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 said loudly - that the Roe repeal was horrible for my side.

Even during 2024 as polarized as things are, when I knew people on my side might disagree, I said loudly that the Taliban abortion policy has gotta go.

I said it on ObamaCare also.

Why? Because in a democracy - when the citizen voice their opinion via the vote, certainly you try to change minds but in the end, YOU GOTTA FALL IN LINE if after your best efforts, they still aren't with you on an issue (s).

There has been *none* of that from Sheeple. And in the process W Bush won twice, Scotus went Right, and now Trump thumped the Sheeple. A resounding victory and amazing political comeback.

Thus far, Sheeple Journal has NO entries on introspection, or willingness to compromise or even give up on some issues that the people have spoken on.

Summary for today's Sheeple: Same old. Dug in. Stubborn. But then again, doing the above requires individual thought - not taking marching orders from a partisan medium or Liberal owners here on the site.

I had to change my mind on Gay Marriage - the country spoke. I've changed on abortion - country spoke. I changed on ObamaCare - country spoke.

This year Donald Trump didn't have KellyAnne to help him win but he had the next best thing: Baaaaaaaaaaaaa
