Oh, I did it daily in school, like everybody else.
Then Red Skelton explained what I was doing, so I stopped.
At my high school, every Tuesday morning, 2nd period has a few minutes set aside in the schedule for the Pledge. Usually someone from ASB will lead it over the PA. Every year students notice that I won’t say it, or salute in any way. It makes for an interesting lesson in an American Government class. After we cover WVBoE vs Barnette, they understand.
Thought-provoking excerpt:
Can we rule out the possibility that watching Carlson’s show and listening to Johnson’s speeches IS killing people???
Ron Johnson has been suspended from YouTube for seven days for pushing hydroxychloroquine.
Sidney Powell’s lawyer says that “reasonable people” would understand that political speech is often “inexact.” and that people should have viewed her remarks with skepticism due to her association with Trump.
“Powell’s position as a lawyer advocating for her client makes it far more likely that the audience would filter her comments as partisan opinion, not less,”
The governor of Missouri is about to sign a bill authorizing police in his state to ignore federal gun control laws.
Tom Cotton: There was no racism in the military until Biden became President.
^ Can I borrow that image for Missouri’s “aaaaa you don’t have to worry about yer guns no more” legislation?
Absolutely. I stole borrowed it, after all.
This part made me snort:
Now I no longer have to pay Metro fares; I simply run toward a moving train and peel myself off its side when I get to my stop.
But actually… you have to wait for the vaccine to wear off to 60% effectiveness before you can “exit the train”, so time your ride accordingly…
… Charlie.
Last night, governor Kristi Noem (Q-SD) announced that country legend Reba McIntire would be performing at a $500-per-person fundraiser for her.
This announcement came as some surprise to country legend Reba McIntire, who says she received no invitation, doesn’t play fundraisers or get involved in politics, and would not be attending.
Hopefully The Nuge will come and save the day, if Noem doesn’t mind her rock a little varmint-hunty.
Last time he got an invite from the government, he shit his pants.
So Republicans are just going full-out on the Trumpian theory that It Doesn’t Matter If What You Say Is True, eh?
Just announce that Reba McIntire is fundraising for you, that the Pope has endorsed you (worked for Trump!), that Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has agreed to head your re-election campaign, and that the Country Music Hall of Fame, the National Football League, and NASCAR have all made you their honorary chairs.
What are those entities going to do…deny it?
And if they do, what difference will that make, given that Republican voters never have a problem with even the most egregious of liars?
Nitpick: the most egregious of Republican liars.
especially the ones in the Department of Redundancy Bureau
It’s “The Department of Redundancy Department.”
You can say that again!
