  1. I believe it was the Republicans that killed those, was it not?
  2. You know what would be cheaper... and more effective? Policy. An actual policy that addresses these peoples' needs to get out of their homeland, employers' needs for laborers, and our need to feel good about ourselves for actually doing the right thing. But yeah, some big orange balls, that will... um... yeah.
  3. Was she a great big fat person? ETA: Too slow.
  4. They're still voting R, because it's what Ike would have wanted.
  5. I don't know how true this is. Personally, I've gotten closer to embracing those things than I ever would have if Mitt Romney had gotten the Republican nomination in 2016. I also have a son that is going to vote in the next presidential election. He's never known me as the middle-of-road conservative voter. His political awareness has only been me and his mom (who never said boo about politics) taking against the GQP... talk about indoctrination.
  6. I'm not sure what I think of it. I don't hate it, but I feel like I need to see it again before I decide if that I like it. I always feel like WA has a lot of moving parts, but they always end up culminating into something at the end. I'm not sure Asteroid City did this.

  8. That Hebron band is no joke. I say that with all sincerity.
  9. What's going on with Pflugerville ISD?
  10. Man, if shoplifting drives people this crazy imagine how angry they'd get over white-collar crime. That's where the real money is... taxpayer money even.
  11. I would only amend to say tough means bullying. Bullying the people they don't like. The more cruel the bullying, the better
  12. "But it should be based on merit. My grandpa earned that spot!"
  13. Channeling my inner Brisket: But wouldn't that just be challenged as de facto AA? And with this court, wouldn't that logic be correct?
  14. So let's say a white kid, graduating next June, is in the top 5% of his class with an okay SAT score. Do auto-admission go out the window? What did this do to his chances of acceptance to UT? Asking for a friend.
  15. Good (and accurate) reply...
  16. Looks like it's been deleted.
  17. He's a spinal dude, I don't think he has a choice about rolling.
