Re: Travel ban cockup

The kindest, most generous interpretation of Trump is that he's a buffoon who has no idea what he's doing. Yet a small cluster of treasonously stupid lifetime GOP supporters manage to defend even his most flagrant ineptitudes as though they were in on the plan all along.... I completely support sma...

Woof...That's some serious rigid bike flow heaven right there. Very similar to one of our local gems, Devils Gulch/Mission Ridge. BD, you ever make up to Galbraith?

thought crime legislation (so called hate speech etc) is nearly as disgusting as civil asset forfeiture. No one with an IQ over 70 could abide the tortured logic that goes into both.

as you have shown, adding the true trumprage crimes and subtracting the trumpedup claims is difficult math to do. you got people keen to make claims on both sides of the equation. my point is only that, sadly, hate abides. can we agree that there has been an increase in tears shed? what that signif...

Suggesting that small states should cede political advantages to larger ones so larger ones can benefit is stupid. Regardless of your bent on the issue...this is the crux.

Ferfucksake, he makes the best defense of the role of religion and spirituality I've ever heard and I've heard every damn one of them, ad nasuem. Anybody who manages to get my attention on a subject I find tedious deserves a second third and fourth look. Currently devouring his YT channel.
