  1. 338

    Define the meaning

    The definition doesn't tell you what it means. And it doesn't mean anything you want it to. Everyone is telling you there is no meaning and you aren't to blame. Well you are; to blame for all of this.

  2. 337

    Absolutist's trying to get it done

    It isn't perfect, it's not absolute, but&nbsp;you do it anyway, otherwise you would&nbsp;never do anything. Making a mistake is&nbsp;better than doing nothing.&nbsp;

  3. 336

    Vote No

    Time to fire them all. No more work arounds.&nbsp;If you can't get any work done and you can only&nbsp;find ways to get around working, time to get a new&nbsp;job.&nbsp;

  4. 335

    Conversion Perversion

    Man made is perverted. Man can make anything out of anything,&nbsp;but it is far from acceptable. God makes&nbsp;everything perfect. Elections are man madebe careful what you think you are voting for.&nbsp;

  5. 334

    Just so you know

    we do fit but they tell us we don't. It isn't becausewe won't conform its because the&nbsp;muslims don't fit in a free society.&nbsp;I hope I don't have to tell everyone, "I told you so."&nbsp;

  6. 333

    Believe it when you see it

    Never listen to what they tell you&nbsp;that you saw. They don't want you&nbsp;to stay firm to what you see with your&nbsp;own eyes, they just want you confused.&nbsp;

  7. 332

    The role of an Idol

    Is not the one to be worshipped.&nbsp;Only anger is the result. Governmentdoesn't provide for you. You do.

  8. 331

    Don't shoot yourself in the foot

    Vote. Never pick none of the above.Never vote for other candidates; you will essentially be shooting yourself in the foot. Its called a spoiler effect. Your candidate will lose because you are the spoiler.

  9. 330

    Context: Who not what

    The story is not about what because the presswants you to see it their way. It needs&nbsp;perspective and that comes from who your talking about. &nbsp;It's a disgrace the way the press abuses&nbsp;all of us by not allowing us to provide our&nbsp;ownperspective.&nbsp;

  10. 329

    A True Public Servant

    Dr Howell Shaw running for Clark County Clerk. Dr Shaw has real plans to grow the services and the response time of the Clark County Clerks office. This is a real candidate that offers real solutions for an office that takes far too long to process licenses etc to the public.

  11. 328

    The winner of the poor sport award

    It isn't played on the soccer field. Statesmen don't&nbsp;play on the field of play. They can be the biggest poor&nbsp;sports of all. Stop mixing them together. Take politics out&nbsp;of sports. We are done now.&nbsp;

  12. 327

    You are never mistaken

    You are 50/50 right or wrong.&nbsp;The facts are the facts. The&nbsp;evidence proves right or wrong.&nbsp;But you are never mistaken your just&nbsp;wrong.&nbsp;

  13. 326

    Compassion: A Fashion Statement

    It looks dressed up, but when you take awaythe fashion statement, its compassion. They&nbsp;dress up the pity and think you don't know they&nbsp;are looking down at you. You're just a schmuck.&nbsp;You don't deserve the truth.&nbsp;

  14. 325

    Test tube testosterone

    You can tell which one is fake. You are convinced&nbsp;that it is the one you want to look like. It can'treplace the one that God made, but you will&nbsp;find that out in time.&nbsp;

  15. 324

    A hurtless heart

    Your heart gives only to give not to receive.When you love for a return on what you&nbsp;give you will be heart broken, but then you&nbsp;don't have heart when you give to get.&nbsp;

  16. 323

    The company you keep

    determines the deeds you do. You will be influenced whether you think you will or not. Keep in mind the people that hurt for your misdeeds. All of us are affected by the company you keep.

  17. 322

    God has a funny bone

    God is funny. He points things out to ususing a great sense of humor. If you take&nbsp;it too close to your heart, you won't get it.&nbsp;New York is about to see what's in store for&nbsp;it, and God thinks it's funny.&nbsp;

  18. 321

    Privilege's price is a penalty

    America 250 proves how far we are from knowingthe price our forefathers paid for freedom. We think&nbsp;that are people of privilege. The price is much more consequential thenthe one our forefathers paid. And the price will never be paid.

  19. 320

    Dear America

    The freedom is preserved by you. We can only&nbsp;keep the hope alive when it is alive in us. Are you&nbsp;on board? Or are you a deserter.&nbsp;

  20. 319

    Capitalism; the great equalizer

    Build your dream. Government didn't&nbsp;help. Our success is not their success&nbsp;but they have their hand out. Some ways to get them to put their hand back in their own pocket.

  21. 318

    Oppress thyself

    We inflict ourselves with a lot of pain. I don't think we can be oppressed without our permission. You will see when I tell you the story. Listen and follow me.

  22. 317

    News Media Madmen

    are telling you what to think.&nbsp;They think you don't know what&nbsp;to think, or that they will make you&nbsp;insecure about what you think.&nbsp;I will tell you with examples how to&nbsp;fix it.&nbsp;

  23. 316

    Who God? What About Him?

    Each day that you turn away is a day not&nbsp;to recognize what is right in front of you.&nbsp;The way to make it work. All we ever hear&nbsp;is how broken it is. Are you part of the solution?

  24. 315

    Cause of death undetermined

    We did an autopsy of the 2026 Nevada PrimaryElection and found that the turn out was low and&nbsp;the patient didn't survive. But we don't know why?&nbsp;Lots of questions unanswered. Lots of ballots not cast.&nbsp;Why don't you want to vote for the candidate that is going&nbsp;to represent you. What's with that?

