No one needs to read a text that bad, and put other people at risk!

Yes, for obvious reasons, but good luck with that. People are generally distracted by their phones even when not driving. It has become a lifestyle, along with not taking responsibility.

You can't play a good round of golf with distracted driving.

The referees are determining the winners. The NFL has become a giant money laundering system. There is nothing there for me anymore, but I have a lot more time with my lovely wife, and our friends.

The Chief's biggest mistake was signing Taylor Swift. That's when it all went South, and now the team is moving West.

Not since the Great Depression has wealth inequality in the US been so acute, Top 0.1% now worth as much as the bottom 90%. Prior to Reagan and trickle-down economics in the mid-80's, the bottom 90% held over 35% and the top 0.1% about 10%. And yet, the wealthiest among us still want more!

It will always be that way, because most people make bad choices.

Forgot one important fact ... Reagan and trickle-down economics also put us on the path to huge budget deficits and financial ruin.

Nothing the Democrats have done of offered has ever helped the majority of the people. Obamacare caused my healthcare to skyrocket and quality to plummet. Democratic scandals, such as those seen in Minnesota with the Somalians, far too common. It's past time to support out President.

Prior to the Affordable Care Act, insurance companies routinely denied coverage for pre-existing conditions. How exactly does that reduce the quality of coverage?

Right ... other than the 19th Amendment, Social Security, GI Bill, Medicare, Medicaid, Securities and Exchange Act, Rural Electrification Act, unemployment benefits, Voting Rights Act, Head Start & student loans, Republicans? Tax cuts for corporations & the wealthy.

If the revenue isn't replaced (along with cuts) with a flat/consumption/fair tax, then it's a waste of time. When it comes to spending money, republicans can waste it as much as the democrats.

It would probably be replaced by higher regressive sales tax rates.
