Post whore. Laughing at your own post. :ohno:

Of course it’s her positions. She makes Liz Warren look positively sensible.

Here comes the parade of celebrity know-nothing political candidates. She probably won't win, but it's just a matter of time before donks have a candidate that will get some resonance with voters.
I’m all for abolishing ICE as well. Just set up a sentry post every half mile along the southern border, give one audible warning to illegal crossers, then shoot them on sight. It would save a shit-ton of taxpayer funds and send an unmistakable message.
Bring home the troops and equipment from Germany and use them along the border. :nod:

No I have not. It's interesting because I've had plenty of opportunity to. There are 14 people in the country who do the job I do and each of us is responsible for covering a number of States. But, typically, someone in my position also does international work. Everyone else has done it but I haven't.

I almost went to do work in Canada once. Got my passport and everything. Then I decided not to go. That was no problem because there is always someone else who wants to do it. As soon as I opted out someone else opted in. The only assignment I think about that maybe I might have wanted to do is New Zealand.

Many years ago I asked if I absolutely HAD to do international work. I was basically told that it might hurt my career some if I didn't but, no, I didn't have to if I really didn't want to.

It's interesting because I am the one who has done what I do the longest. I'm also the best by far at certain things like analytical design and data analysis. But I made a decision that I'm not going to do international work so it is what it is. And I'm comfortable with the decision.
You are truly missing out on some amazing experiences

You are truly missing out on some amazing experiences
I'm sure I have but there is no way one is going to live their life without missing some amazing experiences. The way I look at it is this: You could spend your entire life trying to experience and/or see everything that is available in the Continental United States and you would never see/experience it all. There are people who spend their adult lives traveling the world and they see a lot of things I will never see. But they also will never see a lot of things I have seen by virtue of the fact that I have been to all corners of the Continental United States via driving rather than flying. I have driven from Louisiana to Seattle, San Diego, Key West Florida, and Maine. And I've driven to all sorts of places in between, criss crossing the continental United States.

I have missed some amazing experiences. But I have also had some amazing experiences that people who travel to other places in other ways have not had.

Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

They're locked in now. They'd lose too much face changing their mind so they become no-hope-bitter-enders. :coffee:

A recent Harvard-Harris poll found that African Americans favor reducing legal immigration more than any other demographic group: 85% want less than the million-plus we allow on an annual basis, and 54% opted for the most stringent choices offered — 250,000 immigrants per year or less, or none at all.
Why are those knee-grows such bigotry-filled, bigoted bigot-bigots? :ohno:
