  1. Actually voter IDs do not do anything at all to cut fraudulent voting from where it almost always actually occurs. That being said, I'm not against voter ID at all if the IDs are free and very easy for all citizens to get one. If they aren't it is a de facto Poll Tax.
  2. Read you own citations. Forms were submitted. NO fraudulent votes occurred or at least no one can find ONE. Do you notice no fraudulent votes were mentioned in the articles you cited? Read your link. VOTES
  3. An ACTUAL fraudulent vote from ACORN illegal acts is what no one has produced. Note the words ACTUAL fraudulent vote... Not someone submitting obviously bad names that then are weeded out by the appropriate government official. Those names can't be weeded out except after ACORN handed them over.... you know, following the law and all that. BTW, wth is this "former member" crap? I've always had one membership...never had another one. Iv'e never said this to a post before but that is just ignorant at best but likely just dumb. I promise you this woman worked harder in her l
  4. She doesn't travel or stay in hotels, she doesn't ever need to cash a check, doesn't need or use credit cards, has had the same utilities turned on since way before she stopped needing a license since she is physically unable to drive... You act as if everyone is between 16 and 55 and no one lives a long way from places you need to go to get state issued IDs, no one lives where almost no one needs a driver license (ever hear of New York City?,)... And that voter ID requirement does absolutely nothing nada zilch to prevent the real source of fraudulent voting. Also, the bulk of the
  5. I said the large majority of voter fraud comes from absentee ballots. That is simply true. You drew the conclusion that it is Republicans doing it... perhaps logically... before denying it happens. You also capitalize on a popular myth. I (years ago) asked for anyone to give me ONE instance of a fraudulent vote being cast because of Acorn doing something wrong from ANY election ANYWHERE in this country . No one has produced evidence of this EVER happening. ACORN was used as scapegoats/fallguys because the lies about them causing voter fraud are simply just that. Lies. Popular
  6. My mother-in-law is a retired hard-working first generation German-American who never asked anyone for anything she didn't work for. She now has MS and hasn't driven for years and could not vote in the last election because she has no recent photo id. It is difficult for her to leave the house for any reason but she would vote except for the fake effort (photo id) to end voter fraud. I say fake because anyone who actually looks into the matter soon discovers that almost ALL voter fraud comes from absentee balloting. Since absentee ballots are more likely Republican voters and the most lik
  7. If the Minimum Wage had grown along with inflation and GDP, it would be MUCH larger than it is today. It would be more than $12.50/hour. Worker share of GDP is lower right now than in generations. Real wages peaked in the US in 1971. The ability or likelihood of Americans moving upward in economic status is much better in several other countries now. It is a damn shame. It goes along with the undeniable fact that when you consider ALL taxes, the lower income classes pay a larger share of total taxes paid than we did before 1986. The middle-class and poor just have way too much accordi
  8. View Postmojo413, on 04 July 2013 - 05:36 AM, said: Has former member been reintroduced as "Well Read"? You guys are funny... unless you're serious. Then you are just "wrong."
  9. There are 4 places I know of in or close to Dallas. Hiram Station and The Phoenix are in the same parking lot, Dallas Billiards in the old Plaza (better tables) and the Senior Citizens Center (also has good tables.) The best place and not too far away is Stix in Villa Rica. The tables are pro-grade ( high end tables with Simonis cloths and pockets are tight) and both proprietors are current professional players. At Stix, you get free pool during the week if you buy lunch. The food is good as well.
  10. Good post. Most pedophilia is from heterosexuals... that doesn't make heterosexuality bad either. You are 100% right. Seems odd having to say that stuff when it is kind of self-evident.
  11. I saw the same info on the H2 Channel in a documentary. It is stated as an average. OP is right. But there were soldiers in both wars that never saw action and some that saw horrific action that went on for a lot longer than 10 days. My uncle was in a WW2 Tank Killer platoon that was in really hot action for a long time without food except for whatever dogs, etc they could run across. He was in a VA hospital for physical injuries only for 2 years after he left the European theater and was is several battles with the hottest action while there. He didn't get any medals because of an oversight.
  12. Someone dropped a 38 pound female dog with parts of a chain embedded in its neck. Someone had ripped the rest of it out and thankfully stopped where they did. Dr. (Warren) Judy masterfully removed the rest of the chain with minimal discomfort to the dog. She is doing great now. There is no better dog as far as attitude and gratitude. BTW, she is short-haired and a very neat dog. We estimate her age at 3-4 years. We are finishing getting her ship-shape and she will be ready for adoption soon. She is chipped, spayed, and very sweet. If you could help find her a good permanent home, please

    What?

    Watched it years ago. Its re-used/recycled to promote the same lie periodically. Its not a parable he was using. Years ago, apparently he had read the book just before he spoke about the tipping point of adding too much stress to the environment of Guam. He was not being literal about the island physically flipping over.
  14. rbpls

    What?

    Again, anyone who thinks Hank Johnson thought the island of Guam would physically tip over is acting like a 10 year old intentionally misunderstanding adult conversation. If you really still believe that he meant that, you are intentionally misunderstanding to be obtuse or you don't understand alliteration or illustrative symbolic language. Do you think the Bible really means you should cut your hand off after you masturbated? It says so the same way Hank Johnson said Guam would roll over. Something tells me you still have both hands... though it's just an educated guess.
  15. rbpls

    What?

    I am not that familiar with Hank Johnson's record but have seen some pretty dim-witted and undeserved criticism of him. There are some people doltish enough, for instance, to think he actually thought Guam would physically flip over. That is just plain freaking stupid...I mean to believe he thought that.
  16. I thought Chicken Lips are just as rare as Hen's teeth.
  17. Carry out only but "Hiram Shell Food Mart" (next to M&M Package) has good wings (again, to go only.)
  18. Another common one.... height is h-long I-t Lots of folks say h-long I-th...no th sound in the word.
  19. How about "an historical" instead of "a historical..." "An" is correct with the vowel sound thus "an honorable"... Just chaps my hide....
  20. Consider a low price blu-ray player that has built in wi-fi. I've been using a Vizio blu-ray that came with 2.4 and 5.0 gig wi-fi adapters built in. Walmart has had a fine blu-ray player that streams lots of services for $88. You'll get some free movies from Vudu to boot. Vizio has provided firmware updates that improve functionality and adds new streaming services twice since I bought my player about 4 months ago.
  21. Here's a good way to explain it. That guy was not a Christian. Hitler was not a Christian. Osama Bin Laden was not a Muslim. Republicans of the last 30 years are not fiscal conservatives. All true. Now you can cherry pick/take out of context verses from the Bible or the Koran and find justification for killing non-believers. Problem is, you stop being Christian or Muslim when you blaspheme against the real message in both religions. As for mentioning that it was Republicans fighting against slavery in the Civil War, you should be aware that non-Republican soldiers from e
  22. Aldi stores are the epitome of real conservative efficiency. I haven't seen the nastiness some found but they could have arrived just before the cleaning started. Good fair prices. I haven't done my own research to verify but I've been told they are the biggest chain in the world. I believe they own Trader Joe's? They do much more right than wrong. I'm glad to see one coming.
