  2. Posting a video and claiming it answers your question is such an obvious cop out as to be hard to respect. Canada essentially has had no abortion law for decades now. Society has not collapsed, but it seems to have led to low defense spending.
  3. Exactly. Under the leadership of evil mastermind Joe Biden, democratic operatives are going to Burkina Faso, Scotland and Kiribati and forcing prices higher! Dark Brandon is screwing up the WORLD not just the US! Also Biden is senile and can't even put two words together. It's elder abuse to keep him in office. To accept these two contradictory beliefs simultaneously, many republicans (such as the OP here) engage in what Orwell called "doublethink" - the process of indoctrination in which conservatives are expected to simultaneously accept two conflicting beliefs as truth, often at odds with their own memory or sense of reality. Some other examples: - Trump is a billionaire several times over, also Trump cannot afford a $355 million bond, and it's unfair to ask him to post that bond. - Conservatives are for freedom, and women can't be allowed to decide for themselves whether to get an abortion or do IVF. - Conservatives support free speech, and also want the National Guard to arrest and detain anti-Israel protesters because they should not be allowed to say that. - Conservatives oppose cancel culture, and also want Disney, Bud Light, Taylor Swift and Colin Kaepernick cancelled. - Conservatives are staunch patriots, and also want to support Putin's goals in Congress.
  4. Yessir, that's it for sure. No corporate price gouging, fewer chips in the bag etc. What's really crazy is how the Democrats deep state, deep fake, deep shit money party is raising prices worldwide. Sumbitch.
  5. If the answer was in the video, I don't watch those generally. I don't fault you for not wanting to say the icky part out loud which is that you would willingly sacrifice a women's agency in the name of a religious belief. Nothing moderate about that.
  6. Could you answer the question? Sure. You are consistent in your opinions and, consequently, not a LINO.
  7. Why aren’t prices going down? Could it be the persistent inflation is a function of the Democrat’s money party and not supply chain issues?
  8. I answered it. You just don't like the answer.
  9. Hello, Dave. I had acl and meniscus surgery in 2014. I was about 17. I started physical therapy THE DAY AFTER and he was BENDING MY KNEE! Oh, boy did that hurt! Anyways, I tore my acl and meniscus again in the same knee years ago. I would say at least 3-4 years ago it has been torn. I noticed it pops out and back in very, very easily and sometimes my knee locks or it just pops out and I have to pop it back into place. It doesn’t hurt anymore! It used to sting really bad. But I’m thinking if I just wear a nice knee brace, I can still go sky diving I’ll just inform the diver to give us a safe landing.

  11. I know that if (as an example) Trump were the one who was pro-choice, and the Democrats against, I'd weigh the damage that Trump could otherwise do very heavily against choice, because the country is a whole lot harder to put back together if its basic tenets are no longer generally respected (e.g. constitution, rule of law, law applying equally to everyone, depending on money of course) than if one thing that I find to be relatively heinous happens (state-by-state choice, which is the only really likely thing now). But each candidate would change the equation. And why do I say that? Because I hate those "make a choice so I can beat you up about it" questions. It's like asking someone if they've quit beating their kids yet, leaving no room between a swat and an actual beating. Wendy P.

