I certainly do as I have a problem with treasonous politicians like Bill Clinton who in 1987 signed a bill placing one star on the state flag of Arkansas to honor the confederacy. |

LOL!In 1987, Mr. Clinton signed Act 116 reaffirming a state flag design that included a star symbolizing the state’s membership in the Confederacy. Hillary Clinton was the state’s first lady at the time. The law passed unanimously — 29-0 in the state Senate, 93-0 in the House. The bill was passed unanimously in both houses. Clinton did not create the bill, and he couldn't veto it either. Way to go republicans! A new low even for you guys. Well done! :) |

As usual, you are being dishonestly liberal. If Bill Clinton were against the bill, he should have voted against it and let his veto be overridden. Of course by your account he has as much integrity as a typical liberal. |

For the umpteenth time, I do not support the Confederacy over the United States of America. I just don't have any problem with the Confederate. I don't hate it, nor like it.But I do resent it when the Confederate flag is compared to the swastika. Especially by people who claim they are Jewish. |

Like I said, left the city ages ago, we have real oxygen out here. :)Hate to break it, but haven't smelled a whiff ever since we've lived here, and cows aren't fond of beans or corn. They eat grass if you want proper meat. Non-agribusiness farmers take care of "business" because they and their families would have to smell it too. Roaches, cow flop, so many misconceptions of reality. And I'll bet you actually believe all that just like the other stuff you peddle. :) |

Growing up there were always the kids who's father was "bigger than your father" or "my bike is faster than your bike" or "my house is bigger than your house". That's what kids do. Living upstate may work for you but it's not for everybody and it's certainly no paradise. Time to stop acting like a little kid, yo. |

Not a question of better, or indifferent. Merely pointing out that your assumptions about me have no basis in fact. The world you've surrounded yourself with, along with its expectations are not the same one others live in.You seem to think I'm a "librul." Just pointing out that it's not possible in the environment I live in. At the same time, being a "right winger" isn't either. There's a whole world out here where extremes just don't work. I prefer that kind of world. YMMV. |

Oh really, and you know where or how I live? Better yet are you now going to tell us that where you live there is only one way to think or one way to vote?How do you live with cows and not smell the cow shit in your paradise. How do you insult conservatives and right wingers in virtually every posting that you make but never criticize liberals and then try to sell the poop that you are middle of the road. I really don't care about where you live or how or even your political point of view. But even with my undeveloped sense of smell I can still tell the difference between cow shit and bull shit. I'm just feeling that it's necessary to point out what you are leaving behind you is the latter. That said we can still be friendly here. |
