    edit no longer an option so quoting myself... and the kicker is that this is redistribution of wealth from the middle and lower classes to the upper class and corporations. it is corporate and social welfare for those who need it least. it is a handout. it is maddening that they will blatantly do this for corporations and the wealthiest dressed up in the name of economic stimulus and trickle down but will criticize and rail against any attempts to redistribute to the middle and lower classes, the ones who actually need it, as entitlements, socialism and handouts to those dirty, stinking, lazy poor people who refuse to take personal responsibility. In other words, if it redistributes to the wealthiest, well that is just capitalism at its finest but if it goes to the people who actually need it, well that is socialism and communism and lack of personal responsibility. never mind that the definition and concept of socialism is completely lost and misunderstood by these people. unfortunately, the Republicans have convinced all of the rubes that any government program that gives money to people who need it is socialism and not part of a democratic - capitalistic society, and that could not be further from the truth. i am ready for candidates like Beto to restore responsibility in politics. i hope there are many more who follow after him.
  2. i thought it was one of the best films of 2018. i was surprised by how much i enjoyed it. it has been a long time since i enjoyed a spike lee film.

    Republicans have been the party of fiscal irresponsibility for the last 40 years. Democrats have been more fiscally responsible over that same period of time and its not even close. I really dont care if someone is a Democrat or Republican. I want their policies to be responsible. I want their policies to follow the same advice that they would give their children. I want their policies to follow the same advice that they would give to a poor person asking how to get ahead in life. I want their policies to follow the same advice that they would follow running their own business. This isnt hard. Republicans sold out our country a long time ago to large corporations and the wealthiest, and while doing so, have incited fear by relying on tired slogans invoking LBJ's ghost in the name of every Democrat. It's over. It's done. Every single time the Republicans get in control of the WH and Congress they go on a huge spending splurge while massively cutting revenue. It is fiscal insanity. It is a literal money grab every single time. They are not principled. They are not responsible. They are dangerous to our Nation. And they should be voted out until they become responsible and start following sound, reasonable economic sense. The best part of Beto winning will be that it will make both parties pay attention to Texas. I am tired of the parties pandering to the plains states and the midwest. I would love to see California and NY become important to both parties too. The fact that every vote for Beto will count will lead to a huge turnout. There are a lot of liberals, progressives and left-leaning moderates who do not vote because they know in national elections their vote won't matter and in local elections their vote has been gerrymandered into nothing. I think Beto will inspire every single one of those voters to vote. Beto is going to win.
  4. I wouldnt count Martin out. LT always starts slow as they find and fit all the pieces together. There are questions on the defensive line and in the secondary. And right now, the WR corp looks pretty meh outside of GW.

    I grew up a Reagan Republican as a kid. I voted for Clayton Williams, Bush Sr, Dole, Bush Jr for Gov, Bush Jr for President and then largely Democrats ever since based solely on the issue of fiscal responsibility. but I dont vote straight ticket. The Republican party as presently constituted is disgustingly stupid and offensive to anyone who is a moral, responsible, caring, family, patriotic oriented person. I don't get it at all. We benefited from Ryan/Trump's tax cuts but to what end? What did we give up to save a little in taxes? Our integrity? Our promise and responsibility to provide a better nation for our kids and grandkids? No thank you. We have 5 kids. We will be adding 2 more votes for the Dems this Fall. The other 3 will join when they are able to vote. We are active in Beto's campaign and actively encourage our kids to serve their community and get involved. They have embraced our activism and are taking it to the next level. Times are a changing...

    i dont think Gen X and Millenials will become socially conservative. But I do think most of us are fiscally RESPONSIBLE and for that, we are turning to the Democrats as they are the only party to show even an ounce of fiscal responsibility over the last 25 years.

