Personally I've been very conservative in my smack in name calling, simply because this is a Sooner Board, mostly visited by Sooner fans. The last Board I posted on was inhabited by fans from all areas and schools and the fur flew thick and heavy. There was more than one 8th, ie jackazz and they weren't all Liberal.
This place is pretty tame in comparison.

BOY HOWDY !!!!
Put a lid on it! Kiss it goodbye. We gave it away, and apparently thought it made sense to do so.
Maybe Jim can help lead the world in environmental issues. Kind of like putting Mark Mangino in charge of the menus/portion control. He's the most bought and sold politician that we have. And, the best pilot in the field. Honestly, the way he reacted to his "wrong way Newton" fiasco in Dallas/Ft. Worth should have had him removed from office immediately.
Cling to...like "my cold dead hands". That's the saying. Everyone loves the Constitution and the 2nd Amendment but for "a well regulated militia". Cray cray.
Oh no he didn't. I didn't know who the hell he was when he first started posting here but in his very first response to me he called me a racist. He didn't imply it, he called me a "racist". He was like that with evereybody right off the bat and that's why a lot of us think he was just a troll.
Beware the man who would rule you for your own good. He will never cease. He will regulate every aspect of your life, destroy your liberty and enslave you, and sleep well convinced that he has made the world a better place.
Weak. I would respond with hillary's short comings and public faux pauxs but I really need to be somewhere in 4 hours. So tell me how people "cling" to their religion? You know that word carries a negative connotation and implies the thing they are clinging to is irrational or stupid.
You really don't see why you come off as arrogant and elitist when you say things like that, do you? That is so typical of the left. If you don't believe me go to Realclearpolitics.com, click on any NYT opinion piece and read the comments section. The feeling of superiority by the liberal readers of that liberal echo chamber is palpable. It sustains them in their daily lives even as they ignore the results of their progressive "wisdom" in places like Baltimore, Detroit, California and Chicago.

Meanwhile you think hillary is A-OK. So tell me laughing boy, who deserves the most laughter directed his or her way.....the Senator of the state of Oklahoma or the 67 year old lying, cheating, scandal ridden nominee of the Democrat Party? If hillary is the democratic nominee will you vote for her? If so you have no reason to ever laugh at or question anybody's choice of candidates.

I am like you, I will continue to vote for the GOP over the Socialist Party. I too am disgusted with the numbers of Republicans that have "gone along" with the attacks on our Constitution, and the expansion of the scope, power and involvement of the Federal Government in the lives of citizens of this once great nation.
For the GOP, a whole bunch of them need to "grow a pair" and stand up for the same beliefs that got them elected in the first place. So many become part of the DC culture, which demands that you assist in the power grab that has been going on now for decades, despite the obvious perils they present to our Republic, and the predictably bad outcome, that is sure will result.
I ask the libs here, do you really believe that if we continue on this path, that the future of this country will be secure, our freedoms will be protected and that our standard of living will not diminish?

Whatever, Obama is the first Democrat that I voted for. My first presidential election was in 88. I stayed the same. The middle moved. Reagan couldn't win now.
If you're going to paint anything I type off of the usage of the word "cling" then so be it. The state of oklahoma clings to religion via things like Sharia Law (my personal fav), Referendum on Marriage (the change that, I think, removed Common Law Marriage for Okies), the 10 Commandments displays, that preacher trying to get rid of AP history, Sally Kearn (Freedom to Obtain Conversion Therapy Act), James Lankford, et al. I've taught Sunday School in the past and have been involved in the administration of churches. I'm not a heathen. The "persecution" that some of my friends reference of us poor Christians in eastern Oklahoma is laughable. I giggle internally after listening to a prayer over the loudspeaker at my kids' school.

The "middle moved"? Surely you are not of the position that the middle moved to the right are you?
If you want to be honest about "movement" then admit how far left the Democratic party has moved. One of my pet peeves is the insinuation that the GOP has moved far to the right. Only in relation to the Democratic Party could anyone ever feel the GOP has moved to the right. Anything looks to the right when compared to the Democratic Party. Heck if JFK came back today, he would be kicked out of the Democratic Party. His "ask not what your country can do for you, but ask what you can do for your country" is diametrically opposite of the platform of the Democratic Party. And a "TAX CUT"? are you kidding me.
The moniker of "Democratic Lite" fits this Republican Party quite well thank you. And if you want to talk about voter apathy, look no further than it's conservative base staying home in the last few Presidential elections. When there is no remarkable differences in the candidates, why vote? There are more Sic'Ems out there than people may believe.
