The republican controlled states look nice in the city/town centers and tourist areas (maintained by cheap labor, illegals), but the rest of the state is a shit-hole. There are more homeless in the republican states (weather a factor, and republicans don't support "services"). Jobs pay more in Democrat states. Partially why cost of living is higher. Why do you think medical school costs so much today? Because doctors get paid a lot of money today.
The Electoral College should be gone. It worked for the most part back in the day when most people lived either on the east or west coasts. Now plenty of people live in the middle of the country. It's just not needed anymore. Plus, gerrymandering allows elections to be stolen. Every other election is decided by whomever gets the highest number of votes, I don't see why President shouldn't be any different. If you want to keep the Electoral College, then every state should have the number of senators and representatives that represent it based on population. North Dakota has a population of 672,591 people. California has a population of 37,253,956 people. Yet both have two senators. The system needs to be updated.
More shit, starting from the opening sentence.
Put down the Koolaid and step away from the pitcher.
I am going to do you a small favor - I am going to tell you how to begin to think about things...
Begin by ditching your ideological trappings, whatever they may be - stop thinking about things in terms of Left/Right, Liberal/Conservative, Democrat/Republican.
Instead, think of Urban vs Suburban/Rural.
Got that?
Now, explain San Francisco.
If you can manage to effectively blame that on the Right/Conservative/Republican contingent, go no further - you're beyond salvation.
Once you've properly concluded why San Francisco is the way it is, think again about the Electoral College and try to defend doing away with it.
Do it now.
Oh yeah!!! I don't drink koolaid. Only water and Irish Whiskey.
San Francisco is in California. It is crowded and expensive to live at. It has a large gay community. It's very hilly. Some great movies have been filmed there (Bullitt and Dirty Harry). Their football team is the 49ers and baseball the Giants. It has had some major earthquakes.
What does the Electoral College have to do with San Francisco?

I would respectfully suggest that the dearth of responses is for similar reason that no one talks to a stone or answers the door for Mormon missionaries.
As for San Francisco, kinda of a testament to greed and bigotry with an added course of mental illness. I will say this to the ether though that the word "conservative" is rarely used outside of politics in anything other than a mildly pejorative way. Just saying something to maybe ruminate on, ether.

Heh MacGyver, here's an idea. Look at the facts and then form your own opinion. It may turn out to be wrong but at least it will be yours.

Interesting response Idol, isn't that the reason why we have Antifa and White Nationalists??
Here is a very true story from a conversation yesterday with my son.....
He went to a Halloween party with his girlfriend, about 40 people and the majority of them were Gay.. I asked him if he
felt uncomfortable?? And he said that is the problem...................

Really Idol, are you actually reading/watching what the Democrats want??
Are you saying the Republicans don't want to give more freedom and more choice??
Take out the Green New Deal, because it is a fantasy!!!, now look at the rest between both parties, and who wants to give
more choice to the people??
I know a lot of this pipe dream shit will be gone from the Dems, once they have a nominee, but wow!!!!!
Here is the media in a nutshell....
Republicans are White Nationalists...
Democrats are Antifa....
Both have Moderates in the Middle!!!!! I like to find a news or media outlet that speaks to them.........
-
Re: What's on your mind ?
Idol: On a real good positive note.....
I just saw this came up buddy, and i know you are a fan;)
"Monty Pythons Flying Circus S01 REMASTERED BDRip" also in 720p and 1080p as well......
Wow!!! This originally aired over 50 years ago!!!!!
-
Re: What's on your mind ?
Not big on remastered stuff that doesn't really need remastering.Kinda, sorta like colourization. Things lose a bit of their authenticity.
Also Graham Chapman was gay.

What does the Electoral College have to do with San Francisco?
I like Irish whiskey myself, but prefer American bourbon.
Okay, you've googled Frisco.
Do you have the first idea why it's so fucked-up?
I guessing not.
What can you tell me about the Founding of America?
What do you know about the intent of the Electoral College?
Guessing that's another goose egg.
Google isn't the answer for you, either.

To be honest to both of you, i prefer and only believe if i see or speak to the people that are really on the ground there and
experiencing it.....
All news today is bullshit and the younger generations are really seeing that, and i am talking about the ones with brains and
work for a living, not the ones sitting at home looking for handouts!!. And those parents should be ashamed of themselves
allowing it!!!!
Again, luv to find a media outlet, that actually shows the Moderates perspective...
True story.... Having a conversation on many things with my son, he says he listens to a lot of Pod casts to get information, and
different perspectives of the world.......
He may be on to something there:), because he literately says the news medias are totally full of shit!!!!!....

