95% of all elected officials in America....
Does not matter if they are Republican, Democrat, or Independent....
They all have ONE thing in common....
They are either religiously considered a Catholic or Christian.
So.
Maybe it is time to stop blaming the Party.
And start blaming all these problems on it's source.
The Church.

We could take several more left turns.
We could ask, how is it liberals fault that overwhelmingly conservative Nebraska has some of the higher tax rates in the Union (just ask Nebraska taxpayers.)
Why is it that overwhelmingly conservative Texas, won't allow Tesla to sell cars direct to market via government proclamation that they must use dealerships?
Why is it that Austrian school free market economics has two dramatically differing policy prescriptions with von Mises advocating himself as an "extremist for laissez faire" and Hayek is a self described social democrat who argues that the size/scope of government activity doesn't matter so long as the character of that activity is good?
Why is it that Austrian school free market economics has to find a home in the Libertarian party where its relegated to whatever success any of the Ron Paul family might find in the ballot box (read: not much!) and the GOP/mainstream principled conservatives can't stand them even though they'd be natural allies on several economic issues?
The GOP doesn't need any help getting destroyed, its crumbling within. They can't define the product, let alone sell it.
Oh, IBTL

I apologize to jeans15 for where his perfectly good fball thread went.
I'll go back to lurking and getting my Husker fball fix on occasion.
I could just no longer stand back and watch someone that has a screen name that suggests hunting a third of the American population. A screen name no less that is based on a Nazi that has his head carved up by Americans. Its a really clever screen name

Me too, sorry jeans. But its late, and I'm bored, but I still stand by 11-1 is possible
Likey,,,,,,, even liberals can have common sense. But a lot of its how you define the position. I am a liberal ( christian new testament ) - conservative ( To protect country or innocents, will go Dirty Harry on ya if necessary ). Tons of room to be tolerant.
Don't worry, Nebraska is firmly in the Trumpster's column. You needn't fear a liberal takeover here.
That's not true. I will vote for Gary Johnson, thank you very much. I voted for Republicans in the last two general elections, just so you know.
I told him I wasn't going to vote. If I was in a contested state, I'd probably be more motivated, but since I vote GOP, it doesn't make much sense here unless I was really dying to contribute.
The Johnson/Weld ticket I heard is disappointing to Libertarians in general, viewing it as sort of a GOP-lite ticket. But I have never been, nor will probably ever be confused with a Libertarian, so I'm not sure how widespread that feeling is.
Fair enough. There are so many different shades of Libertarian, it's really hard to pin down who is happy with what. I see it as an opportunity to vote for someone besides our other candidates. I'm registered independent and tend to swing conservative but I can't vote for Trump in good conscience.
Yah there are a lot of guys on base having a WTF? type of moment. Probably most especially anyone who considers themselves a social conservative, The Donald really isn't a traditional standard bearer for those issues. I haven't looked it up, but i would predict he might be the only candidate in modern Republican history (whether they won the primary or not) to NOT conform with the social agenda.
"They," meaning climatologists, meterorologists, actual scientists..."changed the name" due to the fact that the general public is too stupid to understand the concept. While the average global temperature IS increasing, other microclimates experience cooling. Then you get dickbags like James Inhofe, chairman of the Senate Environmental Committee, walking into hearings and denying climate change is occurring because he made a snowball.
The Liberal Hunter and Inhofe...birds of a feather.
Wow, you're like Batman! Coming out of the cave to fight such an injustice. You firmly self carved Liberal into your forehead by complaining about a screen name. Odd how Libs claim to be tolerant. See, I like exposing things like this.
All the while ignoring the fact that pretty much everything fat al said "was based on Science" has not come true. Odd how he bought a mansion on a beach that was supposed to disappear. Doubly strange is how my condos on the beach in Florida were supposed the be underwater by now. Did the historical data change? Hmmmm
I especially like how you claim science yet deny science when it comes to boy parts = boy.
Liberals....confused on science, positions and body parts.
Soon, I'm sure, very soon, you will also tell me how science creates organic life from inorganic material., not to mention how sentient, reasoned thought developed from supposedly non sentient random chaos.
The Hunter's trap apparently has the right bait. As Aldo Raine somewhat said..." I'm in the Liberal Hunt'n business and, Partner, business is boom'n!!
******PSA REMINDER for Libs: FREE donuts at Krispy Kreme today. Get some!

And as far as this debate goes...
Man-made global warming is one of the biggest frauds that has ever been perpetrated.

in light of what I'm sure will be a Liberal rush for the FREE donuts....
While you are getting ready to head out and are putting on your Che Guevara garb to make your social statement DO NOT FORGET:
You can't be a DouCHEBag without a little Che!
Now THAT is some seriously provable science....

