Re: Happy Confederate History Month
The Founding Fathers all were slave holders. As for the Confederacy it is almost always wrong to judge people in the past based upon the morality of today. They were inline with the standards of that era. Even though those standards were changing. They didn’t fight for slavery. The south did. But k...

Re: Terrorist state of Russia emboldened by Western inaction

But the they will leave us alone and live in peace if we are just nice doesn't work. This is the post: I’m all for an honest debate. But you don’t have much to offer if the b...

Re: The issue that will define the 2024 election
Arizona and Florida shows us what happens with the right gets power.
The stakes for women’s freedom is clear. This is what the GOP has wanted for decades. Now they are all lying.

Re: Happy Confederate History Month
Why is that? Our founding fathers were traitors to the British Crown. Just as the CSA leaders were traitors to our federal government. They did it to preserve slavery. I don’t consider that a good reason, and I think the Founding Fathers were on a much higher moral level - they were basically ruled...

Re: Happy Confederate History Month
Had Trump not gotten involved in politics he wouldn't be getting prosecuted. If it weren't political then the DA would be investigating other firms for the same crime. If it weren't political then the DA would be investigating the lenders for their role. It is as if you, I, Joe and 6 rob a bank get...

Re: DJT Stock
That is what I was thinking. As for the loan we don't know if it was a loan. Another way to buy influence would be to pay off the president's sons IRS fine and buy his artwork for 100s of thousands. But let's keep this about Trump. I know I was leary about the stock offering. I figured it was a way...

Re: Happy Confederate History Month
This country was started by rebels. Just saying. The war is over. Been over for 150 years. The union survived. The south survived. All those rebels are dead. I consider it wrong as well as offensive to compare the Confederate South to the Founding Fathers. Of course, I also found it wrong and offen...

Again while true they weren't doing anything every other land lord in the country wasn't doing in that era. It even goes on today only more stealthily.

Yea right, I can imagine what you would be saying if the Biden family were republican. You do know the guy who paid 100s of thousands for Hunter's so called art is also the guy who paid his IRS fines. Again, a country wanting to curry favor and can give Trump’s kid $2 billion and nothing to see her...

Re: Presidential ranking
Funny how Glenn takes credit for Democratic bills that Reagan, while he did sign them, he didn’t ask for them.
As I recall, Reagan didn’t care shit for AIDS until his pal Rock Hudson died.

The scuttlebutt around that which I don't know is true or not is when they started drafting white kids from the middle-class and up things changed.

Did the Hunter deal happen in this country?
If Hunter should be pursued, why isn’t Jared’s MUCH LARGER deal being pursued?
You have quite the double standard.

A few things. Of course, Dawn Staley, no matter how good, will NEVER be given a chance to coach men’s college basketball.

Is there anyone to fill any void if Boeing were to disappear? There are quite several plane manufacturers, but only Boeing and Airbus are the ones making large passenger airplanes. Were Boeing to collapse - it would be bought out by another company and things would continue, most likely. It’s how t...

He is definitely going to be found guilty. The questions are what happens next and will it help him or hurt him politically. Imo the Georgia deal has helped him. This one I am not so sure about. While the prosecution is 100pct politically motivated it is very obvious that he did commit the crime. T...

Not really. A survey of 154 “scholars”. I dunno who those scholars were but I would certainly bet there is a certain amount of bias in that population. I don’t disagree with their ranking of Trump. I do disagree with their ranking of the current POTUS. I guess it just depends on who you ask and who...
