Subject: RE: MOAB - Mother of All BS [annex] From: Donuel Date: 20 Jan 23 - 02:33 PM ..Mom why is my sister such a smartie pants? Well dear, On the sixth day God put Adam into a coma and took his rib bone marrow out to fashion woman...already exhausted from all that creating he really needed a break and on the seventh day he rested. He never created again except for disasters and floods. Able asked God "could you clear up some of your mistakes like the platypus and other things like woman being smarter..." That was the last we ever heard from Able. When Eve hungrily ate from the tree of knowledge she became vastly smarter than Adam who never read or asked for directions. Mom said "Thats why girls are smarter than boys". Timmy said I never knew that. Mom said "Exactly" |

Subject: RE: MOAB - Mother of All BS [annex] From: Donuel Date: 02 Feb 23 - 04:47 PM The history of the United States of America has been discovered after centuries of cover-ups and leftist conspiracies to indoctrinate our citizens with fictitious facts, Finally, freedom, faith, and the American family will be taught in an unbiased format. We wish to thank our treasured historians Donald J. Trump, Jim Jordan, Marjorie Taylor Greene and hundreds of contributors from the Heritage Foundation for their research. [This is the official and complete history of the USA by the Republican National Committee and not the abridged alternative social truth targets of our respected and esteemed colleagues like The Proud Boys and QAnon.] In 1492 Columbo sailed the Ocean blue with his destination set on an alternative route to India. To his surprise, he arrived in Haiti where he fought off Small Pox and the savages. By the time this news reached England, some very pure people from Plymouth believed their promised land for religious freedom would be found in the new world. They moved with Mayflower to move to America. To their delight, they arrived at Plymouth rock. The pure people aka Puritans invited some natives to their housewarming party that today we call Thanksgiving, The fathers of America were born soon after the Renaissance which in Latin means Born Again Christians, not to be confused with toxic wokeness. Americans wanted freedom from the King of Britain. Likewise the King of France faced headaches to come from Antifa rebels in his own country. Philosophers of the day like Rousseau wrote "Man is free but is everywhere in chains". He dreamt of a world where man was master of his own destiny and government. It was the same dream that was tempting European immigrants to come to America in droves and boats. It turns out that building a new world was back-breaking work, so they invited people from Africa and made them do the work instead. You might think these were the same people Rousseau was talking about when he said mankind should throw off its chains but they weren't. Like many humanists, he found a clever loophole by calling blacks only 3/5ths human, or only human from the neck down. When Britain tried to tax America, the citizens cleverly dressed up like Indians and turned Boston Harbor into the biggest cup of tea in the world. Then George Washington crossed the Delaware and defeated the British. in 1776 the founding fathers drafted the best dear John letter in history and established their independence. A list of suggestions was later called the Constitution. United we stood until the Civil War when the North ruthlessly attacked the South. After we invented the light bulb, radio and sliced bread, a negotiated settlement was made and American capitalism and inventions spread planes, trains and automobiles across the country. We also put and end to WW1 and WW2 rebuilt Europe, opened China and chased Russia out of Cuba. Republicans have brought prosperity to America with only a couple of exceptions. They put an end to the Lifetime Presidency of FDR and some say they put a man on the moon. If it had not been for rigged elections the great President in history would still be in power. fact-checked by Wikipedia . |

Subject: RE: MOAB - Mother of All BS [annex] From: Donuel Date: 03 Feb 23 - 09:37 PM Don't be silly, China can't see its balloon.

They will be shocked to see our bases in Canada and a radio telescope 4 times bigger than theirs but its all CGI. The best part is a message file that appears deleted but is recoverable. It will show a planned coup against Mr Chow ching Big and lead to a purge of the least friendly intelligence officers in China. Meanwhile, the balloon appears to be on its merry way tomorrow. |

Subject: RE: MOAB - Mother of All BS [annex] From: Donuel Date: 16 Feb 23 - 09:14 AM The greatest trainwreck in Human History has happened in America. A two mile long train carrying ;Vinyl chloride: A highly flammable colorless gas used when making plastic is a known carcinogenic. Once it is made into PVC pipe it is no longer toxic or deadly. • Butyl acrylate: A flammable clear liquid used in making paints can cause irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory system. • Ethylhexyl acrylate: A colorless liquid used in making paints and plastics can produce hazardous vapors under heat. • Ethylene glycol monobutyl: A highly flammable colorless liquid used in making solvent is deemed as acutely toxic. Additional materials that were involved in the fire included petrochemicals and semolina. How long they will persist is the main factor. I had a personal experience seeing a victim of vinyl chloride in Rochester NY 40 years ago. The only consciousness the grandmother had was of panic knowing something happened to her but could not escape. Her IQ seemed below 50. The exposure did come from a single rail car of the chemical behind her house. She was trapped in an eternal hell. As fish birds and animals are dying in mass numbers the people were told they could return home. Deliberate Burning this deadly chemical cocktail was a bad idea imo. |

