Re: The WNBA’s Self-Flagellating Indifference to Caitlin Clark
“The WNBA is a waste of time and money. I am sorry Caitlin Clark believes she can play in a racist lesbian league. It is all so pointless. I find that my disdain for racist lesbian basketball only grows stronger, and the absolute depth and breadth of the stupidity of the league is mind-boggling. Is there no one in management who sees that this is killing the sport? I find it amazing!” —Ohio
“Well, when Caitlin decides it’s just not worth it anymore to play in the U.S., she will move to Europe or Asia to play basketball and make just as much money, if not more. The rest of the league here can then go back to waving their rainbow flags and flying coach again because the money Caitlin is bringing into the WNBA will dry up, and the league will return to where it was: obscurity.” —Illinois
“If a pride parade and a Carnival cruise had a baby, it’d be the WNBA. The only people that would watch this mess are probably WWE fans as well. I agree, Caitlin Clark is a massive upgrade to the WNBA talent pool, but it’s just not nearly enough. Hopefully she can make her money and get out before she loses all her teeth.” —Oklahoma
Re: Reflecting Pool Drama Is the Latest Episode of TDS
“These parasitic leftist morons, if found guilty in our criminal court system, should be required to pay for ALL damages to the pool. I’m tired beyond pale that responsible people are burdened by irresponsible individuals. If they want socialism, move to Europe, which wastes money on socialism and, when threatened, comes begging to the U.S. for military assistance, including covering the costs. Europe did not help with Iran, which posed a greater threat to the EU than the U.S. It’s time to draw down ALL military assets in Europe.” —Tennessee
“Once upon a time in America, citizens took pride in our culture, our values, and the beauty of this nation. Apparently, only those who are older, perhaps in their waning years, really care about our nation anymore. A nation that once came together and respected our brave military, our law enforcement, and our unique nation. A nation where families stayed together through thick and thin and children respected not just their parents but others. Where did that America go? Where did the government that seemed to care about America really go? Now it seems so many in government are there for the status and the money. How many have become millionaires during their tenure? Our Founders must be turning in their graves.” —Colorado
Re: Dems Hate the World That Loves America
“The message of hate is an embarrassment. What happened to the American spirit? Every American benefits from the success of another in this country. It is what makes us great and strong, and it is just plain wonderful to live in such an environment. We will survive their hate while they miss all the good things about America. Their loss is no one’s gain.” —Colorado
“In a nutshell, the Dems are a growing cadre of despicable, pathetic, miserable souls. Their constant display of anger and hate for our nation is just becoming too much for many of us to bear. But I guess when you hate yourself, it is easy to hate everything else.” —North Carolina
“God has blessed the United States of America with one of the most durable and resilient republican forms of government in history, notable especially for its protection of the rights He has given to every person. He has abundantly blessed us with riches and power that would astound Solomon. But, like the Israelites in the wilderness, who had their food provided from the hand of the Lord, some ‘loathe this worthless bread’ and complain constantly against the leaders God has provided. They want to replace Liberty with forced approval of their licentiousness, and even murder the children God has given them. Will He send fiery serpents among such ingrates? For our part, let us remember to thank God for 250 years of His favor to this nation .” —Minnesota
“I am a Patriot and proud to be an American no matter who is in the White House. However, these left-wing commies need to be silenced and shipped away if they don’t like it here.” —North Carolina
“Democrats, i.e. present-day socialists, believe they, as secular humanists, are smarter than God, but they have not proven they are yet. Every idea they have leads to problems, and every solution to a problem leads to more problems. It is not so much that they hate America, per se; they hate what they and their liberal ancestors have done to America.” —North Carolina
Re: The Soft Despotism of Comfortable People
“Governments know that if you give the people enough free stuff, they will relax and submit to being managed. It is a small step from freedom to entitlement, and from there to the resulting loss of purpose and freedom. It seems to start in the education system. Teach the freedom out of young people, and they never miss it when it is not even a memory. Pull up a chart that collates the introduction of our Department of Education and our social awareness decline.” —Washington
Re: The Fog of Peace
“The stated goal of the mullahs has not changed. They have learned to suppress their humanity and seek the death of Israel and the free world. That attitude will not go away with an agreement that lacks authority and enforcement. It is past time for the Iranian people to step up and take their freedom. Perhaps they just want to sit on the sideline and have someone take the risk and do the job for them. I guess that is why soccer is so popular in many troubled places.” —Washington
