So several insignificant groups lumped into one to make a little larger insignificant group sound about right?

You enjoy rewriting history I guess smile

In today's world (the only one that really matters) do you really think these groups are supporters of the democratic party? 

Facts are facts regardless......The KKK was formed and consisted of Democrats, the majority of anti-semites are on the left, and the democrats are the ones that created the inner city plantations. I dont dispute there are white supremist and that most of them vote republican of the ones that do vote but they are a very small segment, negligible in fact today.

Just because you're not sitting in a Gulag somewhere, for speaking out against your gov't....

So here is a question for you guys that keep spouting "its all about the science" when it comes to the vaccine.

Why did every single Democrat representative vote AGAINST mandating the vaccine for all those caught sneaking across the border and subsequently released into the US?

You had to reach all the way back to March to find something to dispute with? lol

Lets look at something more recent.....

https://nypost.com/2021/09/10/biden-wont-order-illegal-immigrants-to-get-covid-vaccine/

And something else much more recent as well..... "But Biden's federal vaccine mandate does not apply to Americans on welfare, illegal immigrants, members of Congress, U.S. Postal Service employees and several other groups." One has to wonder why Congress isnt going to be required....but if the push is to ensure everyone is vaccinated why on earth would welfare recipients not be required or illegal immigrants? Follow the science my ass LOL

Ohh and just to round it out..... On Sept 29th 217 Democrats blocked the latest effort to pass the REACT act which would require all illegal immigrants to be vaccinated just as they blocked it back in March......

So the science says that illegals, welfare recipients, Congress, the USPS among others are all not susceptible to Covid? 

Pretty sure you are not implying that, but rather implying our politicians are saying politics is more important than the science. If so then we agree 100% smile

Old astromart ratings

Posted By Greg Shaffer

I cant speak to the disappeared ratings issue but there seems to be quite a lot of confusion regarding the $15 a year fee vs supporter contributions. I know this is an older topic but hopefully folks will see the response and gain a better understanding of how things work.

The $15 per year fee is a membership fee that EVERYONE regardless of their supporter status pays. If you dont pay the yearly $15 fee then your access is severely limited.

Supporter contributions on the other hand are entirely voluntary and do include certain perks that regular members dont get. In the case of "lifetime" supporters you retain those perks without ever having to pay anything other than the $15 member fee per year. The other support levels start at 30 days and go up to 1 year depending on which option you pick. They all, including the lifetime one offer the same perks like highlighted ads, access to instant email classified ad notifications along with varying numbers of free ads. 

Bottom line is everyone pays the $15 per year regardless of their supporter status.

Biden Gov't is planning on Paying Illegal Alien Families up to $1,000,000 Per Family for Breaking the Law

How that turns into the made-up bullshit you want to attack no one really knows.

LOL....I am just amazed that you would even try to act like Obama didnt separate as many or more families as Trump not to mention most Presidents before them did the same thing. The hypocrisy is literally astonishing. Families have been broken up by the government for decades when criminals go to jail, centuries in fact. Illegals are criminals. The whole thing is just plain stupid.

Posted By Greg Shaffer

You touched on the problem James......LAWYERS and the liberal attitudes who want to say "well there are criminals and there are criminals and some are more entitled than others" The bottom line is crossing the border illegally is ILLEGAL and there are specific rules involved. If they need changing then change them (legally) but you dont ignore them because they dont suit you.
