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.

No one objects to fixing a national treasure. They object to doing it recklessly.


That's a nice opinion. Too bad it's not reality. THIS is the reality of today's left:

facebook.com: Facebook

Exclusive! RAW VIDEO. Man arrested for vandalizing Lincoln Reflecting Pool. He grabbed the hose that female National Park Service workers were using to clear the algae. Police and National Guard responded.

What was especially stupid was this guy rolling up on his bike. Those wheels go for ~$1500 and I'm sure the rest of his bike was around $6k minimum. Since no one will watch the video: the National Guard had a nice chat with him and then he wound up in handcuffs being told he was getting a case number.

The problem with your whitewashing of the insanity is that many of these monuments fell into disrepair over the years and no one said a word about them. Only now that Trump is one actually deciding to clean things up do we have a problem with crazy morons coming out to protest in favor of algae. And physically interfere with US Park workers.

townhall.com - Lefty admits reflecting pool looks great

“I thought it was a stupid idea to paint the Reflecting Pool, but it looks really good. It makes the reflection look extraordinarily prominent in a way it did not before, and I hate that.”

Not a single lib here gives 1 rip about "process". Come on, man.