    H5N1 warnings

    Thanks. And I might start masking in more crowded venues again; this is a farming area, with plenty of both dairy and meat cattle. Wendy P.
  13. Public health message - avian flu (H5N1) is now spreading to people via cows. There have only been two cases in humans so far, but so many cows have H5N1 that more spread is pretty much inevitable. A recent test by the FDA found H5N1 markers in 20% of the milk sold in the US. It probably can't spread via pasteurized milk, but it does indicate how widespread the infection is in bovine populations. The next concern is spread from cows to pigs, since pigs are so similar to humans that the virus will have no problem jumping over. And if it can spread pig to pig, it will likely be able to spread person to person. Nothing you can do really at this point but I would advise that people monitor the course of this disease very closely, so that if a new vector is identified (i.e. handling raw bacon) you can quickly take steps to protect yourself.
  14. I don’t think you’ve answered the question. Simple: given there won’t ever be a perfect solution on which side would you err?
  15. They are going to do as little as they can do to help Trump win the election. And all they really have to do is delay the trial until after the election, at which point Trump can declare a state of emergency and cancel trials.
  16. I have answered this many times. Perhaps your fellow democrat; Bill Burr can elucidate my position more clearly . . . but, you know he's just one of them thar "Kennedy Democrats."
  17. Provocation Fridays….. This is the group to ask… If you care to share.. Have you ever had an interesting dream about Cooper or gone on a Cooper inspired adventure? In your dreams have you ever met Cooper? Have you met someone that knew him, a stew, a pilot, an acquaintance of his, or hey - even a spirit …? Have you ever dreamed you solved the case and found Cooper or that missing clue? In your dreams have you ever talked about Cooper with a spouse, an acquaintance, a fellow Vortex member? Has anyone dreamed on one or multiple specific case details in an unusual manner? Have you ever had sequential Cooper dreams day after day? If you could direct your dream to focus on one aspect of the case what would it be? How do you interpret any of these dreams? I'm sure more of your than just myself have been haunted in their dreams by this case...This is all for fun.. if you care to share. .
  18. What, you sign off with it once and now are sensitive about it? Well, no offense, but it seems true to me although you can change my mind by answering post #468 in the Abortion Commentary thread.
  19. Media, i.e. the facts, have always been a thorn in the sides of dictators. ANYBODY who uses the term or statement: "I don't follow main stream media" . Has already bought into the circus of disinformation. Hitler wasn't the first and won't be the last mass murder-genocidal dictator. But his willingness to slaughter millions of lower "class" Jews, Gypsies, etc.set a new standard. IMO Putin is a better comparison for trump because both seek to be klepto-dictators.
  20. "Wow, Will Smith just smacked the shit out of me." Think you can use MINO in a few more posts?
  21. They did the same thing with the ballot eligibility case when they said ‘well couldn’t any state remove any candidate on a pretext?’ as if there were no possibility of serious judicial review. I guess they simply assume the state courts are as partisan, biased and corrupt as they are.
  22. Good job of jumping on a superb opportunity to MINOize an important and poignant treatment of a serious problem in America.
  23. Yep. So many similarities. It's also worth noting that Hugenberg, Hitler's Rupert Murdoch, favored a form of media warfare he called Katastrophenpolitik - "catastrophe politics." He welcomed the inflation caused by the sanctions in the Versailles agreement, believing that an economic disaster would awaken the "Teutonic furor" that would let Hitler become their savior. This became their goal, rather than an undesired outcome. A plan that had some international support at the time, the Dawes plan, would have significantly lowered the reparations that Germany had to pay to the rest of Europe, and solved much of their inflation problem. But Hugenberg realized that that would calm the waters, and would run contrary to the goals of Katastrophenpolitik. So Hugenberg worked to torpedo the Dawes plan, in the hopes that a return to the economic chaos of 1923 would end the Weimar Republic and allow a new leader to step into the vacuum. It worked and the plan was rejected. This also worked to make the current president (Hindenburg) look ineffective. Troy Nielhs on the border plan that would have beefed up border security: "Let me tell you, I’m not willing to do too damn much right now to help a Democrat and to help Joe Biden’s approval rating." Their enemy was, of course, the rest of the media, who insisted on reporting (for example) that the Dawes plan was a good deal for Germans. Hugenberg's response was to start launching attacks on the "mainstream" German media, calling them traitors, making accusations about editors having sex with Jews and Poles, calling them biased, and generally filling the media with attacks that the mainstream media was forced to respond to, instead of (for example) reporting on the Dawes plan. Steve Bannon, 2018: "“The real opposition is the media. And the way to deal with them is to flood the zone with shit.”
