A place to discuss pro-conservative stuff

  1. Be excellent to each other. Civility, No Racism, No Bigotry, No Slurs, No calls to violences, No namecalling, All that good stuff, follow lemm.ee's rules, follow the rules of your instance, etc.

  2. We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

  3. Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.

A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

Keyword being did. If you pick the right window of my stock portfolio you could say the same thing.

When one wants to be upset and it's easiest to be upset about things one doesn't understand. When someone else starts pulling the levers of one's misunderstandings, they become a tool.

Historically she has beat the S&P and Warran Buffet. It isn't a small window, it is for years.

One could only dream of that type of performance. It is why there is a bill in play to stop this.
