    agree, so not sure why this is a big deal to some on the right

    They are certainly not on a roll, are they? But I suppose it's hard to know where to go after supporting an attempted insurrection against your own country...

    A larger question is why we feel compelled to even respond to this nonsense... ??

    Personally, I think Biden has done a great job in the past week.... The right has opened about 25 threads on various actions he has taken, and while I've wanted to make a post to each of them simply saying 'Good', I've managed to hold off...

    There's only been one thing he's done that I disagree with, which is a pretty good pct... I'm not a fan of allowing biological boys in girls sports... I have zero problem with changing gender if that's your goal, but I coach girls basketball (7th/8th graders) and I see boys the same age playing in their division and I wouldn't like that scenario...

    Other than that, I'm Ridin' with Biden all the way

    Considering the Al Gore said he was his favorite president, and I have cousins in Oklahoma because of the DEMOCRAT, it's about time.

    Please backup your assertion that she’s a hero? She’s just 1 congresswoman.

    Preserving the Union was conservative, seceding was liberal treason.

    Does anyone else find it comical that the OP blames the media for Tubman going on the 20 dollar bill? LOL

    the SC is already 6 - 3 favoring republicans, republicans have packed the courts - so not sure what you're talking about

    what new States, I have not heard dems planning to add two new States to the USA

    or do you mean the voters flipped a couple red States blue, and you think they may get a couple more States in 2022?

    I bet you believe that the parties swapped ideologies, right?

    Conservatives are progressive enough to know that slavery was wrong even when rich southern democrats fought a war to keep people enslaved.

    Current day progressives are such to try to fix the errors of their history.

    Talk about making DC and PR states... it's certainly time for DC, while I'm neutral for PR...

    Next up: North Carolina.... Good chance at a D Senator in 2022 and going blue in 2024...

    I prefer to use cash as much as possible. Too often one's purchases, while using electronic money, their info is sold to marketing companies and then the spam of email and phone calls just annoys the heck out of me.

    The DP has always been the party of institutional systemic racism and slavery in America. The RP, since the end of the Civil War, has been remarkably indifferent to systemic racist policies and programs used to destroy the black-American community and culture.

    "These Northern Democrats [see: Joe Biden] are in cahoots with the Southern Democrats. They’re playing a giant con game, a political con game. You know how it goes. One of them — One of them comes to you and makes believe he’s for you, and he’s in cahoots with the other one that’s not for you. Why? Because neither one of them is for you, but they got to make you go with one of them or the other. So this is a con game. And this is what they’ve been doing with you and me all these years."

    Nice to you see you embracing the Biden admin and support cancelling slave owners. Couldn’t agree more.

    Holy f***, people really do believe this. God help our nation. We've become stupid, gullible, and imminently controllable.

    A durable ten dollar coin with trace gold and silver would be a better tribute for many reasons.

    only one trying to steal the election was Trump and Republicans, Biden won fair and square

    Trump tried to slow down the mail, tried to have ga change the votes, tried to fire people in the DOJ to get them to overturn the election, tried to get Pence to steal it for him, then his insurrection attempt at the capital, Trump tried everything to steal the election

    yet even today southern conservatives waving the Confederate flag, defending Confederate statues and worried about the browning of America

    only difference today is these southern conservatives switched parties, dems were too liberal for them - you can keep them, we don't want them
