I guess this is good news for the 'Keep Hate Alive' crowd exemplified by Paul Krugman - a growing number of us think the other party is evil and stupid. Also corrupt, racist, sexist, and terrible at ballroom dancing. As I have said before, there is no money in moderation; its the angry and energized that write checks and buy books.
Often a country can unite against a common foe. However, that is more successful when the foe is external. Right now the Democrats view the legacy white patriarchy as the root of all evil in this country. it's going to be hard for them to get all of us on board with that.
WORD QUIZ: One of these words is quite unlike the others:
How Democrats view Republicans:
- Of the 22% who provided open-ended descriptions of Republicans, responses included: selfish, greedy, corrupt, spineless, fearful and bad.
How Republicans view Democrats:
- Of the 26% who provided open-ended descriptions of Democrats, responses included: socialist, angry, hypocritical, uniformed, power-hungry and violent.

Congratulations to Brian Kemp on becoming the new Governor of Georgia. Stacey Abrams fought brilliantly and hard - she will have a terrific political future! Brian was unrelenting and will become a great Governor for the truly Wonderful People of Georgia!

Isn’t it ironic that large Caravans of people are marching to our border wanting U.S.A. asylum because they are fearful of being in their country - yet they are proudly waving....
....their country’s flag. Can this be possible? Yes, because it is all a BIG CON, and the American taxpayer is paying for it!

JiB - that makes Abrams a real loser.Losers can never just suck it up. She has raked in enough money to stir up all kinds of mischief for the dark side.

ILLEGAL Hondurans, Mexicans, Guatamalans, El Salvadorans marching here with crimminal intent.

I think we all know the answer.

Thanks, Catsmeat.
I like how Howie asks sensible questions that regular people are interested in. I get more from Howie's question sessions than I do from transcribing White House Pressers. All I learn from those is on any given day how many snotty reporters ask the same negative Anti-Trump question du jour.

There are no participation trophies for those who refuse to participate. The MESSAGE that the disturbed LIBTARD kids were sending was FAR MORE HURTFUL than thanking those who were polite and Patriotic. Not hard to understand.

It was only 80 million last week when I first posted the schlock.
I doubt there is a high school art class in the country that doesn't have at least one person capable of a better painting than that.

I think you posted a Peanut's cartoon about Swalwell and Linus a couple days ago but I can't find it just this second. L'il help.

What really shocks me about Henry's former school district, is that they actually admit to having a FRESHMAN/FRESHPERSON English class. I'm surprised that half the class didn't ask to go see their grief counselors and kitty petting specialists to ease their pain. Stay THIRSTY my friends.
Posted by: GUS | November 16, 2018 at 08:52 PM
It is true that the Israelites were given a command to let the stranger in among them, but only under very strict rules and they were utterly assimilated or they weren't allowed to stay.
There weren't any Hittite restaurants or Midianite speaking TV networks nor Hebrew as a second language schools.
And there were darn few strangers left after they got done killing everybody anyway.
Jesus said nothing about immigration policy because He was and is only concerned and came to earth only to address the individual human heart on a personal basis not collectively.
We are universally guilty but saved one soul at a time and nobody gets in on anyone else's coattails.

In response to Swalwell, the government also has tanks, just like the government of China. Why don't we have Tiananmen Square here in the good old USA? Think perhaps the 2d Amendment has anything to do with it?

((Substitute teacher says he was banned after thanking students who stood for Pledge of Allegiance))
Any positive statements can only be made about leftist causes.
The most conservative/patriotic/Christian views can hope for is silence.
A friend is a teacher at a small university & she noted that it was actually okay to talk about the Bible & Christianity in class....as long as it was negative. It was only positive things that were banned.

I had to get off for awhile. Jack, we fly to DC week after next. Our hotel isn't but a few blocks from White House.
Yes, Porchlight, I am joan. I couldn't get on here for about three weeks, tried everything. Thought I'd been swept up in the ban. Then I saw others were having trouble. I changed emails addresses and name, etc., several times but nothing worked. Got on once or twice on my phone over at my daughter's house, but never could use my phone but once or twice. Then last week I tried one of my emails that I have never used and changed my name and it worked. I added the icon at the same time. I mentioned it, I think, last weekend when I couldn't get Chief, our dog's picture on but one of mine uploaded. I wanted to use Chief so tried again. Anyway, then today I couldn't get on with the other laptop and the new ID. So ... I don't know.
Anyway, I was so thrilled when the approvals came through and super-excited for my grandchildren. They'll remember this trip all of their lives. The information on visit says we can ask the Secret Service agents questions, so I'm sure the children will be thrilled. They're going to make Christmas cards for the First Lady. :)
