  1. I don’t believe or support any of those points he made as they were worded . so I stated what I do believe on the subject .
  2. 1. I don’t believe tax cuts for the rich, and trickle down economics , do the majority of this country any good, including the poor . I’m also not in favor of calling the poor free loaders, lazy , losers etc and I’m not in favor of slashing programs those people need to survive . 2. Whatever your faith is should not determine who another person loves , and should not be used to deny them any human rights or the pursuit of happiness . 3. I don’t support illegal immigration but I also don’t support locking little kids up or separating them from their parents . There are better far less brutal ways to solve that problem .
  3. If anything I see more Republicans losing their minds and freaking out over the EC than anyone . Without that they would have lost 2 more elections , and under a popular vote system they may never win another . They know that and they’re scared .
  4. Ha ha aaaaaaannd you just did it again . I would love to see the EC gone so my vote would actually count instead of being overruled by other people who happen to live the same state as me . That’s it . Like most of my views it’s a sane , dry eyed , sound minded conclusion I’ve come to , that isn’t going to change, no matter what you point out .
  5. Speaking of petulant children why does every far right winger like you post in the same attack /blitz format on every post . Instead of posting things in a sane , civil , well thought out manner yiu chose to go wild saying things like “there’s absolutely positively NO way anyone is right but me whatsoever AT all !!!! “ All of my views are 100% marvelous , supported by everyone on the planet without exception “ blah blah blah Then go on to on to use cute words like triggered , whiners , crybabies , libs , crazy losing their minds etc in an attempt to run any opposition down and make your points seem more valid . Lasty you blast away with the same buzzwords and post the same “points” 1000 times, at warp speed, hoping to wear your opponent out and get the “win” Seems like a childish pointless way to “debate” to me .
  6. You’ve said that about the Clintons a 1000 times but it still doesn’t make it true . 67 million people voted for HRC in 2016 and aside from a viscous unproven smear campaign she was the much better, more qualified candidate. Bill was a long time much beloved governor of Arkansas for many years and a 2 term POTUS . So the claim that the “whole country” hates them is false . They are both highly educated intelligent people who I would very much enjoy talking to . Trump is a pompous ignorant windbag I would want nothing to do with . Its not about political power to me either wretched people like Mitch McConnell are good a gaining political power at all cost , that doesn’t make him a better person to me at all . Qualities like being thoughtful ,intelligent, well spoken , respectful , diplomatic , and being a caring person are more important to me . I see many of those qualities in both Obama’s and both Clinton’s . I see none of those qualities in Trump or most of the god awful GOP leadership .
  7. I thought the same thing about Bush and even Reagan . I wasn’t a fan of either as a president but I thought they were decent human beings with admirable qualities . Not so much with Trump . The one Kudo I will give Trump is that he’s a master salesman . He’s not really a great human being on many levels but he’s able to sell himself as the greatest ever and people buy it . I don’t know how he does it .
  8. Having money is the ultimate power in this country. Trump has used his money to bully/control others , and get away with being a jerk for years. Many people consider that being a badass .
  9. I’m not sure the Wisconsin game , especially the second, half was a good measure of our d-line . Wisconsin uses a slow grinding type of offense , and gigantic linemen to wear defenses out , it’s what they do . I thought the first half was respectable but second half out guys were tired and we lack the depth to rotate in fresh bodies, so the wheels started coming off . I don’t think we’ll play another O line like that other than OSU so the d will look a little better .
  10. Probably because nobody asked me about it so it didn’t include ALL consumers . Black and Hispanic what are high? With trumps attitude towards them I have a hard time believing any of them would support him for any reason . Instead of giving a true middle class tax cut they gave 1.5 trillion in tax cuts to the 1%, and crumbs or nothing at all to the rest . Wages are stagnant or in decline , and very little of that massive tax cut trickled down as was promised . Those are the things I care about because they actually effect me
  11. “The Economy” is on fire for the 1% . “My” economy is unchanged, or worsened that’s what I’m worried about . And for that one thing “good” they keep going on about Trump has done and said many bad ones too. He is and should be called out for every one of them which his supporters won’t do .
