Sound Off for Nov. 10, 2023

Good thing?

One writer pointed out that Tate Reeves was governor for four years and things are still good in Mississippi so of course we reelected him. Similarly, Joe Biden was president during most of that time so we should reelect him too. Let’s keep a good thing going.

What I saw

The Republican presidential debate in Miami has proven one solid thing, every single candidate on the stage is more competent that Trump, Biden, Hillary or Kamala in leading America. Period.

Hollywood gatherings

These extravagant Hollywood events where women (and some men) wear excessively revealing outfits are really just plastic surgery promotions exploiting that person’s insecurities. It’s a shame these poor people have such a low self image, they’re willing to mutilate their bodies.

Just saying

If a photographer is uncomfortable taking pictures of a wedding or event or a baker is uncomfortable baking a cake for a wedding or event it’s OK with me. I wouldn’t want them at my wedding or event, anyway.

Pants on fire

With all the charges against Trump, arson should be added. He’s always setting his pants on fire.

Mutually exclusive?

Contrary to what many conservatives would have you think, belief in God and belief in the separation of church and state are not mutually exclusive.

Sound Off

The Sound Off claiming 63 liberal Sound Offs to six conservative Sound Offs in the past few weeks doesn’t comprehend a lot of those 63 “liberal” Sound Offs are actually conservative. They’re just left of the “it’s time” commenter.
