  1. Agreed, they are really going to miss Obama "Not only has he been unable to pass federal gun legislation – effectively leaving it to the states to take the helm for the most part – but his presidency has seen gun sales hit record highs. Getting exact gun sale data is tricky: Rather than track sales specifically, the FBI keeps a tally of the number of background checks for gun-related purchases that are processed in the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS). The National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF), a firearms industry trade association, adjusts that data, for instance by removing checks that don’t result in sales, because it feels that is the best proxy for sales. According to the adjusted NSSF data, there were 847,808 guns purchased during the month that Obama was sworn in for his first term in 2009, compared with 655,143 guns sold that month the previous year. Fast-forward four years to January 2013, and gun purchases for the month were recorded at 1,790,154."
  2. On the flip side, there appears to be more gun purchases amongst liberals. That is a good thing, liberals and conservatives, slinging lead together at the range.
  3. It is more than a "pigeon-hole". The oceans as a whole can either be out gassing our up taking, they can not be doing both.
  4. Those were corrected by processes inherent in a free and unbiased media. Tell that to Richard Jewell and Darren Wilson.
  5. With all of the feigned outrage over fake news, it is worth noting that traditional media sources are filled with demonstrably false narratives. Think Duke lacrosse, and UVA fraternity rape cases
  6. For the first time in years I could buy unlimited.22LR at Walmart. Happy days are here again. As much as I hate Trump, it looks as if he will usher in a period of reduced paranoia
  7. Sorry my bad, I clicked on a link with a Minnesota elector being replaced because he voted for Bernie. Sorry for my confusion.
  8. That was a Democratic elector Bill. It is understandable that she looked as if she was about to throw up, she was being compelled to vote for HRC.
  9. What are you talking about? There can be nothing more magnanimous that creating a nonprofit to support those who were emotionally scarred by this past election! Did you even watch the video?
  10. https://m.youtube.com/watch?autoplay=1&v=X9-5fYFjrbs
  11. Interesting read. Kind of throws a monkey wrench in the whole AGW theory.
  12. You may now add "looser" to your count.
  13. What is going on in North Carolina is both democratic and constitutional, unsavory perhaps, but by definition, constitutional and democratic.
  14. Of Depends undergarments sold on the west coast and northeast. I'm just saying...
  15. News flash! Russia is no longer communist!
  16. Can you name that enemy? That is easy, CANADA! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=DBpgcZ1zYJs&autoplay=1
  17. Here's an idea- $500 Million dollar X-prize to whomever cracks He-3 fusion. How about a patent for whomever cracks He-3 fusion? She makes even more money and it costs nothing to incentivize? Capitalism at its best!
  18. All the more important that we do not squander scarce resources on electric cars, windmills and solar panels. Yucca should move forward now that Harry Reid is out of power.
  19. I have a MBA so I'm pretty sure I have a grasp of supply and demand. That said I know the EPA is not the only player. EPA administrator Secretary Pruitt will end the war on carbon, Interior Secretary Zinke will open up federal lands to oil and gas production, Department of Energy Perry will take the focus off of expensive and unreliable renewables and put it on inexpensive and reliable carbon based energy. The terrific triumvirate if you will.
  20. It is the best part because if he gets approved, he will end the EPA's phony war on carbon. That will bring back oil, gas and coal jobs, drive down energy costs, make American industry more competitive and hurt our enemies without firing a shot. I would say that is a pretty big "best part."
  21. He is a business man not a tree hugger. Take a look at the cabinet, it looks like he will let reality trump ideology.
  22. Maybe Trump will let Ivanka oversee the EPA. Nope, Scott Pruitt, a climate denier from the oil patch who has sued the EPA. The best part is the Dems are powerless to stop him because of a rule change they pushed through.
  23. "Righties" won the Presidency, the House, the Senat and will have a conservative Supreme Court for at least a generation. (Justice Ted Cruz anyone?) The Dems are left with Pelosi and a greatly diminished Chuck Schumer (thank you Harry Reid) Who's crying in their beer now?
  24. Wow you guys are pathetic, I would say you are damaged and sad but that would get me a time out so I won't.
