People need to wise up

This quote below pretty much sums up why I don't like all these entitlement programs. “I am for doing good to the poor, but...I think the best way of doing good to the poor, is not making them easy in poverty, but leading or driving them out of it. I observed...that the more public provisions were made for the poor, the less they provided for themselves, and of course became poorer. And, on the contrary, the less was done for them, the more they did for themselves, and became richer. ...

You know those Compleats meals? The ones that you just have to nuke for 90 seconds. They don't have to be kept in the freezer or anything. I was just fixing myself one for lunch. Beef stew. When I went to pull back the plastic after it was finished cooking, it slipped and some of the gravy sloshed onto the inner part of my wrist and the palm of my hand. It burnt me so bad! I now have a very large red place on my wrist and hand, and after 45 minutes, it ...

I tell you this so that no one may deceive you by fine-sounding arguments. (Colossians 2:4). Do you listen in on God's council? Do you limit wisdom to yourself? (Job 15:8). For all that is in the world--the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride in possessions--is not from the Father but is from the world (1 John 2:16). For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find disorder and every evil practice (James 3:16). Eloquent words are not fitting for a fool; ev ...

On interviewing Debbie of the Dirty Hair Wasserman Schultz, he said to her, "The only people I've heard mention impeachment all week at the Democrats." LOLOL ...

No elaboration should be needed. It's hard, never-ending work to be a responsible adult in a democracy - and especially so in a dangerous world. Unfortunately...well, you can finish it yourself, I'm sure. ...

You know how people always say Hillary's in perfect health and questioning that statement is sexist and conspiracy theory? Well, they can't say that anymore. ...

So I am going to pick up my son and his friend from football camp and he says to wait that there is a lady that wants to talk to me. So along comes this lady who just reeks of money asking me if it was okay for her to take my son's friend with her and her grandson (my son is NOT invited) to the country club swimming and could I call his mother. I told her I did not have my phone, but the friend could call his mom and ask. She then proceeds to ask me to wait ...

My husband had a job interview on Friday. The HR lady said she would call him on Monday to set up his final interview. It is wednesday... has she called, no! She gave my hubby her card so he emailed her Monday night to thank her for the interview on Friday and to let her know he would like to schedule the final interview, but nothing... no email, no phone call, nothing! Its just so frustrating because he has been out of work for so long, and this would be a good job and everyth ...

seem to hate those who have been fortunate enough to inherit their wealth? Is it jealousy? What? I don't get it. If I were rich, I'd want my kids to share in my success. I don't think there is anything wrong with that. So why do so many people have a problem with that? ...

They sure do watch it, they know everything that is said. Geez, I never watch MSNBC. Afraid you might miss something??? Or maybe you just won't have anything to argue over and criticize ??? It's okay, Fox doesn't mind you watching...so enjoy. ...

In June I posted about volunteering at my local animal shelter, working in the cat condos. I am continuing to volunteer, and for the most part I really enjoy it. I also help to stock the refrigerator in the gift shop, pick up donations for the shelter that are donated by local businesses, etc. Here's my problem. So far I have received three cat bites. The last one occurred Thursday afternoon in the presence of my friend, who was in the condo with me. Th ...

These are the same average, ordinary voters that elected President Obama TWICE, and will elect Bernie Sanders. Sen. Sanders has more contributions at the same time as President Obama at similar point in campaign. And rather than benefit from million-dollar contributions through a “super PAC,” Mr. Sanders — who has called such fund-raising groups corrupt — has amassed a million online donations over the past five months, faster than Barack Obama did in his first, digitally groundb ...

I need a serious opinion. We have friends who have 2 cats, full-breed, who they have had daily bonding with for a good 2 years. Said friends are going on a 3-month trip out of the country and are boarding the cats here in the states. The one cat (before owners have even left) is showing signs of something isn't right--getting out of the house and not duly returning home, peeing smack dab on top of the bed.). These cats are brother and sister, and will be somewh ...

