man these ammosexuals are creating ads that would make the Taliban jealous.

My question would be is anyone really surprised by this? Now they're threatening their own who don't fall in line with Trumpism.

In a recent post, I talked about traditional republican voters needing to boot these folks out or bail. Now you see why I said that. This new bunch make no distinction between 'RINOS' and anyone on the Left.

To guys like jfan, arch & DC: they'll be coming for you after they're finished with me. Do something now while you still have a chance.

Was there more incidents or was Greitens the only one making such videos?

I mean, it sounds like there is a rampant issue with lots of people talking about RINO hunting...

Just like Kaye Ivey, Governor of Alabama.. In a campaign picture she's shown pointing a gun at what I don't know.... She is clearly trying to latch onto the MAGA voter and the Pro Gun Voters...

Anything depicting violence is just wrong.. What the hell are these idiots doing. Too many folks have been killed in the last 30 or so days, many of them children and this idiot and the RINO Hunter guy are just whats wrong in America.. They are what we should be shutting down...

They call themselves Patriots,, They are nothing more then Domestic Terrorists..

The probelm seems to be they either don't care or are too afraid to call this type of behavior out. In this case the trickle down theory actually works....

I don't see 40 talking about RINO hunting...

Yet I don't see you repudiate such actions when they do happen.

i think he's the only one who's made an ad directly targeting a political demographic with guns (if you can call RINOs a political demographic).

at this point the term keeps changing depending on who's calling who a RINO. i mean we got guys who were solidly conservative now being called RINOs.

In it to fight I see.

Too late Clem, this is the mainstream of the party. This is who they are, this is what they stand for, this is what they want, this is NOT an extreme wing any more. The Republican party has no use for moderates, no use for decency, and it has no use for actual conservatism.. I really have no idea what the republican party stands for these days.

This is the party that could, on one hand, try to distance itself from the white supremacist's, the literal hood-wearing, swastika-donning, section of the party... but NOOOOOOOO, instead they are going "hunting" for conservatives who are ok with gay marriage to make sure they have no place in the party because we, evidently, are the real "threat to democracy"....

I believe you are correct and I believe the decision is based on needing those fringe extremist voters to remain relevant. What the country really needs is a common sense conservative middle option capable of compromise and standing for something real. But so many see that if they don't back Trump they lose the fringe and lose their seat at the table. So they sell their souls.

Anyone who doesn't tow the Trump line to cover his lying ass ways is a RINO. Trump even said crap about Ivanka testifying for the 6th committee. Had to lie about that too. But he made sure not to throw her under the Trumpian bus. Wonder if he would have done the same for Jr.?

Well, there are more of you I think. I can't imagine a guy like arch or other moderates that liked Trump are going along with this. I could see SB and 40 going along out of fear. But around here, there are a lot of Trumpians, the pickup truck trump flag displaying types. And I wouldn't trust them any farther than I can throw them. We've been saying for 4-5 years that moderates need to clean house. I guess now it's too late and you can either embrace fascism and terrorism or join the rest of us making sure dems, whoever runs against republicans, win every election for the next several cycles until the threat is gone.

I just wish somebody would have told us they were fascist and dangerous.

The Governor of Alabama,,, Pointing a gun in a campaign ad.

What's really so sad is the apparent tone deafness of republicans (or should I say MAGA Heads) given the mass murders recently in Buffalo and Texas.. Seriously, how dumb do they have to be.

Anyway, watch the hearings, the types of things that Trump did to ordinary people it as bad as putting a target on their backs... and there is clear proof of his actions.

Wow.. you seem to trigger easily.

I wonder how many people are out there that feel neither party represents them.

Ditto to all you posted. As an EX- Republican, I can't believe the RINOs can't find someone younger, smarter, and more principled than the Donald. I truly believe the Donald will be prosecuted, for sure he deserves it, only hope money doesn't talk again. Hundreds of thousands of Republican voted for Biden and then a straight ticket Republican....I did. Can't elect that completely flawed human being again.