    Fuck Ted Cruz. Beto is going to win.
  8. Evans is going to LSU.
  9. Maybe, but Im not sure how I could be an idiot for sharing what Wilson has said both privately and publicly.
  10. Given our offense's performance over the last few years, I wouldn't say Wilson's comments make him an idiot. I disagree with him but I understand where he is coming from.
  11. I dont think Mehringer or Beck is a problem for Wilson. It is my understanding it has more to do with his lack of belief in the offense as a whole and whether the offense will be good enough to showcase / develop his skills for an NFL career.
  12. i kinda like the show but really wish more would actually happen. and would it be that hard to actually have a character that i like or cheer for? camille is a depressed, alcoholic, cutter. her little sister is the devil. their mom is the anti-christ. the step-dad is a cuckold. the kc cop is eh. the sheriff is an idiot. the rest of the people in the town all voted for trump, i am 100% sure. i mean there is nothing compelling about the show. it is filmed in flashbacks, current, flashforwards, dreams, shaky cam and every other possible way to make it hard to follow. and yet, i keep watching. i think i will blame it on my wife... and the hope Amy Adams gets to actually look like Amy Adams.
  13. it was a good first episode. i am in. but damn, how can LT and UT be better run than an NFL franchise? I wouldnt let Hue Jackson be the head coach of an LT youth football team. i was surprised Baker came off as a half-way decent human being.
  14. wait so tax cuts DON'T pay for themselves? huh...
  15. I wouldn't say "always wrong" but certainly more than my fair share...
  16. i have good news and bad news. Good news: Wilson is not interested in Aggy. Bad news: Wilson is still solid to OSU unless Urbs is fired. In Texas news, yes, Mehringer told Wilson he was better than all of our current receivers right now and would be a starter at Z or X from day 1. It did not have the intended effect on Wilson or his parents. Good thing for Texas that Coach Naivar is Wilson's lead recruiter and has a great relationship with Wilson and his parents. I believe in Naivar. But think we need a little help from OSU along the way and beating USC would probably open the right eyes and ears.
  17. I am currently sitting at a resort in Newport Beach enjoying a nice glass of Pinot Noir. I get back in town on Saturday and have dinner plans with people close to Wilson's recruitment. I should have an update shortly thereafter. I can tell you that Texas is the only school Wilson continues to listen to despite his public outbursts. Obviously odds are still heavily in favor of him attending OSU regardless of Urban's challenges but the only school with a chance is Texas.
  18. You sir are FAKE NEWS! Everyone knows that MS-13 is the biggest threat to the American way of life! You must be one of those ANGRY Democrats who support MS-13's efforts to bring more crime, more rape, more abortions, more fake news, more voter fraud, more brown people coming in through open borders destroying our white way of life and generally but also specifically you and MS-13 are against every part of the American (and Russian) way of life!!!!!
  19. wow... nothing to see here.... move along, move along.
  20. WHAT.THE.FUCK?
  21. my god.... you can hear how timid and afraid he is to answer that question. he never once called russia out or blamed russia. he blamed the US directly multiple times. the best he could do with regard to russia was to "both sides" it! unbelievable...

    that mofo is gonna win...
  23. Strozk destroyed Gowdy and in doing so, destroyed the entire preposterous idea that the investigation is tainted.

    i donate to Beto's campaign and volunteer as well.
  25. I dont disagree. Wilson is fast enough but not a speed burner even at the high school level. He isnt even the fastest kid on LT's team. He is more of a polished receiver than an athletic freak. His hands, body control, route running and timing are all elite. And that is what makes him great now. His speed is good. His size is good. If he can continue in college to get separation through route running and his understanding of concepts and coverages and then use his timing and hands to bring it down, he will continue to shine and excel. But like everyone else, it will get tougher for Wilson as the DBs covering him become elite athletes who are faster and taller. Houston on the other hand is a Wilson starter kit with more natural athletic tools but has a long way to go to be as polished and finished. And because of those tools, he projects to the college game better than Wilson imho. Given their current status, Wilson is easily than safer bet. He has the higher floor. But Houston has the higher ceiling and hopefully our coaches can develop that raw talent into something special.
