  1. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/voter-id-constitutional-amendment-passes-by-eye-popping-margin-in-major-defeat-to-democrats/ar-AA1C9sxH?ocid=mailsignout&pc=U591&cvid=659ea07f3abf4df3930f39de966142b3&ei=81 Voter ID Constitutional Amendment Passes by Eye-Popping Margin in Major Defeat to Democrats I'm not the only one that has said this. Probably still not enough for you. mspart
  2. That's not good enough for RV. It has to be 200k -400k to be meaningful. mspart
  3. How come all the Ds in Congress are against voter ID? Not a big deal, ya right you betcha. mspart
  4. You are stuck on Canada and milk. Every country has tariffs on US goods, yet we mostly don't. What would be a good strategy to get other countries to reduce or eliminate their tariffs on US goods? I would like your solution rather than your complaints. mspart
  5. So what you are saying is it is n't fair that the US charge equal tariffs on other countries that they impose on us. That's a tall order to substantiate. mspart
  6. This is what I mean by schizo. The vote for the voter ID was more than the vote for the jurist. Opposite voting pattern really. Schizo!! Your attempt to minimize the voter ID vote is disingenuous. It may have been law, but now is part of the state constitution. That's not a small deal and the fact it won by more of a landslide than the jurist won by says something. mspart
  7. It will be interesting to see if the tariffs of other countries changes as a result of our tariffs. It might bring things around to free trade, which would be good. We have free trade in North America with Canda at a 250% on dairy. That's what I call free and fair trade policy. mspart
  8. That is an interesting result. Jurist goes D but the R staple item voter ID gets passed. Wisconsin is nothing if not schizo. mspart
  9. Make it tougher for people who shouldn't be voting to vote. mspart
  10. Madmardigan rides again! mspart
  11. Yeah, but this is a funny thread. mspart
  12. Thank you for a more complete explanation. No GR expert here. I get it now. mspart
  13. Hendrickson had 3 falls. Starrocci had 2 T falls and 1 MD. I'm not sure how that equates to a better bonus percentage. mspart
  14. How does that not apply to a 2-2 tie or a 3-3 tie. If they go to this it should be a tie breaker rule rather than just a 1-1 tie breaker rule. The same gaming the shot clock would apply. mspart
  15. Just for 1-1 ties? Not for 2-2 or 3-3 etc? Seems kind of funny. mspart
  16. RV, if insulting is using f bombs, everything I have said still applied. So now you have Ds that want to mimic Trump and insult him with with f bombs where he doesn't do that. It is stupid and adolescent. But of course you are all for your leadership to act like idiot teens. Well, you would be one of the vast minority that is impressed by this conduct. mspart
  17. We need to get back to if you get in trouble in school it is 10 times worse for you at home. Parents need to support the school's attempts at discipline. That doesn't happen. It's not about beatings. Although the threat of the electric paddle at my elementary school kept most of us at bay. Nobody wanted to find out about that beast the Principal had in her office. I think I got spanked at school from 1st through 5th grade. At least once. We moved from AL to WA in 6th grade and the new school did not spank. The Jr high didn't either, but the new jr high did with a huge paddle with holes. I had a choice, clean up the lunch room or get the swat. I took the swat. That was 9th grade and that was the last time I got swatted. For all the beatings, I did not turn out too bad. They were pretty mild really. But I sure didn't want any of that mess to get back to my mom or dad. No way!! mspart
  18. Agree. Some kids find out from experience or friends that CPS is a great threat. Accuse abuse and you can be removed. Kids can usually get what they want if they push the right buttons. On the other hand, if parents do not support the school disciplinary measures, what is the school to do? Suspend? Expel? Get sued for doing so? Both the Education system and parents are at fault here and they are failing the kids. mspart
  19. Personal insults can be quite imaginative. Hurling an Fbomb is not. A great insult shows good vocabulary, a mastery of the language and education. The Fbomb does not. Try as you might RV, but the Fbomb is not on the level of Don Rickels. The Fbomb is for lazy people who can't figure out a way to speak without it. It is for the untrained orator. It is debasing in reality which is why FCC doesn't allow it. mspart
  20. F bombs show a total lack of imagination, proper English, vocabulary, education etc. That is where the Ds are right now. There is a reason the FCC will fine a radio or tv station if they broadcast such language. mspart
  21. Gee, the usual suspects don't seem happy about this. No comment whatsoever. MS-13 guy would just as soon rip your head off as look at you. mspart
  22. If the school tries to discipline the kid and the parents cause a stink, there goes any discipline that can be handed out. Parents are definitely in that mix. mspart
  23. I agree with your statement about parents. That is absolutely true. Curriculum changes have nothing to do with parents nor do the school's acceptance of decreasing demonstrated abilities and call that acceptable. Parents play a major role in the how the kid acts at school for sure. If Johnny is convinced his parents won't get on his case, he won't read. mspart
  24. The key here is that schools are failing and the US Dept of Ed is not doing anything to stop that trend. This seems to be a systemic problem. Kids are not getting stupider. Teaching is not as effective, topics are not concentrating on rudimentary skills, and there is no practice to make perfect. We are not expecting enough of our kids and they are meeting those expectations unfortunately. We are raising a generation of morons in a world where smart people will rule the world. These poor kids will get steamrolled. Now for political commentary. The Ds have run this system forever, so it is their intent as measured by results to keep America as dumb as possible so they an steamroll America. This is the Ds legacy and it is very clear to see. They are the ones teaching about race and gender identity rather than teaching the kids to read and write and do grade level math. They are the ones that lower expectations because the brown and black kids just can't do the hard work because well, they are brown and black. So we pass them along and say they are getting good grades when they obviously can't read or write or do basic math. This is the result of D rule of the schools for the last 50 years. Quite the legacy. mspart
