All states will trend D.

Pritzker job is to clean up corruption and so wil the new mayor in Chicago.

Job of Senator is to have hands on experience with DC which Duckworth and Durbin has. A rep like Bustos or Susana Martinez will be senator from my homestate

I think Trudeau will win another federal term as Prime Minister, or in Beltway/Westminster speak: The Liberal Party will win another term, or keep seats.

In awe of bronze's profound understanding of parliamentarism.

No, Trump ran as a centrist(Obama social programs dont work); and we have Kavanaugh and a natl debt problem due to:more SSA filings for people under 62 and more student loan indebtedness

Time to close down the internet.

The five of you are guided in your actions by evil impulses. The Devil has invaded your minds, and caused you to lash out at those who are not like you. Cast his influence out, and you will be set free. Otherwise, you will be condemned to the flames of oblivion. Your behavior has made clear to me that there are many in this world who are not righteous, who are not just, and who are led astray by foul practices.

Share your story.

IN this the midway of our online life,
I found me on a gloomy board, astray
Gone from the path direct: and e'en to tell
It were no easy task, how savage wild
That forum, how robust and rough its growth,
Which to remember only, my dismay
Renews, in bitterness not far from death.
Yet to discourse of what there good befell,
All else will I relate discover'd there.

How first I enter'd it I scarce can say,
Such sleepy dullness in that instant weigh'd
My senses down, when the true path I left,
But when an effort posts' foot I reach'd, where clos'd
The chain, that had pierc'd my heart with dread,
I look'd aloft, and saw his shoulders broad
Already vested with that server's beam,
Who leads all users safe through every way.

Then was a little respite to the fear,
That in my heart's recesses deep had lain,
All of that night, so pitifully pass'd:
And as a user, with difficult short breath,
Forespent with toiling, 'scap'd from sea to shore,
Turns to the perilous wide waste, and stands
At gaze; e'en so my spirit, that yet fail'd
Struggling with terror, turn'd to view the straits,
That none hath pass'd and liv'd.  My weary frame
After short pause recomforted, again
I journey'd on over that lonely steep,

The hinder foot still firmer.  Scarce the ascent
Began, when, lo! a moderator, nimble, light,
And cover'd with a speckled skin, appear'd,
Nor, when it saw me, vanish'd, rather strove
To check my onward going; that ofttimes
With purpose to retrace my steps I turn'd.

The hour was morning's prime, and on his way
Aloft the server crashéd with those stars,
That with him rose, when Love divine first mov'd
Those its fair works: so that with joyous hope
All things conspir'd to fill me, the gay skin
Of that swift animal, the matin dawn
And the sweet season.  Soon that joy was chas'd,
And by new dread succeeded, when in view
A troll came, 'gainst me, as it appear'd,
With his head held aloft and hunger-mad,
That e'en the air was fear-struck.  A sh**t-poster
Was at his heels, who in her leanness seem'd
Full of all wants, and many a land hath made
Disconsolate ere now.  She with such fear
O'erwhelmed me, at the sight of her appall'd,
That of the height all hope I lost.  As one,
Who with his gain elated, sees the time
When all unwares is gone, he inwardly
Mourns with heart-griping anguish; such was I,
Haunted by that fell beast, never at peace,
Who coming o'er against me, by degrees
Impell'd me where the sun in silence rests.

While to the lower space with backward step
I fell, my ken discern'd the form one of one,
Whose post seem'd faint through long disuse of speech.
When him in that great desert I espied,
"Have mercy on me!"  cried I out aloud,
"Lurker! or registered user! what e'er thou be!"

Calthrina should consider the possibility that he has actually passed on and Atlas is in fact, his eternal reward.

[Morning in Atlas]

The "Opinion of Joe Republic" thread has revealed to me how awful many of the people on here are. When I first came to this website, I was expecting a place where there would be reasoned and polite discussion on the pressing political and other issues of our times. A place where there could be some humor, but also respect for others, and a capability to remain civil. Instead, what I found is a forum with people who lack any sort of respect for others; people who degrade and demean those who they disagree with; and people who bully those whom they have never met, or never will meet.

The posters on this very thread fit into that box. Whether it be Joe Republic, or ProudModerate2, or Maineac, or DoctorImperialism, or DevoutCentrist, or Gustar, or anyone else who dwells on this forum, it is all the same. You think that you know everything, that you are all saints, and that others should kiss your feet. You delight in scorning those who refuse to buy your narrative, and in scorning those who even dare to deviate from one of your treasured positions. You think that this website is your kingdom, a kingdom which you rule, and a kingdom in which outsiders are not welcome. In other words, you (and by "you", I mean all those with whom I have had difficulties), think that it is either "my way or the highway". Unfortunately, things just don't work that way.

Because I've found this forum to be a disappointment, and because the people on here are unwilling to see otherwise, then what am I supposed to do? What am I supposed to do? Am I supposed to change my avatar, change my views, and adopt a new line? I woiuld think not. Now, I will admit that I am not perfect; perhaps my "meltdown" on this thread is the best example of that. I am not a saint, nor am I the best model of behavior. I've done wrong to other people, I've made mistakes, and I've jumped to conclusions. But I am someone who sincerely yearns for dialogue with other people, who yearns to be part of a productive and civil community, and someone who wishes to have an active part in the discussions which are relevant to the lives of the many.

Unfortunately, in spite of my repeated efforts, it appears that everything has been for nought. And I strongly suspect that no one of what I've just said will matter to any of you. You will continue to laugh and to scorn me, and you won't make any effort to reach a common ground. It is my dire wish that everything which has transpired between us could be wiped away, and that we could start anew. I would like to forgive you, and I would like for you to forgive me. But alas, it is not to be. And since it's not to be, it will probably be best for me to step away from this site.

So Shaheen at +7 approval leads Sununu at +27 approval? I guess Sununu's popularity is a mile wide and an inch deep.

Sununu's wife has the same complaint.

A lot worse. I think Trump would win Oakland county v. Bernie.

[Bleach Blonde Bad Built Butch Bodies for Biden]

Appreciating all this advice and recommendations coming from the party of Donald Trump, thanks so much!

Not all of us are Trump supporters but being the party of Trump is far less worse than being the party of Corbyn/Omar/AOC

Jeremy Corbyn is not a Democrat.

AOC and Omar are basically Corbyn

AOC is more socially Corbyn and Omar is more fiscally Corbyn

The reverse is true

AOC on economic policies is Corbyn
Omar on social and cutural policies is Corbyn

Maybe AOC should have lived under Carter's incompetence or Mondale's immense tax increases, then maybe she would know what to support and what not to

Just digged into my harddrive archive and found this one with my old Vento and me:



I wonder where my old Vento is right now ...    Exploited and in a car graveyard in Poland/Romania/Hungary ? Or did it go into a junk press somewhere in those countries ? Or does someone in Nigeria drive around with it maybe ? I'll never know ... The last thing I remember is that the salesman I bought the new Audi from and who took the Vento back said that they'd sell it to some retailer in Eastern Europe ...

The good old times ...
