Yep, been going on a while. Emigrate out of a place that you turned into a sht hole, then try to change it into exactly what you left- culture of the locust. Check the UHaul trucks pulling car trailers- chances are pretty good the car will have Commifornia plates. My idea if I ever move again- pick a place so unattractive that even the low end Commifornians won't stop there to take a dump.

When you find that place let me know! I’d like to move there too! Ha!

Living in the Midwest I can not understand how we have gotten to this point in Society. Chicago controls all of Illinois thru the Democratic Super Majority. So all the Chicago ideas are trickled downstate....what ruined Chicago is going to ruin the rest of illinois. Most of those in the Legislature making the laws affecting the rest of us have zero knowledge of how we live downstate. A friend once said....take those out of Chicago and the concrete lifestyle, they could not walk on grass without falling down. A metaphor well understood by us downstate. Hell, they all think we have a Southern accent, on top of being ill informed on the ways of the world. I truly believe we are past the point of no return for common sense leadership and strict interpretation of the constitution. I wish future generations the best, but am doubtful it will happen, as we have known it.

One only has to drive through the southern most town in Illinois - Cairo - to see how Chicago ideas have ruined parts of that state. It is like a rural East St. Louis.

This seems to be a international card, employed by liberals everywhere! (Pictured above the Canadian version).

I think the getting acquainted part of the relationship between China Communist Party and their boy Bidet as president and leader of the free world is completed. The only question now is how soon will China attack Taiwan. If China learned anything from their losses in Vietnam, they should delay the military portion and get a solid propaganda effort going in the US so that any attempt by the military-industrial complex to convince Bidet to intervene will be met by "mostly" peaceful protests and media condemnation.

Losses in Vietnam?!? The North Vietnamese were primarily supported by the Soviet Union. The Vietnamese and Chinese have hated one another for hundreds of years. It actually turned into a brief armed conflict in 1979.

I laughed out loud at Biden's emotive vision of possible small family gatherings during the 4th of July. It just underscores the bubble in which his advisors and speech writers exist. They truly have no concept how the country is actually functioning away from the West Coast and the Northeast.

Or our favorite "neighborhood" chicken fried steak dive today at lunch. It has looked just like this for more than six months.

In North Carolina BBQ is a noun and not a verb!

XI is committed to re-taking Taiwan, the only question is when and how. Given what has happened in Hong Kong it is unlikely that Taiwan will be fooled by the promise of a 'One Country - Two Systems' type arrangement. That only leaves the military option. With a feeble minded President, a leftist Congress and a delusional media, American will never be less likely to take effective action. If left till 2024, American leadership may change. That narrows XI's window of opportunity to between now and 2024. In an ideal world, XI would like to have everything finalised before the 2022 mid terms, just in case a large number of hawks entered Congress and signal an American resurgence. This further narrows his window of opportunity to between now and early 2022. After Taiwan is 'resolved' it will be the turn of the South China Sea and the greater Pacific area.

Centerville on the north side of Taylor. Be prepared to drink your beer from a bottle.

Centerville or Circleville Store? Have passed Circleville Store many times but never stopped.

Circleville Store - sorry - was back in another state Biden would understand.

I also understand completely. We'll have to try it out. Thanks.

Biden might understand, but he certainly wouldn't remember it.

Thank you for pointing out the speck in my eye - too bad about the plank.
