...and it's very possible the next person in that office (treasury? whatever it is) will change it.

No it isn't.

 

[nerfhearder]

No it isn't.

The article I read about it last week said that was very much the case. Whether it is or not I don't know, I go by what I read.

I get the sense you have zero idea how silly that response is. But, in any case, good context to know for all of your future posts.

So I should know by not reading? I guess I could learn from tv but the last time I did that it turned out that Mulder and Scully weren't real.

If you're going to post a response based purely on what you read in an article, you should cite that as the case from the beginning, and also link to the article.

No, I won't be doing that. I'll link something if I start a thread, otherwise it's not my problem.

And I'd also like to say that I was very disappointed that Scully wasn't real. I thought maybe I had a chance. A redheaded doctor FBI agent that chases monsters, it's like Chris Carter knew my innermost sexual fantasies. Bastard.

I don't think HT would be impressed, this is a new low in stupid, political ideas.

Then your previous quote will come back to haunt you, because it'll be cited whenever you chime in on a topic as if you have knowledge vetted by critical thinking - which, by your own admission, you do not. That'll probably be a lot of fun for you.

I'm kinda doubting that will happen and if it does then it's still not my problem.
You want to know if something is true then go look it up. I used google, so can you.

Going to be interesting to see how long this misbegotten idea lasts. As long as the SBA or Saca?

I could be mistaken but I'm pretty sure that's exactly what your mother said.

I sorta figured YOU of all people would be the most offended, seeing as the Democrats saw fit to announce this on your most hallowed and revered day of the year.

I'm happy with the change.

I love it. It's a sign of progress as a nation and as a society.

It's still gonna spend as well as the Jacksons, right? I mean, it's not suddenly gonna be worth $16 just because there's a woman on it?

It's nice but Tubman is kind of eh. Not a bad choice but not a good one either.

 

[doctor_insanus]

Oh, well.

 

[LadyVer]

I preferred Wilma Mankiller over Harriet Tubman, but Tubman is good.

Personally, I think that currency should be restricted to portraits of deceased Presidents only.

But it isn't now. Hamilton and Franklin were never president.

In all honesty, you could put a gun to my head and I couldn't tell you what Harriet Tubman was noted for.

Interesting. She figured prominently in my elementary school history course, way back in the mid-60s.

 

[nerfhearder]

I preferred Wilma Mankiller over Harriet Tubman, but Tubman is good.

When they first said it was going to be a woman I assumed Sue B. or maybe even Rosa Parks. Really lots of choices. Why not some good first ladies?
But we agree that Tubman is a decent choice.
