psydude posted:CBP doesn't even enforce most customs duties at the airport. Strictly speaking, you aren't allowed to carry more than one liter of booze into the US duty free, and yet people roll through all the time with a ton of it.] Wait why the gently caress would I be bringing booze INTO the USA  Did you mistype or am I missing something? Booze is cheap like rear end in the USA compared to here.

I guess that makes sense, we were taking about Canadian cross border shoppers & I was just remembering seeing literal made in Canada booze on the shelf right alongside all the same stuff I see on shelves back home, except all for way cheaper & wondered what Canadians would possibly be bringing into the US when it came to booze.

He's likely going to get re-elected this year since he's pretty much avoided being what passes for a typical republican these days. The R next to his name may be enough to sink him. Hogan should just switch parties or go independent at this point. He really doesn't resemble any sort of Republican currently in national government, including MD's own whack job Republican representative from the Eastern Shore. I voted for Ben Jealous in the primary. I like Hogan, but I can't really abide by anyone serving in office who identifies with the Republican party. Same thing goes for the Howard County executive, who, like Hogan, got elected in a deep blue area during the 2014 Republican wave.

I moved to VA since the last election but have been following the race at a glance, are any of the candidates better than Brown? Cause I mean if you wanted a sneak preview the 2016 election (Candidate who thinks he has the race in the bag and becomes super smug about the race before he "wins"), that was it.
