So Kavanaugh did stoopid sh** as a teenager, ffs.By that standard, many of us would be under the jail. Biden's actions were not committed by a teen. No, most of us did not habitually assault women as teenagers. Side note, you must have had some fucking horrendous judgement in terms of choosing your friends and associates back then if you thnk that's true. Side side note, I didn't realise that 'hasn't gone to jail' was the gold standard for choosing Supreme Court justices. Hell, why bother having confirmation hearings if all you need to do is check to see if they've got a criminal record?

Hi Mark, #1) Re: Do you actually think that Biden is not being covered 24x7? Care to answer this? #2) Re: Can you show me the media circus over this alleged misconduct? I cannot; probably because it is simply not that important to the media. IMO if it were as important as you allege, FOX News would surely 'be all over it.'

No, most of us did not do that sort of "stoopid sh**" as teens. But that's beside the point. As one of Cat's friends pointed out, it was so long ago that she was willing to forgive. Then she heard his blatant lies about his childhood, and was not willing to forgive that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In fairness, Mark, your postings do give the impression you favor Trump. So I'll ask you straight up, knowing what you know today, were the election was today, would you vote for Biden or Trump? And then please say why. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If this allegation turns out to be credible, and there is strong indication it will, it will and should be very damaging to Joe. But if a damaged Joe means Bernie I would go with Joe. Good luck America. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No offense, but some day's SC seems like a "Who wants to be an American" game show and the only option, if you don't know the answer, is to poll the international audience.

wolfriverjoe 1,329 #39 April 11, 2020 15 minutes ago, brenthutch said: Trump wins? If the competition was "Who is the more predatory sexual predator?", then yes. He also wins 'Who told the most lies?' 'Who lined his own pockets the most?' and 'Who hired more unqualified and incompetent staff?'. None of those are 'good' to win. One could argue that once was a mistake. It may or may not be true and should still have consequences, but if it only happened once, then it could be. However, if it happens multiple times, and the rapist is caught on audio bragging about how he can get away with it (also multiple times), then it's well beyond the 'mistake' category.

wmw999 2,090 #43 April 13, 2020 You know, that says more about you than anything else, that the most offensive thing you can think of is for a man to be interested in an African American man.

When I was a kid, another kid's parents admonished him not to eat things he found outside (like apples from a nearby tree) because "a black man might have peed on it." To some people, there's nothing worse than being black (or gay.) And that shows in their comments. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Trump isn't capable of "eating alive" any smart, well spoken human on the planet. Trump is a verbal salad of idiocy. He resorts to insults and lies within seconds of opening his Big Mack hole.

brenthutch 383 #47 April 14, 2020 (edited) Apparently the Biden campaign does. They went into full character assignation mode when Rogan said that he would vote for Bernie. Biden is a shell of his former self (and even that wasn't very impressive) and getting worse. If he cant field a question on guns from a union member, Trump will be shoveling a verbal salad of idiocy down his throat during the debates. Perhaps this is more palatable Edited April 14, 2020 by brenthutch Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
