The fuckin' hypocrisy. Good catch, Oman. Missed that through all the other BS. File that response away for a good day, folks.

Also, Dip ass... This was a sealed indictment that was put together in November of '22, long before your favorite cronies put together the investigation of the "Biden Crime Family". On top of all the facts presented to you in this thread, it is not a reactionary measure by the FBI or DOJ, only an unsealed indictment. Fuck your feelings, bud. Facts are facts.

Hey buddy, fairly certain I at least double your income at around half your age. So, not only do I pay into it more than you, but I won't have the luxury of collecting from it because of your bloodsucking generation and supported policies.

@Little Earl what party oversaw the majority of that debt accumulation? You'll ignore my question once again or simply do your whataboutisms, but looking forward to either form of response. And yes, UBI will have to become a thing - one that your children or grandkids will heavily rely on, so accept that thought. But, hey, at least we can agree that lazy minded bastards shouldn't receive it...too bad for your offspring. Also, it does already exists, it's called social security, Medicare, and Medicaid. But I guess you'll refuse those handouts because you want to help with that deficit. Or you like it because you agree with handouts from others? Quite a philosophical quandry your limited view once placed yourself into... Dip ass.

@headhunter you really do just post in here to stir shit. You may or may not believe in what you type - either way, it's only to get some sort of reaction. You haven't grown out of the school kid thinking they're funny disrupting classes just for the shock value and some sort of weird attention. Your classic case of arrested development figuratively and ironically makes you the one into kids as your oneself. Maybe that's why you harp on in so much...me thinks thou doth protest too much Good luck out there in what you think is a hellscape of a country! Dip ass... Oh, and your welcome for your new Psych 101 and Shakespeare lessons...dip ass

I really want to break this down for you in a somewhat nuanced manner for an actual discussion, but it's not worth your shit stirring one sentence retorts. But no shit a vast majority of people of all ideologies don't currently have faith in our national government.

This says it all. Can't blame auto correct for that unholy bastardization!

If Trump doesn't win an appeal, what is your next excuse? Asking for the TR public record.

Unfortunately, you may have some bubble bias, @reo. The majority of healthy conservatives in Nashville that I know, and it's quite a few, would still vote party over country. They're either rooting for DeSantis, without realizing how far right he's gone or still spit at the thought of Trump, but lean towards him over Biden because they gotta fit in at church/ work/etc. Had a point blank conversation with a "healthy" conservative friend the other day. I said if the race were between Romney & Biden, I'd be interested in hearing Romney's policies. I then flipped the question damn near 180 and asked if it were Biden v. MTG, what would they do? They struggled as of it were an equal decision of me listening to Romney. The healthy conservatives are too entrenched into their social circles to change. Only truly healthy independents are leaning towards the liberal side for sanity's sake.

Yeah, it's rhetorical, but as with any problem, there's more than than 1 solution. Easing the process for legal migrants, in turn, reduces the number of those desperate enough to skirt the law to enter Most problems have multiple angles of attack. I'd think a super successful businessman like @LongTimeFan would understand that. Why is it so hard to give a thumbs up to that while still thinking more could be done at the border?

If they're going down there to process legal migrants faster, then what's the problem?

I've followed a similar path to nine and always appreciate his perspective. I could be wrong given the time gap, but think nine almost convinced me to vote Romney back in '12. Something happened last minute to make me switch to Obama. Again, could be mistaken given 11 years, but I'll just make this a "Props to nine" post. Been reading your posts since middle school. Always thoughtful and logical.

I'll be very clear that I know jack shit about military weapons. On 1st view, I gave a "hell yeah!" On 2nd and further views, this looked more and more staged. Even the audio seems oddly timed? I did a quick search on it and sources felt scant and unreliable. I'm far from a conspiracy theorist, but this isn't passing the sniff test for me as of now and seems like a false flag. Interested to see other sources on this one or if others here have more informed opinions.

Don't know whether to laugh or cry or do both at that, SK. Witty as hell, though.

Cool, I appreciate you adding some nuance to your discourse like you used to do back in days yonder and can partially see that point of view. If you want to know my actual political leanings, it's ideologically more towards conservatism, but we need a healthy balance between conservatism and liberalism throughout federal, state, and local levels - if the fed is conservative, we need some bleeding hearts on the local level and vice versa. The way it stands now, the Republican party can't allow for that nuance, although half the country is begging for it. In terms of propaganda, I watch more Fox News than anything to see what my friends and family are digesting. Without fail and on cue, you're in here parroting their talking points. So I know your are caught up in the propaganda machine. Meanwhile, I like to triangulate through various journalists that I've trusted before things got really crazy in '08, CNBC, Bloomberg, Fox Business, business journals, and older literature around world history and U.S. history. Not sure what propaganda I'm consuming there besides me trying to understand Fox News. I was fed a healthy diet of incredibly conservative, neo-Christian ideals for 2/3rds of my life and logically pulled myself away from it. Maybe look in the mirror, you handsome bastard? And just to stay on topic, if evidence exists, prosecute Trump. Likewise with Biden, the Clinton's, Obama, AOC, etc. It just seems like real evidence only exists for one of those parties. Maybe factor that into your equation for judgement?

