    A bit unusual – ESPN is following Tiger live. They usually start Master’s coverage at 2 or 3. Just teed off on 2. Even so far. Gotta like it.

    I don’t mind Rasmussen polls and I don’t mind your posting their findings re Trump’s approval ratings but I wonder if you’re aware they’re an outlier on that question? Or maybe you’re just trolling us, if frontpage contributors can troll. Just curious.

      At this point she is trolling because if you look…every time she posts a Rasmussen poll, I take the time to tell her that it is not indicative of the RCP average or 538’s average (which is at 41.5 and 40.2 respectively). I have also noted that if she wants to live in her own dream world and foster a sense of complacency among Trump voters…go right ahead.

    And it begins. You say the Libs aren’t Grabbers? Au Contraire. And who will be responsible for the predicable, inevitable violence? The “never let a crisis go to waste” Left. Thanks, Hogg! Seriously, thanks! This one event will send Deplorables to the polls in November in record numbers! There is a Voter’s God!!!

      No, this is a direct assault on the 2nd. Unconstitutional as hell.

      • Noway2016

        Well, we will see how it’s characterized come election day. The next Great Flood will be of Deplorable Voters at the polls come November. On just this issue. Oh, life is good…

      • Noway2016

        No deal. Unlike you, I’m not an accessory to premeditated murder. Now, how many minority babies has your $80 bucks helped to kill?

      • Noway2016

        To quote Momma Pope at some point in your life, “Andrew, if everyone else told you to jump off the roof, would you do it?” “No, Momma..”, you sheepishly admit. This particular angle doesn’t quite work. LOL! Andrew, you are genuinely a certifiable Snowflake. But, carry on if you must. You are kinda on the cheap side, though. Bump it up to $50 each time I school you. Speaking of the “schooling” I provide to you, I really should be being paid for my efforts. Otherwise, keep killing them minority babies, Sniv…

    • Noway2016

      You know, Sniv, only you can rationalize you surrendering your own money as in some way hurting me. To quote the late, great Terrance Mann in Field of Dreams, “You’re seeing a whole team of psychiatrists, aren’t you?”

    • ScottNAtlanta

      The “grabbers” I would argue are people like you. Grabbing my healthcare, grabbing my right to feel safe from gun violence (for every ‘maggot’ as you call it that gets shot, there are at least 10 that get shot by mistake), my rights to what I define as morality not what someone else feels is moral written as law…I can go on…so whose the grabber

    CDC employee found in River. Sh*t!!

    • ScottNAtlanta

      I wonder if he washed down from Peachtree Creek which is very close to the CDC (and my house…so no serial killers please)

    If you’re going to tell the history of Arlington don’t just tell part of it.

    Confederate soldiers are buried along with Union it the Civil War Unknowns Monument. Don’t forget that the Supreme Court ruled that the seizure of Arlington was unconstitutional and gave it back to Lee’s oldest son who sold it to the US government for $150,000 in 1883.

    Add to that Meigs motivation for development of Arlington had less to do with developing a national burial ground for union soldiers and everything to do with revenge for the death of his son.

    • Raleigh

      F__you, really? over 700,000 words in the dictionary and that is all you can come up? Sad statement on your mental capacity…

    Andrew, where are you from? ‘Can’t be from around these parts.

    • ScottNAtlanta

      …of course not. He has a different point of view so of course he couldnt possibly be from here. Guess what…I’m from here (born in Chattanooga) so I have about 40 years (another 12 in Richmond VA), and I (thankfully) think very differently.
      Andrew can thank me later…

    Didnt you know its policy to take no responsibility and blame all others (just ask Ed he can update you on this policy…as could Will for that matter)
