    Native American to be Secretary of Interior

    There have been many big moves I may agree with you about. Which one do we have in mind? Some, I will not take responsibility for having fought against these developments tooth and nail.

    Native American to be Secretary of Interior

    Now I think this was a little too much unity that papered over regional and religious diversity and ultimately curtailed the freedoms Americans have historically recognized. It also led to the establishment of two legal systems. But the assimilation strategy of turn-of-the-century Progressives...

    Native American to be Secretary of Interior

    Yep. And many of these groups ended up marrying into one-another after a generation or two. At least among the lower and middle classes. This helped bring unity along with a common recent struggle (WWII) and a government that promoted and enforced a unity of purpose.

    Planets Align Tomorrow

    My left brain doesn't buy astrology. My right brain thinks we're doomed.

    The Great Reset, Build Back Better?!

    I would submit to you and many others have been thinking about it the wrong way. There is rarely one singular event that eliminates freedom and changes economic systems in one fell swoop. Usually, it's some ongoing emergency or economic sea change that begets new programs or general practices...

    Are Mormons Christian?

    I admire the Mormons in the same way I admire the Jews. They are an orderly, business-savvy, moral people who build clean, safe cities. There is definitely a strong in-group preference among them (they can spot someone outside their faith community a mile off and it causes some discomfort), but...

    GA runoff election

    A fair assessment all things being equal, but I don't think they will be when weighed in the balance. The resources- money, manpower, etc that are being tossed into Georgia is mind-boggling. This is not an insignificant factor. Some of this cannot even be tracked with FEC reports- I know a few...

    The Great Reset, Build Back Better?!

    With all due respect, you're being a frog in the pan.

    Star Wars Thread

    Late to the game here, but I just finished that last episode of Mando tonight. Seriously, this is everything I've wanted out of a new Star Wars since I was a kid: new and interesting characters who are not members of the Skywalker family, more planet biomes, consistent blaster action, material...

    How would you date someone new in the midst of this pandemic?

    You and I seem to agree on an awful lot.

    The Great Reset, Build Back Better?!

    A book worth reading is James Burnham's Managerial Revolution. We have been building back "better" since 1914.

    Native American to be Secretary of Interior

    There is no reason to rejoice. This is just another diversity hire to give the Left a superficial sense of moral legitimacy while they plunder and praise infanticide.

    Which is more important looks or personality?

    Of course personality matters, but appearance is important too. Otherwise God wouldn't have made physical attraction and beauty a part of the created order.

    Chicks are expert rhetoriticians in this field.

    Statement from the Washington National Cathedral

    A BLM flag is to black people what a Soviet flag is to the working class. It indicates Left "advocacy" for these groups, but is isn't representative of them. It's foolish to expect an Episcopal minister will make this distinction.

    Are You More Attracted to the Happy-Go-Lucky Type, or the Tortured Soul?

    Some will disagree, but your opinion matters more than theirs.

    How would you date someone new in the midst of this pandemic?

    Love is a gamble as it is. If you don't want to be single, date and roll the dice.
