There are 3 kinds of people, those that understand numbers and those that don't.

She will slip out of metal contention I'm sure by the time it's all said and done. I'm glad that she didn't crash and die like some have wished for. I don't care for her opinions but they have no effect on my life........so.

I'm sick of the incessant bitching and meddling of dim bulbs celebrities and athletes. But, now you're special because you've taken the noble position of not wanting her to break her neck.

Not noble, just the way I was brought up.

I don't find it offensive at all. I just have a different opinion. I respect your opinion and I hope that my opinion is respected as well.

I love this forum like no other because you can come here and discuss topics on many different subjects without being beat up for your own thoughts. That and I've been a gun guy for over a half a century, so I can offer a little of my experience in our love of the subject on guns.

Yeah, they are a pair to draw to alright. I was hoping to never see either one of them again. They're like a wart that keeps flaring up. Golf was doing just fine without the winey hack and the same could be said about downhill skiing.

Just go away please and don't come back!

A friend told me that the TV network focused all of their attention on this swine and when she lost, they had egg on their faces, not really knowing what to do.

My guess they wanted to see this anti-Trump bitch win, and again, they thought wrong Razz

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

Vonn seemed far too concerned about her image, marketability and fame. Winter Olympics athletes from Northern European seem far more concerned about performing well for the sake of performing well for their countries.

"I want to represent our country well. I don't think that there are a lot of people currently in our government that do that.


This woman doesn't have the capacity to think. I'd like to ask her:

"Imagine there are two people asking for your vote. Person A wants to represent Americans as independent people who are qualified to run their own lives without interference from the government. Additionally, person A believes the working people in the country - the tax payers - aren't getting a fair return on their tax dollars, so person A wants to reduce their tax burden, and better use those tax dollars to represent the interests of those tax payers.

On the other hand, person B wants to use the tax-payer's dollars to make America conform with the rest of the world's societies, which are all run by tyrannical governments that tax the workers much worse than America does.

Which person better represents America: person A (Trump), or person B (Hilliary)?"

Vonn is just a brain-washed person who was brain-washed by attending public schools, which have become basically warehouses for kids.
To add to what you’re saying

I noticed last night in her interview that she never mentioned the United States once. It was all I or me. Yep, she competeted in the Olympics to represent the United States. Roll Eyes

I was loving it when she was crying. My wife and I were both hoping she would fall to 4th place since she said that was the worst position of all.

The 2nd place winner, Mowinkel or however you say it, was genuinely happy and proud to come in 2nd and achieve that for herself and her country.

Vonn was just entitled that she would win gold and it was a done deal, and her endorsements and love would just pour in. Even her bullshit about picking number 7 to deny the other girl a chance to compare herself to Vonn.. blah blah.

Go fuck yourself, princess, its bronze for you.




Don't weep for the stupid, or you will be crying all day
