It is fun to think that someday we may move further into space on something like that space station.

That stuff does not interest me at all. I'd rather see green trees with room to move about. Don't like closed places anyway.....You know what they say about 100 submariners who go on a six month deployment......after six months 50 couples come out of the sub.....and from there they move to the Pacific Northwest to become councilman, senators, congress transgenders...then they make the laws that fit them, knowing well that the populace won't fight back because you know why? They are all same sex couples too! :lol: -------- :D ---6--- :D

Yea, S.E.Pa is ugly, I agree Blaine..just took this pic yesterday off the roof when I was cleaning the chimney. Something better...I paid it off in 1994.

Now, I did not say that I wanted to go to a space station. Remember that female astronaut who wore diapers and drove all night to try to kill her boyfriend's wife? Not all couples on those are same sex. Additionally, the only Submariner whom I knew was married and straight. He has passed on, and he used to work at the VA in Dallas. Of course, after Oblamer ordered that more openly gay persons were to be allowed in to the military the number of Oblamer supporters went up. The Chancellor at University of Texas is a former S.E.A.L. and an Oblamer lover. Yes, some of the Navy's toughest are anti-American and pro-Gay if he is any example. Also, remember when H. Juaquin Jackson wrote his memoirs about his time in the Texas Rangers. He stated that he did not think civilians should own guns of any type. That got him voted out of the Board of Directors of the NRA. I was in the 82nd Airborne and was Infantry. My belief is that civilians need armament because too many in the military are either elitist drug abusers or Tackleberry types. Carlos Hathcock, Tom Custer(2 time CMOH awardee), Alvin C. York, and Tibor Rubin(1 CMOH, 8 times put in for it but his AntiSemitic First Sergeant blocked 7 of them) would all have wanted civilians to own guns. The best are never against civilians owning fireaems.

People here on this board over analyze too much into the words that others write.

This whole country is beautiful...at least the Mother Nature part of it...I can't see where a city is beautiful.....Life is what you make out of it and if your in a pelosi hole of some type, you probably put yourself in it.-----6

Six....respectfully ( and I do mean that) A huge number of older people on the west coast didn't move into a "Poop Hole", and once you've been established for forty years don't want to move...for a varity of reasons. None of which has anything whatsoever to do with being a RINO or an attraction to Gay Sex.
You've lived in one small, desireable area all your life. I pray for your sake it doesn't turn into a pelosi hole because the wrong people move in and outnumber the conservatives. You can bluster and posture all you want, but once you're outnumbered, you're screwed and you can write your politicans all you want and they will not give a dang because they don't care about the people that vote against the.. You're high and dry for the time being....Savor it while you can. :wink:

Here's a little dose of reality, Six...."Our" people are losing ground in your state.

Well said Blaine.

I have a bunch of cousins who moved west. One family of them that was there since the 50's. About evenly split politically. One of the girls married a gentleman who came legally from south of the border. They're the most conservative of the bunch. Three of her five boys are already in the military and at least one plans to make it a career. We've discussed the problems of their state at length but when the rubber hits the road it's their home. They would rather stay and work for change than flee. I can also understand those who are tired of fighting it and just want to live their life the way they want. The ones who annoy me are the ones who leave but take their screwy politics with them

The answer is fighting fire with fire. The socialists know they have lost on the 2nd Amendment, so they are using the courts to put up road blocks on ammo, and other issues they know they can get past their bought and paid for judges. We have SCOTUS for awhile. I hope we can make good use out of it.
A bit of civil unrest is also called for.

Hey Blaine...your late....Pa is already gone. There's three letters that are the reason why Pa was red in the presidential election...HRC....she is despised here. I'm just busting' balls with you on your States political moves...
This COUNTRY is gone. The Dems type of people be the majority by 2044 so if you have 95% of them and 40% of the anglos voting blue, it's over..I know that. Look at Colorado...when my son moved there in 92 it was a solid red state....then the Kalifornia sold their houses for millions, moved to Colorado, paid cash for their houses, and brought their liberalism with them. It's Denver that's solid blue..the rest of the state is conservative.

Where I live it was solid red up to the early nineties... so much to the point you could not get a job at the Media Courthouse (seat of Delaware county) unless you were a registered Republican.....I walked through there not long ago and by the looks of the workers, it's all blue.

When the universities started brainwashing back in the twenties and with the grade schools doing it now, it's done. My guess is that after Donald Trump, we are never again going to see a republican president and even if we do, the other two branches of the government will be blue.

The middle class is all but gone. Whites are getting degrees and within ten more years the jobs they went to college for will be paying about what a low class blue collar job pays now..the blue collar worker will be getting the wages of a ditch digger. The ditch digger will be trying to sneak into Mexico for better benefits and when the pelosi hits the fan, it will all be too late because by then, people will have turned in their guns to feed their stomachs......a third or half of the country will die by a microbe, along with the rest of the world's population being decimated by 60% and it will start all over again as history repeats itself. People will once again become conservative ..women will know their roles better, jobs will be given to intelligent people instead of race...it will be like 1950 all over again.

One thing for sure, half the population needs to die as we have outgrown this earth and destroyed most of what it took millions of years for the earth to make.

My only wish is to see Hillary Clinton die before I do and hopefully it will be a miserable long painful type of cancer. Her and that husband of hers...he already looks like he has aids.

And another thing....pretty much common knowledge that life is hard, harder than it was when I was young back around 1970. Life has always been hard but not the "hard" we have today. Many people cannot handle the high tech world and that's why suicides are at an all time high....most everyone I know takes antidepressants because it's tough...if you don't have money, where are you gonna live....either with mom or dad or in the ghetto. Apartments around here are $1500 a month and it takes more than a hamburger job to pay the rent on that.

The government has it fixed to the point if you inherited ..say $100 K, by the time you get your share, it's about half as the government and its countless other so called entities have their hand out for their share.

Drive on 95 going to Philly? Better take a nerve pill and carry a gun on the seat. People will run you off the road. It's crazy out there. Even on my country road, people will climb up your azz even if your doing 10 miles and hour over the speed limit. Get to a stop sigh or a light and they beep the horn, then pass you on a double yellow.

I seldom leave the house anymore as I'm not on the road for two minutes and my bp jumps twenty points.---6

I've said it before, I'll say it again and I've said it for years- PEOPLE SUCK!
couple years ago our road was repaved, this road had not been paved end to end in over 30 years. The folks traveling it decided that they could go as fast as they wanted. Few of the neighbors jumped on the police to do something. Finally a speed limit was imposed, 35mph. Still too high for the skill level that 'pass' a drivers test. I kept seeing the same young woman daily going like a bat outta heck. Finally I flagged her down and started reading her the riot act. She got uppity so I said to her fine go as fast as you like, I hope that you hit a deer in your little car and that it comes through your windshield and kicks the krap outta you while it bleeds to death in your lap. Guess what? Now she drives the road 10 mph under the limit. Just needed a swift kick to her reality! People DONT care about anyone but themselves, they have no self respect and they are always in a rush to be somewhere else.
