It is too late to be contrite. People ultimately get the government they deserve. Elections only work if voters pay attention.

James, while your views on things are not often the same as mine, I respect our right to have those views. As to this thread it is my view that it takes a good man to admit he was wrong, and an even bigger man to put that in print! Eric

Not buying it. You are way to late. Words matter. MD

I appreciate your post here James. I've never looked at you as the enemy and I accept your premise. Politicians are master manipulators and you bought in. Let's work to stop the burning of our rights together.

Good on you James!

Well, Jim you couldn't predict the Senate would go to the Dems. When Dems get control of all the Congress and President they do stuff, not like the R's who make promises and win elections on those promises and rarely do them when they have Congress and the President.

The good thing is when Dems do stuff, people are so appalled they lose power the next election cycle.

Ur wrong here, the politician in this case is doing what said he would

I would hope that you are even more concerned about HR1 and the loss of the filibuster. Clearly they are going to impose totalitarian governance on us.

There is only one way to deal with this and it isn't voting. That is no longer a possibility after the 2020 fiasco that HR 1 will make permanent.

Yep, a person would have to have their head up their _ _ _ to not see what's going on. "They" are trying a complete takeover of our govt.

Let’s stand United and get it done. Fight like heck. If we don’t. We will loose our second amendment. Thank you James.

I'm still not 100% that James even voted for Biden. If I remember correctly he said he hadn't voted for a democrat for president since the 80s. Probably voted 3rd party. But if he did and is admitting his mistake I'll give him respect for that. I didn't particularly like Trump but I knew he was our best bet for saving this country

James you say to some they try to hold back "change" which is inevitable. Just what "change" do you see as inevitable?

I am surprised you didn't/couldn't see what Biden was wanting to do. His entire career he has been after guns. I don't or won't belittle you but I do have to say, you need to step back and look at the forest not just a few trees.

For the record, I have never thought you were a true Democrat. I don't know who you voted for, as you say, that is your business. I respect that.

Doubt he did also, but that's not the problem with him.

It was the last 5 years of his trolling that turned everyone on him and a couple others. Some are gone but the ones that didn't get a vacation are Still fresh in peoples minds.

Some fail to read between the lines here as always.

You're old and retired. Enjoy your retirement. Let the kids figure this out. It's their future, not yours.

Exactly.

He won't answer that ?
Anybody with a pulse against TRUMP.
Bless his heart...

I'd feel pretty good betting money the R's won't let Trump run again. They know that if they do that, they're pretty much going to be electing the D candidate by default. If they put anyone decent on the ticket they should be in like flynn.

James, we all make choices and live with them for better or worse. Just keep on keeping on!

Happy trapping! ScottW

They should copy the dems playbook-run Kasich as a figurehead to garner the votes and have Trump set policy from the basement.

I will vote for Kasich when Kamala decides to become celibate and joins a convent.
