minnesota rules, esp minneapolis and st. paul, amazing performance art there and fishing to die for most of the year, even for a good while after it gets cold

chicago rules, great food and tons of awesome history, and delightful sailing on the lake

kansas city rules, best food and beer anywhere (i'd seriously take a KC brewery over any SF one and best steaks on the loving planet) and wilderness trails to hike that explode in color and life like 10 out of the 12 months of the year and lay the lie to 'it's just flat & boring :derp:'

Hannity has Cathy Shelton on the show - She's the woman who was raped at 12, and Hillary defended her rapist.

He opened it up by playing a tape of Hillary giving a run down of the case, she laughs a few times during the tape, I couldn't make much of it out since the quality is garbage and I'm half paying attention.

I think this is a philosophy we can all aspire to.

Only state in the union that didn't vote for Reagan in 1984, one of only six that didn't in 1980.

Best state.

what? the best possible outcome is Trump wins because then he has unbelievable access to the President of the United States. what would his overjoyed supporters do? stop reading breitbart? lol, a Trump win would cause Breitbart to blow up in popularity.

do I think he thinks Trump has a good enough shot at this point? probably not, and I think he's influencing the campaign to go hard right because of this, but I don't think its because he didn't want Trump to win.

Anger drives more viewers/clicks than winning though. These right wing media outlets do better under democratic presidents than republican ones:

and grandstand burgers, a loving double-wide trailer that serves burgers so good that google maps places them as a bigger landmark than the nearby walmart and home depot

seriously kansas city just owns

also our somali population isn't segregated as hell so that's also cool, income inequality is still a huge issue though. i work with a couple of the big family/clan units on the south side, education is hard for them because their mother tongues are so far away from english so it's hard for them to do the whole traditional schooling thing. there's lots of CNAs

yeah 25% is an insane number that would be incredibly difficult to pull off without, say, Trump going completely off the rails and spending at least two days in November giving speeches in WI-1 on how much Paul Ryan sucks and endorsing the Democrat






which he probably has a decent chance of doing

That isn't off the rails, those are the rails he is on

Well, probably not the only rails

Thank you. I've been driving through KC fairly regularly recently and have been thinking that I should stop and eat there sometime. But I've just been motoring through. Now that I have some good information I will stop and my taste buds will thank me aka-> you.

crane brewing in raytown basically does no beers seriously wrong - you can go from their more traditional stuff to their tea weiss and basically never have a bad experience. that's rare.

boulevard also does outrageously good with basically all of their smokestack series, like seriously name a style and aside from a porterhouse boulevard does it well

this bears itself out on untappd if you look at brewery ratings, ain't just me raving holmes