What about his hard-core lunatic followers running at every level of government? Did You vote for any of them? If you go straight Republican this time, you will be supporting continuing Trumpism in some or all of those votes. I didn't heart anything about Trump being in Texas last week when they created their platform. That same type of crap is happening everywhere.

Both the hippos and Rhinos are herbivores and can co exist in the same habitat.
Both the hippos and rinos are herbivores and can co exist in the same habitat.

Hippos are far more dangerous than Rhinos' to humans.
( In Africa what animal kills the most humans? ... Hippos. ) Huh?
Hippos have that huge mouth, they can stalk in water, and on land run up to 40 mph. Now, fastest sprinters in the Olympics are hovering around 22-23 mph? So, Twice as fast as a human on land, and that huge mouth,
a person is about like the size of a half a brownie to a hippo's mouth?

hippos and rhinos' are they friendly with each other? ( NO the internet can't just answer a uestion, they'll get all safety bull /./
and talk about how both can be aggressive to humans. NO, the uestion was, can they coexist?

I think to hunt Rhinos, someone should disguise themself as a Hippo, and then you won't scare the Rinos away.

There are not a lot of wild rinos running around the woods of Ohio. There have been more bigfoot, and lions spotted in Ohio than Rhinos outside of zoos.
( the plural of bigfoot is bigfoot, anyone who wants to claim otherwise is dense. The plural of moose is moose, the plural of deer is deer, and the plural of bigfoot is bigfoot. )
What is the plural of grease. Greece? Jk

j/c...

Letter sent the other day to Rep. Adam Kinzinger's wife.

100% agree.. I don't think far right wing or far left wing nuts are doing anything good for our country... this ad was ridiculous...

The real question is, why aren't you triggered.... If you watched the hearings, you would have heard and Seen PROOF of the criminal activities committed by Trump and his minions...

Why aren't you ticked off (triggered) by that... How could you not be triggered by a guy that lied to you and Tricked you. How could you avoid being ticked off.

But your comment was kinda like say, well, it's only one incident... NO, it's a whole series of incidents like this..

Because I don't trust any of them.

Politicians in general have no care for me and mine. They don't care about you. They use us against each other to fatten their wallets. The right vs left fracas should be the people vs the politicians.

This tribunal is nothing more than a sacrifice of an outsider to the masses so the swamp can continue to fester unmolested.

Still no repudiation and trying to focus on someone else to deflect. I expected no less.

When or if that happens Jan. 6th will look like a walk in the park.

You get out of it what you put into it.

And still, no repudiation. Sometimes what you refuse to say speaks far louder than what you do say. This is one of those times.

What exactly do you think I should repudiate? And why do you think you get to try and control what I say by not saying anything yourself other than you are here to fight?

Personal money and power at all costs

So they are no different than any other political party..

If you don't understand that after watching the video nothing I can say could explain it further.


I have no intention of trying to control what you say. But when a politician openly advocates an open hunting season on the opposition and you say nothing to repudiate that but instead take a defensive position, that speaks volumes in and of itself. And you are not alone. Many sit idly by and never speak out against such things. That's what has helped gotten us to where we are now. Once again you try to place the focus on everything but the fact this guy advocated hunting moderate and true conservatives. That's on you no matter how hard you try and deflect.

No there are people in government that are actually trying. The republican's party is not.

You mean other than the fact he openly advocated hunting down his opposition with guns?

It's a stupid video designed to get people talking about him.

It worked. If you seriously think he is advocating actual hunting and shooting of people you must have been apoplectic about the movie The Hunt.

It speaks for itself. We've already seen what can happen by the continuation of such things. Stupidity led to Jan. 6th. On one hand people talk about how people that are mentally unstable commit atrocities. Then on the other hand wish to claim that something that could easily trigger such actions is just stupid. Minimizing what we can see with our own eyes seems to be the go these days.