  12. There are numerous posters on here who post links to facts that dispute many of Trump and the GOPs claims . Those are usually ignored by certain posters though , and replaced by Trumpeting Fox News /Hannity type propaganda over and over . I take that kind of rubbish with a grain of salt too .
  13. Swagger needs to be earned by winning games, and being better players than the guys on the other team . I remember the 90s linemen talking about smiling at the other team as they broke huddle and lined up . They knew they were bigger , stronger and tougher than the other team , and 3 seconds after the ball was snapped the other team would be knocked on their asses . That’s swagger to me . We’re not that good right now but I believe we will be again . The unwarranted , unnecessary , swag I see, like dancing around after a penalty, or when the team is down by 3 touchdowns is bs that shouldn’t be allowed .
  14. I think bad technique has something to do with the holding calls too . Holding happens on every play, I just think better technique would keep us from getting caught .
  15. I know nothing about her . There won’t be any more judges added now . The Republicans have completed their 40 year mission of stacking the court in their favor .
  16. You should just admit that you are glad a little partisan hack is on the SCOTUS so he can protect Don the con , overturn decisions you don’t LIKE, and further the ultra right wing Christian minority agenda . His confirmation had nothing to do with how brave , good or qualified he is . There were many equally qualified judges who could have done the job but they chose a partisan puppet who failed miserably at 2 job interviews instead .
  17. I thought before the season we were probably going to lose to OSU, Wisconsin , and Michigan anyway so those didn’t bother me as much . We got dominated by Michigan , but I thought in the Wisconsin game there were some bright spots , and players still trying hard til the final whistle even in a loss . I think we have the team to beat Nortwestern, Minnesota , BC, MSU , Iowa, Illinois and if we keep from killing ourselves, we can definitely win those games . I don’t think we have the players to beat OSU I just want to see our team compete hard for 4 quarters and not give up against them like last year .
  18. 10 plus penalties again . We’ll have a hard time winning a game this year if that keeps happening .
  19. Cool . I think I would be good to see both those guys get some playing time in whatever capacity they can .
  20. We are playing one our toughest opponents on their home field this week so yeah its probably going to be rough. As long as the team plays, and the coaches coach hard for 4 quarters , limit stupid mistakes, and don't give up til the final whistle, ill be happy regardless of the result.
  21. I was really happy when Frost landed Bell and I had high hopes for him . It sucks that it didn’t work for whatever reason but i feel we are pretty set at that position so we’ll be fine . Zig is killing it , and a healthy Washington is a dynamic playmaker, Jones , Bradley ,and Mazour for backups were good . I thought the same with Lindsey I had high hopes for him too but his leaving didn’t hurt the team so much. This program is going onward and upward anyone who isn’t “ N” is better off looking elsewhere .
  22. The sexual assault accusations are a serious , possibly criminal thing that needs to be investigated properly. I believe they purposefully weren’t, and aren’t going to be, which is wrong . That is only one reason Kavanaugh should not be handed this job though . I recently had a job interview, where three people peppered me with questions. I was expected to answer calmly , thoroughly , truthfully , and articulately to have any chance of getting the job . If I would have yelled at the interviewers, given purposefully evasive answers , accused them of conspiring against me , couldn’t remember key details about myself , or even outright lied on some things (as Brett did ) I certainly would have been eliminated from consideration . I’m sure there were many other qualified applicants for the job I applied for, as there are many Judges suitable for the SCOTUS so there’s no reason to give the job to anyone but the best candidate . Unfortunately nothing matters but the GOP and Trump getting “their boy” on the court and furthering their agenda , so that’s whats going to happen .
  23. i thought this was supposed to be Freedom's year? Anyone know why that's not happening?
  24. Stripes , Caddyshack, and Ghostbusters in no particular order
  25. Meh 1-4 beating the powerhouse Southern Utah isn’t exactly anything to brag about . I’m sure there were many hip hoorays and sprinkles on their ice cream after that one though .
