[quote=flyer]Could be, but I don’t live in those states.

If people decide to move forward with secession, I hope they realize a lot could go wrong with this plan, and they could find themselves in a far worse situation than merely despising a particular politician.

I’ll carefully watch the progress of this proposal to see how things go, so we can cash out of all of our real estate holdings well ahead of any potential consequences (read watch your property values plummet) and live happily ever after regardless of what happens. Hope those who buy into this can do the same, just in case things don’t work out as planned.

In addition to plummeting property values, here’s another little primer on the consequences of secession:

Not advocating secession but the irony of ironies more local control of our tax dollars. Why should I be forced to send tax dollars to areas where people like to fly the confederate flag for example.

[quote=flyer]Here’s what some are proposing:

Might sound like a great idea until tech and other bubble industries burst again, and they are all out on the street, leaving the rest of us holding their bag. No thanks.[/quote]

Like the bags we already hold for the red moocher states?

[quote=flu]AN and I had a talk and I sort of agree with him. I’m willing to give Trump a chance.
Maybe he won’t actually do most of the things he says he’s going to do.
We got what we got, and let’s see where we take it.

Peace.[/quote]

Agree to giving peace a chance. I would hope he doesn’t move things too far to the right because that would only provoke a violent pendulum swing to the left and us moderates would not like that either.

[quote=scaredyclassic]1. does he really get hillary prosecuted?

2. build a,wall?

3. renege trade,agreements

I would hope the gravity of the office changes him. Otoh , I have seen power make some even MORE petty.

No new charges for alleged email mishandles-(at least until they find some on Pigging ton servers.) https://www.yahoo.com/news/fbi-tells-congress-not-changed-conclusion-clinton-emails-203610912.html

Don’t underestimate the desire for safety and the momma-bear instinct.[/quote]

My brother blames over policing and big bother on democrats.
I blame the momma bears who want zero tolerance, except when their own kids do something bad, they beg for mercy.

Momma bears usually follow the politics of their husbands. But this election, with Trump, they see that men hold power they are feeling fed up. I’m talking suburban college educated women. We will see how they vote on Tuesday.[/quote]

It is so not surprising that you are single.[/quote]

I’m the biggest asshole on this site.
Or at least I don’t care if anyone thinks I am.

But there rules of decorum that I take very seriously.

You can attack someone’s post – their argument – as ruthlessly as you like.

But You don’t mention family, or relationships, or personal life.

Not cool.[/quote]

Melania is also outraged

[outtamojo]

[quote=FlyerInHi]We now have proof that Melania was an illegal immigrant.

Yes but I forgive her for trying to make a better life for herself. Was she ever malicious at all?

[outtamojo]

[quote=Blogstar][quote=outtamojo]Yes. But I’m not the smug one[/quote]
You got me there, well I think maybe that was directed at yours truly? I am feeling pretty proud. Don’t worry, soon something will bring me down a notch. Overall though, I am a great man.[/quote]

I prefer to be on the bottom rungs- that way nothing/nobody can knock me lower.

[quote=flu]Have you heard? If you vote for a Democrat , you are going to hell.

Lol… I guess Catholic priests molesting little boys get a free pass to heaven as long as they pretend to repent.[/quote]

It’s the damned vs the deplorables. How fitting.

[outtamojo]

Damned liberals ARE rigging the election

Yes. But I’m not the smug one

The say humans have a 83% success rate , must be using a population of noobs and interns.
The targeted 90% success rate would rate you as a human terrible by hospital standards.

[outtamojo]

I would expect 0 child molestations by Catholic priests, is that unreasonable?

[outtamojo]

And so apparently it is legal to leak stuff as long as it is not on a private email server…

[quote=no_such_reality]So I don’t watch Fox news. I’ve never heard of Bret Baier. Suddenly, my facebook feed has several links to Bret claiming two FBI insiders saying ‘indictment’ likely ‘unless obstructed’.

Now, it’s Fox news, which as far as I can tell in the past is the diametric opposite of CNN.

So is this guy just a TV version of Rush Limbaugh?

Personally, I find this very kind of reporting line very inflammatory and reckless unless they’ve carefully vetted their sources, which as of late seems a source is nothing more than someone running their mouth with any tenuous connection.[/quote]

It’s what sells. If not Fox, the Fox audience will just find some blogger spewing the same garbage and elevate him/her to demigod status.
