Cindy - I would venture to say that there are a number of states that have never had a mass shooting on a college campus. That does not change the fact that there have been many mass shootings in this country on college campus and there have been no mass shootings in legislative offices in this country.

I listened to Bernie's first acceptance speech (when he became a mayor, long ago). He referred to both Lenin and Trotsky in the process of claiming a "people's victory" - which I interpret in exactly the Soviet usage. I wonder if people who think they like him grasp his politics? Or that a good communist rarely cite...

Junior, I was referring to the black market. When the feds end their illegal unconstitutional war on weed the market will be so glutted you won't be able to give pot away. It's already to the point over 80% of what is grown in Oregon, California, is being exported out of state because we have such a glutted market.

I'm not surprised at the landslide since Sanders supporters were buying votes for $10 a meal at the Fairbanks Denny's last night. We turned the subsidy down (Keep your money and I'll keep my vote, was how my husband worded it), but this morning, someone else reported the same encounter on Patriots Lament. He took the m...

Anyone who thinks Lenin is an inspiring political example is, at a minimum, a Leninist.

Actually, Sue, according to a review by Virginia University and Vanderbilt, Don Young is rated as one of the ten most effective members of Congress. And John Conyers has the worst attendance record. I can't find data on "most ethics complaints" but perhaps that accusation is also hyperbole?

I have read his plan. The problem is that it ignores economic reality. NOTHING is for free. Someone always has to pay for the "free" stuff.
