Another one:
If plastic water bottles are okay, but plastic bags are banned, — you might live in a nation (state) that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
WE DO LIVE IN SUCH A DUMB COUNTRY!!
If you can get arrested for hunting or fishing without a license, but not for entering and remaining in the country illegally — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots
If you have to get your parents' permission to go on a field trip or to take an aspirin in school, but not to get an abortion — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
If you MUST show your identification to board an airplane, cash a check, buy liquor, or check out a library book and rent a video, but not to vote for who runs the government — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
If the government wants to prevent stable, law-abiding citizens from owning gun magazines that hold more than ten rounds, but gives twenty F-16 fighter jets to the crazy new leaders in Egypt — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
If, in the nation's largest city, you can buy two 16-ounce sodas, but not one 24-ounce soda, because 24-ounces of a sugary drink might make you fat — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
If an 80-year-old woman who is confined to a wheelchair or a three-year-old girl can be strip-searched by the TSA at the airport, but a woman in a burka or a hijab is only subject to having her neck and head searched — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
If your government believes that the best way to eradicate trillions of dollars of debt is to spend trillions more — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
If a seven-year-old boy can be thrown out of school for saying his teacher is "cute" but hosting a sexual exploration or diversity class in grade school is perfectly acceptable — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
If hard work and success are met with higher taxes and more government regulation and intrusion while not working is rewarded with Food Stamps, WIC checks, Medicaid benefits, subsidized housing, and free cell phones — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
If you pay your mortgage faithfully, denying yourself the newest big-screen TV, while your neighbor buys iPhones, time shares, a wall-sized do-it-all plasma screen TV and new cars, and the government forgives his debt when he defaults on his mortgage — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
If being stripped of your Constitutional right to defend yourself makes you more "safe" according to the government — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
THINK BEFORE YOU VOTE IN ALL UPCOMING ELECTIONS. MOST OF THE IDIOTS RUNNING THIS COUNTRY SAY ONE THING AND DO THE OPPOSITE KNOWING THAT THE PEOPLE WHO VOTED THEM IN DO NOT PAY ATTENTION

Combined or compared? It rained at Trumps inauguration. His ego is his best friend and his worst enemy.

I have to agree that stopping the show to single out audience members they don't like is very wrong. That is not just ruining it for the person being singled out, but it's disrupting the experience for other audience members. Regardless of my opinion on who they called out, if they did that while I was there, I would demand the $ back for my ticket & leave.
Franklin Graham: Attempted rape not a crime. Kavanaugh "respected" his victim by not finishing.
Is this guy really Billy Graham's son?

Funny ..
Floorist, it's alarming how they dragged their feet on Merrick Garland for a year but now they are rushing through this thing with Kavanaugh. There is something hinky about that guy. I think there are plenty of good conservative/Republican judges they could have chosen, but they picked this guy. The lawyer who selected which of his files to release publicly is also his friend.
I do think the recent allegations do merit an investigation before moving forward-- it's only fair since they did it with Anita Hill & Clarence Thomas. If they find it's a nothingburger they can move on. But it's better to be safe than sorry. Maybe they can use some of the $ they got from Manafort's asset forfeiture to fund it.
Now, I'm not one of those people who thinks we should always believe a woman because she's female. I'm always wary when these types of allegations come out. I suspect the rush is to push him through before more women can come forward and speak out-- if any of them are willing to risk needing Witness Protection for the rest of their lives. I mean, one of Roy Moore's accusers ended up getting her house burned down.
All of the mental gymnastics to justify why it would be ok if Kavanaugh did attempt to rape her is just disgusting. It would be one thing if they had been kissing and he was too drunk to know when to stop, but pushing her into a room, turning up the music, and covering her mouth to keep her quiet sounds much more sinister. That shows some forethought and clear knowledge that they knew they were doing something wrong. (That's assuming her allegations are true). She seems credible enough. If a liberal/left-leaning candidate had the same allegations & same hinky finance issues going on, I would think they should be rejected too. This guy doesn't pass the smell test. Especially since he presented a letter with a list of names of black students from (I think Harvard) claiming they supported them & it turns out some of them never even met him & did not consent to having their names listed in his support. One of them is running for mayor of Shreveport and wrote a letter to Congress asking for his name to be removed or for it to be entered in the public record that he didn't want his name on the list.
On a side note, I wonder how hard Jeff Sessions is rolling his eyes at Trump's repeated attacks against him on Twitter.

This inquiry with some girl from schooldays is ridiculous. Some 30 or more years ago? My god, Feinstein touched my diaper in preschool. I want her investigated and kicked out of office. Did it happen, I don't know, but these days whether it happened or not is besides the point.
Kavanaugh is the first supreme court nominee in history to have more people opposed to his nomination than in favor. Even Clarence Thomas was more popular.
