Love the brothers, but this is not what leads to leadership positions. Presidents don't

come from anything less than the Governors and Senators in their states; or from the US Senate on occasion. And a position as head of HUD gets no notice from the media, unless there's a scandal found or conflated.



I don't want to see him leave his leadership role in Texas to be buried in an agency. Sorry, but this is not good enough.

I want him running for POTUS in a decade and this won't give him the kind of name recognition needed. It's possible that Julian has decided it's the road he wants to take, and if so, he'll be great at this, like anything else.

Just sayin'

Hilarious video! WIPE OUT! My version of today's EPIC FAIL:

Bad weather? Didn't stop the Patriots glorified in this picture, which I'm sure they use:



It doesn't stop the United States Postal Service, but then they are actually doing a job and not busy being exhibitionists. Just more Bundy types waving their manhood around trying desperately to be relevant. But the sun didn't shine on schedule so they scream, 'False flag, it wasn't us!'

Although I didn't hear the laughter in the video - but the moment I saw the words 'WIPE OUT' that's all I can hear from the full version I remembered. Thanks for the laugh!

There was an LBN thread citing the BBC on this. From that link, this photo:



Looks like every country has decided to have their own version of the Bundies. No matter how they dress it up, the behavior is the same.

That's my take, too. I'm sure this party doesn't suit some here:



And I agree about some wanting to say hateful things to Obama, but really, most people are not on his level. So they take it out on others here, and expect us all to bow down, or something.



To me, this is beautiful. If they want to throw us under the bus, there may be so many of us that we'll tip their bus over when we stand up.

Just sayin'

Kudos to these guys for doing this project!!!

Off to the Greatest Page!!
