“Doesn’t matter what color you are, when you’re in Afghanistan and get killed, you come back in red, white and blue.” Rob O’Neill, SEAL who killed Bin Laden. “Nuff said…
Hmm, Heather Heyer probably didn’t get the red white and blue when she was killed for defending freedom in Charlottesville. She was fighting the same fight though.
If anybody throws tea in the harbor, they should fire those sons of bitches.
There’s no chance the Cassidy-Graham bill won’t undermine health care insurance coverage and affordability of care with respect to pre-existing conditions—Cassidy says Trump wouldn’t sign it if it did.
.
Assurances don’t get any better than that, what with the GOP’s integrity, and Trump’s comprehensive knowledge of the health-care system and everything.
The big controversy for tomorrow’s execution is some ill considered comments by one of the jurors. Here is what Barney Gattie allegedly said. https://chamblee54.wordpress.com/2017/09/24/the-juror-who-said-the-n-word/
What’s the over/under on how many NFL fans will actually not buy tickets or watch a game on TV? If you watch it on TV, it’s not boycotting, because it will make for better ratings. And ratings are way more important than the 1st Amendment, which at its core, is about the right to freely associate yourself with the cable provider of your choice.

Repeal and Replace is still just a tax cut pretending to be a healthcare bill with additional bribes to buy off the votes of the GOP hold outs.

Why Does Trump the majority leaders of Congress hate New York and New Jersey?

In related news, with all his pointless twitter storming, he missed going after Weiner and Menendez. Easy Dem targets.
Ivanka too…?

So where’s the chanting… private email, writen Right. In. The. White House. conducting government business with complete disregard of White House rules. With other White House personal. Where is the rest of the emails? You know, even the private ones. What if she was hacked? Where’s the FBI? Where is the congressional investigation?
Still no chanting…
(I bet I sound just as silly saying that as Noway does going all ‘hag’ mode)
Look at the very last picture….

I list 8 other things to be annoyed over, plus the 10 Will give us, and this is all you got?
Dang, Sis!! I’ll get to them! I swear!
I’ve only met two Dems un my life I’ve ever voted for, Buddy Darden and Zell. Having said that I will caution the Dems to avoid continuing to confirn their hatred of our nation. The people are watching and will not forget the NFL strategic disaster. The Silent Majority spoke loudly last November and will do so again. I really caution to say this because I strongly dislike what they’ve stood for since the 60’s. Dems lost the presidency in ’88 because of similar fingers in the eye sockets of the nation’s patriots by disrespecting The Pledge. They’re doing again and will suffer the same exact fate in ’18 if they do not wake up! The commercials have already been written over the last couple of weeks!
Something I read online on this…

As you’ve crowed about on this very forum…First Amendment does not apply to private sector – just government. “Hands Up Don’t Shoot”, the very imputus for this whole thing – was a lie. Thanks for that!
Just to be clear: When patrons continue to dwindle from the stadiums and the ratings decline for TV coverage, owners will begin suspending these misguided Snowflakes. They are employees, on the job. In the workplace. Wait and see….It’s always about the money. Every time.
Don’t recall Trump saying anything about race. Period. That would be you. Your side. Per usual. Has it been just blacks who have taken a knee? Nope. Yall need new material. You’re becoming tiresome.
