It got so bad for the KGOP that faux broke away for what was supposed to be it's full coverage of the Q&A with Obama.

He made Pence look like the fool he is.

and I think we'd find most people here are color blind. The folks I know that voted for tRump are the most bigoted assholes

Republicans may have to start meeting in friendlier places such as Noblesville, Indiana; Pulaski, Tennessee; or Moscow . . . . Idaho.

Once had a foreign exchange student in town. She came from a well off
family in Europe. Turns out she couldn't handle "slumming it" in our town,
so she left. Later on, we all found out she had just transferred to finish
off her stay with some family in Carmel. Guess it was more to her liking.

but we briefly lived in fishers and in the geist ghetto area (ha ha).
that's weird about the foreign exchange student.
she must have met a classmate and decided their home was better than yours.
shame really. says more about her than you.

Moscow (home of the University of Idaho) is one of the few liberal spots in this state. Priest River would be more their style.
