Re: BREAKING: Justice Scalia dies during hunting trip

RIP Great day for America Why do liberals always cheer the death of somebody they don't like? Pathetic. Yeah, maybe that was too harsh. Great day if you're a quail in Marfa, Texas. Feel better? BTW - Cruz and Rubio have already chimed in saying they won't confirm anyone put up by the sitting Presid...

Pickin' is easy, confirmation will be difficult (if not pragmatically impossible) part.
Wonder if he could leverage a moderate pair through in 10 months.
A pair? That would really make some heads explode...

Re: BREAKING: Justice Scalia dies during hunting trip

I didn't always agree with the guy, but he was true to his principles. His passing will have tremendous implications on public policy. Will the Senate be able to put the kebosh on filling the seat for 10 months? (Closer to a year if they wait for the next President to be seated) Yeah, tremendous im...

Re: Bernie Sanders to host rally in Ypsi on President's Day

He'll be hosting a rally at the ridiculously oversized and underused EMU Convocation Center: http://www.freep.com/story/news/politics/2016/02/12/bernie-sanders-coming-emu-first-michigan-stop/80314376/ Is this Sanders' first campaign stop in Michigan? I believe it is. Although the opening of his cam...

Re: The Farce Called The Democrat Primary Process

As I mentioned in a different thread, I don't remember which one, the Democrat primary process is corrupt. The "Super Delegate" situation makes it so. Because of the "Super Delegates" HilLIEry is getting the same number of delegates as Bernie Sanders in New Hampshire, although loosing the vote by o...

Re: Only Cruz and Paul Oppose Ethanol Handouts

I don't know anyone that thinks that schools shouldn't receive taxpayer funding or for that matter roads. A subsidy is a subsidy. They aren't building those roads for Vespa motorscooters nor are Universities being kept floating by tuituions paid by legacy parents. All I'm saying is let's just be re...

Re: Only Cruz and Paul Oppose Ethanol Handouts

The subsidies are just bad policy. I understand that a long phase out period may be necessary to ween us off, but we should start yesterday. Oh Christ, you might as well shut the entire fucking state of Michigan down if you stop subsidies. No need for cars if there's no gas, roads, etc. Also shut d...

Re: Officially less than a year of Obama left!

Honestly, I saw this thread coming a mile away. But I have to admit, I was wrong on who the author would be. I figured Bryce or MAYBE jry, but I don't know why I overlooked Matt. I don't give the Democrats much of a shot of winning in November. And if they did, it would be an unheard of feat. Has a...

Getting the black helicopters to sprit me out of Michigan isn't as easy as you'd think... With Betsy Prince just down the road? Come on, they have 3 or 4 running at all times just in case... and I completely forgot about Oregon's enlightenment. I had a client in Salem... Been over to Betsy's lately...

Re: Young people still jumping SS Michigan

Walla Walla - The town so nice they named it twice . Nope. The folks in the witness protection program have instructed me to only say I'm pursuing a career in agriculture (specifically a massive Patchouli farming operation) somewhere in the Willamette Valley. We'll have to leave it at that... At le...
