Meanwhile Private Bonespurs WAS NEVER IN THE MILITARY. Vance's service was as an Administrator/Journalist. Neither has ever participated in combat.
Let's just ignore that log in the eye while going after the splinter in the other?
The fact that JD Vance is attacking the honorable military service of his opponent, same as Trump went after John McCain's service, without any pushback from Republicans who claim to love and honor veterans, tells you everything you need to know about Republicans' lack of character. Vote accordingly. ~Jim Wright
This should be the last time you quote or reference Jim Wright. This is as wrong as he has ever been on a subject.

Reminds me of the possibly apocryphal story an American friend told me about Lyndon Johnson running for governor of Texas against a person who owned a pig farm. Supposedly LBJ wanted his staff to circulate a rumor that the farmer was having carnal relations with his swine. A staff person said, "We can't do that! No one would believe it!"
LBJ replied, "I know. But let's make him deny it."
Like ânot a US citizenâ or âdrinks the blood of babies.â
I've been waiting for this one. Someone posted it when it was fresh and took it down and the one or two commented on it believing it also deleted their posts as well. I looked this up yesterday to rebut the now deleted post.

LBJ was a political genius. The last of the real good ole boys. He was fearless and knew how to win and get what he wanted. He knew where everyone had bodies buried and could leverage just about anyone to do his bidding. He was also into broadcasting and knew how marketing works. The Texas radio station KLBJ was his flagship in the day. LBJ was also famous for picking up his prized beagles by the ears. I think he did it just to offend people. He didn't care about the dogs. Expendable props. A real mean SOB.
How he got Goldwater out of the picture in 64 was marketing genius. There is a famous add showing a little girl holding a flower in a bright sunny field that cuts straight to a mushroom cloud. That pretty much ended Goldwater right then and there. He could not recover. It is probably around youtube somewhere.
ymmv as this is all from memory of just being there when all of this stuff happened.

The name change ? Really ? (can't get past the paywalls) You are definitely a low information voter subject to still trusting those people who have been caught lying to you.
He was adopted by his new stepfather, Robert Hamel, and his mother renamed him James David Hamel.
When his mother erased Donald Bowman from his and her lives, the adoption process also erased the name James Donald Bowman from the public record.
Middleton, Ohio has suburbs ? ROFLMAO It has a population of 50,000
The median income for a household in the city was $36,215, and the median income for a family was $43,867. Males had a median income of $35,705 versus $23,865 for females. The per capita income for the city was $19,773

Harris continually refers to Trump as a criminal in her speeches, but her campaign has taken the approach of referring to him and J.D. Vance as weirdos.
On Tuesday, Minnesota governor Tim Walz said, âThese guys are just weird.â Senators Chris Murphy of Connecticut and Brian Schatz of Hawaii recorded a video together about Vanceâs âsuper weird,â âbananas,â and âoffensiveâ idea that people with children should be assigned additional votes for each child, making their wishes count more than people without children.
As J.D. Vance continues to step on rakes, the âweirdâ label seems correctly to label the MAGAs as outside the mainstream of American thought. Today, Vance doubled down on his denigration of women who have not given birth as âchildless cat ladiesâ but assured voters he has nothing against cats.
In addition, a video surfaced of Vance calling for the federal government to stop women in Republican-dominated states from crossing state lines to obtain abortions.
Mychael Schnell of The Hill reported today that while MAGA Republican lawmakers like Vance, a number of House Republicans are bashing his selection as the vice presidential candidate. âHe was the worst choice of all the options,â one said. âIt was so bad I didnât even think it was possible.â âThe prevailing sentiment is if Trump loses, because of this pick,â another said, a sentiment that suggests Vance will be a scapegoat if Trump loses. Considering what happened to Trumpâs last vice president after Trump blamed him for an election loss, Vance might have reason to be concerned.

I saw a piece stating that Paul Begala, one of Bill Clinton's top strategists, thought that Trump would dump Vance in favor of Nikki Haley.
I don't know if party rules allow for that switch but it wouldn't look good at all for Trump. It has the stench of desperation. As for Nikki, I think she wouldn't bring in any new supporters to Trump. Joining Trump would kill any political possibilities for her after the VP candidacy/gig.
No shortage of synchopants in the party. But she could just join the stream of ex-toadies who have been distancing themselves from the shit they pulled for him, like Barr,
