I saw one of those the other day. It is kind of interesting, the originator of that thread includes some very specific instructions about how to vote and some very specific things NOT to do in casting a vote to avoid invalidating votes. On every single thread that I have looked at, the FIRST violation of the instructions was a Trump voter.

I would vote for Rubio and I see no one voting for anyone but Trump or Cruz and I find that hard to believe. People are probably afraid of being harassed for being a RINO voting for anyone else bc that’s the FR way. RME. I am so disgusted with the behavior of freepers toward each other I can’t even begin to tell you. INTOLERANCE reigns.

Yeah, and if Rosie and Whoopie and Mikey and Clooney would really make good on their threat to move to Canada then that also might be reason to vote for Trump; but like all promises made by liberals during political campaign it is all fluff and no substance.

It does appear to be pretty much a two-horse race. The funny thing is that if you click on his link to the previous thread results, the chart shows Cruz with the red bar on the graph and Trump with the blue bar. So even there it is pretty clear that Red-state values go with Cruz and Blue-state values go with Trump. As I’ve been saying all along: Trump is a democrat running for the GOP nomination.

I will vote for the nominee, whoever that is, since I don’t think the economy can take another 4 years of liberal Lala land policies, whether from liberal Hillary or socialist Bernie-but I still do not relish getting fooled again with another looser Rino-does no one in the establishment remember the definition of insanity?...

Hillary may have a lot of nerve
But would any reasonable advisor
Let her say e-mails and conspiracy
Around those who may despise her?

For the nonce it is being allowed
Is Bill really agreeable to that?
She doesn’t care about we humans
Any more than she did with her cat

Socks wasn’t needed for an illusion
After she and Bill ended their show-
It’s good that a secretary took him
Or he’d have ended up out in the snow

I don’t think so but I have been greeted with “Brady be praised” more than once

Actually that usually happens when I go to Lynn or Revere...

I am rapidly losing Husky girl-spending all my time with her and giving her whatever she wants-she is only awake and active for a few minutes at a time, then lies down and drifts into what is probably the next life. She seems content, is not in pain or distress, so I’m letting her go naturally, like nearly all my other pets have done.

The electrician I work with has a backhoe and a bobcat for excavation work on jobsites when it is necessary-I told him Saturday at work I was sad to be losing my beloved Husky to old age-he has 3 shelter cats and a Mastiff, so he sympathized-I was surprised today, when after we were done with work, he trailered his backhoe, hauled it to my place and offered to dig a nice burial place for Husky girl under her favorite tree-free-as a favor from one pet lover to another-he wouldn’t accept cash from me, but he did accept some chicken salad, a couple of pears and a beer from the fridge-we ate lunch on the deck, and he told me about the latest emotional pain visited on he and his wife by their eldest son who always seems to be in jail on drug charges or in rehab, and I listened as a case manager and friend-a fair trade.

So thanks to another person who believes that pets are family, when the time comes, my dog will rest under the oak on her favorite part of the property...

I’m concerned about the ungrateful shelter cat lately. He is wheezing on and off and passing blood on occasion from a mystery site. He hasn’t been to the vet in years. Since he’s an indoor kitty, I don’t see any reason to haul him in every year for vaccinations to things he is never exposed to. He is still eating and drinking but is about 13.

My ungrateful shelter cats haven’t been to the vet in forever, either, for the same reasons-they are totally indoor cats-last one was Midget girl, when she was spayed-but that was more than 2 years ago...

You might want to take your kitty in, though-age seems to be a relative thing with shelter cats depending on the conditions they lived in and for how long before rescue-Yeti boy is 14-15 and fine, but he was only out for a couple weeks before rescue-so 13 could be old if a cat had a bad previous life.

Thank you-she has had a good and pampered life, and she is after all 17 years old-a long life for a big dog.
