Busy with those Republican coke-sex orgies?
As he lingered, a solitary figure in a stream of lunchtime passersby, the congressman spat tobacco juice on the sidewalk.
Mind the engine cowling, Tulsi.
I hear Walmart is hiring greeters.
And the way they want to prove it is to pay for a speaker whose life work is to deny fundamental rights to a majority of people in this country.
Ah, shades of UFโฆ
i think to prove it, they should have to pay every american the same amount to come speak there. donโt we all have something equally ( heck, more! ) valid to say?
i mean, really. itโs not free speech until itโs bought and paid for /s
Isnโt the power of celebrity great?

Meanwhile, the familyโwhich didnโt even spend money on a lawyer for themselvesโwrote back a letter pleading for mercy.
โOur Herschel Walker is now 84 years old and a veteran of World War II having served in both North Africa and in Europe during World War II. Now he is told that he canโt even use his own name on his own restaurant. What kind of Justice is this? Is this what he fought for during World War II? We hope not,โ they wrote.
โOur entire family have always been great fans of Herschelโs. We have followed his career from Johnson County High School [in] Wrightsville, Ga. to the University of Ga. and throughout his professional football career. We are still interested in Herschel and believe him to be a great Christian athlete. Our Herschel Walker is also a Christian. Therefore, they are brothers in Christ,โ they continued.
All three men seemed convinced they could change the football starโs mindโif only he would read their letter.
โIf we are forced to take down the Herschel Walker signs we donโt have the money to replace them, the signs cost $4,000.00 which is a great deal of money for us. If Herschel wants us to remove the signs it will cause a great hardship. We have only one request that Herschel read and somehow let us know that he has read our response,โ they wrote.
The letter was signed by Hershel Earl Walker, his son John Walker, and the grandson David Timothy Walker.
The entreaty failed.
Less than a month later, the family agreed to stop using their grandfatherโs name in any way. A federal judge issued an order granting the football star โvalid, exclusive and enforceable rightsโ to the term โHerschel Walker.โ The family was โimmediately, permanently and perpetually restrained and enjoinedโ from using the name in their business again.
I suspect that this will only endear him to Trumpersโฆ
Thereโs the problem, assuming he could read.
The only possible response from Dems would be to hold strong and let the Repubs stew in the responsibility for whatever falls out of this. We are at a point where there is no pretty way out. I would prefer economic disaster over armed insurrection, not that it is entirely either-or. But if they want to go that direction, let them go and then we need to be very effective in cleaning up the mess.
Small numbers are big numbers when the race is so close.
Even if all it does it cause a few people not to vote for him at all, that will help.
