I’ve never seen a better argument for downsizing the influence of the federal government as with saying the single person that occupies the White House can cause people such misery as to keep them up at night.

I can't imagine being so goddamned soft that you wake up every day fearing some elected official is going to make your life worse. Unless that official was banning or taxing, that dudes just another female sky screamer.

The FCC has been buying up frequencies and restricting access for years. HAM operators have been sounding the alarm, but no one was listening.

They’re listening now.

If we had stuck more closely to the country's original design it wouldn't typically matter that much who was president.

All of this comes back to what actually rules the day in 2020/21, feelings and emotions. Donald Trump could have shite gold and pissed the cure for Covid and those people would have still hated him because a majority of Americans are driven by feelings and emotions and lack any logic or reasoning skills. It is a sad state.


Yup. So we can...

1) Find a Republican that knows how to act nice, and still gives us a lot of Republican policies.

2) Find a Republican that gives us more Republican policies, but can't get elected, because they are mean and can't get enough support.

I think it's possible that we can develop candidates who have Trump's policies, but aren't raging lunatics. Those people can win. But if we keep faking ourselves into thinking this election is stolen, we will never develop those candidates.

What Bush policies pushed you to vote for him? Please be specific.


- I liked his tax policies. I was a 24yr old kid making damn good money and I thought he and the GOP would be my best choice to protect my paycheck. Now that I've gotten older and understand that it's "frick you money" they're really out to protect, my view has changed.

- I was recently out of the military and liked his foreign policy thoughts on the ME. I am still not allergic to military action when it's needed.

- Again, as a very young man, I thought social security offered bullshite growth and was supportive of privatization. I still am, under the right circumstances.

- I appreciated his message of American strength. I'll always appreciate American strength. I don't appreciate Trump's view of American strength which is, basically, frick the world, including allies.

- At the time, I supported the death penalty, which Gore was against.

- I was also a young guy in his 20's just getting out on his own who just happened to choose Fox News as my main news outlet each evening...it's how I kept up on national news. Needless to say, the propaganda I was being fed certainly played a role in how I voted.


Bush and the GOP lost me near the end of his tenure when it became abundantly clear that all of the bullshite about Iraq and WMD's were made up. Secondly, his idea that the constitution should be amended to define marriage...as a Republican voter, I was a strong believer in state power (and still am!), which was the exact opposite of what he was doing. Again, he proved himself to be full of shite.

It seems to bother you that people make decisions based on your own postings. Weird. Maybe you should actually pretend to be "centrist" if your leanings bother you so much.

Ruling by executive fiat is not a function of our constitutional government and yet the orange one skirts every fricking rule in the book to increase his power. Examples include naming acting secretaries to bypass congressional approval, diverting government money to executive projects (the wall), and making arms deals with foreign governments without congressional consent. He did all of this because Mitch McConnell didn't give one frick about keeping him in check.

Excuse me. Trump is just following the fad Obama set when it comes to executive action. If this really bothers you, go back to FDR and look at what he did...

It never bothered you people one bit when Obama used it.. Wonder why?

Below is an example of we will get now along with getting cozy again with Iran and China. And of course she is still on Twitter.

Most below was in college but has continued if only less blunt.

quote:

The woman President-elect Joe Biden intends to nominate as the assistant attorney general to head the Civil Rights Division of the Justice Department has said that black people are inherently superior to all other races.


quote:

“Black infants sit, crawl and walk sooner than whites,” Clarke wrote in a letter to the university’s student newspaper, The Crimson. She also referenced a theory that “human mental processes are controlled by melanin — that same chemical which gives blacks their superior physical and mental abilities.”

“Melanin endows blacks with greater mental, physical and spiritual abilities — something which cannot be measured based on Eurocentric standards,” Clarke wrote.

A rebuttal from the staff of The Crimson noted that Clarke’s discussion of the hot-button topic was way off, even by Harvard standards. “Rather than attack the questionable research and logic underlying ‘The Bell Curve,’ however, Clarke resorted to bigotry, pure and simple, to reach the opposite conclusion,” The Crimson’s editorial said.

The editorial said it was “sad that a Harvard student would think that one race is genetically superior to others. And it is almost inconceivable that this student would be an elected leader of Black students on campus.” “Students such as Kristen Clarke, who clearly cannot serve in their elected capacities as responsible spokespersons for their communities, have no place at the helm of student organizations like the BSA,” it said, adding that she should either retract her statements and apologize or quit the board of the group.

Clarke was later denounced for her support of an anti-Semitic speaker and Holocaust denier she helped bring to Harvard, whose theories she labeled “indisputable fact.”

But the real issue is not what a college student thought more than 25 years ago, Fox News host Tucker Carlson wrote in a commentary on Monday. “Kristen Clarke has never shed these views. They’ve simply become more sophisticated,” he said. “Just last year, Clarke was fighting for the crudest kind of racial discrimination in college admissions, saying it was ‘madness’ for the federal government to take the side of Asian applicants who had provably been denied college admission on the basis of their skin color,” Tucker wrote.

Clarke has used her Twitter account to speak out on race.

Abortion is murder so of course we are against it, but that’s for another thread



Responding just because i just read this story of 21 week baby

quote:

A resilient baby who was born at 21 weeks has defied a zero percent chance to live. Beating the unimaginable odds, the now-7-month-old is one of the youngest babies in the world to survive.

quote:

For neonatologist Dr. Stacy Kern, Richard was one of the youngest babies she cared for. “We know many NICUs around the world are not even resuscitating babies born at 22 weeks,” she said.

In the next few daunting weeks, Richard’s tiny body was attached to two ventilators so that he could keep breathing, but despite that, the little boy’s oxygen level began to decline.

Worrying for what would unfold next, Kern brought Elizabeth to Richard so that she could bid farewell to her baby. Unbeknownst to Kern and Elizabeth, as soon as the mom touched her son, things changed for the better.

“She puts her hand on him and all the sudden his oxygen saturation goes up to the 80s then 90s, and I look at her and go, ‘I guess he just needed his mom,’” Kern said. “It was one of the most incredible things I’ve ever seen. He just continued to surprise us day after day.”

The vast majority of people are brain dead sheep. Stop saying there is no proof. Just because people say that doesn’t mean it’s true. Project veritas has a mountain of video evidence and whistleblower evidence. All of it was completely ignored. Evidence is out there for the world to see if you want to find it. However, if you’re content with just taking the news media and some politicians’ word for it without making any effort on your own, then that’s on you. But don’t say there’s no evidence when that’s just 100% not true. No matter how many time you and other people say it, it doesn’t make it any less false.

There’s also 0 evidence of:
Biden / China backdoor deal
Biden / Ukraine deal
Hillary’s email server
Cuomo murdering the elderly
Ilhan Omar and her husband embezzling campaign funds and COVID relief funds.
Or a long list of Democrats pushing lockdowns caught doing whatever the frick they want

But remember:
Trump is a Russian plant
All Republicans & Conservatives are Q believers
And this country has a systematic racism problem
Especially cops, ALL of them hate black people

Some idiot psychos rush the capital and kill a security guard (OMFG All Republicans Are Insane and we need reprogramming). People attempt to seced from the union in Seattle and burn down a police station (Mostly Peaceful Protests). Hell look how much they downplayed both Scalise and Rand Paul getting physically hurt by crazy supporters of the left.

The problem is they will now make every Republican president look evil. They kind of did it with Bush, and look how they treated Romney and McCain (people which they later loved). I am not going to debate Trump was a psycho at times, but it's a winning formula for the media to portray Republicans as crazy nut jobs.