I hope you're right. Oregon is one of the last teams you want to go against with a young D-Line. I think we can be both teams, but offense has to be great. We need the run game to look completely different than last year.
It's interesting from a behavioral study standpoint to read one of these threads and not be involved in it. Basically it always goes like this:
Poster A: This has nothing to do with the thread, but I hate liberals.
Poster B: Me too! Liberals are stupid!
Poster C: Why did you just bring that up? It has nothing to do with the thread. Anyhow, how do you reconcile this set of three facts?
Poster A: (Ignores three facts, does not respond to them) I found something in your post that made me feel a feeling! Liberals are stupid and so are you!
Poster B: Yeah! Typical stupid liberal!
Poster D: You both just ignored the facts you were asked about. Also, what about these two additional facts?
Poster B: Lol we got them liberals mad now! Liberals are always mad. Better get 'em a safe space!
I would be very interested in having the "I'm not voting" and "I'm voting for Gary Johnson" conversation. I've gotten very annoyed with several friends for saying that. These happened to be "Bernie Bros" who want to act like they wouldn't have been totally advocating for Hillary had Bernie never decided to run.
Faced with the real possibility of having to utter the words "President Trump," I regard it as an outright shirking of civic duty not to vote against him. He is wildly unfit for ANY office, let alone the highest office in the nation.

...or at least we need to give the ball to the correct Back! I'd like to think our running game will offset any issues we may have with our DL.
Really kicking myself for reading this entire thread and I usually try to stay out of these.
BUT I had to chuckle on this one. If you're going to attack the people of Christian faith at least know what you're saying. Pretty sure being raised a Catholic means I'm a Christian. Where does the "or" come in?
How has voting liberal worked out for people from underprivileged backgrounds from broken down cities? Cities like Detroit, chicago. Who's running those cities? Tea Party? Republicans? Nope.
I understand you aren't arguing for it, simply pointing out what you think they are. But it's amazing to me that once side can stereotype and if the other side does it...."RACIST! BIGOT!" and that it really matters someone's political stance when they are playing football. I don't watch this team based on their political preference one way or the other. They don't rub it in my face so I won't rub anything in theirs, or care.
True. We'll find out in a few months. A solid running game and we don't finish under 500 last year.
While I won't argue that those cities don't have their share of problems (you forgot Baltimore), it's a complete red herring. It also ignores the fact that southern red states repeatedly score wretchedly in measures of public health, education, and quality of life. So ultimately it's a pissing contest of cherry picking examples of, "Oh yeah, well Chicago is liberal and they have a bad budget!" "Oh yeah? Well Mississippi is super conservative and that whole state is just awful!"
Ok...so we've shown that people of any idealogical background can execute things stupidly. Now what?
More accurately...
95% of elected officials in America are religiously devoted to the idea that government is the solution instead of the problem.
I find it more fascinating that had Trump run as a Dem, he would have been hailed as a Saint...more than likely. You DO use an interesting word...unfit. I prefer that to others that say unqualified. However, the way I see it, his strengths are the opposite of Obama and Obama's are the opposite of his...yet one is unfit...maybe the other is unqualified?
I also think it says a lot about someone that could even remotely vote for HRC with her history.
Guess that's the greatness of a free society. We can disagree all day long.
I'm not a Trump supporter but I won't ever vote for Hillary. I was already put in a predicament like this when Bill Clinton ran the first time because I voted for Ross Perot. And it's the likes of me that helped get Bill Clinton elected. I won't be making that same mistake again so I will vote for Trump. Because anything short of that will be a vote for Hillary.
Well said. This is the problem--Republican or Democrat it's the same. They both want to grow government way too much right now. Republicans used to be for smaller government and some still say they are but it isn't happening any more, hence the conservative tea party movement, etc. The whole reason the good old boys GOP won't get behind Trump is because they know he's going to shake things up and their cushy con game they are playing along with the democrats on the American people will be on the rocks.
As far as the religion comment goes...we live in a Christian nation, and just because a member of the government says they are christian to get elected it doesn't mean it's true...example: Nancy Pelosi says she's a Catholic. Hah.
You aren't troubled in the least by Bernie Supporters? A guy that honeymooned in Russia? A guy that pines for a System proven not to work throughout history? A guy that has no idea how a Socialist Economy may or may not be able to drive a World Economy?
See, it's that stuff that I find so confusing or hypocritical(not necessarily pointed at you!) in general.
Why do you say trump would be hailed as a saint if he ran on the other side of the ticket? Because you think he's playing a character and he would say/do different things if he were playing a dem?