1. I'm not a lefty. 2. I have a degree in mathematics and have used math most of my working life. So FU.
Take Texas and Florida, and add one more shit-hole redneck state and you control the election. That is exactly what republicans have been doing for the last twenty years. At one point until just recently they controlled 37 states. It's how they stole the 2016 election (gerrymandering and voter suppression). Why do you think Moscow Mitch wouldn't let Obama pick a replacement for Scalia? They knew the fix was in. Bullshit congressional hearings one after another on Benghazi and email server. Talk about wasting MILLIONS of taxpayer money. Can't win an election on their own merit. Need to use conspiracy theories and lies to take down opponent. Something they learned from Christianity (and other religions).
I still don't see how San Francisco or any other city has to do with the Electoral College.

Re: What's on your mind ?
The question you should really be asking yourself is how can you possible support the kind of people you seem to be supporting? These by anyone's definition are not good people, not in the slightest.

Trump supporters don't deal in facts, only talking points they have placed in their heads by the conservative media.

Really.I assume you saw this right.....
Attachment 183504
Ratings prove this, and i would assume you can attach that to votes, don't you agree.....
Attachment 183505
I honestly don't understand Idol.. I am not sure if you are just a compulsive complainer??. But i will say that you were
born and raised in a place that you really dislike, or at least come across that way???
Did you ever think of moving somewhere else and planting your feet?? Somewhere that would be better living???
Honestly.....
I will say this to American's that post here. it amazes me that American's want out and immigrants want in!!!
What is wrong with that picture???

Re: What's on your mind ?
You can't watch Fox news and then complain about other outlets lack of fact or objectivity. As for who I suggest, I've said it before, simply run someone more ethical than people like Trump or McConnell or Jordan or etc.
Got nothing against conservatives per se only crooks and con men. Fuck, Eisenhower and Teddy Roosevelt were both pretty far right and both were good Presidents. Even Bush Jr showed on occasion he cared about someone other than himself.

You know what Idol, what i had posted before will never get into your head.....
If there was a poll tomorrow on all the people that voted for Trump, and asked do they think he says things that are
inappropriate??!!! The answer would be yes!!!!!
But the most important question is to Trump voters as well as Moderate Democrats,and even the fucking Left that hates
him!!!!!, Are you better off financially now since Trump was president??!!! They will all say fucking yes!!!!!!
End of fucking story........

Re: What's on your mind ?
Let me put it another way. Anyone would be a step up from many of the current people representing the Republicans now. Literally, the absolute worst of humanity outside of murderers and child predators.
Sorry I forgot about Roy Moore so leave it at murderers.
Btw I've admitted to bias by the left media but they are also bias against people like Saunders and I unlike you can back my facts up with actual, you know, facts. As for Fox News, their sin and I'm speaking only to the actual increasingly small, increasingly under pressure from management news division and not the opins which many people don't know or care to differentiate about and whose sins are many , but the news sin is mostly one of omission. Something that you're always complaining about. I ask you this, if Fox is so pure to the true then why did Shep Smith quit?
PS Economy is not most important if the environment is destroyed by it and mainly for the profit of a few at the very top because regulations mostly only cut into the bottom line and effect fuck all else if you don't count the animals and the trees.

Re: What's on your mind ?
Seriously, I would prefer not to fight but at some point as a decent person I feel obliged to push back against the terrible. I'd really rather talk about literally anything excluding electronic music which is measurably still worse than Trump even if he does kill someone on 5th Avenue. :)

Just because you don't like something doesn't means it's bad. Take brussel sprouts for example.
Trump should consider using this as his 2020 slogan.

Interesting....So you see it going PPV a bit quicker than others?? I wonder how much they get from say Netflix or Hulu??
Did you go see it??

Re: What's on your mind ?
I saw the trailer and I'm thinking you would need to pay me to go see it in a theatre. No joke.
Two things I hate in movies, over the hill action stars (including Linda Hamilton here) and a reliance on special effects over all else.
Maybe if it was 1980 and they still had at least the sense to make the female terminator hot as fuck and not androgynous lesbo.

I almost agree.
With regard to Trump's ill-advised comment, what do you think about Bill Clinton?
He never joked about killing - not for public consumption, at any rate - but he and the lovely and gracious Hillary instigated several-times-several instances of Arkancide...

What can you say really.... The proof was in the pudding that Trump was the better And so were the polices .What was even funnier was when they
posted Trump's letter he sent to Erdogan:lol:...
Also you don't see in the media how pissed Putin is that Trump is Guarding the Oil in Syria, because Trump is so friendly with Russia, you know colluding
LOL!!!
Clinton would have given the oil to Putin fucked the Kurds!!, and just made sure a few million went into her Foundation.. Just like she did with the Uranium
from Iran.....
But hey, she is a Democrat so :D
NOPE!!! That was all lies posted on Left wing media outlets!!!, that makes it true LOL!!!!

FiftyOne bikes are insanely expensive. They personally interview you about your life and build your frame themed on it. They don't even list approximate prices on their website. If you have to ask you can't afford it sort of thing.

Initially saw the gold and the 'oversized' frame and thought "tacky ego bike". Watched the vid and kinda drooled a bit...
Definitely an amazing bike, and pretty cool supporting the local business and connection to home/kid/neighborhood.
