I've been saying that for months, he seems to be a pretty straight shooter so let's hope he keeps the Senate in check.

Because he is a Moderate--someone who is not an extremist, right or left; which is what people we elect to high office should be. |

A moderate today might be extremists in a few years... and that's without changing their views! The Overton Window has been consistently shifting towards the left for quite a while now. The extreme left from one decade ago (or less) is now considered a moderate democrat. What might be considered extreme right today was a moderate only a few years ago. Here's an example, when Obama was first elected President he believed that marriage was between a man and a woman (or at least that was his public stance). Now that same viewpoint is considered to be an extreme right position. Heck, you're almost laughed out of the republican party for saying that now days and you definitely can't even suggest that in the democrat party. We've shifted so far to the left so fast the past decade that now even some republicans are standing behind hormone suppression drugs for kids who aren't old enough to make a decision on what's for breakfast but yet they can decide to change their gender! That's truly twisted. Jake Morgan Owner, PULLOFF.COM Independent Pulling News This page is a free service. The cost is covered out of my pocket. It takes a great deal of time and a fair amount of money to keep this website going. Donations for: photos, classified ads, forum discussion, etc... are appreciated. Side Note: We are no longer accepting PayPal donations. They have changed their terms of service and stated they would fine PayPal users for spreading "misinformation" and "hate, violence, racial or other forms of intolerance that is discriminatory". PayPal did not provide definitions for some of these vague terms. Woke corporate policies regarding "misinformation" could result in an automatic fine of $2,500 which would have been removed directly from the customer’s PayPal account. PayPal did backdown from some of their policies but quietly implemented portions of them in later terms of service. A financial institute has no right to monitor social media accounts or speech. This is unacceptable and I'll no longer do business with PayPal. |
