Your grammar was the least of your problems.

Dunno how they will force him to sign it... But that is not the problem I have with it.

Virginia Sens. Mark Warner and Tim Kaine, both Democrats, along with Republican Sens. Cory Gardner of Colorado, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Johnny Isakson of Georgia, plan to formally roll out a Senate resolution later Wednesday that forcefully condemns the violence in Charlottesville while “rejecting white nationalists, white supremacists, the Ku Klux Klan, neo-Nazis and other hate groups.”

Too vague. Who or what will they define as "other hate groups"? In a year? In five years?
Sorry, that's a blank check.

Annoyed has stated over and OVER and OVER again, that parents like that should not be pro-creating. Dead-beat dad (can't hold a job..makes excuses about his health, and managed to either quit from being too tired or got fired for being TOO slow..) and a mom who only had the kids to get FREE meals for the family (WIC type program), until the kids reached a certain age.

Annoyed also says men and women have to take responsibility for their actions when doing the horizontal tango and the woman gets pregnant.

Cause by your logic, the woman should have not had the children or perhaps chosen abortion to finish school or whatever, and make sure she can prevent. But the way you describe it, it doesn't look like she's the maternal type to ever have children in the first place. Since they are more like a burden than a joy to have, like how she doesn't want to be responsible for them.

Seriously, currently, he needs to be put into a "special needs" class because he can't do math, doesn't read or right properly, and instigates trouble when he gets too bored. At least, he might be able to graduate if he was put into a "special needs" program.

Sounds to me like this kid is crying out for attention, so instead of treating him like a delinquent moron, perhaps you should get him some help. Have him tested for any attention disorders, or have him submit an IQ test.

Kinda like how "there are good people on both sides"...

[Annoyed]

No, kinda like we've already seen run of the mill (NOT Extremists/facists/KKK/etc.) Trump supporters or conservatives in general described as "hate groups" by some people on the left.

This is exactly how the term used to describe illegals was changed to "undocumented" over a long period of time. In 5-10 years, will we see all Republicans described as members of hate groups? Many on the left see it that way already.

Heard of yet another bombing on a Tube train in London.. Attacker still on loose, 28 injured..

Thoughts and prayers to those wounded.

It doesn't help when republicans defend the KKK and nazis.

I do wish that particular bunch would find some other home. They're embarrassing.

[Gatefan1976]

They have found a home, the social arm of the TEA party and Evangelicals.
They are trumps core base.
They are the Deplorables.

I wish we could get Reagan style republicans back.

A far better response than this one:

It just boggles my mind how people just get the wrong impression of trump and his supporters, they are just so wrong.......... /sarcasm.

[Gatefan1976]

I wouldn't mind Reagan era Democrats either.

Why am I not surprised that the favoured method of destruction was a good old fashioned burning......

To the tune of American pie................

A long, long time ago
I can still remember how
The madman used to make me smile
And I knew if we gave a chance
That Trump could make the right wing dance
Surely they'd be happy for awhile

But DACA deals have made me shiver
And no wall yet, he's not delivered
Bad news on the doorstep
He's made me just some poor schlep

I can't remember if I cried
When I saw the MAGA hats get fried
Something touched me deep inside
The day, that MAGA, died
So

Bye bye snake oil salesman guy
put our faith in you Donnie but your just telling lies
And good old boys were burning hats and they fried
Singing this'll be the day MAGA died
This'll be the day MAGA died..........


Not finished yet, but not bad for 10 minutes..............
