re: National Review: Israel relationship good for America
Posted by FlyDownTheField83 on 12/13/25 at 6:33 pm to prplhze2000
I have read National Review in the past, some good articles by McLaughlin, Cooke, Allen and Daughtery. However if you looked at the articles they put out over time it is ridiculous how pro-Israel and pro-defense contractors they are, there is no balance to any article that touches on those subjects at National Review.
The NR article you are quoting has the special dual animus of both Israel and US defense spending. They will NEVER print anything negative on those subjects, it is the definition of propaganda.

Auburn gets the rep for being a back up school for Georgia kids
Such a stupid take. There are two very simple more reasonable explanations for Auburn having so many Georgia students 1-Distance -Auburn about a two hour drive from Atlanta, and less than an hours drive to the GA state line, 2-Strength of certain areas of study at the schools; Auburn has engineering, architecture, agriculture, pharmacy; Georgia has legal, literature, NASCAR prep program, and advanced hand gestures (how to not call timeout after you called for a timeout).

…punishing Americans who could not afford college on their own
You cannot seriously believe that. These people all got their college paid for (student local REPAYMENT plan), and now they need to pay off their debt. Frankly I am SICK to death of hearing about the “government” paying for things. It is you and I, the TAXPAYERS that ultimately have to pay for all government spending. NO ONE should be entitled to “free” things from the government, most especially a college education.

Uhhhh,….sort of. The committee made this an issue for themselves by ranking ND ahead of Miami every week for the meaningless ESPN TV show,…..until it counted. Then they moved Miami ahead of ND, it was ridiculous to wait until that point in time to make the change.

re: Does anyone else find it weird how certain people “worship” social security?
Posted by FlyDownTheField83 on 11/22/25 at 6:54 pm to HailHailtoMichigan!
The problem with “saving” social security is that it is the big investment firms that want to get their hands on that money and “give” a return on that money to those poor old retirees. Vanguard is a prime example of this.
In reality they will keep in the fine print that “all investments have risk” and screw over the retirees as soon as they face any loss. Or better yet, when the economy takes a dive they will go whining to the government that taxpayers need to bail them out or those poor old retirees will be hurt.

re: Saban ran cover for Lane
Posted by FlyDownTheField83 on 11/22/25 at 2:18 pm to Tiger Ryno
I do not disagree with anything Saban said, but…..
He is a HUGE hypocrite because then he turns around and says the big problem in college football is that the players are too selfish now, and all about themselves now. He wants players to not be able to transfer where they could have a better chance of winning, but if a coach does it then it is okay…..
I really wish someone would call Saban out on TV about this ridiculous double standard that he has.

Excellent post.
There are some idiotic responses like wackatimesthree, but they have not experienced actually working in a manufacturing plant in the US circa 1990 to 2010, I have. As well I have been involved with manufacturing locations throughout the southeast and several were closed by the offshore ideology promoted by consultants (which continues to this day).
In every site I was involved with the manufacturing jobs were the premier jobs in those small towns, paying 20% to 30% higher wages in general, and many of the higher skilled positions (maintenance, lead operators on production lines) were making from $80k to $100k (with OT).
These plants closing devastated many small local economies. It is offensive to hear people say this is some sort of propaganda.
I am not certain that the tariffs will help, but I am all for President Trump trying this avenue for some type of relief. At least he is attempting something.

Do you really think that October 7th was the “start” of this? The killing on both sides has been going on for decades. A better question is why did Netanyahu say that he preferred that Hamas continues to be in existence in Gaza,…….why would he want that….?

I agree with much of what you have posted on the TC interview of NF. TC challenged him on his view of Jews, but that “I’m an admirer of Stalin” came totally out of left field and clearly caught TC off guard (it was clearly a troll comment from NF and was awful)
I then watched some of the TC interview with Ted Cruz. My impression of that was that Ted was the one that verbally attacked TC and then they both went at it hard in those exchanges. Totally different vibe than the TC-NF thing, and Ted was the one looking for a fight.
After that I watched some NF clips and he clearly comes off as some who regularly blames “the Jews” for things that should be laid at the feet of Netanyahu or Israeli billionaires. I do not trust NF.

3down10 is right.
Our government should not be picking out small boats in international waters to blow up and kill everyone on board, I do not care what they suspect is on those boats.
Everyone that is citing “international law” and other such administrative a$$ covering should think hard about what is being done.
