I'm sure you would love some "Knob" in your life but going on TV with a video you didn't confirm and claim it to be something far from the truth only shows there real desperation from the feeble minded left who KNOW they have no chance of winning this election. Needless to say it's careless for them to call themselves "journalists"

Enjoy your knob slobbering

Ouch!!!

Touché! Your wit is certainly rapier sharp there Sir Drago.

I'm going to have to agree with you on this one. If the protesters are descendants of any colonizing group, they really should self-deport IMMEDIATELY!

No, no, no, no. NOT self-deport. We don't want those smelly leftist radicals back in Europe... let them do onto themselves what they want to do to others.... kill themselves!

Seriously, is that your cat?

No, it's not his cat. Gilsan is like 70, dude in pic looks like 30's. American style kitchen/vaulted ceilings. That pic is from h ttps://imgur.com/gallery/hGndN Take the space out between h and t.

But it appears we also need an ID to buy groceries as well...

This is the second time he has reiterated this "fact", just a little over a year from the date from first pointing out this "fact".

All countries require government issued ID, including the US. Which country requires a separate ID just for voting?

GILSAN said:

Mine (Portugal) does. The vast majority of countries require Voter ID... usually photo ID... to prevent fraud and duplicate votes at the polls.

USA's neighbors do. Canada requires voter ID. Mexico’s “Credencial para Votar” has a hologram, a photo, and other information embedded in it, and it is impossible to effectively tamper with. Confidence in the integrity of elections has soared since its introduction in the 1990s.

California and a bunch of other States allows illegal aliens to get Drivers Licences, which can be used as ID to vote.

It's easy to understand why Democrats are so much against Voter ID's, preferably with photos and holograms. They could lose a lot of illegal votes if Voter ID's were introduced in all States.

Actually the United States does not. There are drivers licenses, which serve that purpose IF you drive. Military ID, separate state IDs ...
I have no problem with voter ID as long as it’s equally easy for everyone who’s qualified to obtain one. If someone is qualified but can’t get to the place where they’re issued or has difficulty obtaining the documents needed to get one (not a driver, not a homeowner, etc.) that’s an issue.
And that’s how voter suppression happens in this country. Make barriers to voting that affect a certain demographic.

TCK said:

My understanding is that this is a state by state issue.

I conflated voter ID (as in government issued photo ID which all eligible voters possess) and voter registration (where otherwise eligible voters would still have to enroll in order to be allowed to vote).

Great to hear Gilsan! He/she looks really nice. You are a kind soul.

Now I'm going to have to be sure to spread the word about how cute your pussy is.

Democracy Dies In Darkness: Adam Schiff Just Banned A GOP Lawmaker From Attending Key Ukrainegate Deposition

Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., just banned a key Republican lawmaker from the deposition of a former anti-Trump national security official believed to be at the center of ongoing Ukraine proceedings, sources tell The Federalist. Schiff tossed Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., out of the deposition.

It's a twofer...

Personally, I'm still waiting on the Republicans to release their fantastic Healthcare plan that they've been touting for however many years. But then again, who would have thought...

"We have a plan that I think is going to be fantastic. It's going to be released fairly soon, I think it's going to be something special ... I think you're going to like what you hear."

"We have come up with a solution that's really, really I think very good,"

He's not on that committee and they weren't interested in having him be in the room. I'm not seeing the problem.

There are other Republicans on the committee and in the room. Ain't nothing going unseen or unheard...

Time for a new narrative G.

Not my actual sandwich - but is almost the actual size. (Assuming you are seeing it on a full size monitor and not a small device.)

I think I see your problem - that doesn't look like a healthy diet. Hard to think well when one eats too many fried foods. Fried potatoes, fried chicken and white bread.... I am rather surprised since I keep hearing how popular Chik-Fil-A is. The saving grace is that jalapeno pepper.

Maybe if the KGB fed the Soviets such food, along with all the drugs Americans take, they would still be in power.

Or am I missing something? Is there something better on the Chik-Fil-A menu? I like to support ethical businesses, so I would go out of my way to try their food, but is this it??

Chik-Fil-A is good, much better than eating people's pets or that street vendor slop.

OH! And another twofer!

"If I decide to run for office, I'll produce my tax returns, absolutely," he said. "And I would love to do that."

Asked if he would release them publicly, Trump said, "we're working on that now."
"I have very big returns, as you know, and I have everything all approved and very beautiful and we'll be working that over in the next period of time, Chuck," Trump said. "Absolutely."

"I don't mind releasing. I'm under a routine audit, and it will be released. As soon as the audit's finished, it will be released," he said.

More on his dodging here,
https://www.nationalmemo.com/showus...mp-has-said-he-would-release-his-tax-returns/

Per the IRS Commissioner at the time,

IRS Commissioner John Koskinen said Friday that it would be unlikely for a taxpayer to be audited for multiple years in a row, a day after Donald Trump maintained the agency had audited him a dozen years running.

“It would be rare for anyone to be audited every year,” Koskinen said in the interview, which will air Sunday. If there were no issues following an audit, Koskinen added, “it’s a number of years — two or three at least — before you hear from us again."

...Koskinen said the IRS doesn’t care one way or another if a taxpayer releases his or her own documents.

“We stress that we’re in tax administration, so we have no stake in any of the primaries going on,” he said. “From our standpoint, if you’re being audited, and you want to do something else, share that information with your returns, you can do that.”

You're better off eating your sushi... much better chance of reaching 100 and then celebrating it with a Chik-Fil-A, for fun. Even the cows will thank you...

I'm blaming it all on Mr-X! He's the one that did the triggering.

Actually, my diet is normally on the healthy side - lot's of grains, nuts, veggies & fruit, extra virgin olive oil, etc - but I do allow myself 2-3 splurges a week. If I do exceed my USDA recommended Maximum Weekly Splurges (MWS), I do penance for all the following week.

Along with this I'm a runner, cyclist (weather permitting), and hit the gym 2-4 times a week along with occasional other activities. My weight is at the low end for my projected range and my doctor says I'm his most fit patient. After an annual physical, he once asked if he could have my heart should I meet an untimely demise. I told him only of his insurance would cover it. LOL!

I really wanted a second sandwich (always) but I know I'll regret it both in the way it makes me feel 5 minutes after the last bite as well as for the week I will forgo my other MWS to make up for it.

But seriously, if you ever get a chance to try one, I HIGHLY recommend it! One or two on occasion is not going to kill you...