So you won't disavow that movie specifically. If says volumes about you.

Mmmm hmmm. Whatever you say.

Ah HA,, you haven't watched the hearings then... You could not possibly know the depths trump went too.....

I know from the moment Trump was elected Pelosi was blood sworn to destroy him. They wanted to impeach him before he was even sworn in.


The swamp protects its own depths.

The thing is donny is just another swamp creature. Just because he didn’t come from a political background it didn’t make him any less corrupt.

I know... he was all sorts of loved while donating money to the coffers, when he decided he wanted it for himself he was suddenly a pariah and had to be taught a lesson.

He sidestepped saying using the threat of killing your political opponent is awful and refused to denounce it. Now he's sidestepping that Trump tried to overturn our elections. If you're looking for this guy to man up it isn't going to happen. Mr. Twister isn't going to own up to anything.

And then the is the Mitch McConnel thing when Obama became president. Vowed to make him a 1 term president. So it is nothing new in the political world of today.

Nothing is new, nothing changes.

No one wants to compromise in the truest sense of the word. And the politicians pit us against each other because then we aren't staring at them.

Dude.. you can speak to me. If you think the ad was serious maybe you need to see someone. I have suggest in the past your grasp of reality might be thin, and this is more proof.

I have never advocated political violence. <=-- IS THAT A BIG ENOUGH CLUE FOR YOU?!

I also know both sides use hyperbole to make points.

Did you condemn the movie The Hunt? Never saw you do that. Maybe you should man up (isn't that really an offensive thing these days? Doesn't that imply something about the superiority of men?) and do the right thing.

And since you haven't listened to the hearings, you wouldn't know why so many are out to destroy him.. He's a crook, liar, Criminal etc.. But hey, maybe that's why you like him.

A movie is not a real life campaign ad which is sending your message to your supporters and voters. The movie you mention is fiction, this was real.

I guess you see failing to speak out against it as not advocating it. Pretending this ad is the same as a fictional movie speaks louder than anything. You're still making excuses for it.

They are all crooks and liars and cheats.

HE's no different than any others.

Obama wanted a third term "if I could just find someone to serve it I could get things done". But that's ok cause people like him.

I see you are ok with political violence if it serves your purposes.

Pretending this ad is anymore than some stupid attention grabber speaks all we need to know. You preach moderation, but you are stone cold liberal that can't admit liberals are actually part of the problem as well.

BTW I will say this one more time so you understand:

If I don't say something you think i should say that is your issue, not mine. My thoughts are MINE to express how I want to express them. Your crap about "what you don't say" is yet another bully tactic you think is clever to try and control the narrative. If I don't say it, you can just assume you don't know what I think on a subject. Is that clear enough for you? You don't have ANY right to my thoughts. If I choose to share them then I will share them, otherwise don't project your nonsense on me.

Clear? Is it? Crystal clear? Do you need me to explain it for you again?

You are comparing what someone said to all the things someone actually did? So that's must be the same as "I just want to find 11780 votes". Yeah, it's okay to say you could get things done if you had a third term. It's not okay to try to coerce the DOJ and state election officials to overturn an election. So since you don't trust politicians, it's fine to ignore that ONE OF THEM actually did everything in his power to overthrow our presidential election?

Yeah but Obama wore a tan suit. So, there’s that.

So it is ok to circumvent the constitution if you do it in a chair during a press interview?

g

What violence did I promote based on politics? Are you still droning on about a fictional book/film?



That's exactly what they said about trump long before he tried to steal the election. That's how it works when you try to shrug off and ignore things like this.


And you obviously have your panties in a bunch because I'm pointing out the obvious. Sure, all of us can say whatever we want. But acting like you're so offended when you get called on it is a you problem.


More excuses and trying to label someone a bully when they call you out.


No, everything is perfectly clear. I've explained it already.

Who did that?

I'm not playing into your stupid "gotcha" games.

