Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

| General BS forum I guess anything is fair game in here. Just watch the subject matter doesn't get carried away too much. |

Political involvement thread:
Here's 2 links to help get involved and active. Given the current actions of our government, I would venture to say that they are no longer representative of We The People. We need to remind them that it is our money they're squandering. It's our rights they are trampling. It's our votes that will remove them....ALL OF THEM!!! Republican and Democrats alike.....either govern based upon the Constitution, or suffer the wrath of the American voter.

Feel free to link any other grass roots movements here...let's get involved!

By "current", I am assuming you are meaning the last several decades? Just asking.

Are you sure? Do "they" ever ignore the actual votes, then just put into office who ever "they" want? Again, just asking.
I know. My cynicism has reached a depth of epic proportions.

My guess Sammy is that they do look at actual votes (except for the president) its just that people don't vote. Every single election we hear "vote them out" and every single year we vote them back in.
Its either that or the guys we vote in are the same as the guys we vote out. This may be more the case than we care to admit.

Yessir! That's what I meant. While the past 2 presidents have really...I mean REALLY trampled over the Constitution, it is Congress where we can make the most difference. Some of these guys have been in there for decades, and have gotten further and further from the what our founders envisioned.

"They" can only skew the vote so far....I still have a glimmer of hope for our future.
