    @89th Excellent! You will love it in Greater Minnesooooooota. That's what we call any part of the state not in the Twin Cities metro area. I highly recommend checking for housing in Greater Minnesooooooota. We're where the fun is!

    I can't stand NewsMax - it's like CNN for the Right. All that red meat is just gross.

    @Doctor-Phibes said in Unmarried, underemployed and unchurched: @Jolly said in Unmarried, underemployed and unchurched: @taiwan_girl said in Unmarried, underemployed and unchurched: It would be an interesting poll to ask prisoners in jail if they were religious or not. My guess would be that the majority say that they are religious. Depends if they are on death row. If I was on death row, I don't think I'd want to believe in OT God, because in that scenario chances are things are only going downhill after the injection. Oh, I'm not talking out of my hat...My wife's uncle worked Death Row for years. I've been places down at Angola that you never could...After the guys knew me, I've had bars clang behind me many times as I was trying to get papers signed (guards don't always have relief). Camp C, Camp A and Death Row. I used to eat down at Camp F a good bit...White beans and smoked bologna over rice and a slice of cornbread ain't bad. Even back years ago, when Old Sparky was in use, I was down at the prison a good bit during hunting season. One of the guys I hunted with, bagged the remains after execution. So I've been all over the grounds and I've talked with a lot of cons. You'd be surprised at how many churches are on the grounds of Angola. Prisoner built, some of the work is pretty durn good. Lots of love in those boards. Many of those prisoners on The Farm will die on The Farm. Their coffins are built in the woodworking shop. Most if the time, nobody wants the body, so they get buried on the grounds. [image: 16623be1ba21d26c9a29931ba00b16a7.jpg] If grey walls are your life, religion offers hope. It offers a certain kind of mental freedom before death and spiritual freedom after.

    @jon-nyc said in Any validity?: @jon-nyc said in Any validity?: My in-person vote took two attempts in our reader this year. In fairness, I must add that my vote met Trump's working definition of fraudulent. It was early, and it was for Biden. May you be well-taxed for your efforts.

    @George-K said in Dersh Speaks: Andy McCarthy had a related analysis. To get the courts to recognize this it's a really high hurdle. To succeed you have to prove Fraud occurred (presumably a relatively easy thing to do) Prove that the outcome would be altered by the elimination of those fradulent votes. That's a LOT more difficult. Ted Cruz said much the same thing.

    @xenon said in Andrew Sullivan is on point: @Loki I'm saying he could probably do nothing and things will look pretty decent by April. It'll look better. Flu season will be over.

    Not really an escalation, more of a turnabout https://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/10/us/trump-election-protests.html The protests on Wednesday came just hours after Hillary Clinton, in her ... page titled “Not My President” called for protesters to gather on Inauguration Day https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trump-inauguration-protests/violence-flares-in-washington-during-trump-inauguration-idUSKBN1540J7

    Only 5 who were registered as lobbyists in the last year though. Out of 500+ appointees? Honestly I would have guessed a much higher number than the 5 or the 40. I'm guessing a decade or two ago it would have been a much larger number.

    Yeah. On the plus side there's going to be a recount as it is.

    @Aqua-Letifer said in An interesting conversation I overheard...: @Larry said in An interesting conversation I overheard...: For example, anti Semitic. They believe Republicans are anti Semitic. Yet they believe Israel is a bunch of devil's for mistreating those poor poor "palestinians", they think moving the US embassy in Israel was done to hurt "palestinians" and help mean old Israel, the peace deals Trump worked out between Israel and other Arab nation is bad..... the truth is, THEY are the ones who are antisemitic. Some Jewish communities are catching on, though, and they're bringing this to light. It going to be interesting to see how the militant left grapples with those in the Jewish community who are calling out this behavior. So far they haven't gone so far as to adopt an overall anti-Jewish mindset, but I wonder what's going to happen in the next few years. Trump did pretty well with Florida Jews. Those are going to be the older guys, the sons and the daughters of Jews who well remember the Holocaust and know what real anti-Semitism. is.
