    The GOP'ers buy votes by lowering taxes... (remember when Ronny lowered taxes he won his re-election by one of the largest landslides in history.)

    Either way we will all be screwed in the end. So I'll keep voting for the Libertarian.
    your words at the end of the post and your pictures don't match. But Trump appreciates the pictures, especially the white nationalist friendly one. And we know he likes pictures more than reading words.

    I will say one thing about economics and Trump. The Trumpist economic ideas haven't been implemented yet. Tax cuts and deregulation are traditional Republican ideas, and that's all that has happened so far. He's hasn't had that much luck pushing through his anti-immigration and anti-trade stuff yet. Yes, he's talked about it, but done nothing to substantially change anything on those fronts yet. I don't know if the Republicans are going to bow to that by November or not, but if they do, then kiss the good economy goodbye.

      They were items that were supposed to have been turned in for disposal, but were just kept and repaired. They came in handy at times.

      I may be small, but I'm slow.

      A veteran - whether active duty, retired, or national guard or reserve is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to, "The United States of America ", for an amount of "up to and including my life - it's an honor."

          Yeah, Nancy on those bonuses companies are paying out due to the tax bill...



          It is all just "pathetic" and "insignificant" "crumbs". Yeah, those getting $1000 bonus attributed to the corp tax cut may think otherwise when it comes time to vote. Nancy just needs to call it what it is... GOP'ers buying votes!

                Yeah, it does. The jeep had the same bumper # as the Coy CO's jeeb (A-6), so if an inspector was in the area there was no tell-tale blank spot where the log books were kept, we would also put the extra radios in the back seat

                My Dad went to Viet Nam on a boat with the 4ID and when he got there, the division base camp was literally an empty field surrounded by triple strand concertina wire and guard towers. As my father tells the story, when he got to to the base camp one of the first things he did was to send his Battery Clerk out to the boonies with a couple of cases of C-Rations and orders to see what he could scrounge. A week later he comes back with a Prefab building - complete with AC. He said he didn't ask any questions when the Clerk got back, he just arranged to the bldg to be installed.
