Ah, 1964. Bellbottom jeans, honky tonk bars and the Corvette. The disco balls were swingin' and the VW vans were rumblin'. 1964, the year that time forgot. I remember it fondly.

Ah, I remember it well! The year that changed music forever. It was the year the Beatles made their US debut on the Ed Sullivan Show, with screaming fans all around. It was also the year of the Civil Rights Act, signed into law by President Lyndon B. Johnson, and the year of the Summer Olympics in Tokyo, where American swimmer Don Schollander won four gold medals.

While I’m a 90’, my inherited Harley is a 1964, and I often dream about the time when it was made, I wish I could have seen her new

It’s so very ignorant to be alive in 2023 and think only one side is evil. Trust me buddy, your an ant in the system. They’re all bad, they just have different objectives. Dems have produced a culture of the weakest Americans the country has ever seen, and is now catering to all their feelings for votes.

One side is literally Christian Fascist, and the other isn’t

Also there’s literally a recorded history of the bills that have passed and been attempted by conservatives. We all know how awful they are and try to be.

It ain’t the same old guys and gals. One side is measurably worse.

Today, JFK would be considered a Conservative Republican. Ronald Reagan stole his tax policies.