Haha no, not even close geographically, but I'd try hitting it from behind as long as LittleEarl was praying in the corner.

Also, not even slightly trying to brag here, just providing you context and then we can be done with my background.

Hell no and that's the point where I stop at giving details. Educated enough to have been a Sr. Manager at a Fortune 300 Co. and now a department head at a well funded start up. I'm agnostic, so not trying to uphold any religious ideals.

@Little Earl already noted, I've been around this board for decades. Not a "libtard???" - raised very conservative Christian, college at UTK (college, a liberal safe haven that must be stopped! ), I minored in PoliSci (doesn't mean shit but I've read Federalist/Anti-Federalist and understand constitutional law) then grad school at a well respected private, Christian based university. BTW, I'm no longer practicing religion because of people like you. You're an embarrassment to Jesus's teaching. Hope he bends you over a baked bean barrel in your poorly ran factory job if there's an afterlife. Also, I wasn't even 2 years old when Clinton was elected. Seems like a skeezy guy with hit and miss policies, but I didn't bring my pacifier to the ballot box in '92, but you obviously still are doing so to this day. Dipshit.

@El Guapo I want to help you because prior '16 you held some conservative beliefs that I could get on board with and weren't a complete brainwashed zealot. @Little Earl on the other hand, had Peter Principled himself into an operations manager at a baked bean company years ago - sad as it represents our average intelligence as a country, but it's what it is.. Your average Democrat says prosecute when there is a crime. Current Republicans, not conservatives, as that shop has sailed, consider any indictment against them as a political act, but think only liberals commit crimes. Don't get me wrong, I think very left cities have lost their way on crime and justice, but it's tiresome hearing the whatsboutisms you continually spout off. These things aren't mutually exclusive, very liberal cities have lost their way and your idols have committed crimes, but they're inherently different issues. But considering you're all about states rights when it's about Neo-Christian ideals, why should you care about what NY, Chicago, SF, etc. do? Shocking and saddening that someone with your supposed education and background can't understand that. You won't respond because you never do to logic or reason, only snippets of posts or articles that allow you to feign outrage when you're hitting the bottle. Gotta try though as I'm surrounded by your ilk in TN. Still thankful you lead me to St. Thomas for me and my wife. Great hospital with a lot more practice that doesn't rely on physicians that demand sycophantic residencies! Look forward to hearing from you, you handsome bastard! I'm sure if you have a response, I'll lose even more hope in humanity, but prove me wrong!

If I don't find myself with the time in the future, I'll leave on this note: Fuck Putin and continue increasing those reading and search skills, Guapo, you self named, handsome bastard!

No need to guess. I was BulluckTheBeast back in the early to mid 2000s on GoTitans/TC/FootballsFuture, when Jack Kruse lost his medical license for the 3rd time, El Guapo just got his online one, oldschool was a less miserable asshole, WoolfolksUncle didn't have an uncle yet, and CTF was relevant - could go on and on. Love reading the board, but may not have the time or gumption to hang around.

Tried to be a sarcastic, yet somewhat positive, but TR will always TR! Also, don't have the time of day to go into that level of detail ILF, but always appreciate the effort. May be time to go on another 20 year posting hiatus.

Fair enough. Trying to find some middle ground in these dichotomy driven, polarizing discussions. And although I disagree with the article in general, it at least was coherent and not complete drivel. I mean, that's big progress for the MD that drove me to St. Thomas.

I'll actually give you kudos for reading something other than your typical propaganda pieces and nutjobs from blogspot. This shows real growth. It's an interesting piece, but instead of focusing on idolizing your new prince's thoughts, and let's be honest the author is doing the intellectual heavy lifting here, let's look at facts and outcomes. No dead U.S. soldiers. A small fraction of our bloated military spending, mostly from older equipment, has aided in significantly depleting Russia's military force. We're defending a democracy against authoritarianism, which of Cuban decent seems like you would appreciate. But keep debating those opinions instead of facts. And do keep branching out from ReaganCuredRacism.blogspot.com and LibTears reddit threads - well done!
