    Because we don't care about each other.



    And the politicians sure as hell don't care about us.



    Vote them all out. Democrat, Republican, Independent.

    My political values don't lie in Washington. They're not defined by black or white. And they're certainly not defined by some corporate blowhard that is making himself richer off of my (and your) dime.


    First thing this morning on my way to work I saw a flag at half staff and it pissed me off. Seems like it's at half staff every single day for a different reason.

    Can't wait for all the thoughts and prayers. Keep them coming. They're super effective.

    Abbott says to fly the flags at half staff pretending like he actually cares…meanwhile, he’s still scheduled to speak at a NRA event this Friday

    that pathetic gremlin Ted Cruz sending out his useless thoughts and prayers…

    “thoughts and prayers”…ha

    the most useless, scripted, and cliche phrase in all of America

    it’s all for show…none of them give a damn about what happened

    Careful. The moderate is more disliked than the Republican and Democrat.

    @B-Bob and @Major are going to unleash their wrath upon you for speaking ill of their party.

    The toxic fury your posts exude every day have made their mark. There is no doubt.

    Be honest -- what are some of the things you have unleashed in your life?

    Shot put. Pet turtle. "Pet" dragonfly. Frisbee. Moar frisbee. Boomerang. Various dogs. Stacks of AARP membership cards ... and ...
    Strings of searing hot insults against friends and enemies alike. :oops:
