Trump 'very happy' with this spending bill outlawing a future border wall

Sometimes dinosaurs die off slowly.

Especially those which piss off 50% of your base (customers)

There's no denying a lot of the trouble at TOS is self-inflicted.  JR will always, always deny it, though.

If they are smart, they will sell off before they die off any more. The SEO value of their Google presence alone is worth a few million (example, imagine if someone bought them and ran a script on their db to add banner ads and links on every single post times the hundreds of millions of posts indexed in Google).

Unfortunately for JR, I don't think that will happen. Too bad, he could have a very wealthy and comfortable retirement if he was smart about it.

[INVAR]

And anyway is FR even conservative anymore?  Sounds more just like an orange echo chamber to me.

The fact you even had to ask the question at all, answers your question.

No.  It's not.

It is as you said it was.

He could use it.  The poor guy is in constant pain and can barely get around.  I'm surprised Sheila hasn't been gently urging him to get out while there's value. 

I may be mad at him about what he's done to the place, but I don't wish illness upon him.

Knew a guy back in the late '90's who bought a dot com for about $2K, swelled to $250K, and then zero after the crash.

Told him I now see how the Troops in Pickett's charge felt.

34th?  Why don't you tell the whole story.  It hasn't been that many years ago that FR was consistently in the Alexa Top 20 of conservative sites. 

Did you really miss the point I was making @catfish1957 ??

Okay you got me,......  just what was your point?

[musiclady]

What bothers me is the lie Bead Counter keeps spewing claiming TBR with the other haters who have abandoned the unborn.

This untruth really bothers me as this is farthest from truth.

Everyone who knows me and TBR knows we/I am PRO LIFE and that was the main reason I voted for Trump.

I even created a Cat titled Life News to post news on the Pro Life movement....

The lie that this VERY pro-life forum, and YOU, are pro-abortion is as ugly as lies get.

The person who wrote that has no conscience.

None.

Its no better than claiming that anyone who didn't vote for Trump is pro abortion.

Right.  We heard it all.  If we did not support and vote for Trump then we were "Pro-Hillary"; Pro-Abortion; Pro-Illegal Immigration; Pro-Communist; Pro-establishment etc., etc., etc. ad nauseum. 

And they continue spewing that bilge.


Well, let 'em.  They are in a dead party that is just part of the Big Government Oligarchy now.

[musiclady]

That was claimed over and over again by at least one poster here.

And it is a filthy lie.

[GrouchoTex]

I'd go back for one reason only. And only briefly. To put a stick in the eye of all those who demonized Cruz while worshiping Trump saying he was going to build "the wall", "repeal Obamacare" and drain the swamp... According to them nothing else mattered...

That is the way I recall it all as well.
Cruz was "Goldman Sachs" and couldn't be trusted.
How many ex-Goldman Sachs people work for the Administration now?
Couldn't challenge any of them without being called a traitor, or worse.

[txradioguy]

That accusation is still being leveled here from time to time.

I was tempted to log on TOS to call this Bean Counter out.....but luckily several MODS pulled me back from the edge......apparently he lurks here or as I suspect is a member here under another name...I'll find him regardless.

And rightly so.  I support her in whatever revenge she has planned.

@AbaraXas

He won't sell it - it is all he has to keep him involved/alive.  No legs, confined to wheel chair.  Without FR, he has no outlet for his thinking. 

[musiclady]

I know.

That kind of deliberate lie can only be done by someone without a conscience.   When you are among people who share your deep passion for the lives of the unborn, and you smear them with that kind of falsehood, it is inexcusable.

As someone else said, that person should be on ALL our "Ignore" lists.....

Let's not start something. It is one thing to vent in our own forums and have a laugh about the other, it is another to go across the aisle and engage against them there. We've always been rather friendly even if both vent, but never have we actually sent members back and forth to fight like some of those old sites.  Let's stay the better.

I like the analogy I saw posted, might have been you:  We have a rivalry like two diners in the same town.  We'll needle each other at the bowling alley, but we don't break into the other guys' kitchen in the after hours to cut the gas lines to their grill.

Yeah, I don't have any interest in going over there to tell them "I told you so" or anything.

I have a feeling that many will end up here eventually due to becoming disillusioned and I'm going to treat them with respect whether I like it or not.

Kinda like Ruth Bader Ginsberg.  They need the job.
