    Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        Stupid to be such a one-issue mindset.

          Logical conclusion. Nothing surprises me anymore, but I do have a smug "we said it would happen" feeling much more now than before.

                        @copper said in Goodbye, Mr. Jefferson:

                        Stupid, stupid, stupid
                        Stupid, stupid, stupid
                        Stupid, stupid, stupid

                        I can't improve on this.

                        Hate this! Damn these cretins.

                          Has anyone come across the answer to the question of what is being done with these torn-down statues?
