Schumer... looking creepier and creepier.
Thanks. The face is the mirror of the mind....
Good to know. I don’t know as I’ve ever read the Q thread before & all I know about is from fellow conservative friends who might be unknowingly influenced by the press. Thank you for providing the information. It’s made me change my perspective. You are a convincing advocate & I appreciate your friendly approach.
I agree with you about the negativity. I have always believed in optimism & self confidence. Free Republic was always something that projected that, but during the last couple of elections it’s become so dominated by defeatists & passimists. Seeing any Conservative adopt that posture hits me hard because I can see exactly where it leads. What those folks have lost sight of is that nothing is permanent. Anything can be overcome. In reality the only sure loser is the one that has convinced himself he can’t win. When we people broadcasting that on our side, it infuriates me. Once you have enough people on any political team airing their pessimism & lack of faith, it convinces many of the people reading or listening to feel the same way. Unfortunately many of those people will believe the election is pointless & will end up not voting.
I dont think our losses in recent elections are completely due to fraud. I’ve seen good & strong conservatives full of faith & enthusiasm get swallowed up by the pessimistic beliefs of of other conservatives & sit out an election because encountering that negativity had convinced them that their vote wouldn’t matter anyways. Many of the negative people may just be expressing angst or thinking out loud. I don’t know that most of them mean to cause others not to vote. But, our side needs to become more aware that when we talk about expectations of loss, it will convince just enough of our voters to not vote and lose elections. 😉
Re Macron:
Well, s/he wears a terrible wig. I don’t believe any woman with her wealth would pick such an ill-fitting wig.
Totally agree with what you wrote! I will. I’ll approach this thread with an open mind. I’m hoping that the members of the Q thread are optimistic & don’t expect loss. The Right is a bit askew right now. We need some leadership with a happy warrior mentality. I totally understand the crippled state all of our institutions are in. I’m a realist about that! But I also believe anything can be overcome! Nothing is permanent- other than God! 😊😉
We can make it on our social security, barely. The problem is our IRAs are in the toilet. So we can’t touch them.

I spoke to a woman once. Then I married her.
