Yep, I can see it now. Axe handles; Pickrick Drumsticks diminished by the lying Atlanta newspaper into toothpicks. An informing artifact of our southern civil rights era. Lester Maddox was GA's last segregationist governor.
Before being elected in 1966 Lester owned an Atlanta restaurant called The Pickrick. He had a barrel next to the cash register which was full of axe handles inscribed Pickrick Drumsticks. They were for the coming race wars, and became a symbol of his political career.
I was an 18 year college freshman for that election and he was probably my first vote. If I remember right, he was elected when the governor's race was so tight it was thrown into the democrat GA legislature...Geo

You should pms nca. russia, russia russia, whines like the brady bunch do, marsha, marsha, marsha.
I noticed that instead of being a man and defending your support for trump betraying the country you just hurl some snide remark to hide the issue. I think its fair to add cowardice to the description of disloyal and unpatriotic. Don't you?

I think its fair to add cowardice to the description of disloyal and unpatriotic. Don't you? Is it possible for you to exude toxic masculinity? Knowing your pc aptitude, when you mention man, do you really mean tranny gal entitled to abortions? How do you mean hide the issue? Around here, it's about lawful firearms ownership and use, while you're a knee jerk anti 2nd brady bunch type supporter, right? Woke up, if you have the ovaries to follow along, I'm just recapping your debates.

well, maybe it is past time that we start running gubmint like a for profit big business...where maximizing profit via cost reduction and revenue generation, with return on investment to tax payer voters is the goal...
an when gubmint cuts taxes and even refunds money back to the tax payers, like bush jr did, that can be viewed as an increase in securities values and dividend distribution...
and then there is buying back debt...what a wonderful way to protect the integrity and future viability of the enterprise...
with the consent of the board, the last two ceos have exhibited gross fiscal irresponsibility...
bush jr squandered vasts sums of the conpany's assets on foreign ventures, that returned little of value in comparison to the costs...
obama ran up corporate debt to astronomical sums, with little or no apparent return on investment...in addition, his anti capitalist policies stifled economic growth for the voter base and created a generally dismal business climate for many years...weak gdp growth under obama is the obvious evidence...
ceo trump so far, has increased gdp growth many times over that experienced under obama...that fact alone, has earned trump re election for another term...as tax payer voters, perhaps a ceo candidates potential to implement corporate cost reduction and debt retirement programs are what should be our primary consideration when choosing our next ceo...

ed, Obama had a bit of a handicap; he had to bring the country out of Bush's recession. Having done that, he passed on a much stronger economy to Trump. As for debt, read up on the long-term costs of Trump's tax cut. People who think Trump's doing a good job are the people he's taken advantage of in his casinos. They're all convinced they can b e winners too if they only buy the right lottery ticket or feed the right slot machine. He's rich because there's one of them born every second.

By being a man, I mean somebody who has guts to defend their actions, no matter what they are, instead of dancing around the issue and pointing to some irrelevant topic. You fall into the latter half and therefore clearly do not meet the definition. A b!tch and disloyal to boot. Your admirable qualities are piling up by the second.

Demonstrably false to the core. The economy did a U turn from the bottom of the graph on the day after the election. Not the day before. No liberal can explain how any of President Obamas policies helped the economy. Because, they didnt. Otto put himself in harms way, and liberals somehow blame President Trump for that, ignoring the 20,000 plus souls that perished waiting for Obama care. It was true then, it is true now, you must break some eggs to make an omelette, eh lefties? Of course, still true, we never will see the omelette. It exists only in your sick minds. Best, Ted

Ted, You're pinpointing an economic turn-around is nothing short of miraculous. No economist could manage such a feat. Your crystal ball is simply amazing. Think what you could accomplish as an investor or financial adviser.
