  2. I liked the flavor that works, Obama favored the flavor that didn't. I can't be the only one who thought this. Yeaaa boooy! Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  3. Let's reserve the term "fake news" for stories which are actually fake. The headline wasn't "fake," just poorly written. I don't think so. Using terms like "gutted" is unnecessary. Why? That is effectively what it would have done. How would you have written the headline? It doesn't matter how I would write it. All of the news services are competing for your attention. It's the same as Skydiver Plunges to Their Death. ETA Yellow journalism - a type of journalism that presents little or no legitimate well-researched news and instead uses eye-catching headlines to sell more newspapers.[1] Techniques may include exaggerations of news events, scandal-mongering or sensationalism.[1] By extension, the term yellow journalism is used today as a pejorative to decry any journalism that treats news in an unprofessional or unethical fashion.[2] Please don't dent the planet.

    Show me where he opposed gun safety laws. Read his columns. In September 2016, Harmon wrote in the Portland Press Herald how he opposed a ballot initiative, Question 3, that would have required all gun sales to go through a federally licensed dealer who would perform a background check of the buyer. He continued: "But perhaps the worst of the bunch is LD 1240, which would on the plus side allow police to take guns away from people admitted to a psychiatric hospital on an emergency basis, but would also increase the minimum age for a concealed carry permit from 18 to 21 (we let 18-year-olds handle machine guns for the military, but something keeps them from qualifying to carry a .38?) and require background checks for all private gun sales except to family members. But the absolute worst part of the bill is that it would require all gun buyers to take a firearm safety course." Sources: Portland Press Herald, The Maine Wire He never wrote it in the Portland Press, he didn't write it in 2016. We don't know what his position was about firearms safety courses. We do know he opposed the requirement to take a course and we don't know if his position has changed almost 4 years after he wrote it. I would venture a guess to say a former military officer has probably been a pro-gun advocate a bit longer than 4 years, but you want to make that sound as if it's a bad thing.

    http://www.pressherald.com/2016/09/02/m-d-harmon-just-a-little-logic-essentially-shoots-question-3-full-of-holes/ Show me where that quote comes from because I'm unable to find it in his September column about Question 3. In fact, I'm unable to find it in any of his September 2016 columns. ETA So Perfesser...if you're unable to find it does it make you guilty of believing fake news? I can just picture the glee on your face when you read that a conservative had been shot with his own weapon. And a conservative who had spoken out against gun safety to boot! I'll bet you needed a clean pair of underoos. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

  10. I'm sorry...I thought you were looking for something of substance...you know...actual proof. In that case you don't have the CIA, FBI, and NSA. You don't even have Senator Graham. Now, what was your point again? Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  11. That's the best you've got? Lindsey Graham? Would that be the same Lindsey Graham who made the following statements? http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2015/05/lindsey-graham-has-some-thoughts-middle-east-you And you guys think a Trump foreign policy would be a disaster.

  13. I've read that demand starts with prescription opiates. That euphoric high oxy brings is replicated by heroin. If the docs in the US stop prescribing oxy and stay with Norco hopefully the demand will be reduced. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  14. Do you read the things that you post? Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  15. That sentiment is exactly what got us into this mess. How about a little reality. If you can't afford to go to college don't take out massive student loans. Go to a trade school...enlist in the military. Find some other way to learn a trade that will take you through life. I'm working on a project right now. The wife has a PhD. and makes sure that everyone knows it. At first I was impressed. Upon further investigation a PhD. in Fashion is going anywhere in Northeast Ohio. Please don't dent the planet.

  16. It's possible...but Mr. Nixon also must realize he's dealing with an Iraqi who has spent his life being deceptive. Not as if his writings can be vetted by Saddam. I'm willing to bet that many of the world's brutal dictators, when faced with their crimes has said "I'm not a brutal dictator. I'm simply a pawn in a much bigger plan." Please don't dent the planet.

  17. Sad. Heroin is back and stronger than ever here in Ohio. Some inroads being made by doctors prescribing Norco in place of Oxy. But it will take a long time. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  18. "Those people" have always been here. Are you just now noticing? BTW...who are "those people" you are referring to? Sounds a bit racist and fascist to me. Fortunately you and I don't get to pick and choose who lives in this country. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  19. What's really funny about all of this is your DNC cost you the election. They decided the one person Trump could beat should be their nominee. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  20. Oh Bill...stick with that depiction of the right and you'll see more of what you saw in 2018. BTW...just got back from 4 days in Mountain View. I see all too clearly why you disdain folks from the South. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  21. I'd have to say I'm neither. But we'd probably get along just fine. I'd only laugh about your Racer behind your back. Or you might think I'm deplorable. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  22. I've spent enough time around the "educated" to know I prefer the deplorables. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  23. There's nothing wrong with the concept. Where it breaks down is when the interests of the school (profit) conflict with the interests of the student (being properly prepared to do the job.) At that point it becomes an assembly line with a poor quality product. I think there are some state schools that might fit that description as well. Please don't dent the planet.
