The Virginia Gov race

[GrayWaterCanine]

Thank you... and I will be fine. I have been avoiding the politics forum the last few days because I acted like such a **** last week, and because we had a pretty big win yesterday, and I've been on the football forum, but I've read all the words of encouragement and appreciate them all. Even if I haven't replied to them. Thanks... and Go Vols!

I assumed the politics forum existed for us all to piss off one another.

You can do that in the football forum as well.

More fun here, you can poke a little harder. Nothing rubs most people worse then stepping on their politics or religion.

People got pretty heated when I called our beloved Vols out for not wanting to play Army.

You shut up , we don’t need that kind of negativity here in political forum .

Because it was a dumb post

Racism, drink!

Racism, drink!

My favorite response to this idiotic "progress" argument:

'But progress means getting nearer to the place you want to be. And if you have taken a wrong turning, then to go forward does not get you any nearer. If you are on the wrong road, progress means doing an about-turn and walking back to the right road; and in that case the man who turns back soonest is the most progressive man.' - CS Lewis

We are very, very clearly on the wrong road.

This is a little pickmeup for those downtrodden over various losses across the country.


Democrats Net 30+ Seats Statewide in Municipal Elections - Democratic Party of Georgia

In Georgia’s November 2, 2021 statewide municipal elections, Democrats gained a net total of more than 30 seats and counting, including mayorships in Cairo, Stone Mountain, Hampton, and McDonough and crucial city council seats in Lawrenceville, Peachtree Corners, Sandy Springs, Tucker, Stone Mountain, Dunwoody, Brookhaven, Kennesaw, and Powder Springs.

How bad are things when you're crowing about winning mayor and city council seats in BFE Georgia? I don't even know why these elections are partisan in the first place.

Racism, drink!

So the implication is that college educated white women were more racist in 2020 than 2021?

Because you came off as a whiner. Much like you do when someone’s mentions waiting tables isn’t a highly skilled job

Probably on par with being a cop as far as skill level.

Yes totally the same to bring food as to know law, defensive tactics, deescalation, social services and more lol

I think there is a very broad range in skill in this job.

Inner city cop is probably very well trained and at the highest level.

Rural cop with a city of 50 is probably not.

Somewhere there falls the wealthy suburban cop and it’s not closer to the inner city side.

I have met a few cops who honestly did not know the law.

I think the best cops end up moving to detective.

Hey Northam..Next Halloween you have revert options with no consequence

Meanwhile somewhere in Virginia, Terry McAullife is still trying to figure out how to light a BBQ grill

I'll miss Governor Blackface for the endless memes.

What's the the statute of limitations for not letting people live things down? Is there a specific amount of time, or is anything one may find opportune fair game?

6 months to a year. Unless a Bama, UGA, or Florida fan, then there is no limit.

So Northam entered the "just let it go" phase of his mistake long ago.
