Random Political Discussion

They may be crazy, but I bet they're honest.

(I bet you remember Birch Bayh.)

I liked Birch Bayh. I also liked Evan Bayh when he was governor. Richard Lugar was a Republican, but I liked him too. We've had some good politicians from Indiana. I'm an oddball but I liked Mike Pence as governor, and I didn't have a problem with Dan Quayle even though some people tried to make them out as idiots. At least I think they were of good character whether I agreed with their politics or not. Indiana was a good place to be raised in the 60's (especially my hometown of Anderson). Anderson has turned into a impoverished looking city after GM left. Even though I stated Indiana was a good place to be raised in the 60 s, I agree with that saying that you can never go home, at least that's true in my case.

I wasn't too far from you in Crawfordsville. We had a 4H fairgrounds in town. My dad managed the G.C. Murphy store in town. I was in elementary school when we moved, one older sibling graduated high school there, another was in his last year or two of high school, and one was a freshman. The older siblings have gone back to visit friends (we had no relatives there), but that was a long time ago. Satellite images look like Crawfordsville has grown...at least, my old neighborhood seems more crowded.

'Biscuit’ the dog is latest dead felon to get their voting rights back from Virginia Gov. Spanberger, confused owner says...
A Southside Virginia lawmaker is demanding an investigation after a constituent received an official rights-restoration certificate for his dog, Biscuit, a beagle-hound mix from Goochland County that died about five years ago.

The discovery follows the “Betty No Last Name” controversy in Chesapeake — where a purported convict lacking a surname had “her” rights restored — and raises fresh questions about the governor’s vetting process just days before voters decide whether to make felons’ voting-rights restoration automatic via an Election Day ballot measure supported by Richmond Democrats.

“Biscuit was a dog. Biscuit has been dead for five years.”

They are grooming Spanberger for the White House. She stole the state Senate seat that was her stepping stone to the state house when 15,000 midnight votes--all for her--mysteriously showed up.

You can hardly go wrong with a name like that.

Sounds like that same "midnight delivery service" that showed up for Biden.

@Tom Galty -- I can hardly believe that this stuff is happening in the UK.

Warming us up for the theft:

Well. Texas has fallen. Gov. Abbott has conceded, and Tallerico mopped the floor with Paxton.
