      Not at all trying to single you out, Red, just making the comment because I see that sort of thing posted all the time and I think it much more likely to push people away than it is to bring them in.

      Just FYI, but as somebody who didn't vote for Clinton (or Trump), I find the repeated accusation of it was how the emails were handled which prevented me from voting for her rather annoying. If you want to grow the Democratic Party, that is not how you do it.

  5. What kind of mental pre-existing condition must one have to want so badly to rescind care for the poor and sick in order to give tax breaks to the rich?

      Our representatives have shown again and again they are very eager to spend lavishly on the DoD in order to be able to kill people efficiently, but are very reluctant to spend money on healthcare in order to care for people. What an ugly society we have become.

  7. Going on another cruise, taking the kids this time and we're going to drive. The questions is......do I avoid Atlanta all together and go through Nashville and Birmingham to get to Miami or drive right through Atlanta and say, "Hold my beer and watch this!?"

      I second Moiraine's St. Louis suggestion. The City Museum is pretty great.

  8. Arkansas just passed a law allowing concealed handguns on public university grounds. And yes, that includes inside the football stadium. What could go wrong?

      Current policies are simply not sane, and growing worse.

      We should go back to the roots of the 2nd amendment and recognize that gun ownership is not protected outside of saying that states have the right to form well-regulated, armed, militias.

      We took the opportunity a couple of summers ago to stop at many of the locations in the deep south where the events of 50 years ago took place. It was a memorable experience, and one that the kids still bring up from time to time.

  17. How about we just stop playing the National Anthem at all these sporting events? Keep it at the high school level and maybe a few of the big events like CFB championship game, Superbowl, world seris and call it good.

      .. Maybe the song doesn't resonate with people the way it once did - it's a very different time now than when it was written. Personally I would welcome a national discussion to replace it with something different that expresses more closely what the ideals of our time are.

      I'd be strongly in favor of reducing the occasions for which the anthem is sung. As was mentioned earlier in this thread, it has become a somewhat contrived and trite ritual. I can remember as a kid (several decades ago) going to events where the anthem usually wasn't performed, it was actually sung by the audience, and most would actively participate. While that still happens now to some extent, it is seems to be different than how I remember it from back then. Maybe the song doesn...
