I try to change things with my vote, but it seems the new boss is the same as the old boss.
The Who only told us this........a gazillion times on the radio.
You would think we would have realized it to be true, by now....too.
But Noooo!

If you could make a claim as fact that was more easily proven false I'd be curious what it was.

I don't hate him.
I just don't care for his personality or his leadership "skills."

And......

I hate his AGENDA; his idea of a fundamental transformation of America.
That's all.

BTW.....I didn't like Bush's 2 terms either and never voted for him....either time he ran!
I opposed going into Iraq and see Afghaniland as a continuation of a quagmire we never had business getting into!
His daddy's agenda either! Mr. "Read my lips."
But, I do miss Reagan's character......since I haven't seen anything quite like it, ever since.

I've done taxes for the past five years. I know what retirees get for Social Security, and it's quite a bit more than they ever paid in.

Didn't suggest that. Euthanasia might be a better idea.

I'm a proud producer. I've been an unwilling supporter of parisites for many years now.

Nope, you're totally independent and have never used:

Infrastructure, roads, freeways, bridges, the court system, laws, parks, libraries, fire departments, police, dams, schools(obviously not), building codes, Weather forecasts of tornadoes and hurricanes, Food Safety laws, consumer safety laws, THE MILITARY, ....




WOW! My hat's off to you guys...so INDEPENDENT!


makes me wonder why a country was formed at all!!
