It actually works out better for the GOP that he didn't resign already. May 30th was the deadline to have a special election this November to fill his seat. So whoever the AZ governor appoints will be Senator for two years and will then be on the ballot in Nov. 2020. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

Would have been better if he resigned in 2008. The President is a fink. |

Gives her enough time to make a splash for herself before the election in 20? Voters don't like losing any of their congress people that have so much power from so many years in office. Isn't that why all these old fossils get re elected? Everyone knows they can direct money to their state? The last official act of any government is to loot the treasury. GW |

That show would never be on today, way too non PC. Pointing out how some people live way better than others just isn't done now in our socialist attitude country. This was a prime time show in the mid 80's: If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

You've missed a lot of tv then. Housewives of Beverly hills, the Kardashians, shows about rapper's cribs, etc., You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

Agreed. In a sense, the show was groundbreaking, celebrating the extravagance of the 80's that has shaped today's America. |

It's not the same. It's not week by week in prime time throwing it in your face that they live that way and you don't on one of the big 3 networks. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

| petroglyph Member since: Aug 3, 2014 Threads: 25 Posts: 6227 | We have the hit series "Frasier" on loop, interesting that series shows in the day would have around 22 episodes per season, now some have 8. They are almost like a long movie, or movie with a sequel in hours shown. I have thought many times how the Frasier series would never be filmed for a G audience today, way to non pc. Also of note both Niles and Martin were both gay in real life, but were able to joke about gayness on the show. The last official act of any government is to loot the treasury. GW |