If I say something I stand by it. If I don't say something you have no right to infare anything from it.

Is that part clear?

It's clear you're trying to silence me and that's not going to happen no matter how many tantrums you throw.

Of course you can't understand this.

You seem to think you have a right to a response from me.

You have no such right. I am telling you to take your petty little games and go find a sandbox that wants to play them, I do not.

BTW, using a word like "tantrum" shows you are still doing what you say you are not doing. It is a stupid little bully game you play.

TRINOs got to go.

Ah, playing the victim again I see. What I have the right to do is show how you minimize things like advocating political violence like we see in this ad. I know you don't like that but that's a you problem. I'll tell you what, you keep whining that I'm a bully and I'll keep saying you are throwing a tantrum.

You can say whatever you like, it is a free country, but it doesn't mean you are right about anything.

And I said you use bully tactics.. awe nevermind you can read it elsewhere.

I see the problem here. You have me confused with someone who gives a damn what you think. Only you can fix that.

That's bully tactics 101 from kindergarten.

Okay, you are a victim. You win.

Obama made the comment, and made zero effort to actually follow through with it. If I remember correctly, he even laughed afterwards. Trump actively tried to have an election overturned, and made contact with the people he believed would help him do so. He also spread the lie, and is still spreading the lie, that the election was stolen. So the 2 aren't really comparable.

The ad with the gun, while probably not going to happen, is shown as completely serious, and shows a guy busting down doors to hunt people he politically disagrees with. Will it happen? Probably not, but we should hold our politicians, and their ads, to a higher standard than that crap.

so your defense of this jerk is to say they are all crooks liars and cheats. Since when is that a true defense.

I don't remember ever hearing Obama wanted a 3r term.. I believe you are just making that up

So ... "If I had run again" can be translated to meaning Obama wanted a third term? Where did you get that advanced English degree from?

I didn't comment one way or the other. I saw the discussion and provided a quote on what he actually said. I actually liked Obama and voted for him twice. I would have voted for him again. Of course, your hateful soul chose to attack and belittle rather than accept the evidence for what it actually was.

How much more time have you dedicated to me than you have your own children today? Hell......every day?

So someone said Obama never sought a 3rd term.

In response you posted a quote that might appear to some that he was talking about a 3rd term.... I think many/most would interpret that not as you "merely quoting" Obama - but trying to insinuate that Obama had somehow saught a third term. But speculating on support for a 3rd term and seeking it are not the same.

If your intent was to merely show Obama did not seek a 3rd term - maybe adding a comment and some context would be helpful.

But you do you. Keep up with those personal attacks.

Have you ever thought it unhealthy to spend so much time focused on me? Go play w/your kids.

Yet here you are....

I don't focus on you - I respond to stuff on the board. I particularly respond to hypocrisy and double standards and posters (poster) who cries victim ALL the time. That just happens to be you. Stop lying, manipulating and being a hypocrite and I won't be responding to you.

And good work keeping up the personal attacks. I guess I should be thankful you aren't spamming false declarations of "Liar" and "EVIL" - but I did see the "hate in your soul" comment.

Actually, you responded to me and belittled my education. Hell, you used to belittle me for my career. Now, you are crying when I fight back. Who is the victim?

At least you got another member of your gutless We-We team to help you. You, Pit, and OCD ruin this board w/your daily crap.

Yes, anyone who calls you out on your BS gets labeled as bad by you. Should I report you?

It's so cute when the We-We team members support one another. Share a hug.

It's so cute when the "I am a victim" guy can't address his own words and lies. You did claim you reported a post because you got your little feelings hurt. So who's lying now?

That isn't how this went down. I posted this:


888 attacked that. I explained, but it wasn't good enough. You guys look for fights. You twist words around. You bully others daily. The two of you are bottom feeders.

That's your story and you're sticking to it. You know, you just accused me of cherry picking something and refusing to address anything else that was said beyond that. Now you're doing the same thing. imagine that.

