  1. Just have to know where to go. I'm always amazed how many sleds are in the parking lots and yet hardly meet anyone in the back country.
  2. I'm sure the shuttle is stripped down however this still blows me away.
  3. You don't have the right to assault someone just because they are stealing from you. When the homeowners confronted the thief if he came at them then "Merrill swing away." Different story if the thief is in the home or you are trying to apprehend them and they assault you as well. Extra credit for whomever gets the movie reference.
  4. I guess the same could be said of what liberals say as well? Conservatives don't care about the poor, are sexist, are racist are homophobic......shall I go on? With educators and especially federal workers I don't think its even debatable the massive political leanings. Human nature is human nature.....people will let their beliefs political or whatever bleed off into everyday life. Its much more acceptable for teachers to do that today than 30 years ago. You might actually be the only one on here who doesn't see a liberal bias in education.
  5. Maybe. Bern has really went off the deep end on some of his wealth taxes and NHC plans. No country covers the stuff Bernie wants covered like dental and nursing home care. His program would be off the charts compared to what other countries offer. Not sure that will sell.
  6. Let's see how feel the Bern spins this one. He can call her a liar or call a huge part of the county sexist pigs. Maybe he should ask Hillary how calling that many people deplorables worked. Not great choices.
  7. Well then here are Bernie's chances. Honestly I think only Joe has a remote chance at beating Trump at this point.
  8. 1. Textbooks are only a small part of education. 2. Because people thankfully take into account their own life experiences when making political choices. This takes some time as youth is far more left leaning group. Also good parents sill have influence on their kids. 3. Its gotten much worse over time and come on.....who voted for Dukakis? To a 5th grader his funny name probably made more of an impact than knowing anything politically.
  9. Like every single person in those "red states" voted for republicans. Common Liberal/Democrap professions. Teachers/Educators, Lawyers, Public workers, especially federal. http://verdantlabs.com/politics_of_professions/
  10. I had a little diet pepsi come thru my nose when I read that.
  11. And neither is our media system. Come on dude educators identify as democrat at like an 90%+ rate. And please don't tell me this doesn't leak into how they teach. Between myself, my wife and my two kids not one of us has had what we would call an outwardly conservative or even libertarian teacher/professor. Just because a specific area is red on election night means absolutely zero when it comes to political views of certain jobs. https://www.pacificresearch.org/why-are-teachers-mostly-liberal/ Among English teachers, there are 97 Democrats for every three Republicans, with the proportion being even more one-sided among health teachers, with 99 Democrats for every one Republican. While there are slightly more Republicans among math and science teachers, among high school teachers overall, there are 87 Democrats for every 13 Republicans.
  12. I would have definitely owned one and probably would still have it.
  13. Think the reveal was in West. Plenty of good area's there. People should avoid Tog.....it sucks there. No good riding at all.
  14. Something telling me someone pulling in $100K has a very good HC coverage from their employer.
