I thought it was funny that he interpreted that to mean I was going to pay his membership fee in his name.  However I'd be happy to pay the fee for him "in his name" if he wants to stay on.  

After all, if he's that masochistic, who am I to deny him?  LOL!  

BTW, if someone else knows the steps involved in paying for someone else's membership, they're better than me, because I don't know how to do it.  

• If he wants to show me how to pay his membership fee, I'll do so, if he's too cheap.

And let me address your other nonsense, when You make the incorrect claim that I never criticize my side of the aisle.

That's an absurd statement because I've criticized the Repubs here plenty.

I destroyed Mitch McConnell one day and I got into it w/Russ who likes Mitch McConnell and I pointed out how MM has taken 10's of Billions of dollars for wasteful projects in his state.

I criticized Paul Ryan Immensely for lying to us and for his roles in the Bureaucracy in Wash. D.C.  

In fact his reneging on promises made by him is WHY I left the Republican party.  

So your BS rings hollow here.  

I criticized MM when he gave Billions of Dollars to Thad Cochran a  complete loser when he had a conservative Repub running against him, by the name of Chris McDaniel.

I essentially ripped him to shreds when he didn't denounce Haley Barbour for putting out ads that accused McDaniel of being a bigot.

I supported Dave Brat Against Eric Cantor, who was a useless rubber stamp for the Repubs and MM.   

So as usual, you are full of shit, when you make your accusations.  

When the hell have YOU ever gone against your party candidates?  Can you even name one?  I doubt it .  You're like the other Stepford Democrats on this forum. 
 
Have you ever had an original thought in your head? 

You get your marching orders from Pelosi and Schumer and the leftist media buffoons and you regurgitate them here daily.  

And as for your claim that I'm the biggest blowhard on here, at least I can back up my BS with facts.  And I take you fools on head on, I don't run and hide under my desk when the tough questions come my way as you do, and anytime the wind blows in the opposite direction.

I pretty much attempt to take on all comers.  What can you say?  I'll say it for you.  You're a lightweight Jim.  LOL!  

And BTW, How many times are you going to make the silly remark "Its your forum Rich"?  

It is everyone's forum.  I just don't cry and whine like you do.  Maybe you should educate yourself Jim and then you can come deal with the big boys, who occupy the right side of the political aisle.  

Greg doesn't whine.  Mel Doesn't whine.  I don't whine and say "oh its not fair that everyone is picking on me".  Just because you can't support your BS, don't complain about it like a child.  Grow a pair, suck it up, and put up the facts.  

Problem for you is that you don't have any.  That's not my fault.  

And let me address lastly your end statement which I put in bold.  

You say its only hyperbole here and no interesting conversation?  

Well then why don't you put up GOOD conversation, such as the economy, or the North Korea issue, or the Israeli situation?  All you put up is your ridiculous Trump bashing on a daily basis, along with accusations of Russian Collusion.  

I spoke up yesterday about the move by Trump to get the US out of the illegal Iran Deal put forth by Obama.

Where were you to interject in the conversation?  I guess I missed it.

You were probably busy though watching CNN and their 24/7 coverage of the Russian collusion so I'll give you a pass

Today Mike Pompeo is on his way back with 3 Americans who were held hostage in N Korea.  Trump admin. got them back home.

You could have started a conversation about that.  Why did you not?  

The onus is on you man to bring up "GOOD conversation".

Do it and I'll engage you.  I'll probably disagree with you, but I'll engage you.

When I saw the 3 categories you had mentioned. No disrespect but I was expecting different response and to be honest something else, maybe something more dependable or some assurance that it will make me feel more secure here on the site. The way you talk as if you defending every matter in stead of trying to help with the member's issues here. All I wanted to know is why is the reason that I can't get a back up "MESSAGES" by member's I am dealing with here on the main front page, and prof of everything both parties talk about so it can be more secure. I see that as a way of taking no responsibility nor trying to help. I was expecting for N#4). So I did not get an answer as to what is the main reason why, there is a member's fees here. What are we paying for here, is this some kind of donation when we paid for membership?  Would you please elaborate more of this matter? Thank you have a good day.   Joel

WELL NEED I SAY MORE.  Is that to make it look like it's getting more business here than it really is?
I likely won't renew next year - not cleaning house is ridiculous. 

Going back to cloudy nights.
