The 2017 General Political discussion thread, Part 2!

As much as I agree with you, I don't have much success having reasonable and thoughful discussions with liberals. Maybe I'm wrong, maybe I've really become a far-left crazy old redneck in my old age (if you knew my background you would honestly find that funny), but I find it almost impossible to have a reasonable discussion about anything to do with politics with a lefty these days. As reasonable as I might think I am, the other side invariably sees me as the extreme, even crazy, while the whole time I'm wondering how can they be so convinced of something so utterly absurd. They have become so extreme, it's just beyond reason to me.

I think sometimes our regulars to the political forums on INGO fall so far into the "reasonable discussion" mentality that they forget that the politics section is a subsection of a forum whose name and basis is Indiana Gun Owners. Not the opposite.

Lively discussion is fine. Treating the enemy as if their anti-gun supporting agenda is OK is NOT.

Dem's potty mouth gets her banned from speaking at party fundraiser | Fox News

So the party decides maybe they don't want an 'R' rated speaker since it's a family event and there'll be kids there. And then she responds with this...

“The party that tells women to sit down and shut up is not supposed to be the Democratic Party,” she said. “… I may not be refined, but I’m real. The polished turds that they continue to shove down our throats as politicians are still turds.”

...thus confirming their decision.

Sorta looks like the love child of Anne B. Davis and Carrot Top. The most profane thing I saw in that story was "sensible gun control".

US-led strikes in Syria block IS militants evacuated from Lebanon - BBC News

Apparently, Hezbellah in Lebanon and the Syrian government agreed to safe passage of the remaining ISIS elements to evacuate to Iraq. US coalition forces did not agree, cratered the road and took out a bridge, stranding the ISIS convoy in no-man's-land.

They cannot bomb the entire convoy since in addition to 300+ ISIS fighters, there are an equal number of non-combatants, likely family members, with them. If and when they see individual armed terrorists that they can target without endangering the civilians, they target the individuals.

But, they are taking out the ISIS "rescue" parties coming from ISIS held territory in Iraq.

There indeed is a new sheriff in town.

Charged in two ambush/execution killings, suspected of killing 5 white men. Will this get national news attention? Obviously, the inverse, would.

Whatever you think of her delivery, at least in this statement, she is spot on.

When I read that statement, I thought, hey, if she weren't so damn far left, she'd fit in well on the right. She already knows the language.

If you were really afraid of rising sea levels, I don't think this is where you'd invest millions of dollars you did not earn yourself.

Who cares about Obama? Trump orders steak "well-done" and eats it with ketchup.

I now understand his appeal to many on INGO.

You wrote that...And I heard this....I know others may not agree but (IMHO) Garrett Morris was as talented as any of that first season SNL cast...

Thank you for your considered response.

In the off chance that you might be sincere....you're welcome.

Eating steak with ketchup? No wonder he was afraid to go to Texas.

Kut (ranks that at 11, just shy of the other Thou Shall Nots....)

This is not a classy guy, but we already knew that.....

Some people care about fashion. Some people care about thou shalt nots. **** that pop culture bull****. Wear what you want. Eat what you want. I don't really care for ketchup all that much, but if that rocks yer steak for you, go for it. Do what you want. Just don't harm people.

GFGT is always sincere...

My daughter eats her steak that way (like Trump) as well....And ketchup goes on everything she eats...And I do mean everything...I tried breaking her of it to no avail...Even tried giving her medium well and she handed it back and said, "Go finish making it daddy..."

She is on the Autism Spectrum and I do know that does play into her taste buds a bit...The Doctor once said every one of her senses are on overload and it could be that her taste buds are as well...We theorized the "well done" and the "ketchup" is to try to tone down the taste and various flavors of the steak to make it more "uniform" tasting...

She can tell whether it's well done by sniffing it...

My wife will have a salad at 11 am, do the dishes, and spray Lysol...My daughter will come home from the YMCA at 6 pm, walk in the door and say, "Did you have salad Mom...I do not like salad..." She will not sit at the table while my wife has a salad...It's the smell of the dressing I think...

BBQ... Sauce or no sauce? beef or pork?
Chili... Beans or no beans?



Tiptoe through THOSE minefields, then we'll talk about how people like their steaks.

Great I have stuck in KC since Monday.
Do you think I should just fire some warning shots at radom?
