More legislative shenanigans by Al Carlson

[56BISON73]

I didn’t think it could get any dumber than “Democrats used to be racist too, but then they wussed out on us” but there you go proving me wrong.

I would explain it to you but I dont have the crayons or the time.

So what you are saying is politics are back in play at BV?

No. Unless you think neo-Confederatism is a valid political concern.

I've never had a problem with non-partisan politics myself, but people just can't leave that crap alone because it's the only way they know to view the world. And that's a shame. I mean, just look at the shit people are telling me I think. Herschel Walker and Clarence Thomas? When I have ever mentioned those guys?

Here's what I will say: The US is stronger because of having rural areas and urban areas. They all contribute to a greater whole than the separate parts.

Edit for no reason: MONKEY POX! in a British accent.

booooooooooooooomer buuuuuuuuuuuurn!

Weren't those Confederates, you know the ones that everyone here is down on, for the most part Democrats? The ones in favor of secession, slavery, etc. ....Scotty.

Times change and many Democrats switched parties when the Voting Rights Act was passed. Are the Gophers one of the best football teams in the country because they have 7 national championships?

Yep—and not much has changed. To this day they despise successes of African Americans/Black people. Heck, just Google Biden’s nonsensical attack of Clarence Thomas during Thomas’s Supreme Court nomination process, or, if you’re looking for a more modern attack, take a look at what they are doing to Herschel Walker in one of Tony’s confederate states—Georgia.

Herschel's problem is that he's been caught lying several times and he's actually not that bright, in spite of his status in the community. It has nothing to do with his race unless you make it so.

He lies about his lies. Lied about graduating from college, and then lied about lying about graduating from college. Impressive actually.

Yeah, it was like one of those Freaky Friday kinda things, right? Kinda weird.

I get that there's a lot of shameful shit in the history of BOTH parties. What difference does it really make. Perhaps folks could focus on getting shit done rather than focusing on gotcha political nonsense.

I remember one of my best friends saying what an a-hole Woodrow Wilson was, and I argued with him. That's what not teaching true history does to you - it makes me cringe even decades later. I do like to argue though just for the intellectual stimulation which is why I occasionally post extremely provocative things (but true reflections of my opinions at the time.)

The world would probably be a much better place if everybody was like Hammersmith (i.e. thoughtful), but, obviously, I'd settle for much less, including from myself.
