I VOTE BLUE. I value kindness and equality for everybody. Trump is the worst thing to happen to America. He should be in prison! Deadhead since 1972. No nudes, dates, requests for money. My pic was a lucky shot during my bear attack!

Frankly, if this comes as any surprise then you really need to start paying attention.

Wow! 76ยฐ! That's a nice change.

I dont understand how that's a problem. Im not disagreeing; I just don't get the logic.

10.03.2026 17:54 ๐Ÿ‘ 0 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Agreed.

10.03.2026 17:52 ๐Ÿ‘ 1 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

True. Tough to accomplish.

Makes sense.

Good idea! Thanks Aaron.

Hell, other countries do most things better. Better math scores, better health care longer lives -we are not managed well by our government.

That would be great - a giant step forward.

Swiss. Interesting. I'll look into it myself. Thanks.

I agree. It might be more than one method, but I want a method where citizens can start impeachment proceedings.

I just realized a great thing about my memory loss - i can have a surprise party for myself and actually be surprised.

10.03.2026 16:40 ๐Ÿ‘ 6 ๐Ÿ” 1 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

No. Needs to be a separate agency.

10.03.2026 11:58 ๐Ÿ‘ 0 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

I prefer that too. Always hated 2 party.

10.03.2026 11:57 ๐Ÿ‘ 2 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

One point for you! I assume no legs fell off back then?

So they could still serve 8 years, but we are only stuck with a trump for 2. That's good.

10.03.2026 11:53 ๐Ÿ‘ 0 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Agreed. We need change so others can have a voice.

10.03.2026 11:50 ๐Ÿ‘ 3 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Then I like it.

10.03.2026 11:49 ๐Ÿ‘ 0 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

That might help!

10.03.2026 11:49 ๐Ÿ‘ 1 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

I'm for it.

10.03.2026 11:48 ๐Ÿ‘ 1 ๐Ÿ” 1 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

I think that's second. Supreme would strike it down, so impeach them first.

I had forgotten how good the writing was on Boston Legal. What a great show.

Somebody here suggested that ALL political donations should be illegal. The idea is all candidates get equal time and equal billboards paid for by the government. MONEY NO LONGER IS A PART OF ELECTIONS. Citizens United no longer applies.

A++++++ question there

10.03.2026 07:14 ๐Ÿ‘ 4392 ๐Ÿ” 1051 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 352 ๐Ÿ“Œ 68

Im 75 and always in pain, but i think if I push myself i can minimize the pain and pretty much be normal but wrinkled with old man stretched balls. But I think I am likely to live into my 90's given family longevity. Anyway I want to have my funeral before I go so I can attend. But when? Yearly?

10.03.2026 09:54 ๐Ÿ‘ 2 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 3 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

What if we had an agency whose sole purpose was continuous investigation of congress, the Supreme Court, the president and Cabinet. They would have the authority to remove from office, put lawbreakers on trial, and imprison. And government offenders should always get max sentence hard time!

You know, there are some things that were better back in the '60's, for example: there were usury laws so interest rates on loans/credit cards had a maximum; there were laws that limited the reach of business - they broke up monopolies; the max income tax rate was 95%; corporations paid more tax.

Im rewatching Boston Legal . What a great, funny, off the wall comedy drama. I think it brought out the best ever performance from Shatner. Everybody in it was terrific. Jerry, the financial expert hampered by Aspergers; the minister/attorney that wants the other attorneys undies in order to settle.

So (Finger "Prints") Andrew is thinking of moving to the UAE. Do you want to bet he's beheaded in the first 6 months?

10.03.2026 08:52 ๐Ÿ‘ 2 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Agreed. We need some top notch minds to figure out changes to the system. I'd rather not leave it to congress - they're worthless. Let universities compete for solution ideas and put together the best ones to present to congress for a yes/no vote - no changes.
