It's easy to talk the talk to fire up the base, but Limbaugh, Davis, Gingrich, and Trump are just a few who have failed to walk the walk. Lead by example or don't lead at all.

Right on. They're so opposed to same sex marriage that they have gotten straight married several times. Modeling behaviors.

My comment wasn't gender specific, I was referring to "the same sex" within a monogomus marriage. It was a staple in Jay Leno's monologues.

Let me try to bring a little positivity into this thread. I was at a big high school football game last night. It was 9/11. Both student sections were waving a flag and both student sections randomly chanted "USA!" throughout the game.
There is hope.

Exactly. GQ had a great story about the oath keepers at the Bundy ranch and almost everyone the guy talked to had a chubby for the idea of shooting a couple Feds before going down in a blaze of glory.

Sanders leading Clinton by 10 in Iowa and 20 in NH. Clinton has significant lead in SC.

ObamaCare Enrollment Tumbles As Double-Digit Price Hikes Loom - Investors.com
"ObamaCare Enrollment Tumbles As Huge Price Hikes Loom"
Earlier this year, insurers started putting in rate requests for 2016, and in many cases they were gut-wrenchingly high — with some above 50%. Obama told the public not to worry, that state insurance regulators would knock them down to size.

Was there a Q & A session afterward? Golden opportunity to respond with, "I'm not at Liberty to discuss that."

What in that statement or anything he said do you find so offensive?

It was founded by people who owned slaves and kept that peculiar institution alive for another near century. Seems like a pretty rational statement.

Yep. He didn't say anything that was out of line with progressives.
I am very interested to know if attendance was compulsory like when Cruz was there versus him many kids were.there on their own.

ALEA to begin phasing out driver license offices; 33 to close Oct. 1 | AL.com
By March of next year Alabama might be down to just 4 offices in 4 areas to issue Driver's Licenses. They also have a strict voter ID law. Smart.

An oldie in anticipation of the GOP debate tonight:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/blog...-wont-walk-away-from-the-iran-deal-heres-why/
There's going to be a lot of huffing and puffing about the Iran deal but nobody on that stage will back away from it if they're put in charge.

well the only people who have a chance to win the election won't rip it up, per se. Reality is, its more damaging to abandon a shitty deal at this point...better to look for violations and respond. But people need to know the Soviets and China will be involved from a business and strategic perspective, so "snap back" as presented is not a reality.

While I kind of agree with the bold, I think it is also important to note that many European already want to end the sanctions against Iran. That is why a deal is important (unless you are in the attack Iran fan group). The sanctions as they currently exist are about to crumble one way or another.
Not necessarily. The Egyptians, The Zulu, the Moors, the Romans were not a "race" of people. Some civilizations were founded on nationalistic principals, others religious, some on tribal identity, some a mixture of all kinds of things. All were founded on some notion of superiority but it did not always include "race" as we view it in modern terms. One of the founding principals of the US was the notion of a divine racial superiority.

Alabama has roughly 4 million people in state with a drivers license. Obviously not all expire on the same day, but if it was bad before to wait in live at the DMV, can you imagine what it will be like now???
Also with the voter ID law....
I support a voter ID law in theory, but in principal when it is executed like that.... nope nope nope. Like Jayhawk said, it's a poll tax.
