Wouldn't have had much choice but to change it. Economic pressure would have forced it in short order.
As I can't stand either major party I do like it best when they are balanced in opposition to each other.
Doesn't it feel good to stop and recognize how good we got it? This is a golden age.
I think that's a big problem. No one has any perspective. Our lives have never been better and yet everyone is grumpy all the time. It's like we're all in the too perfect version of the matrix and we can't handle the joy, so we bitch. If these overly sensitive school shooters had to work from sun up to sun down digging ditches to put food in their belly, I bet those kids are alive. Not only have we gone soft, we can't even say thank you.
Afraid your the delusional one here. I stand by my actions and my posts, which show me to not be racist at all.
Is Graham asking for $36 billion for infrastructure projects that have nothing to do.with the flooding? Because if he is then you have a great point. If not then you're being an idiot.
Someone forgot to tell virtually all black Americans that.
If you believe the Democratic talking point that Graham opposed giving aid to Hurricane Sandy victims then you're an idiot. You're exactly the sort of useful idiot Dem leaders count on to disseminate their nonsense talking points.
I'm not that old. you have no idea what it was like when and where I grew up. It was certainly nothing like the picture you paint.
Yes, awful of me to link a story with quotes from Graham himself mumbling away about how he couldn't remember why he voted against aid after Sandy. Ignorance is bliss.
THIS^^^^^^^^^^^^ is how I remembered it. It is another convenient "selective memory moment" for my friends on the right.
You keep missing the point. Just because you don't see the confederate flag as a symbol of racism does not mean that others, namely a significant majority of blacks, do see it as such.
He stumbled while trying to think of a good answer to a horseshit question. It's still a horseshit question and the talking point is a bald face lie. But go ahead and keep believing it like a simple-minded partisan hack.
Selective memory? What are you even talking about?
He's been in the Senate for decades and is a very polished politician. Cling to that fig leaf that Graham was stumped by the question.
How firmly are you entrenched in your partisan loyalty that you can look directly at concrete facts and disregard them as though they don't exist?
You're absolutely right that both parties add unnecessary pork to legislation. That's a well established fact. If you want to criticize Republicans for doing that or for demonstrating hypocrisy on "family values" issues then go right ahead. You'll get no argument from me.
1. Yes. They also have the American flag and Christian cross as their official symbols. I am no more enabling them than those who display those symbols.
It's really, really simple. Sandy, no aid. Lot's of qualifiers, and for some reason Graham can't remember why he voted against it. Joaquin, immediate aid and lots of it. Read what Graham is saying now. He is saying lots and lots of aid now, sort out the details later. Talk about selective.
Well now I'm going to call you out. Garnet and gold wasn't adopted until 1905. Such an ahistorical representation really makes me question your position on the flag. Tisk tisk, disappointed.
I didn't say which colors. The official ones now are more of a maroon and beige anyway. Did you want me to use purple?
Doesn't purple only go back to 1904? The 1904 and 1905 football teams used purple. The students voted for crimson. The school then mixed the two to get garnet. That's how I understood the story.
