    Did you mean 'not'? Or is Ryan now adamant on trading him?
  2. Squirrel
    Probably, which is why I'd be even more disappointed to only get that for him.
  3. Squirrel
    Fixed it for you.
  4. Squirrel
    I'm sorry, but this was your statement: 'Perhaps you don't talk to enough liberals on these issues. I mean, we have an entire section of political conversation that thinks even attaching "Islam" to "terrorism" is grounds to be labeled a racist. The other side fear mongers and creates actual bigotry but in the middle is a conversation we NEED to have and no one is having. At least not as a general populace.' I apologize if I misunderstood what you were saying, but it seemed to me you were saying on the one had we have liberals who do one thing, and on the other side is those who are fear mongers, such as Trump. You seemed to be equating liberals on the balance scale to those, such as Trump, who use fear and extreme rhetoric. All I was asking is, if you want a rational conversation, don't equate liberals on the opposite side of the scale as Trump or the rational conversation you want goes out the window because you've just insulted the large majority you want to come to some middle ground with.
  5. Squirrel
    I don't. If you read what I wrote, I put liberals and conservatives on the same scale ... not the extremists.
  6. Squirrel
    Please don't put liberals on the balance scale with the likes of Trump. Seriously. I am a very liberal minded person, very. And I find your use of the word somewhat insulting. Yes, there are 'extremists' on both sides, but being a liberal is no more extreme than being a conservative.
  7. Squirrel
    I'm really thankful for this thread today.
  8. Squirrel
    Yeah, I know you're right ... but it just is so dehumanizing for all of us.
  9. Squirrel
    I made the mistake of reading some of them ... it really stabs hope in the gut. People don't want to face their own bigotry ... yes, Levi, sorry, I'm using that inflammatory word ... they don't want to face it, or even acknowledge anything wrong here.

    The article didn't indicate the man was drunk. Was he? Even so ... that NO ONE did anything, drunk or not. At the very least this man was threatening and harassing ... security should've thrown him out. Period. And yeah, I get it ... we've come to expect this of drunken idiot fans ... and that's part of the problem, too.
  11. Squirrel
    Lol ... see my post above.
  12. Squirrel
    No ... McDonald's Apple Pie! Oh, wait ... that was covered in the National Fried Pie Day. But wouldn't it also be a pastry?
  13. Squirrel
    Yeah, I know ... you expect me to bake something fantastic then post the sideways picture of it.
  14. Squirrel
    That was it for pastries in the vending machine.
  15. Squirrel
    So, in honor of National Pastry Day I had a pop-tart for breakfast. All I can say is it looked good in the vending machine. Disappointed.
  16. Squirrel
    Nah, shellac it and hang it on the wall for posterity.
  17. Squirrel
    Yeah ... I made the mistake of reading the comments, too. I almost cried. But I'm at work. The thing is, politicians aside, people need to start standing up to this kind of ****. Complacency is the other evil.
  18. Squirrel
    And acts like this are the result, at a public event, assumptions based on this hate and fear, and will increase, unless we stand and say 'Enough!' http://m.startribune.com/my-run-in-with-hate-speech-at-a-minnesota-vikings-game/361117251/
  19. Squirrel
    I won't 'like' this because what's to like about it. But I'm right there with you. And the more the rhetoric of hate and fear flies, the more it takes root in every day life.
  20. Squirrel
    A-Men, Brother! Sing it, Hallelujah!
  21. Squirrel
    The fact you would consider voting for this modern-day Hitler tells me all I need to know.
  22. Squirrel
    So, you think this country is in better hands with Voldemort Hitler than Hillary?
  23. Squirrel
    Ben ... this thread is already muddied with many discussions and talking points. And this IS a Twins website. While we try to keep things 'organized' there is no way to make it 'pure' as you'd like, with no Twins talk whatsoever in this forum. I'm not closing this thread down, nor am I trying to move or alter discussion. But the fact is there are Winter Meetings threads in the Twins Talk forum that is about Twins rumors and signings as well as all other rumors and signings, for each day of the meetings, and I'm just tying to supply a cross reference.
  24. Squirrel
    Ben, I'm not suggesting you post elsewhere, I'm just saying that some discussion is happening elsewhere, too, and there might be other talking points others are interested in even if you are not.
  25. Squirrel
    Some of these deals are also being discussed in the Winter Meetings threads in the main forum for another point of reference. http://twinsdaily.com/topic/20927-winter-meetings-tuesday-thread/ http://twinsdaily.com/topic/20917-winter-meetings-monday-thread/
