The Media is also trying to ignore that 9/11 was perpetrated by MUSLIM terrorists.  Another example of them lying by omission, and re-writing history to advance the pro Muslim narrative.  I wonder if in fifty years they will take down any 9/11 monuments as "offensive" like they have with 100+ year old Confederate statues?

“Some people did some things.”  Get with the program, Anthony.

Ha!

Trump would be safe. No bird would try for his ginormous ones.

I’ve been encouraged to get these colorful socks they guys are wearing now - “they make a statement” people say.

Yes, yes they do. And that’s why I don’t wear them.

The longest I’ve been able to ignore the news has been about two days. It was blissful! I’d love to extend that. But you have to be able really to keep an iron grip on your thoughts ... because you know, and can see everywhere, that the left’s grip on our country is ever tightening through its ceaseless grinding and chipping and attempt to define our lives and our culture.

I ignored 100% of the news from 7/17 -7/28 when I was up at OSH. If I checked my phone or FB, it was to EAA or aviation pages only. It was glorious. Once home, I felt no need to watch national news for over a week.

^^^^THIS.  This is literally true. The U.S. being a unique experiment in freedom, does not conquer and occupy, it conquers and rebuilds until the country can stand on its own. Look at Japan and Germany and South Korea. It is vital the U.S. remain the strongest military force in the world.

Spot on. All we ask is for a place to bury our dead.

If you want a powerful afternoon, page through the website of the American Battle Monuments Commission that is charged with overseeing and staffing every foreign military cemetery for US Servicemen.

It’s also good to send that to any snot-nosed, basement-dwelling leftist who complains about American imperialism because they have McDonalds restaurants in their country. These people have no idea that the US is the most selfless, giving country on the face of the earth. 

Problem with medical care is it really doesn't work according to the economics that govern other things.  If you want a car, you wait until  you have the financial wherewithal, you then shop for the car that meets your specifications for the lowest price.

You never know when you're going to get sick or how bad.  You simply can't plan for it.  Moreover, once you're sick you're in no position to shop or bargain.  You really can't be an informed consumer when it comes to health care.  Market economics don't work for medicine, they never have.

What no one really realizes is the system we have was put in place to solve a problem, that's why it's there.  The funny thing is it was put in place at least partially through the efforts of Richard Nixon, who I think would be regarded as a flaming liberal today, were he regarded at all.

Gee, if only here was an industry they helped to limit the risks of individuals not being able to plan for getting sick, where you pay a monthly fee and don’t have to shop around for the best price provider. 

I guess this is one of the things that makes me a libertarian, not a conservative. I don't think substances should be banned, least of all beer.  Second, I don't think the picture of the scantily clad man and three women is undignified, immodest, or in bad taste.  Third, I see nothing wrong with polygamy as long as it is between consenting adults, and the man, not the taxpayer, supports all his wives and kids. But most of all, I don't like government telling me I cannot buy a harmless beer because somebody thinks the label is offensive (subjective opinion) or because polygamists brewed it (religious discrimination, no?)

How can I get some of this stuff shipped to my family in NC?

What makes you attribute this to conservatism?  Serious question.

Having lived in Charlotte for 6 years and traveled North and South Carolina extensively, in a state that hates Catholics (which I am) more than almost anything, I would say the Bible Belt mentality vastly overrides political party.

NC has state-controlled liquor stores, called ABC stores. They don’t just regulate liquor, as all states do, they control it. I left NC in 2006

A quick check shows the NC State Senate was controlled by Democrats from 1992-2013. The NC State House was controlled by Democrats from 1992-3013.

In 2016 the governorship flipped back to a Democrat.

Just saying it’s a fallacy to attribute the patriarchy of the NC booze business to conservatism.

No.
The purpose is to fly FAST.

I’ll take flying a 200HP 1943 Fairchild PT-26 at 110mph at 1,000 AGL with the canopy open and my arm on the canopy rail any day of the week.

THIS is flying.
