Quote:Gov. Lee says prayers for state will be answered
Quote:NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee says if residents pray to God to favor the state, God will answer those prayers.
Speaking to religious leaders on Tuesday, Lee said he declared a statewide day of prayer and fasting in October because he knows for sure that God answers prayers.
Lee said he prays that Tennessee does not experience a school shooting, that the state’s opioid epidemic will diminish and that Tennessee’s educational outcomes improve. If thousands of people offer similar prayers, he believes God will impart his favor on Tennessee.
Tell me again why we didn't let these morons secede.

The right honorable Guv'nor got elected to handle business. Why's he passing the buck?

I feel like the 19th century has returned and some schmucks (read: Republicans) have voted all the corrupt bosses and politicians back into office in a way that we haven't seen in 150 years.

Fear not — it is banished. Crush it, and it vanishes. Stamp upon it, and it dies.

Amusing, Danu. Joe Walsh made the same point in a Wall Street Journal piece this morning!
https://www.rawstory.com/2019/12/the-rep...ngressman/
Quote:“The Republican Party effectively no longer exists,” Walsh continues. “It’s been stolen from its longtime supporters, donors, volunteers, voters, members and elected representatives. The Party has been overrun and forced to abandon its principles of limited government, free trade and a strong national defense.”
Republican voters no longer have options, except for the whoever the party bosses have chosen, Walsh laments, adding the GOP seemingly doesn’t trust its own voters consider a candidate other than Trump.

I've thought for a while that this is like the Gilded Age redux, with tycoons running the show, and populism rearing its head.

Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it. Much to our misfortune, the human species is a very forgetful animal.

At least he didn't declared that some sacrifices will be needed, otherwise quite a few sons might start worrying.
There is only one good, knowledge, and one evil, ignorance.

Something about remembering the past, as if the PAST matters. Like OLD TIMES are like, "today", or something...

I'll agree to that... What other animals have any sense of "history".

Reactions to mean people and I rather like that. Take no chit... Mine aren't like that. Besides, they don't remember they were fed 10 minutes ago. So much for "history'.

You're confusing opportunism with lack of historical awareness. If you feed them when they run a con they'll keep running it. Doesn't mean they don't remember that you were five minutes late TWICE for the regular meal times back in 2001.
