1 Wrong and immoral when the right does it. Virtuous and right when the left does it.

2 Seems you have the same mindset as I do Darth. I'm so fucking sick of placating these assholes. When are we going to take the blinders off and do as to them as they would do unto us?

6 Mississippi's GOP governor drops election pledge in huge setback for Trump’s midterm plan

"Understand something, that maybe while it may be in the best interest of some individual politicians in Mississippi to talk about congressional redistricting, what happens in Mississippi doesn’t happen in a vacuum," Reeves said in a talk-radio spot Wednesday.

7 what happens in Mississippi doesn’t happen in a vacuum

Oh yeah; why not? Your assignment is Mississippi, not what some butterfingering intern in DC thinks.

8 Re #5: A metaphorical reference (w/ minor edits) to help counter the rage...

Trust in God

1 My child, when you come to serve the Lord, prepare yourself for trials.

2 Be sincere of heart and steadfast, and do not be hasty when things go against you.

3 Cling to him, do not leave him, that you may prosper in your last days.

4 Accept whatever happens to you; in periods of humiliation be patient.

5 For in gold is tested in fire, and the chosen, in the crucible of humiliation.

6 Trust in God, and he will help you; make your ways straight and hope in him.

9 That guy; he any more of a stereotype he'd be wearing a gold chain.

I know that gal's shirt doesn't say, "Abolish Ice Cream."

That Escher Beret looks like something from a second-hand store.
