  2. "I suppose the process of acceptance will pass through the usual four stages: (i) This is worthless nonsense; (ii) This is an interesting, but perverse, point of view; (iii) This is true, but quite unimportant; (iv) I always said so." J.B.S. Haldane, in 1963.

  4. Who mentioned debt? I just shared that most Americans believe the economy was better under Trump. Folks don’t feel, GDP or national debt, they feel inflation and when food and rent inflation far outpaces wage gains they really feel it and many are racking up credit card debt to make ends meet. https://abcnews.go.com/US/americans-credit-card-debt-hits-record-113-trillion/story?id=106990807#:~:text=Americans' credit card balances climbed,jump from the previous quarter. (no mention of FOX anywhere)
  5. Of the presidents during my lifetime, St. Ronald looks like the most profligate in % terms. GWB's legacy doesn't look so good either, given that his successor inherited the costs of Bush's wars.
  6. Brent, Brent! Why do you insist upon using FOX ideas to guide your thinking? Change in Total U.S. Debt by President trump= 33.1% change in the amount of $6.7 trillion and President Biden= 8.8% change and $2.5 trillion. President Biden will actually have infrastructure to show for that spending. trump nothing but some jet exhaust from the engines of billionaires.

  10. Moral turpitude strikes again. So much winning! https://apnews.com/article/john-eastman-donald-trump-2020-election-0041abb4a644638d916f3b5ad9006bdf LOS ANGELES (AP) — A judge has recommended that conservative attorney John Eastman lose his California law license over his efforts to keep former President Donald Trump in power after the 2020 election. Eastman, a former law school dean, faced 11 disciplinary charges in the state bar court stemming from his development of a legal strategy to have then-Vice President Mike Pence interfere with the certification of President Joe Biden’s victory. State Bar Court of California Judge Yvette Roland’s recommendation, issued Wednesday, now goes to the California Supreme Court for a final ruling on whether he should be disbarred. Eastman can appeal the top court’s decision. “Dr. Eastman maintains that his handling of the legal issues he was asked to assess after the November 2020 election was based on reliable legal precedent, prior presidential elections, research of constitutional text, and extensive scholarly material,” Eastman’s attorney, Randall Miller, said in a statement after the ruling. “The process undertaken by Dr. Eastman in 2020 is the same process taken by lawyers every day and everywhere – indeed, that is the essence of what lawyers do.” The judge found Eastman liable for 10 of the 11 charges, including misleading courts, moral turpitude, making false statements and plotting with Trump to hinder the transfer of power.
  11. Indeed, just absolutely hilarious. 50.5% of us are female and of the 100% at least 10% are released by nature from victorian sex mores. So no matter how you do math a clear majority are being controlled by a minority and the only way they can pull off that trick is by using the government. Oh, and by lying their asses off, too, of course.
  12. Funny how these conservatives who are so distrustful of government are all in favor of government having control of womens' bodies and government telling people who they may or may not love.
  13. Of course he does not, I requested that data in post #2049 but as usual from Trumpies: Nada. They can never simply state exactly what they like about Trump while owning his innumerable deficits.
  14. Unless they were asking for some preposterous amount, the hijackers usually got what they asked for. LaPoint asked for a measly 50k and got it Hahneman wanted 303k and got it McNally asked for 502k and got it Heady asked for 200k and got it Francis Goodell asked for 450k and got it Holder and Kerkow asked for 500k and got it The only one who I'm aware of who was short changed (who wasn't asking for millions) was Melvin Fisher He was the copycat who had the money tied to him with stairs lowered but lost his nerve and didn't jump. He asked for 550k and got 200k

  18. Well, lots of people are interested in their own rights; a little less interested in others’ rights. Especially if those rights aren’t the the same ones. Wendy P.
  19. yeah I always get a kick out of right wingers who do not trust the government, and think it should be dismantled and yet claim to 'believe in the constitution', which is apparently all about personal freedoms and nothing else. They seem to ignore and gloss over all the parts of the constitution that specifically define the government and in many cases, its widespread and expansive powers to govern. cherry picking - much like they do with the bible and so many other things.
  20. “In a Democratic National Committee press call on Tuesday night, several party surrogates called Kennedy's presidential bid "disgusting" and a ploy to reelect Trump. "All he can do is take away votes from President Biden and make it easier for Donald Trump to win. And we simply can't afford to let that happen," said Pennsylvania Lt. Gov. Austin Davis.” https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/democrats-sound-alarm-rfk-jr-new-running-mate/story?id=108543625 Sound like they are craping their collective pants Fact enough for you?
  21. Of course you have specific numerous chapter, line and verse examples for your claims right?
  22. Fair enough. You worship a rapist, which would seem to be worse. I think that's what some might call worshiping a false prophet. Yep. When you assign someone a religion to someone, then go off on how filled with hate, hate, intolerance, and bigotry they are - that's a diatribe. Because the opposition to - and support of - elected leaders is central to our democracy. It's how democracy works. Take that away and you have . . . North Korea. Opposing corrupt politicians is actually central to our liberty. Keep in mind that Trump has stated that he will "terminate" the Constitution and become a dictator. That is a literal, direct threat to the Constitution. Rape is out of bounds for me. Sad that it is not for so many republicans. Giving politicians immunity for their crimes is out of bounds. They should obey the same laws we have to. Conspiring with Russia against the United States is out of bounds. Selling our secrets to our enemies is out of bounds. Hurting the feelings of Trump supporters - not so much.
  23. Well, there is Cheech Marin, "Born in East L.A."(1987).
  24. Well, of course, that's the norm actually. In this particularly obscene case the politician is Donald J. Trump and even if his stated policy was free 1998, 2002, and 2005 Grand Cru Burgundies, free jumps, free jet fuel, and new yachts annually for semi-retired DZO's I would still oppose him for the threat to democracy, world peace, and plague on humanity that he is.
  25. Trump needs to be held accountable for his crimes. Allowing him to be free from any consequences for his behavior is far more dangerous. What, exactly, is the 'threat to democracy' that is present by how he's being opposed? Presidential immunity? Please. As was noted in the SC arguments, if that was a thing, Biden could have Trump (or anyone) murdered without consequences. The idea that "all men are equal under the law" would be shit on. 14th Amendment issues? Again, please. There have been a number of Constitutional scholars who have stated pretty clearly that Trump should be barred from office for the Jan 6 insurrection attempt. Scholars from all political sides. The ones who are the REAL threat to democracy are the Rs who are trying incredibly hard, with zero success to impeach Biden. Every charge they've tried has fallen to pieces when closely examined. Just about everything has been exposed as a Russian lie. Seen elsewhere: Either Biden is so good at being a criminal that the Rs can't prove their charges, or the Rs are so incompetent that they can't provide any evidence of 'all this illegal activity'... Or it's all bullshit.
  26. Did you hold it for 10 years? $50,000 bought in Nov 2011 and sold in Nov 2021 would have netter over $10 million (before tax), which is much better than the $1.5 million today (have there been stock splits? can't remember)
  27. You first have to show political influence on Trump prosecution. Like, actual evidence. Exactly which lawsuit are you objecting to and for what reason?
