    Something so absurd is easy to remember and to find. In the thread about those horrible nazi soccer moms you wrote:

     

     You’re doing this to attack gay folks. That’s always been the goal. 

     

    Maybe you meant free speech but accidentally typed “gay folks”.
     

    It’s good that you put it out of your mind. 

     


    Both things can be true. I’m so glad you remember everything I post, dork

    When you cut the red tape, Things happen a lot faster. The contractor  called a place in in in Arizona to start constructing the beams . They had a police escort from AZ and CA state troopers all the way to the site. They had welders standing by to start immediately 24/7.As soon as the welds were inspected the concrete was poured. As soon as itched,they inspected it. The contractor bid under a million with  big  bonuses for every day they beat the deadline. It came in for under half what it would have cost if it was dime the normal slow way.

    The same contractor built the S-curve approach on the Treasure Island approach  for the new Bay Bridgege in SF Bay. A several hundred  foot section had to repalce  temporarily  where the road went from  double decks to side by side.  They built the section on 150-200 ft high stilts, close the road on Labor  Day weekend, destroy that section and place the new section in . It was scheduled from Friday at 7- Tuesday  morning. They moved the new piece over and in place. It opened up Labor Day morning a day ahead of schedule. Look both up on the internet.

     


    This isn’t a finance issue then, it’s a permitting problem, which I wholeheartedly agree with you with.

    We could clear the bridge in weeks IF

     

    1) our federal maritime agencies @DOTMARAD & @USCG were fully funded and functional

    2) we had heavylift, salvage and offshore construction ships on hand. We don’t The Navy sold off almost its entire fleet of salvage ships. We don’t     even have a single fireboat in the Navy’s most important port.

    3) The Navy hadn’t outsourced the majority of its salvage operations to a European company Sailing assets from Europe would take weeks and       would anger certain powerful lobbyists

    4) The Army didn’t sell off the majority of it’s watercraft fleet and deprioritize the Corps of Engineers maritime missions

    5) If our DOT Ready Reserve fleet was fully functional and not a half a century old

    6) if the balance sheets of our US shipping companies, tugboat operators, construction companies encouraged growth

    7) if silicon valley investors didn’t have a revulsion to investing in maritime startups with revolutionary new ideas

    😎 if the media understood ships and focused on the right stories and pushed DC in the right directions

    9) if environmental regulations were not onerous

    10) local port politics

     

     

     

     

     

    There are seven or eight heavy salvage ships on site right now. What is this guy talking about?

    I was just playing there game. I do think with all the money spent on other countries infrastructure and so little money spent on ours. That is bidens fault. That is absolutely true.

     

    The Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill is the largest investment of capital in our infrastructure in decades but whatever you say.

    What did I say that is in opposition to that?

     

    As someone who dislikes Trump, I’m stating that our only recourse is to vote for a very flawed candidate because the other side hates us .. and furthermore, will not leave us alone.  It’s a constant antagonistic nature from them.

     

    I was someone who participated in Pride and supported LGBTQ groups 10 years ago.  I rejected the idea that it was a slippery slope.  I was wrong .. it’s relentless and it’s the new religion. 

     

    You did when you said that declaring transgender day of visibility means that Biden somehow hates all Christians and is "demonic." 

     

    Same old song and dance we've heard for years. I remember when Obama was going to make it illegal to be a Christian.

    I’m pretty sure both candidates are trying as hard as they can to lose the election.  There is no other explanation for the things these two people do.

     

    As for Biden, he knows what he’s doing declaring this on the same day Easter falls this year.  It’s clearly a message .. and one every Christian should rebuke.  
     

    He already banned religious symbols and themes at the Easter egg hunt. 
     

    If you have any semblance of Christian values or even moderate/conservative values, the people running this country hate you.   They will not leave you, and what you hold sacred, alone.   They will continue this constant affront until you relent and give up. 
     

    So vote this demonic regime out.  I’ve been hesitant to use that term, but that’s what we’re dealing with.  Enough evidence is out there.  These people hate Christianity and everything it stands for.

    Only the ones that do violent crimes. All the other colors of people that do violent crimes bother me too. 
     

    Solid argument you’ve got going. Sadly, it’s with yourself as any breathing being can see what a load of crap it is. 


    It’s patiently obvious that the right is simply tapping into its roots

    I think pure speed guys mostly struggle in the NFL because all they’ve relied on their entire career is speed. They don’t have savvy moves to get open, they’re not QB friendly with understanding of coverages, they don’t always have the best hands. Worthy has had legit production at a major collegiate conference, he’s not a one year wonder like John Ross. Given the league isn’t as physical as it once was, he should be okay. Devonta Smith is similar in size and has been highly productive. 


    DeSean Jackson made a good career out of being a burner. I think Henry Ruggs would have been a stud if he wasn’t a complete psychopath
