Maybe politics should be forbidden on this site what do you think SC? Geoff considered that possibility many years ago. You ever see the movie, "Sleepers"?? There was a scene in which two of the guys were sitting in a westside bar and that very point was made.

There was a story recently that a soccer player here in the MLS came out of the closet because he felt the need to tell the world he was gay. Then an opposing player on another team said something on the field to rattle him. Instead of handling it by himself he had to tell the press who it was now that opposing player is getting death threats and they want him out of the mls. If I was that gay guy I would have got the guy alone and beat him up and moved on. But I guess the gay guy was a punk so he did not do it. I posted what the gay guy should have done. Soccer people on soccer America site were shocked by what I said

Was Ron Eldard the cop in Scent of a Woman? He's the cop that pulled over Pacino when he was test driving the Ferrari. He was in Blind Justice too.
I invoke my right under the 5th amendment of the United States constitution and decline to answer the question.

No matter the case, he's not bringing back manufacturing jobs Well he could bring the rust belt to life. Take steel production for instance. You just have to put a large enough tariff on steel imports so that it becomes economic to open up (well, rebuild) those old steel mills and start them producing again. Of course the US price of cars, buildings, machinery, appliances and pretty well anything else that uses steel would go through the roof, so other consumers would take an immense hit in order to transport Pennsylvania back to the 1950's. Of course, that would destroy other large parts of the US economy in the process. But no doubt the he will be able to use the libel laws he has mentioned numerous times he would like to implement to close down any newspaper that points that out. Oh yes, and you'd have to ban using all that modern technology that does most of the work in modern steel-mills, so all those big really muscly guys can come back into the factory again.

I never met anyone who didn't have a very smart child. What happens to these children, you wonder, when they reach adulthood?

I have spent at least a hundred thousand dollars buy from auctions on eBay. My wife wants me to buy a jar opening machine for her cost 11 dollars. So I buy it thinking it was being shipped somewhere in the United States. Turned out it was being shipped from China. Look closer shipping time was from a week to 28 days. Of course the week was bull shit. Evidently it was on a slow boat from china. It took 32 days to get here so I refused it. They actually shipped the piece of shit back to china that was a month later it is on route back to china. I complain to the company in china I complain to eBay for my whole 11 dollars back. I told eBay how much I spend on eBay thinking that will matter. Well it did not matter to them. I tell them good I won't buy through eBay anymore because eBay employees are machine and can't think for themselves. I tell china to go fuck themselves and tell them I will not long eat Chinese food anymore

Ford wasn't moving that plant to Mexico. This was widely reported by almost every major news outlet.

Who is Jeff Sessions, US attorney general nominee?http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-38030602For those kids out there that don't know him, in 1986 Sessions became the 2nd man in 50 years to be rejected the Republican controlled Senate Judiciary Committee. This was 1986, at the height of the second Reagan Administration.

There was a scene in which two of the guys were sitting in a westside bar and that very point was made. You mean when one of the two guys, John Reilly, says to the bartender, "tell them Republicans are not welcome in Hells Kitchen, and either a political conversion or a change of conversation is in order"? It was actually the bartender that watered down the message and told the other guys "no politics, no religion". Great scene. And great song playing in the background. Witchi Tai To by Everything Is Everything.

Meyer Lansky's dream was to bond the two worlds together so that one could not survive without the other." - Dan E. Moldea

Post a link about the story with Apple saying they are considering moving production to the US.
Then we can discuss it. Google is giving me nothing

Wow 30 yrs ago what was hillarys guy in the senate 30 yrs ago a kkk guy.
I assume you mean Robert Byrd. The same Robert Byrd that repudiated his former association, and apologized? The Robert Byrd that was later praised by the NAACP? And he wasn't a KKK guy thirty years ago. I believe his membership was back in the 50's. He was a horrible person in his earlier years, and managed to change. I haven't seen indications of the same from Sessions, but feel free to post any. I'm always interested in learning.

Generation x was 60's to the mid 70s. A very few percentage own gaming systems. Generation y or z or the so called millennials might have a higher percentage of being a gamer, but only the ones who are unemployed or don't have children. lol. Please tell us how you know all of this for certain. Common Sense and observation. Just how I used my common sense and observed Trump would be elected even though no one, not the experts, the pollsters, the pundits gave him a shot. People like myself don't normally do polls, and if we do we yank their chain.
