That's because they do it behind doors. I have more respect with the guy thay calls me a ahole to my face then once the door closes. He's got thicker skin then anyone I laid eyes on. Nobody would put up with what he has. Whatever you do don't say you are going to pit the American people first. Apparently that's a no nonand I missed the boat with understanding it. A thick skinned person holds his tongue, doesn't act like a third grader and responds to everything. He's embarrassing It depends.Two years ago this big fat pos was telling people that I was giving my kid steroids.His kid was like 5"10 when he was 12 but never grew anymore and was weak as hell.I was gonna let it go and told my son to take it as a compliment.That was until one day I was at a baseball game and I walked past him and a few other guys when he yelled out,Hey,do you think you could get Kaden some steroids?I walked over,looked at him and said,I probably culd but based on his genetic back ground and the fact that his father has more chins than a Chineese phone book,I doubt it would do him any good.Normally I wouldn't make fun of someone's physical appearance but I felt like it was warranted in this case.

Trump should have been criminally charged. I’ve seen financial records falsification/valuation frauds far less egregious that were criminally indicted. Likely the AG was looking for a slam dunk case with likelihood of high appeals concurrence.

Can’t think of a better book to sell. Just one more comment on this.....if ISIS or Al-Quida were selling Bibles, would that be OK to buy one from that fundraiser?

Lots of people donate to political campaigns in different ways. Me, I don’t donate to any political party. IMO it’s just another way of buying votes. If it was up to me, all donations, no matter how they were come by, would be put into an election fund and evenly distributed among all candidates. That way nobody can buy an election. Some candidates would spend wisely, some poorly. Which would you want to win?

As long as you're breathing, you can still repent and accept Christ. The trouble is, none of us know how long we will still be breathing for So, you can lead any life you want, treat people like crap, abuse your family, coworkers, etc. you know what I mean, and then on your deathbed, accept Christ? Sorry, no.

Sorry, no. In Matthew 20 Christ tells a parable of those who agreed to work all day receiving a certain agreed upon wage. Then halfway through the day other workers came and they got paid the same amount. Towards the end of the day other workers came and worked one hour. They got paid the same as all the rest. Even the same as those who worked all day long

Ezekiel 18 But if a wicked man turns away from the wickedness he has committed and does what is just and right, he will save his life. Because he considers all the offenses he has committed and turns away from them, he will surely live; he will not die.

I can tell some never worked in an environment that I did. I worked in a metal refractory plant for 5 years before I decided that I didn't want to kill myself working like that for the rest of my life. I quit and went to college full time. Was able to save enough while I worked to own a truck and I payed my way through college. Came out debt free.

Was able to save enough while I worked to own a truck and I payed my way through college. Came out debt free. Did sort of the same thing. Went through a post high school machinist program and then got hired by a local company (Elliott Co) to work on a drill press. I worked on some pieces that were as big as a small house to as small as a bread box. The good part was I had 3 or 4 paychecks sitting on my dresser not yet cashed as I didn't need the money. The bad part was I worked 2nd shift. At age 19 that's not a shift to work if you want any social life at all. When I quit the personal Dept called me and begged me to stay saying they had 40+ years of contracts and my job was secure. I was bored to tears. When I left I took my yellow hard hat and placed it on my dresser at home. I told myself every time I think college is hard...look at that hard hat and refocus.

So you know what I'm talking about. Trumps a lightweight with how it really is in the real world. Certainly never get riled up over it or lose sleep over it like some seem to do.

Trump's attention span isn't much better than my 4YO granddaughters. Ask Rex Tillerson.

Come on Ridge, only the spoiled, lazy, rich kids go to college I saw it on foxnews and many Mike Rowe podcasts and programs. How did you. or anyone else, make it out of college without being an indoctrinated snowflake?

Your covid support sure made you more liberal. Now you don't talk about it as much after you pushed heavy for lockdowns and such.

Your covid support sure made you more liberal. I never supported covid, lol. I still talk about it. Never shy away from a discussion. I did support targeted lockdowns, as I called them, and mitigation in areas were health systems were being overwhelmed. Working in healthcare provided a unique perspective on how bad it was that many of those outside of that system didn't have an appreciation of. It was bad real bad, but I also understand is was real bad for people and businesses that suffered financially. In my mind, lives were more important. Unfortunately, some lives were also lost to suicide ad other stressors from lockdowns. Mistakes were made. Messaging was horrible. Consistency was lacking. Fairness was lacking. Empathy was lacking. I was wrong about some things. Others were wrong about some things. Nobody is perfect. Hopefully, everybody learns from it. Hopefully, I hope we never have to visit another pandemic or epidemic again but we will. I don't think there will be a will to approach it the same way again, though. If the next virus is way deadlier than Covid, we will be in big trouble due to lasting anger over the last time.

And just like that covid went away and it was a pandemic of the unvaccinated and no masks to one mask to 4 masks was recommended. The guy who said he would get rid of it was growing tired of the people not getting vaccinated. Yeah amazing the stuff people like to ignore now.

Not sure where you are trying to go with all of that but as I said, lots of mistruths, mixed messaging and bad messaging occurred. Covid is still alive and well, by the way. We just had a little surge down here but thankfully, the current strains are pretty mild.