And here you are claiming to be the victim of bullies again. Accusing others of the exact same things you are guilty of. Only when you do it, you don''t call yourself a bully. Things that make you go hmmmm for $500 Alex.

Drink another one.

Stop w/the drinking crap. I never drink during the afternoon except for some football games. I am not even a big drinker. I was upset for my wife the other night and had too many. I apologized. But now, you are using it as a weapon. Surprising behavior.

I did post that as a reply. What was the big freaking deal. There was a dispute in which Daman called Frank a liar. I posted Obama's quote. I didn't take sides.

Of course you and 888 get on my case and don't say a word to Daman because you know......he's a Democrat. Meanwhile, I explain that I voted for Obama twice and was willing to do so again and that still wasn't good enough. Like I said, you both suck and drag down this board w/your constant attacks on those who don't agree w/you. I typically ignore you both because the board gets cluttered w/all the bickering, but every once in awhile, I will stand up to you two board bullies.

jc

im starting to think conservatives get their rocks off more by shooting guns than shooting their shot at women.

Dude, at some point, look in the mirror. There are always fights on here, but a vast majority have 1 thing in common......you. Some you claim to be "fighting the bullies" but a lot of times it's you attacking. I mean, what the heck does his kids, or how much time he spends on the board concern you? You guys registered the same month, yet you have 40,000 more posts to your name. How is that relevant either way? I mean, you got into it with Purp the other day, and I haven't seen him argue with much of anyone over the course of the 2 boards.

I am not saying others are innocent entirely, but I do see you instigating a lot. You have a ton posts that just randomly bring up "fighting fairly" and "won't attack others as they do" or "I won't name call" but in doing so, you are instigating more "attacks" because there was nothing happening until you brought random crap up. You brought up someone's kids, and called another person an impotent old man.

People are always going to disagree, that's life. But you try to portray yourself as some victim, and in the next post, you're some "defender of the weak" against the bullies.

He can help it, he thinks the universe revolves around him. He can handle how insignificant any of us truly are because his ego won't allow it.

Okay, I will post how this started one more time. Daman made a comment to Frank. I quoted Daman and then provided a quote about what Obama really said. I did not take Frank's side or Daman's. I just put out the truth. And now this has been going on and on and on despite me saying I voted for Obama twice and would have voted for him again.



Here is my first appearance on this dumb-ass thread.









So no, I am not going to back down and you can kiss my ass, too!

WE RUIN THE BOARD? You need a big ass mirror. And you calling me gutless is a farce because the last time I called you out for that BS you got shut down and ran away. I've never been intimidated by a mouthy coward, bank that.

You're the only weewee I see.

Wow. I wasn't even speaking directly about that post, but for reference, I took it the same MGH did.

Also, no where in that quote does it say Obama is looking for a 3rd term.


I was speaking of the fact that you are constantly the one on this board who is engaged in fights nonstop. You attack and belittle others, as evidenced by the "impotent old man" and attacking someone's time spent with their kids, when you have zero clue how much time anyone spends with their kids, and honestly, it's none of your business either way. You constantly bring up people in posts they aren't even involved in, then claim "attacks" when they respond. Even if you don't always name people, you still poke the bear enough to get a response.

And honestly, others do it to you now too since it's a nonstop battle anymore. You can have a lot of good points about a lot of things, but I swear you love the constant conflict while playing victim.

I didn't think he was looking for a 3rd term. That is why I posted the statement w/out comment. I didn't want to insult anyone.

As for the rest...........I get it. 888 went three straight days where he only posted to me and about me and this has been an ongoing thing. But yeah, I am the one who starts the trouble. Have a nice night and I'll be sure to stop replying to you.

jc

so are we gonna not continue highlighting the fact that republican on republican violence is reaching all time highs? like, they're really out here eating their own.