Subject: RE: MOAB - Mother of All BS [annex] From: Stilly River Sage Date: 17 Feb 23 - 11:28 AM Odd shopping news this week, suitable only for the MOAB thread: I went looking for a special kind of plastic plank called Attic Dek (manufacturer is "Metro" for most of it) and while poking around the big box hardware stores and Amazon, scrolled down through Google shopping results and found that, of all places, NewEgg was selling them for $88 for a pack of 4 when the closest price I was finding elsewhere was about $112 and up. Confirmed it was the same product and it had free shipping. Ordered. It was drop-shipped from Walmart! So the third party hardware store selling through NewEgg bought them at Walmart and shipped? But when I look at Walmart online they're something like $134 for four. I don't know how they managed that magic trick, but this time it seems to have worked in my favor. That is all. I found a Reddit conversation that discussed how it happens, but it usually doesn't work in your favor. http://bit.ly/3S7xA6O |
Subject: RE: MOAB - Mother of All BS [annex] From: Donuel Date: 20 Feb 23 - 08:02 AM I was able to carpet a large room for only $88 from walmart.com and avoided Amazon completely. Newegg does have some deals. |

Subject: RE: MOAB - Mother of All BS [annex] From: Donuel Date: 22 Feb 23 - 12:03 PM The lost letters and editorials of America's Sherriff Andy Griffith; [If he had lived longer he could have beaten Trump] 2006 If you consider where all the violence is occurring, where racial hate and race riots take place, it is overwhelmingly in blue cities ruled by Democrats, in many cases having been so ruled for decades. Los Angeles and Chicago are prime examples. And in all of these cases, the mayhem extends to the suburbs, as we are currently seeing in Brooklyn Center, a suburb of Minneapolis. Venture out into rural America or further out into the suburbs from the cities, as Nolte says, and America is overwhelmingly a safe, peaceful, clean and racially tolerant country. Yet if you watch CNN, or read rags like the New York Times¸ the Washington Post¸ and any number of left-wing media sources, they blame Republicans for their issues. ------------------------------------------------------------ 2007 Liberals blame Republicans for the violence and racism that overwhelmingly affects only their communities, ignoring the fact that despite the fact the overwhelming majority of legally owned firearms are in the suburbs and rural areas of the country, violence in those communities is rare. They claim that Republicans are racists, but it is they who use politically advantageous initiatives such as vote ID to make the claim in essence that blacks and other minorities are either too stupid or ignorant to be able to obtain proper identification in order to vote. They take them for granted because they can, because they know that blacks will vote Democrat in the 90th percentile, no matter the fact Democrats have done nothing to improve their lives in 50 years. ------------------------------------------------------------- 2007 Democrats claim they want to live in some type of Utopia, free of gun violence, pollution, and racism. They believe that by implementing their vision of Utopia that magically the gun violence, pollution and racism will disappear. Yet it is they who create it. [As Griffith opines, there is such a Utopia already in existence, a place he calls Rural MAGA Land. He says that in rural America, “the environment is clean, no one worries about getting shot, and there are no racial tensions.” He then goes on to cite a personal example. Griffith lives in rural North Carolina, married to Mexican immigrant. He says nobody…nobody has ever had an issue with his interracial marriage. He lives next door to a mixed race family…black and white. Again, they never had a problem. His other neighbor is a couple with mixed-race grandchildren. Black, white and brown…again he says "no problem."] ------------------------------------------------------------------ [This of course causes Griffith to pose a simple question. “If Rural America is where all the racists are supposed to live, where’s all the racism in Rural America?”Andy said in the county he lives in, everyone he knows owns guns, in some cases more than one, yet he says he cannot remember the last time there was a shooting in his county, where he says “shoplifting still makes the front page.”] ------------------------------------------------------- 2007 In my area of rural North Carolina, the Department of Justice reported that for the entire year there were a total of 20 hate crime allegations in 13 rural counties, with a population of around 668,000. That translated to 2.9 hate crime allegations per 100,000 Now visit progressive, left-wing lala land