I went to lunch today for a change in scenery. I had a cold bay shrimp salad with a butter herb vinegrette dressing and a passion fruit tea. It was nice on the patio today, warm with a slight breeze and I was happily munching away when all of the sudden I started to CHOKE! I mean for real, gagging, retching choking! As if that wasn't bad (and embarrassing) enough, NO ONE WOULD HELP ME! It seemed as if a whole 2 minutes went by until I ran from the patio into t ...

In Houstin, TX, we have a conservative group doing a "True the Vote" thing where they are there to make sure there is no fraud going on. As a conservative....this is just asking for trouble in my opinion. How can you detect fraud from standing outside? I guess unless you visibly watch every person that goes in to make sure the same person isn't going in....but seriously....how dumb. Now you have the New Black Panther Party retaliating and saying they will be there to ...

NP dictating: MR. ____ is a MALE MAN... (as opposed to a female man?) He is cachectic, emaciated, very thin, malnourished and skinny... (wow, we get it!) HEENT: Eyes: Patient is unable to make eye contact with his eyes... (hmmm. I bet it's harder for him to make eye contact with his elbow.) (I'm not done with the report yet either!) ...

Won tickets to a concert at the Gramercy Theatre in NYC for Tuesday night. Driving 4-1/2 hours to go to the show. I've only driven to NYC once and that was to stay at a hotel. Worrying and wondering about where one would park in the City in order to get to the Theatre. I just read that there were parking garages nearby, but wonder where they may be. Any help would be appreciated! ...

Ya'll ever noticed how young and beautiful all the people in beer commercials and alcohol commercials seem to be? Ya think if I start guzzling beer and booze I'll turn into one of those skinny, shapy, young, beautiful gals and just party and dance on a beautiful island forever? I mean, I must be drinking my beer the wrong way, 'cause I'm about 20 pounds overweight and no one ever asks me to dance AND I keep getting older! HAHAHA! ...

With Memorial Day having just passed it brought to mind why our service men and women are fighting. To preserve our freedoms and that includes freedom of speech and the freedoms to believe what we want. Nobody should be cutting down anyone else because they don't believe a certain way (that is the way they believe). Sometimes I am gone for days, sometimes work and family keeps gives me little time to come. These past few days or a week or so of posts here on the boar ...

I rarely if ever ask anyone for favors except my husband, but as far as out of my household I don't. My husband's brother doesn't mind asking a favor and neither does his wife. We recently did them a big favor; however, when we asked for one in return, never got an answer. So I was like okay they can ask but they can't give. We actually loaned them my husband's pickup while they are short a vehicle because my hubbie rarely is here to drive the pic ...

Why is that? Wouldn't it be more constructive to hope things go well, and maybe even contribute to that outcome with some positive discourse? Or are you that full of hate that you can't wait to see the ship sink -- forgetting you're on the ship as well? ...

will lose their health insurance with Obama care. See how that works? The ones with jobs lose theirs, have to go on the crap plans. But the ones with 7 or 8 kids and 7 or 8 baby daddies are happy to get the crap care. Remember the lie, "If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor", or "if you like the plan you're on, you can keep it." So many lies spew out of this man's piehole, it's hard to keep track of them. One can just assume tha ...

Why do conservatives HATE the constitution?!?! The Supreme Court signaled strongly on Wednesday that it might strike down a key part of the Voting Rights Act, as the court’s conservative members cast the provision as outdated and unfair.

I do have one question, all you people who think this kid was just led astray, needs a little help, guidance and forgiveness. How do you split yourselves up like that? How do you get around sympathizing with the killer (who truly meant harm) and also sympathize with the families? You can't have it both ways, you know. I am not a black and white person, but this is just silly. You can say you feel sorry for the families, but yet you slap them in the face with forgiving the bomber. Are ...

Voting has become pointless, as well. I'm so over all of it. ...

I sure don't. They have access to all your information. Can anyone see stolen identities on the way? Unreal. Well, maybe not, considering............ link ...

People need to wise up

You sound like Trump and Cruz - Congratulations

...and people on the left as well. - But you knew that, or did you?

I agree. You also need to prepare yourself for unprepared - people who won't wise up

Acting like terrorists ourselves isn't going to - make terrorism go away. Far from it.

Yeah, because that's worked out so well, so far. Ugh. - anon
