Please make the stupid stop it is hurting my head

Some TN lawmakers think the new slop sink was installed for Muslims to use to cleanse their feet before praying. Not one of them could figure out it is easier to fill and empty a mop bucket in a low slop sink. The other thing that is stupid is mounting the sink a few feet from an electrical breaker panel.

They are afraid of their own shadows. The neocon plan apparently works on them.

What's ironic is they are the commies now and don't even know it. That's how thoroughly they have been brainwashed. I kind of feel sorry for them as they call people sheeple. But, like the KGB agent said, some people can't see a fact even when their noses are rubbed in it. When their usefulness is complete they will be lined up and shot.

It's bizarre how they hold the Bible in one hand and Atlas Shrugged in the other. Clueless. Absolutely. F*cking. Clueless.

Very true and Rand was an atheist and the philosophy of objectivism is modelled around atheism. I believe it was Paul Ryan, who handed out copies of "Atlas Shrugged" to his staffers. Then he back pedalled, as fast as he could, away from Ayn Rand when it was pointed out to him that she had been an atheist. That is the true definition of clueless.

I believe the clearances are code-compliant.

Many philosophers, maybe even a majority, believe that Communism is the only solution to distribution of global resources. In short they believe that someone has to have control of it all and then dole out stuff as needed.

Francis Fukuyama, in his book "The End of History and the Last Man", noted that society seemed to be stopping "one train stop short" of communism. He had a precise definition of what that "one train stop short" is. The definition is about a page long but in short it is a mixed economy.

There are still powerful people that want the train to run to the last stop. There are no two ways about it.
