Great Plains Drifter

What a dumazz.

Yeah, opinionated and emotional fans can be a pain in the arsse when things aren’t going well but Elko (and others) would always be wise to remember that without “fan”atics, these players and coaches wouldn’t have anything.

The bottom-line benefit to mankind of large and fast humans who can run, hit each other and chase a ball around a well manicured field for two to three hours probably doesn’t even register were it not for “fan”atics.

I always get a charge out of these occasional admonitions and looking down upon people by these well paid yokels who are convinced they are doing extremely important work in the overall scope of things.

Shut your fat arsse Elko and focus your attention on what you were brought there for. Winning football games.

The radical Left and Bush-style GOP Pubs would absolutely love to see Talafreako win but I don’t think Texas as a whole is quite yet that far gone off the path of common sense.

Why has the Rep Party become so weak......

GOP in DC hasn’t been worth a shite since Newt was Speaker.

That’s been a long while now.

Most DC Pubs would seem to be mostly motivated with preserving their own power and DC lifestyle. If they are the minority party, …oh well.

Some of them seem to prefer being the minority party where they actually don’t have to be responsible for outcomes and then can comfortably go on the Sunday talk-show circuits and talk about “what they will do” if voters give them a majority.

Wash. Rinse. Repeat.

Say what you want about immigration, but it is the only way to maintain the quality of life we all enjoy.

Really hasn’t been an opportunity for anyone to simply chime in on “immigration” because the “illegal” part has been casting the biggest shadow over this nation for years.

But you know that.

Bringing an argument that would seemingly imply the Democratic Party has only ever been really concerned and motivated with maintaining America’s GDP and economic productivity - hence their open borders m.o. - whereas the GOP does not possess such foresight is disingenuous.

If that's reliable polling, then that's a dire sign for Ken Paxton. Texas-09 represents a district (mostly in Northern Brazoria County, Northern Galveston County and far Southeastern Harris County) --- a very conservative and Republican district. Trump won it by 20 points in 2024. If he's only leading by 1 in what should be a slam-dunk regional race, then he's getting shellacked statewide.

I suppose there could always be a first time you were proven right about something.

I don’t believe this will be the thing to mark that notable milestone.

Anyone who utters the “fair share” talking point indicates someone who still believes this country has a revenue problem for all the goodies government can provide instead of recognizing this country has long had a spending problem.

So they believe it’s government’s moral duty to “take care of people” and “make things fair”.

Leftists will never understand that a society cannot spend itself into prosperity.

In fairness, the modern GOP spends like drunken frat boys on a weekend bender as well. They just have different pet projects and special interests.

The electorate ISN’T ignorant of the fact that the politicians who promise them “we will represent you first” always seem to consider their donors first.

Again, no argument there.

That changes nothing about the consequences of people choosing Marxism as the alternative.

quote:

---

hey're completely driven by cartoonish emotions at this point

---

The anti-Trump voices since 2016 right on up to present day haven’t been exactly notable for being driven by simple cold calculation and facts.

Sitting there throwing the “emotional” tag at the Trump supporters side is pretty absurd.

It’s not an unreasonable question.

There’s no doubt if the radical Dems get back in power they will be going after DJT and anyone associated with DJT and they won’t waste anytime in doing so.

They’ve said as much and that’s one issue where I fully believe them.

Every once in awhile, a Democrat slips up and let’s the truth out.
