Challenge a Litster.

1) I challenge Rightguide to name a liberal policy that he agrees with, or even a liberal for whom he has respect.

2) I challenge Que to make posts of no longer than a single line for an entire day.

3) I challenge Aglaopheme to write something positive about a conservative politician or policy.

4) I challenge Laurel to post again on the GB.

Over to you. :rose:

I'd like to see all of those actually.

:cool:

Unfortunately I don't have a challenge to issue at this time. I'll have a think on it.
 
Boom!

It's a start.

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump declared the opioid crisis a public health emergency on Thursday and said the U.S. must confront "the worst drug crisis in American history."

"This epidemic is a national health emergency," Trump said during an address at the White House. "Nobody has seen anything like what is going on now. As Americans, we cannot allow this to continue. It is time to liberate our communities from this scourge of drug addiction."

Among other things, the declaration allows for expanded access to "telemedicine" services, something the White House points out as being important in dealing with a crisis that is concentrated in rural areas across the United States.

States now also have the ability to expand the number of patients suffering from drug addiction they can treat at their facilities. At the agency level, money already granted can be now also be used to treat and prevent opioid addiction.

The president said he would be looking at the possibility of bringing "major lawsuits against people and companies that are hurting our people," as well as ensuring that one particular kind of "truly evil" opioid was taken off the market immediately.

Look, I even took a pass at posting about the some of the recent Republican's come to Jesus moments.
 
This thread is for calling out and challenging fellow Litsters. But wait! Before you tell me 'That's exactly what every other fucking thread does', I mean in a formal way: challenge them to do something that will be hard for them, or just fun to see. If they fail, we can note it here and set up a duelling thread in a while; if they succeed, they get to counter-challenge.

For example:

1) I challenge Rightguide to name a liberal policy that he agrees with, or even a liberal for whom he has respect.

2) I challenge Que to make posts of no longer than a single line for an entire day.

3) I challenge Aglaopheme to write something positive about a conservative politician or policy.

4) I challenge Laurel to post again on the GB.

Over to you. :rose:

Line as in a formatted typographical line or a line as in a single line of prose?

Liberals and conservatives can always agree that no matter what the problem may be it always the fault of "the other side." Seriously: Political contribution transparency.

Alan Colmes: Aside from being nauseatingly liberal he was an American patriot who loved his country.
 
I just looked him up: interesting guy. There seems to be an argument over whether he did good liberal work on the grounds he at least wasn't preaching to the converted, or was unhelpful because he ended up just looking like Hannity's stooge.

Thank you for another successful challenge. " so far, and Que is starting well...

Hannity on his own makes it clear that Colmes was not the stooge of the duo.
 
#5 everybody has to say something nice about the Litster they dislike the most.

I'm told Hannity delivered a moving eulogy at Colmes' funeral. They were very good personal friends, and I don't think that fact impeaches the political integrity of either.
 
I hope he never chokes on a peanut.