  25. 314

    Know it all

    Isn't the way to enlightenment. You don't have all the information yet you think you have all the information. That is why you can't learn anything new. Then you are enlightened and you become the Fool on the Hill.

  26. 313

    Parallel Presidencies

    Overlap one to the other. Two&nbsp;different deals. Which one holds.&nbsp;The first one not so much, will the second one&nbsp;do the job?

  27. 312

    Justice denied

    If the criminal goes free, are you being punished?&nbsp;How can criminals get away with this? We&nbsp;let them and the punishment falls to us.&nbsp;Stop letting them go free.&nbsp;

  28. 311

    Check the box: Perversion

    All mayors have a plan for their cities. Why&nbsp;does their plan have to include perversion.&nbsp;We can do that without any help but now the&nbsp;government is overseeing our perversion. What&nbsp;does this tell you about us?

  29. 310

    The sign says "Out of Order"

    you think something is broken. That isn't the&nbsp;only meaning. Elections are non partisan. Is that the&nbsp;correct meaning. That's the problem people keep&nbsp;calling us out of order. We aren't what is broken.

  30. 309

    Why not phone it in

    Secure, private, and verified. That's what&nbsp;your vote should be, so phone your vote in.&nbsp;This mail in ballot must be stopped. It's cheatingand the only way to stop it and secure your vote is&nbsp;to phone it in.&nbsp;

  31. 308

    California's upside down cake

    Its the same one in Nevada. We all have an&nbsp;upside down problem. We are the only ones that canturn it right side up. Question is what are we doing&nbsp;about it. Not going to happen without change.&nbsp;

  32. 307

    Squeezing the lifeless

    You won't get anything out of the lifeless. You have to change. change your old mindset. Bring about new life, by letting go of the old one.

  33. 306

    Shock value wears off

    and you realize there is no substance. They just wanted yourattention, but they have nothing to offer. Talarico is a shock candidatebut he won't do anything if he gets elected.

  34. 305

    Faking it, you won't make it

    Get real. You can't fool people all the time.&nbsp;At some point they will get it. Take these stories&nbsp;and tell me you don't see how fake they are.&nbsp;

  35. 304

    Tying the knot

    We are interviewing a wedding aficionado; Maria Romano.We are going to explore the meaning and value of love knots.&nbsp;They can also be used as love legacies. Come along and explorewith us.

  36. 303

    Was it worth dying for

    We ask whether we could give our lives for&nbsp;the freedom that we have. The question is can&nbsp;we prove that the lives that were given were not given in vain.&nbsp;Because we are here we need to live our life like it was worth their dying&nbsp;for us.&nbsp;

  37. 302

    Believe it or not; you won't believe it

    Not because it isn't true. Because you make a choice&nbsp;not to believe it. Dems love this. They make their entire&nbsp;case on you not knowing what to believe.&nbsp;

  38. 301

    The condition of our condition is in peril

    How can this happen. Without flexing our muscles we&nbsp;lose the ability of staying in condition. And that happens to&nbsp;conditions that we didn't know were conditions. You have to&nbsp;listen to find out.

  39. 300

    Reflection of an eyesore

    We can't see our face in it. It's like a swamp.&nbsp;Full of feces and creatures like algae, green gunk&nbsp;and pond scum. Decay and decline every where&nbsp;and even in the DOJ. If you try to fix it you will face a force&nbsp;you never imagined.&nbsp;

  40. 299

    The truth lives and breathes

    You thought it only happened in Nazi Germany. It didn't. It happened in America too. We always find out the truth. It will always come to the surface no matter how many times they try to suppress it. It lives and breathes

  41. 298

    Killing it; won't kill the pain

    A judge running for Family Court is telling her story,&nbsp;as a shooting occurs in a local Smiths store because&nbsp;of a family dispute. Not solved. No parents for two children&nbsp;and the pain goes on.&nbsp;

  42. 297

    Bullies don't make deals

    The only negotiating tool bullies understand is ablack eye or a broken nose. If Iran wants to get&nbsp;peace they have to stop punching above their&nbsp;stations. The people of Iran are the only ones&nbsp;feeling the pain.&nbsp;

  43. 296

    Second guess: or just don't decide

    You can play the after the fact genius, or you can just stand on quick sand and not take a stand. Either way your lack of contributing is a factor that will destroy you. None of us will be the wiser.

  44. 295

    How far does the truth STRETCH

    Until the cloth is thread bare, but then you can still see through to the truth. Don't put your belief's in the basket with the press. They won't want you to see the truth, that's what they are trained for to deceive you.

  45. 294

    Play God at your own peril

    but if you need an organ, receive the&nbsp;gift of the transplant, and make your missionto be grateful to God for the life you have left.&nbsp;

  46. 293

    Twisting the rope into a noose

    You will end up tying it around your own neck. Twisting words my confuse your listener for a while and when you can't deliver they will know who you are. Keeping us on our toes is very short lived. Soon we will ignore you all together.

  47. 292

    Spiraling up or down; you choose

    Which way you will let it take you. It is all about&nbsp;your choice. You can choose to go up. Our countryis not out of control its we the people who are.&nbsp;

  48. 291

    Evil's allure is companionship

    You are never alone. Everyone is doing it. Temptation is that you can do&nbsp;it together. Kill the infidel you will be rewarded.&nbsp;And all your companions will applaud you.

  49. 290

    Follow the leader your told to

    Vote for the one we tell you to. We know what you need. You should never decide for yourself. If you belong to a party the party comes first, you don't matter.

  50. 289

    Media mind readers

    They not only tell you what to think, but their copy portraysa story of reading the minds of the interviews. NOT. Can't happenBut then the name of this show is "how can this happen"
