What value is a first relationship, presumed, to a man in his 50’s?

Tim Scott endorsed Lisa Murkowski over her conservative opponent.

He’s just another member of the uni-party.

There’s no value in it (if he’s gay).

There is little value in it if he was straight either. If you’ve gone all your life as a single man, that becomes comfortable and lifelong single people don’t want to make time for somebody in their life.

Supports Murkowski and Mitch McConnell (over Trump).

Criticized Jan 6th, but was behind the BLM Riots.

He’s an Idiot first, then a RINO.



Had to see the Polls before he could decide whether the DoJ was biased.

Good for him. Think of all the moeny saved not having a wife spend it on white house trivialities. No special white house staffers for her either. Less SS/security costs.

This has been discussed a few times, here on Free Republic. Some Freepers hold it against Tim Scott, that he isn’t married. Those Freepers feel its required that you be married.

I disagree, but some of our fellow Freepers see marriage as a requirement.

See if some show up here to explain themselves.

We need a Senator for Prez like we need Martial Law.

We need another RINO like we need more Debt.

I’d much rather have a single man as president than a loser with a wife like Big Mike, Dr. Jill or Hillary.

“Scott, 57”

Many women of similar age are widows who might get a deceased husband’s Social Security when they reach age 62.

Marriage might also impact the divorce arrangements a lady friend might have made.

We don’t need evidence, here on Free Republic. People here drop these bombastic one liners, sometimes using vulgar language , and think they have made some impressive point,

Scott has reached the highest point in politics he is likely to get to.

I went to his web page and he seems to be even more money hungry than the Massachusetts warrior was.

It only matters to those who practice ID politics.

Today’s WSJ has an article about two guys splendidly fixing up exceptional mid-century houses in California.

I would vote for Tim Scott against the democrat. However, Tim Scott has been disappointing. He is my disappearing Senator.

If he’s not representing you or showing up to local events, that would be a reason to vote against him on merit.

If I were a representative, I’d think it would be my obligation to show up for local events and I shouldn’t hesitate to do so because of my willingness to represent my people.

Folks without children have a different world view, look at all the childless leaders in Europe, like Angela Merkel. It’s not a healthy thing IMHO.

Exactly. When you have children, you think about the world you will be leaving them.

One of my biggest concerns right now is if my kids will ever be able to own their own home. This trumps many of the concerns I had before I brought my own children into the world.

What are the donors afraid of? A second gay African-American president?

I guess it’s too much to ask Tim to pay attention.



No one is above the Law, eh Tim?
