  • NPR was just discussing this a few minutes ago.

    The Democrats put the majority of their push behind abortion thinking that would be the turn out vote and it didn’t seem to be.

    More people voted for Trump because of the economy based on exit polling and (surprisingly) more women voted for him this time as well.

    There was also more votes coming from younger people who hadn’t been through a recession before and were just basically voting ‘opposite party’ because they were tired of their money going nowhere. The voting trend was something that had been seen in several other countries recently.

    Yeah this doesn’t do squat to prove or disprove anything to these nutters.

    I’ve done the same with a variety of other things and you will get told the same thing:

    God put it here.

    Thing is you cannot argue with the above statement because it falls into that sort of argument you used to have when you were a child when the other kid would say ‘Nyah! Last word!!’ or ‘I can’t hear you!!’

    My cat is permanently the one in the upper left hand corner. We’ve had people come to visit and ask if something is wrong with her only to see her raise her head up, look at them then lay back down and start snoring again.

    We joke she is living the good life.



  • Am in NC but have family right over the state line in TN. Can tell you they got it as bad if not worse in places. Where the Nolichuckey winds through some of the mountain counties there are areas where all the bridges/roads in those counties are completely washed out. The water isn’t receding fast enough either.

    We’ve been in continual contact with friends who are completely stranded. No way in to the area and no drinkable water.

    The news is not covering it and what they are is making it sound like there are only a handful of deaths when in reality there are probably dozens of people (or more) missing.

    Am afraid this is going to just all get brushed aside for some other ‘News blip’ come next week.
