Daily Beast: ‘Pro-Life’ Herschel Walker Paid for Girlfriend’s Abortion As I said in a different post, if a republican comes out strongly against something, it's pretty much guaranteed that they are doing it. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JerryBaumchen 1,081 #933 October 6, 2022 Hi folks, Why should his type of 'family values' get in the way of election of a GOP candidate: found himself making the Christian case for supporting a candidate whose Senate campaign has been marred by personal scandal.

JerryBaumchen 1,081 #934 October 6, 2022 Hi folks, Can he get any more dumb: That’s how these people think DeSantis says ‘national regime media’ wanted Tampa to be hit by Hurricane Ian | The Hill IMO it is just exactly how DeSantis thinks. Next he will be saying it was a conspiracy by the Democratic Nat'l Comm. And, the idiots will eat it up. Jerry Baumchen Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Look at how the temperature keeps rising even when republicans forbid it! Look how the sea level keeps rising, despite everything Trump said, and despite the half dozen picture Slimmy posted! It's rising just to spite him. And liberal sound is now causing windmill cancer. Somehow. Biden lets illegal hurricanes from Africa and Central America just blow right over our borders because of his open border policy, and those hurricanes want to destroy America with their fentanyl and their 180mph winds and their anchor babies. Not like hardworing, honest American storms. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Walker would vote the way Trump wants him to. That's good enough for Ron. They don't care about 'ethics', 'morality', or even 'right & wrong'. They want power. Period. They've even said so. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We saw a similar response when Ron voted for Trump, despite Ron being a veteran who had in the past been very critical of draft dodgers. But with Trump he said that he didn't really follow things like that, he just wasn't that political back then. This time republicans will say something similar.

JerryBaumchen 1,081 #943 October 10, 2022 Hi folks, What else should one expect from a GOP Senator from Alabama: his remarks were racist. Alabama Sen. Tuberville equates descendants of enslaved people to criminals : NPR IMO the modern GOP is very hard-pressed to find people of intelligence to run for office. Tuberville is a perfect example. And, people wonder why I will not vote for any Republican at any level. Jerry Baumchen PS) I am all for incarcerating anyone convicted of a felony crime.

When democrats make such comments, they resign or are booted. When republicans do it, they often go on to win elections. The message is often "look how upset I got the woke crowd!

Hi Keith, As your link shows, she resigned, as Bill V said. Now, how about Tuberville resigning? Not a chance in hell of any GOP-type calling for that; or him doing it. I rest my case.

I realize I'm singing to the choir here, "In his book: Dreams From My Father, Senator Obama makes the connection between politics and racism when he tells his readers how white Chicago Democrats vowed to vote Republican before they would vote for a black man (Harold Washington) to be Mayor of Chicago. Whites, Blacks and Racist Democrats is a modified version of the author's previous book: The Drama of Obama Regarding Racism." An interesting read: https://www.amazon.com/Whites-Blacks-Racist-Democrats-Perryman/dp/1935359304 For me; it's not about party lines. It's about how you were raised. As for the Senator; me thinks college football coaches can get away with murder. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
