZiw6tA7saFIYrxZ0f9EQqlQyW...

[quote]Again. What power does that judge have?[/quote] The power that the executive branch gives him. Until we get another Andrew Jackson who tells the court to GTFO, they'll continue to create law as they see fit....
[quote]The bigger fish are part of the US Corporatocracy and they're also the bulk of the donor class.[/quote] The bigger fish also use CPA firms and have lawyers. They're less likely to have made mistakes to begin with. It sucks, but if you're the IRS and you want to increase revenue that's ...
[quote]Ugly arse building.[/quote] It looks like one of those toy skyscraper kits from the 70s....
Of course they are. That's where the bulk of the income sits in the US; between $50k and $200k....
[quote]They switched what went out to the American people from what they told Trump was going out. [/quote] Now we're cooking with gas....
[quote]He used to have good political instincts.[/quote] Did he? He only knows one way to act; maybe the timing was right for that in 2016 and he was in the right place at the right time. I know I'm not the only Trump voter who hoped/thought that once he won he'd shift gears a little bit. He s...

This is the logical result of the "get your morality out of the law" mindset that shallow thinkers have....
[quote]That was the point. A lot of the costs built into this is because of defensive medicine. When a provider is paying $50K a year for liability insurance they tend to either attempt to recoup their costs OR move to an area with more favorable tort laws.[/quote] And we'll never get tort reform...
[quote]After a few moments, the speaker looked up and said "Sir, simply because we have never been sued by a sheep."[/quote] I don't know how you'd quantify it but defensive medicine isn't helping costs or availability....
[quote]You’re such a melodramatic fig. No one cares.[/quote] I'd bet my truck his estrogen level is sky high....

re: Are we overlooking local elections?

[quote]Are we overlooking local elections?[/quote] Not where I live. We've had a conservative Sheriff for as long as I can remember, DeSantis just gave us a rock solid school superintendent retired 2 star (incumbent stepped down so gov appoints), Supervisor of Elections is retired from DEVGRU. ...
[quote]frick you. You've spent years crying about all things Trump and have done nothing but try and prop up leftists including President poopie pants who you enthusiastically voted for and now you post some grand proclamation that you can't support potato brain anymore in what is nothing more than a...

[quote]Yep and they’re so common that parts and troubleshooting experience is everywhere.[/quote] I based my purchase on all the landscape trailers. You see a trailer with a zero turn and 2-strokes all racked up on the sides, they're Stihl 90% of the time. ...

[quote]Stihl MS250. The Glock 19 of chainsaws.[/quote] This plus SeaFoam. Mine can sit for 6 months, stale gas, whatever. Cranks right up, just like the Stihl blower that also gets used sporadically. Adjustments are easy, good brake, good power for a homeowner saw. Just like a Glock, I don'...

re: What was Kristi Noem thinking?

Posted by Flats on 5/9/24 at 8:26 am
[quote]Plus she’s defending this by saying that Joe Biden should shoot his dogs as well. [/quote] He probably should have it put down. Unless it's a working dog there's no reason to keep a dog that's aggressive to humans. The damn thing has bitten how many people?...
[quote]Yeah, big hospital groups like Ochsner ain't hurting even with outstanding unpaid debt. But you should make the attempt to pay back even though they are fricking you on the pricing.[/quote] I'm fine with pushing back and arriving at a new number, because some of their "bills" just look like...
