The one notable exception is his quixotic fixation with High Speed Rail. I’m not sure Newsom will exercise the same discipline. You guys had to do something regarding your pensions. I cant believe your legislature just kept passing it off. I'm always surprised how much power your prison guard union has as well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nevada Convert Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 I guess it’s not surprising that the number of folks that came to the US the legal way do support strong border security and are upset with the folks in the Caravan cutting in line to get in. In other news, big Caravan supporter Alec Baldwin punched a man driving a Dodge Caravan after he cut in front of Alec & took his parking spot. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IanforHeisman Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 To think, if America didn’t love blow and minded their phukking business in South America, there wouldn’t be an issue. Nobody wants to leave their homeland with warm weather and beautiful landscapes to pick fruit in Oklahoma. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
