    Hard to see Senator Al Gore ever doing that

    Joe, it's much worse than that. It's what you just said, plus the primary was rigged for her, she was given debate questions, had illegals and dead people vote for her, and they bugged President Trump's phones........AND SHE STILL LOST!

    I don't have time to go back the other sources that stated this but this paragraph was from your article:

    It also says "It’s still unclear what sparked the incident in the picturesque Rivergreen subdivision on Bowling Green’s eastside."

    I think it would be better to wait until the cops finish the case to determine what really happened.

    As opposed to advancing some theory that Boucher was some crazed liberal bent on beating up a conservative?

    Or that it was caused by a disagreement over landscaping. It could be either or something else entirely.

    One of us is quoting neighbors, the other is citing media who merely scanned facebook in search of information to advance a predisposed theory. Equivalent?

    What is your problem, SH? Geez. Yes, both are equal. Yours and Joe's stories both claim to have talked to neighbors for their opinions. Who the hell knows what the real story is? Whatever the hell is up your *** let it go.

    Heartfelt apologies to you, SH. I shouldn't have talked to you like that.

    Good for you, Garmel. It takes character to admit you've stepped over the line in an online forum. I've had to do it myself before, and it's not fun. However, it keeps forums like this civil and more enjoyable for those of us who visit it.

    Actually SH was over the line with far more than his typical level of snark.

    Rand Paul had not spoken to Boucher in years.
    Boucher blindsided him.
    Political violence is on the rise in our little country. And it needs to be chilled, without haste. Federal charges here would be one small step in the right direction.

    My bad, I went back and read JoeFan's articles and noticed they also quoted local residents. The initial paragraph that was quoted was not representative of rest of the article that was more fair. You are correct that in the end this is a he said/he said and I'll wait for the outcome of any investigation.

    Any of you want to bid on Fox?


    "Shares in media-entertainment giant 21st Century Fox surged to seven-month highs Friday after news it has been holding talks with at least three potential buyers for some of its television and film operations.

    A source familiar with the discussions said Comcast, Verizon and Sony are among the suitors in "preliminary" talks for the assets, which include Fox's stake in the British pay TV group Sky and its movie and television studio properties...."

    4th_floor Dude, where's my laptop?

    Well Boucher's family has a history of this. I can't believe no one has mentioned his son.

    Want to guess who the New Yorker blamed for the attack by the crazy Democrat on the Republican senator?

    Trump must be fearful of another major agenda item legislative collapse...distraction required. Maybe the distraction is from the news that Flynn is now working with Mueller?

    Project Veritas failed in their attempt to plant fake news in the WaPo. They tried to get the Washington Post to bite on a story that Moore had impregnated a 15yr old girl in 1992.

    Veritas can't win them all. It's only a matter of time before the dishonest Post will get what's coming to them.

    I'll let Ben Shapiro represent my thoughts absent the ACORN sentiment.
    Ben Shapiro tweet OKeefe.PNG

    When will his supporters stop enabling O'Keefe. Per his tax filings, PV received $4.3M last year to this "charity". As an aside, how crazy is it that PV is a "charity" and his supporters get tax deductions for donating to that clown show?

    The same way people get tax deductions for donating to any of the thousands of left wing clown shows that hide behind 401c3 status.

    I personally don't think any of those political organizations should get tax exemption status. Right, left, center...doesn't matter.

    I agree with you. As long as you are willing to stick to that principle no matter the organization's political slant, we can find common ground.
