You sound like a smug jackass who would shoot himself by mistake @massadvj

Prove me wrong.

Well, your words reveal a lot more about you than they do me.  When you have an answer to my question, I hope you will let me know.

----------------------------------------------

Repeating, we selected Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Madison and Monroe, among our first 5.
Now write down our last 5 and compare them !!!!!
And yet some question why depression rages across our nation?????

Pretty much what I have been saying for 20 years.  Root cause is back then,, there was at least some semblence of honor and duty in wanting the job.  Now?  We just get insane meglomaniacs who thirst just for power.  No sane person now would want the position.

I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.

I'm not in despair.  I have faith in the merit of my conservative beliefs.  The "nonsense" is a test of faith.

The left is always telling us the most impressive country is a total hellscape.  If anyone needs couch time, it's them.

I don't think it really matters whether you are right or not.  If it is so important to you, I grant you are right.  Now what?

You want me to grab my shotgun and shoot someone?

I answered your question @massadvj  ... I think you're likely to shoot yourself by mistake.

Now, go.... no more talk.  Do something, professor.  Prove me wrong.

I have already acknowledged that you are right.  My question is "What now?"
