Default The DNC.

I am a stubborn mofo, BUT, I am always interested in opposing opinions and attempting to see things through other's eyes. I have made no less than 4 attempts to watch the Ringling Brother's Barnum and Bailey Convention and I just can't do it. It's like staring at the sun. You HAVE to look away.

I watched women weeping like the Beatles were on Ed Sullivan. I truly thought it would be just a matter of time before the snake handling began and a girl in a wheelchair would be made to walk again.

It frightens me that so many...SO MANY people can be fed so much bullchit and come back for a second helping.

I can't do it, either. My conservative leanings and sensibilities simply won't allow it. SMDH.

They don't have to be conservative sensibilities to make it impossible. ANY sensibility makes it agonizing.

If I didn't know better I would think it was a comedic parody made with actors and a make believe storyline.

Pandering like a BOSS.

"Hey, we noticed there are no flags" ....Poof suddenly flags.

"Hey, why no mention of ISIS? " ... Biden replies "we're not done talking yet".

So there will be mention of ISIS... and how Trump created them from groups of disgruntled employees that he made homeless.

people who vote are weak minded sheep with no identity. And they only vote for whoever will put more money in their pocket and whoever has the same world view as them. Thats my side of things since you asked

btw I love the barnum and bailey its absolutly amazing show. Worth he 50 bucks per ticket. Matter of fact I would pay 200 to see it

Yeah I saw that too. Not long ago there was some twentysomething girl who went on a rant on Facebook about the evil Donald Trump and before long, she was blubbering like a 3rd grader who lost her lunch money. It's truly scary is how unbelieveably fragile most people under 30 seem to be. This is the result of the "helicopter parent/everyone gets a trophy" upbringing. I stand firmly behind my previous comment that we'd be in some deep kimchee if we had to rely on these microbes to defend our shores.

It's also a good indicator of why they view Trump's speech as "dark" or "gloomy" or "depressing" as opposed to seeing it as the dose of realism that it was. No bad news for these people...no sir. It's all butterflies and daisies in their worlds.

What's ever more absurd is that in reality, whoever is President has almost no effect on them. If Trump is elected, they won't lose their jobs or their apartments, they'll still drive around in their Nissan Leafs, Starbucks will still be selling all the Caramel Macchiatos they can drink and their parents will continue to pay their cell phone bills. No one has informed these self-described "radicals" (who apparently aren't suffering as they seem to be able to take time off from their jobs to travel to Philadelphia to protest) that because they are not significantly contributing to society, they really don't count.

Unfortunately, they get to vote.
 
All of these punks that think they're really going to get free college tuition or think there is a chance in hell that race relations will improve because they trot their lilly-white asses down to a BLM protest to take sefies for their Facebook page can come talk to me when they've lived another 30 years or so.

IN A WAY, I kind of sympathize with the kids, jobs are HARD to find, the .gov is not hiring ALL the liberal farts grads the way it was 40 years ago, so the kids with or without a 'degree' are on the street looking for work, but the JOBS are all overseas now...how in hell to afford 500/month MINIMUM rent on some apt. making even 15 bux/hour.....??? NFW, not happening.....


SO, ? IS, how to get these kids JOBS and leading into productive lives???

Any young person wants to ensure themselves ample job choice and a living wage needs only put down the textbooks and pick up a service manual. I work in the heavy equipment industry and every shop in our area needs techs desperately. Our shop has even hired "walk ons" with no experience and/or tools in the hope we can grow our own talent. This appears to be an industry wide condition; and it seems younger folk would rather work at a computer screen than use their hands.

dont feel bad. Theres actually alot of jobs today. A buddy of mine called me with a few job interviews he got. 1 job would give him a car and he fixes cell phone creens pays 20 an hour. Another one was 25 an hour same hing gets a car gas paid and $100 a week expense check fixing machines at warehouses that make those plastic strap things that gets put on boxes.

Young kids are just stupid. Its not their fault their stupid its their stupid generation before them that made them stupid. Also women in your era stayed at home spread their legs got fkd and had babies. They stayed home to raise kids. Now their working so their sucking up the job market aswell

Mother's of thugs and felons speak. Mother's of slain police officers? No where in sight.
They fence the building perimeter and ask for photo ID while bitching about Trump's wall against illegals and voter ID.
Hypocrisy at it's finest.

Because the Republicans wanted to piss on the Bush's and the rest of "the establishment" more than they wanted to win the election.

21 year old kid I sold my beloved FRC to today has been running a beer route for nearly 3 years but has hit the ceiling. I talked to him about the HVAC/Electrian trade and if his love for autos prevailed maybe paintless dent/ding removal or straightening bumpers.

Yes, fixing bumpers. My bumper guy makes about $250,000 per year. eek

As usual, when the hammer drops, this is where everyone comes to sit in the corner.
