My guess is they were "Shopped", though in reality she is a VERY attractive woman ... both politically and physically.

Another line from the same site: "State control, not federal. I will resist over-reach from the federal government, including Common Core, and protect our schools from federal intrusion into the state and local responsibility of public education."

Pulled this from the Doug Ducey website. Not sure all of his positions, still doing my research, but I do like some of what I have heard from him lately. “Educational standards are an important and necessary tool to ensure Arizona’s schools are properly educating our students. However, I believe we can do better than the standards currently tied to funding from the federal government. Ideally, such standards should come from the state itself and not be imposed top-down from Washington. The federal government’s recent track record on important issues (health care, spending, budgets, and border security, to name a few) has been dismal. “But standards are only part of the school reform equation. Other issues – like parental choice, merit pay for teachers, increased authority for principals, and fixed funding formulas – are equally as important. With two of the top five schools in the nation and the best options for school choice, its clear Arizona knows how to educate a child. The key is replicating that kind of success statewide with options that prepare our students for the future."

Common core is a joke. Absolutely the Left Wing nutjobs plan to DEMAND COMPLIANCE AND OBEDIENCE from the future generations.

It's a great message ... too bad most networks will never show it because they are in the tank for the Liberal/Progressive Agenda. They only want to show stuff that sensationalizes their causes and makes sure that the idiotic millions watching will vote to give up their own freedoms. Heads of the major networks all need to have their butts kicked in.

Ford 8.8 is nice, but you have to run an adapter if you want the same bolt pattern ... I think the Exploder is 5 on 4.5 and the Jeep is 5 on 5. Ford 9" is also great ... light and good clearance. Third Member style.

Without a doubt, there are some people out there who should not own guns ... but the laws on who that is are really screwed up. Say, for example, I get into it with a guy who grabs my wife's butt at a restaurant. Maybe nobody see it, and it's his word against mine. Say I beat the tar out of said perpetrator of butt grabbage (which I think would be well within my rights), and end up getting convicted of felony assault because the guy has to eat through a straw for a year and the jury looks at me (not a small or un-intimidating sort of gent) and decides that I "over-reacted". Even though I didn't use a weapon to beat the snot out of this person, because I am convicted of a felony of this nature I can no longer own a gun (at least until my rights are restored 10+ years later). Is that fair? Am I a bigger danger to society for firearm violence? I would argue NOT. Dumb law that needs to be looked at. However ... someone with severe mental issues ... I can see not wanting them to have a weapon. Judging who has mental issues is tricky, and they need to figure out something that is fair. If, for example, a kid is really unbalanced and the parents and siblings want them evaluated, I'd have to say that the court should take that into consideration and probably have them evaluated. If someone gets arrested for erratic public behavior, and clearly has mental issues, I think the court should be able to evaluate them ... and probably letting them keep guns they have or buy new ones would be a bad move. Someone who has been convicted of using a gun in a crime ... they should NEVER have the right to own a gun again. Just my opinion. The law that they propose is WAAAAY to vague. Maybe something like it could/should exist, but not with the vague language. There should be some very strict requirements imposed on just WHO can pursue such an order, and there needs to be a mechanism to have the order lifted if it is found to be unjustified. There should absolutely be strict requirements on proving an "imminent danger". I am no attorney, but there has to be away to wordsmith it correctly so that the orders are not easy to get ... and maybe there should be a VERY stiff penalty for filing for one unjustly ... like jailtime. I don't know ... I am definitely a gun rights, SUPER PRO SECOND AMENDMENT guy, but the fact is that NOT EVERYONE should be able to buy or own guns. There are definitely people out there who don't have the mental facilities to handle such ownership and responsibility. But the laws need to make sense and not punish those who SHOULD have the right ... As far as the DUMB A _ _ @ 1600 PA Ave .... he can kiss my backside. Someone should point out the examples of China, Russia and Nazi Germany to him when he talks about acting on his own to take the guns away. Every despot in history has sought to remove the means of self defense from those they have subjugated.

Yep ... and his new press dog said, after the shooting in Oregon, that he will act unilaterally on guns in the interest of protecting us .... some protection ... he's released hundreds of illegals with violent criminal records and 5 terrorists. What we need protection from is him and his friggin' agenda.

What a joke. Absolute absurdity. Hey Mr. Baker ... get the toilet plunger out and make the court some "Special Cakes"!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -
I don't know about the whole Open Primary thing. I think it gives opportunity for some underhanded crap. If you are Independent, I see getting to vote in a primary if you request it. But if you are a Republican and want to eliminate a Dem or a Dem and you want to eliminate a Republican from competition, I don't know if I agree with that. Seems to me just another "game" to deal with, and elections are not games to me ... as we are seeing very clearly with this Lame BUTT at 1600 (Mr. I'll Do Whatever I Want). As for Cantor ... I don't know enough about what he stood for to know if it's a good or bad thing. If he was a RINO then good riddance to bad trash. There are a bunch of others that need to follow him ... McLame being one of the highest on my list.

No question about it ... though the cost difference may be significant on the barrel itself. Can't imagine you will save a boatload on the smithing since it will still need headspaced properly. Savings on the order of a couple hundred??? Some smith out there probably knows better than me.

He's done several things that (if Nixon's transgressions were) represent impeachable offenses. At least to my eye. But the press never gives it any traction (like they would if he were Conservative) because they are in the tank, so people don't pressure their Senate Representatives to do anything. I refuse to believe that the people in this country are that stupid or disinterested that accurate representation of information would not make their blood boil. But maybe I a wrong. Maybe most people are just sheeple and like being lied to and crapped on. The media/press are, to me, the biggest enemy to the American way of life that we knew growing up. They are worse than the Politicians, because they encourage the action by throwing up a smoke screen any/every time they can.

I've got a Remington Bag that I bought 20 years ago at Sport's Authority for about $40. Rated to -20 deg. I've been in temps down to zero with it and the only complaint I have is that I SWEAT IN THE BAG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I actually need to buy one that is less warm for some of my hunts. Lots of good bags on the market ... personally I like the ones with flannel liner and a canvas shell. All preference.

That would be political suicide for the 41. Has to pass in both House and Senate with 2/3 majority, then be ratified by 3/4 of the states...which would create an Amendment to modify the First Amendment. Good luck doing that Lefties!!!!
