The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I of course wasn't there but apparently Trump was in Dearborn Michigan and a friend of mine (whom I long ago helped beat taxes in the 6 figures - I wrote about it on TMF lol) tells me it was a very nice reception he got and people were excited.

Weeks before - the Mayor of Hamtramck Michigan - Amer Ghalib (from the Hamtramck Ghalib's) ENDORSED Trump.


Some years ago, Muslim Americans helped defeat the Gender Taliban Leftists - I forget in what school district.


My point: WE have a potential electoral diamond here one day if we're willing to see it and get beyond orthodoxy.


So, win or lose, keep shouting "Israel!" on the Right.

Does this mean Israel isn't a great democracy? Nope. Does this mean Israel isn't amazing? Nope - they have such an amazing country, full of advances and education and tech while the Sheeple Scouts in that region don't have shit. All I'm saying is - being Israel's mule - doesn't get you shit politically. And if you want to say "my principles! "my conviction!" "My Bible! Israel" - hey, that's fine. But I hope the Iraq adventure was worth it - along with the 8 Obama years and I hope it's worth supporting an entity that slavishly - when you get nothing in return politically.


I for one - done being used and abused by this entity.

Who knows? Maybe when the Right is official the party of trailer parks,. gun shows, and erectile dysfunction ads on AM radio this conversation can begin.