Please do. Sick of the focus on me.

j/c

So, this just happened today. I got up. I worked. Made good money. I came home. Wife said she was going to her sisters early to help with food and what not for a family get together.

I left later, on a 10 1/2 mile 4 wheeler ride. Watched deer in fields, a red tailed hawk eating, even saw so many flowers in the ditches.....thought about stopping and pickinc some to put on Sammy the Cat's grave. Just took my time, riding, enjoying what time I had.

Gave cousins kids rides on the 4 wheeler. Talked with my nephews, ate, laughed. Swam. Had fun.

And in the back of my mind was "what am I missing on dawgtalkers" Get home, and find out I was missing nothing. Nothing at all except petulant people arguing. Tomorrow is a new day, and I will do the same. I get one life, and arguing on a message board, or just reading others arguing, isn't enhancing what time I have left. Too many have ego's so big they can't step back and enjoy life. I don't ever want to be that person that needs a message board to feel important.

Yet you just contradicted yourself by coming here to post that.

Lmfao this is hilariously pathetic.

“Man I had a great day…let me go on a message board and tell people about it!!” Hahahahahhaha

Arch just pulled the same crap every social media influencer does on IG. I’m now in the clear to assume he also photoshops his pics so he doesn’t get body shamed.

And nothing, I repeat NOTHING in that quote by Obama states anything close to him saying he wanted a third term. You claim to be well educated in English but don't seem to understand the language so well. And no matter how valuable you think your ass is, nobody is going to kiss it.

At the rate you're going soon you won't have anyone left on this board to respond to.

Vers has stated several times that he was only stating what Obama actually said. I don’t see why some of you are having such a hard time understanding.

It's not hard to understand the excuse he is now using just like it's not hard to understand what it was he meant.

'Mitt Romney Republican' is now a potent GOP primary attack

https://www.yahoo.com/news/mitt-romney-republican-now-potent-161724455.html

im guessing this MAGA wave is the tea party 2.0?

It's the Tea Party after using human growth hormones.

Who gives a damn what vers says?

HUGE... BIGLY difference between saying, I WANT A THIRD TERM and If I ran, I could win!

SO, NOWHERE does it say, Obama wanted a 3rd term

I never said it did. Unlike most of you, I was not taking sides. I was simply providing information to let people see for themselves. Of course, I have explained that numerous times. I agree w/P Dawg............not sure what is so hard to understand about that?

New to this post- as former Republican, life long, I'd like to throw my hat in ring supporting a good human being- namely Obama- JMHO, his heart is clear and good. Complete opposite of Trump.

Remember a retired Army Col. living in Texas who chanted the birther lies Trump made and some nonsense about a underground militia to keep Obama in power after his second term. The complete BS conspiracies spewed by Republicans for years is heartbreaking. The left has their fairyland folks in AOC, but how the hell people in Georgia can elect Greene to represent themselves is beyond me. These are the people I spent 25 yrs in military to ensure the next generation can live free. I support every walk of life, yet I never thought we'd be led by idiots. Trump dropping a nuke on a hurricane......God help us.

I'd vote for Rep. Adam Kinzinger in a heartbeat for President- never lose a night's sleep. Unfortunately, he's had enough of the lying and is quitting. Not before his whole family has been threatened with death. Ain't America Great.

It seems the bar for being elected president has gone from someone who stares into an eclipse without eye protection on one side and a guy who can't remember what he had for breakfast on the other side. God help us all.

Let's not forget General Flynn......



That's just sickening.

He should be stripped of rank and privilege.

That is the face of a traitor point blank.

DJT "I hire only the best people, the very best ones."

Seriously, Flynn has fallen off the deep end.

For that guy, I would buy the rope.

He can and should be called back into service so they can court marshal him and stick him in the can for the rest of his life.

I'd second that.....he's the type Trump surrounds himself with, butt kissers.

Well, from what I can tell, you are safe.. You aren't a RINO,,,You are a full on MAGA head...... So you appear to be safe.