cities and see how they compare. Portland, OR- 5.75 reported hate crime incidents per 100,000 population Boulder, CO- 7.9 incidents per 100,000 San Francisco, CA- 7.2 incidents per 100,000 Alexandria, VA- 3.1 incidents per 100,000 Arlington, VA- 4.7 incidents per 100,000 Seattle, WA- 40…that’s right 40 per 100,000 Washington, DC- 29…not a typo, 29 per 100,000 How about the epitome of liberalism, Berkeley, CA? 6.5 per 100,000. So what do these numbers tell us? Basically that people who are looking to avoid being victimized by hate crime are much better of in Rural MAGA Land than in crap hole cities run by Democrats. But, you might say…there aren’t as many minorities living out in rural America. Once again, that doesn’t matter and Andy Griffith explains why. Comment by Charles Koch. Jan, 2008 If minorities are vastly outnumbered in rural America, and if the hayseed right wingers are so racist, why then doesn’t that translate to more hate crimes per capita than in the cities. Remember, this is per capita, not total numbers. For example, and this is important given what is going on in our country with crime, which has been on the increase over the past year or so. In rural America, the Asian population is under one percent. Despite the fact the mainstream media is trying to pin crime on “right wing extremists,” there is no Asian hate-crime crisis in the suburbs or rural areas of the country. They are occurring overwhelmingly in cities run by Democrats—New York, San Francisco and Los Angeles come to mind. Let’s circle over to gun violence. Mayberry's TV Sherriff says that an overwhelming number of people in rural areas own guns, yet the gun violence in rural areas compared to in the cities pales in comparison on a per capita basis. And what of gun control? Cities such as Chicago, Washington, DC and New York have the toughest gun laws in the country. Yet where is all the gun violence? Not in rural America but in Democratic run cities. And what about those mayors? Chicago hasn’t had a Republican mayor since 1931. Philadelphia last Republican mayor 1952. Baltimore, Democrats since 1967…St. Louis Democrats since 1949…Washington, DC…NEVER had a Republican mayor. You get the point. Every single one of America’s most violent cities has been run exclusively by Democrats for decades. Here is a list of the 10 most dangerous cities in America from 2011…all run by Democrats. Detroit- 1,965 per 100,000 St. Louis- 1,927 per 100,000 Memphis- 1,901 per 100,000 Baltimore- 1,859 per 100,000 Springfield- 1,519 per 100,000 Little Rock- 1,517 per 100,000 Cleveland- 1,517 per 100,000 Stockton (CA)- 1,397 per 100,00 Albuquerque- 1,352 per 100,00 Milwaukee- 1,332 per 100,000 Rural America? In North Carolina per capita: Lenoir- 436 per 100,000 Wilkesboro- 434 per 100,000 Hickory- 410 per 100,000 Rural America has drug problems like much of the country, helped in part by Obama's loose open-border policy where Fentanyl is coming into the country at a record pace. The difference between the drug problem in cities and the suburbs and rural areas? The latter doesn’t have the murder, gangs, gun violence, carjacking and related crimes to go along with it. Poverty in the rural areas tends to be higher than in the cities. Despite that, once again there isn’t the murder, gang violence, gun violence, etc. No riots…no looting. What of the environment? Remember, Bush voters are anti-environment, right? They don’t abide by the religion of global warming or as it’s called now, climate change. ----------------------------------------------------------- 2012 Where would you rather live? Where the trees and grass are green, where rivers and streams are clean, there isn’t garbage strewn on the streets, homeless aren’t defecating on the sidewalks. Who is anti-environment again? So what is the Democrats solution? To clean up their cities? Hell no. They want to take city problems and bring them to the suburbs and rural America. Why do you think the Obama administration wants to federalize zoning rules? Why do you think inside Obama’s plan is a scheme to build millions of “affordable” housing units not in the cities but in the suburbs? They want to expand crap hole cities into rural America, to turn the entire country into giant cesspools like Baltimore, Chicago, Portland, Seattle and San Francisco. Look at New York? In the few years since de Blasio has been mayor, that city has gone from a fairly safe, clean city to a crime infested swamp. He took 16 years of low-crime and community pride and flushed it in half that time. For those who live in Rural America, life is sweet, safe and clean. So blame conservatives and Democrat voters for the problems in what used to be beautiful, clean American cities. Then look in the mirror…that is where the blame belongs.
