I asked a source who is well informed,
Seymour Hersh is a blowhard trying to stay relevant by claiming special knowledge. Again.

Being that Iran has a defensive military doctrine with no means to project any military power, how exactly were you kids going to live under their boots?
Unless I'm misreading that's sarcasm.
It works and makes you wonder because it's so damned accurate.

This was a colossal miscalculation that Trump made coming off the high of the Venezuela raid.
That wouldn't surprise me a bit. That was high risk/high reward and it went as close to perfectly as a military operation can go. Really impressive all the way around.
But they don't always go that way, and Iran is looking closer to Somalia in '93 than Venezuela.

What I think he’s saying is that the two political parties are so diametrically opposed, with one of them heading straight into a gay version of Mordor. So, in this type of environment, listening to you goons cry about blowing up fishing boats or dropping bombs on the Middle East like I’m pretty sure every president since I’ve been born has done, is exhausting.
That's a long way to say "stop talking about things I don't want you to talk about."

I see no mention of a terrorist state developing nukes. Why?
Maybe because that was taken care of in 2025.
Unless it wasn't, then you've got a credibility issue.

Do you agree with your party's leaders who are screaming for college students and athletes to boycott your favorite university in the Southeast?
Sounds kind of communist'ish to me -
The definition of communism is not "anything I don't like".

You're apparently here to discuss people, as most of your posts have nothing to do with policy.

It’s unusually low
You have data for this or just a claim and an explanation of what you think happened?

But voters were so unenthused about Massie,
If turnout was 25% voters weren't enthused about either one of them, but I'm still trying to figure out what your point is regarding money. Money was dumped into this race, apparently a lot of "outside" money. That's true whether turnout was 25% or 90%.
A quick look at Georgia shows that their GOP primary turnout was about 25% too. Given our turnout for presidential elections it wouldn't surprise me if that's pretty normal for a primary but that's just an educated guess. Do you know that it's unusually low?

Why are some of you okay with this?
This is a rhetorical question, right?
quote:
Money was absolutely dumped into the race.
Yes, it was.
You still never said why turnout matters. What difference does it make if turnout was 25% or 50%?
quote:
What else are you implying here
Exactly what I said, and I never claimed that money wins political races. I specifically used the word “influence”; would you like to argue that money doesn’t influence political races?
quote:
If dumping money in to a race is the reason why someone wins,
You'll have to address something I actually said in order for me to give you a response.

I don't understand the persistence of this myth.

blaming a third-party, whether it be AIPAC, or anyone else, is ridiculous in a situation where voter turnout was less than 25%.
What difference does turnout make? Money was dumped into the race or it wasn't. I guess next time Soros drops some coin to influence a race we'll get the same reaction.
:lol:
Nah.

So until we go back to an electorate that resembles early America, we have to work within the confines of massive debt.
But we should be working to change that. Some people are, most people aren't.
If the alternative is "frick it, the Federal Government is Santa Claus and we'll never run out of money" then it really doesn't matter who you vote for from a fiscal perspective.

Win what? That super-special prize basket at the silent auction has some tasty Immigration Enforcement Candy but it's also got a $2 bottle of "$1.5 Trillion Deficits" fortified wine.
It's a package deal. The people who pretend it's all champagne & chocolate are no more sane than the ones who think Trump is an existential threat.
