    I think that the notion that Mike Pence or Ted Cruz would support the establishment of a State Religion is absurd.

    I think that our unquestioning support for Israel is justified by many with bad theology.

    I really don't get the alignment between certain religious leaders and Trump, so I'll grant you that one; however, I do not see religion as a threat to our political system.  I don't think that western democracy would have emerged without the philosophical and religious context and milieu of 17th century europe.  So far from a threat to our political system, religious philosophy was the seed and is the foundation of our political system.    

    Your view is becoming increasingly marginalized and laughed at, well because you support a goddamned fool.

    He was an unqualified president for his first term.  He then tried to close out his 8 year tenure by touting Hillary Clinton as the most qualified candidate in history.  Any capitol he'd built up was squandered by that remark, and his stifling of any actual investigation of Hillary Clinton.

    Fyi, not capitol. You dumb fucking illeterate Cheeto sucking bastard. Hey, I found my cuss words.  Congratulations you fucking fuck.

    Please tell me about Mr. Obamas qualifications....  Nobody can ever seem to do that.......

    He was a decent fucking president for 8 years, which apparently pushed you off the deep end,  on board, more like overboard, liking seamen and looking for the head like Pence.  

  4. Second worse, or maybe tied for first but...   going into my oldest mentally ill sisters house after she committed suicide by eating a bottle of pills. It was like she never cleaned the place.  Not only didn’t clean it but never in 4 years never took out trash or anything. It was quite possibly the most squalid shit I’ve seen outside the internet. She’s in there dead on the mattress, says the constable.  Yeah I get it.   It took 3 days to clean that shit up.  She had two cats.  The first one came out willingly.  The other, was traumatized.   I finally found it on top of a bookshelf and when I tried to get her down she yowled enough to bring me to tears.

  5. Early spring 1984.   Garwood, Tx.  I was 17 and had just gotten done with my after school job of cleaning potable water tanks for oil rigs which involved climbing around inside with some simple green and a bunch of rags, and was relaxing on the propane tank of my parents yard with a cigarette.  I’m about 200 yards or so from the high bank of the Colorado river.  Some kids came running down the street yelling “help!”   At first I thought they were fucking around. Then my friend Jesse Rodriguez came running from the other end of the street and we got them to calm down enough to where the told us.  We ran down to the corner and plunged down the steep riverbank. Florencio Ramos, Jr. had gone into the water with a net and rubber boots, and slipped on the clay bank.  Didn’t come back up.  Jesse and I jumped in and started looking.  Water was about eight feet in that eddy and the current swept away from the bank as there was a shoal just downstream.  We couldn’t find shit.  After about 30 minutes Flo’s family was there on the riverbank wailing and a couple other people had jumped in the water to search.  At that point, being a good swimmer, I knew it was pointless. After about 45 minutes Jesse found him.  I remember the look on his face when he broke the surface of the water and he looked exhausted and defeated and just plain mad, but he had an arm in his grip.  He gave that arm to me and we pulled the body up onto the small ledge of the riverbank. I sat there with Florencio’s head on my thigh and this nasty foam came out of his mouth, and I had to swat flies away from his face.  His family was wailing even louder behind me.  It was mind wrenching.   Discussion about having to get a boat and take his body across the river so they could put it in a vehicle.  I had ridden on the school bus that morning with this boy.  

    I went back the block or so to my house, and my dad was walking into the garage with a shovel.  I looked at him and he shook his head and walked inside.  He had just finished burying my 14 year old dog.  Pepper.  All in the same fucked up afternoon.  

    Yeah that day I was traumatized a bit.   Still remember every moment of it.  Down to the FFA jacket Florencio was wearing.   He just wanted to catch some bait and go fishing.

    Serious question: y’all really think Beto will win?  

    If Texas voters had any sense he should.  But there’s a lot of you running around voting.

    Now we are getting somewhere! #RealTalk

    You’re going to get a bad seed now and then, but the vast majority of failure leading to shit like this is shitty parenting. That’s my opinion and I’m sticking to it.  

  8. Live with it.   Like the price of winning freedom, getting the fuck shot out of you is the price of maintaining it.  Short of locking up pimply teen malcontents and ghost worshippers, not a fucking thing you can do about it, EXCEPT, don’t have kids if you can’t properly raise and teach them some fucking decency.

    i listened to the March 2018 Radio Lab podcast on the russian everything. reviewed and interviewed parties from a "fake" set of protests in florida. holy shit. great idea on their part (the russians) and man the americans that were involved. yikes. 

    so yes, who the hell knows what and where anything is coming from. americans are so thirsty to have their hatefilled views reinforced at every corner. i can't imagine we are that hard to dupe 

    Exactly.   Hear the fake echo coming from the chamber and latch on for dear life.   Dude was a fucking psychopath killer. What else do you need to know?

    Nope. This board does, just as Texags leans heavily right. To assert otherwise is fortifying your stupidity. 

    So you see a meaningful trend there, Corky?
