Does Herschel Walker have any qualifications to become a US Senator other than playing football?

Yes, I know Tuberville was a football coach. So there is that. We love us some football here in SEC land.

Herschel is over 30 years of age and has been a citizen for in excess of nine years. Presumably he is currently a resident of Georgia.

He’ll fit right in with half the democratic parity right now.

It's only in the last 150 years that a pope reversed that.
Whatever would you do if some pope comes along and reverses course again?
Would your head explode?
Maybe you'd rather have a women in her doctor's office with a life threatening ectopic pregnancy...waiting for her doctor to get an OK from local politicians.
Sounds like a good plan.

Not even remotely what is going on right now. More politics of fear from the Left.

Maybe I should move to Georgia and run. It worked for Oz.

This is just perfect.
You're an Arizona voter, and you want to send $5.00 to support Blake Masters for the Senate.

But...if you send it, he'll only get 1%, or $.05.
The other 99%, $4.95, goes to...you guessed it...Donald Trump (so he can pay off his legal bills.)

If you really wanted to send your candidate $5.00 that he would get...you'd have to send $500.00...and Trump would keep $495.00.
The perfect grift !

That scenario is not even in play. EVERY state law has exceptions for ectopic and “life of the mother” issues.
And, by the way, this is NOT an issue between a woman and “her doctor”. In cases of “life of the mother” no doctor has to go to a politician. He can act.
The issue is a woman killing her baby. And after 15 weeks, even in European countries, that is the world standard of not being allowed. And guess what? That is exactly what the Dobbs decision decided for Mississippi.
“Some Pope” was smart to reverse that bad teaching just as the Supreme Court was smart to reverse a badly flawed ruling. You don’t live centuries ago Paul, you live today with all kinds of medical advances making babies more viable earlier as time progresses. Those medical advances were not known to Popes for centuries. No one, even doctors up until the 1800’s knew what viability was growing inside a Mother. As technology and knowledge advanced, so did the Church in its beliefs.

Fetterman is completely collapsing.....so the Dems do what the Dems always do....

"Almost a quarter of a million ballots were mailed to Pennsylvania voters without verifying their identity, state lawmakers say in a letter seeking answers from the state’s top election official.

“According to the data, as of Oct. 21, 2022, a staggering 240,000 ballots are ‘NOT VERIFIED,’” 15 Republicans in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives write Tuesday in the letter to acting Secretary of the Commonwealth Leigh Chapman. "

What a disgrace....

Oh yea, all you snowflakes that freak out every time Trump says something about 2020, I wonder why we haven't heard a peep from you regarding Hillary's "pre-2022 election denial"..
