You are right,the town its self is small but a nice little town with friendly folks.I have lived in this area all 54 years except for six I spent in the service.I live up the side of the red rock mountain out side town with my wife,my guns and a 4 wheel drive.Also the dog and a few bears in the woods.
Be quiet!!!!!!!
If that leaks out you must turn in your Dick Cheney secret decoder ring.
Alert Quannelle X!
A fundraising opportunity no doubt.
I’ve heard the AIDS story too; invented in a top secret Maryland lab to kill blacks and homosexuals. Also heard that after slavery is brought back, those blacks not strong enough to work would be taken to concentration camps and killed.
Along with Rove and Bush causing nine-eleven, these stories are widely believed among the poor and ill-educated.
We are genuinely faced with a large population of uneducated and semi-civilized (but quite well fed) Americans.
Add to that the growing legions of un-assimilated illegals -- no wonder ignorance is the new hip!
It makes for a stronger nation knowing that illiterates (of all races and genders) are allowed to vote.
Judging by the low voter turnout of blacks at the polls...wonder why they are even concerned w voting rights.
WHAT is wrong with literacy tests? Hurts the DemocRATS voter turnout too much? After all, don’t you have to pass special tests, to carry a concealed weapon? What about the 2nd Amendment?
Hey Popman,
Sheeeeiiiiittttttt!!!!! Bush framed O.J. (satire)

Congresswoman Maxine Waters went on a tirade many years ago that crack cocaine was introduced by the CIA into inner cities to destroy the black community.
Great idea... that would shut out most of the liberally educated high school and college students under 35...
Since AIDS is a behaviorally spread disease, this is a comment of the left's own perception of the behavior of blacks.
That's only half of it. The other is that the advice to use condoms is part of a genocidal plot to wipe out minorities. (By preventing them from reproducing.)
IIRC, it was the CDC that did a study about a decade or so ago about all this. It found that this wasn't a phenomenon that could be blamed on lack of education; something like a third of well-educated blacks believed this stuff.
Didn't Reagan secretly fund that project?
After all he personally caused AIDS to spread across the globe!
(rolling eyes)
I hate to tell you this, but the Voting Rights Act contains a ban on all literacy tests, as well as a requirement that states provide bilingual ballots.
“Anybody have a list of the counties presently doing this? Anybody? Anybody?”
A few Democrat districts in Ohio if I recall correctly. Then they blamed the Republicans. That is why Wolfie wouldn’t call Ohio for Bush even after he was up 100,000 votes and Republican districts didn’t come in yet.
I think you could literally write a book filled with nothing but Maxine Waters gems. My all-time favorite :
“I have to march because my mother could not have an abortion.” — Maxine Waters, speaking at an abortion rights rally.
Hayna is a NEPA (Scranton) expression that means “isn’t it” or ‘ain’t it”, to signify agreement at the end of a sentence. Sometimes it’s said “hayna or no”
HRC is descended from Scrantonians; Hugh Rodham is buried there.
