We were real close at one time, but I haven't talked to her or seen her in six or seven years.

Hell, a little less than half of the Democratic party identifies as Progressive. That won't win shit! This is a most important election and is no time for the Dems to get tribal.

This country is very centrist, and it is very important the Dems realize this. We have had two Democrat Presidents since Carter, and both tacked toward the middle. A democracy will only work with compromise. We have watched democracy failing in this country for almost three decades as the republicans refuse to compromise on anything including money for infrastructure and health care, both of which they know we desperately need.

I have done it twice. The first time her new boyfriend did not like the fact we were friends even though we had not been together in four years. That was in the 80's and we haven't spoken since. The friendship in the second case is an ongoing friendship. She is the best female friendship I have ever had. Some of it may depend on how much of a friendship you really had when you were together and how it ended. It is definitely rare I would think.

Christians Flipped Out After a WV Mayor Changed the Name of a “Christmas” Parade | Hemant Mehta ...

Sticks48 comments on Nov 30, 2019:

Christians are a very easily threatened when it comes to their beliefs, because their beliefs are very fragile. Christians really only celebrate or honor Jesus at Christmas and Easter, his birth and his death. They pretty much ignore what he said and what he did in between those two events. Except for Catholics, they spend the rest of the year expounding the Old Testament, a Jewish book. They are a fucked up bunch for sure.
