"The Democratic Party is wanting people to depend on the government for everything" That must be why they want to raise the minimum wage, right? Also, how is that totally non-welfare Medicare treating you?
"Between 65,000-100,000 women are raped each year. Yeah, it actually is a lot like thunderdome . I'd much rather they stood a better chance at fending off the rapist or killing him than getting raped and/or killed." Hi, Mario! This is real…
Hell, give me three that happened in the past year. I'll get the popcorn. (Note: the statement is "most were prevented" -- so Mario is on the hook here; he should easily be able to provide evidence of more mass shootings prevented, than ma…
"feeding their on people starving in Africa" Just piling on here: almost all black Americans' families have been on US soil for 150 years or (often far) more. Can you say the same? Can I take a bet on that?
" have been praying for the people of this country that they will see what a fool Sleepy Joe Biden and his party are all about." So you spend time petitioning an all-knowing, all-powerful, all-good entity, who created you and knows your ev…
"The overwhelming majority of gun violence is inner city assholes" Just say black, you chickenshit. You know that's what you mean, I know that's what you mean, DOGS know that's what you mean. Grow a pair.
Most people that drive cars without a license don't cause any accidents. Therefore, drivers licenses are a Communist infringement on our freedoms and should be abolished.
@hedo: "just a bunch of twisted Liberal garbage coming out of Sacramento California" Are you trying to say that my comments are worthless because I live in Sacramento? Because that would be the most hilarious and pathetic attempt at ad hom…
ECHO chamber. ECHO chamber. This is not rocket science. This is not some both-sides bullshit. What is left in and of the Republican party is full of idiots, whether congenital or willful.
Never encountered hump before today, and I must say, I am shocked. An entitled, clueless, privileged, retirement-age white misanthrope with a tenuous grasp of his only language turns out to be conservative? Tell me it ain't so.
Oh yes, it's BIDEN that is being divisive. It's the DEMOCRATS that have been obstructionist. Get that weak shit out of here. Nobody is falling for it anymore.
@Hedo2forus: No, sorry, bzzt, you (Republicans/conservatives) don't get to do this, you hypocrite. You don't get to pretend you care about military service record, drug use, breaking the law, family values, corruption, nepotism or lack of…
"This is a one party legislative branch until 2022. That's why Biden is going balls to the wall in a liberal's dream come true. I think Harris and Biden will lay the groundwork to destroy democracy and facilitate a Socialistic government.…
"President Trump did in fact propose giving the BLM 1.2 billion dollars in 2020. " How, exactly, was that going to happen? I've never heard of such a thing, I can't find any news of it... do you mind if I call bullshit? I have a pretty per…
He intended to lose in 2016. His pride would not be able to take actually losing after winning once at this point. And yes, by 2024 he will have deteriorated much further -- he obviously is still on the Adderall train, with Benzos to take…
Oh, it has been tried before. Anyone here heard of conservapedia? Go look, it's fucking hilarious. One thing to note: they boast 800M page views, total, lifetime. Actual Wikipedia gets that every time you fart.
Her mom was the victim of an EXCELLENT jab by a black female private security guard, after her mom called that guard the n-word, and told her that "they" should all die. The security guard has, of course, been suspended without pay. What w…
No no no... the original premise of QAnon (proven to be bullshit done by a few redditors for clicks ages ago, by the way) was that Trump was going to expose the cannibal pedophile cabal. So his call to arms leading up to, and especially si…
"Cause obviously it was a trump supporter that did it lol" So you are saying a liberal carved TRUMP in the back of a manatee as a false-flag operation? This is what you are saying? You, as a sentient being and presumed self-sufficient adul…
"How will violence change anything? It won’t work." They don't agree. The vet who was shot on the 6th did not agree. Most of the Trump supporters here have non-stop masturbatory violent seditious fantasies. They're not going to stop. Deep…
"you will never know where the got the covid. could also be new years parties at their homes. who knows" "Condoms break, so people that practice safe sex can catch AIDS no matter what. That's why it was totally okay for these people who ba…
What they proved (again) is who the real terrorists are. They stormed the legislature with guns, zip-ties for taking hostages, and Molotov cocktails. This was a fucking insurrection, and the instigators of it should be treated as such.
A manatee was found in Florida with "TRUMP" carved into its back. So the answer to the original question is "fuck no".
First, Trump didn't create anything. Second, Parler has already been kicked off AWS. Now it's ParlOr. I bet there's not quite 76,000,000 people on that puppy. Let's see how long it lasts.
Sure, in and of itself it is excessive. But these guards did not have long-range non-lethal options. Also keep in mind that they nobody was shot when they broke down the front door. Nobody was shot when they busted through a police line in…
"It was ANTIFA & B L M that attacked the Capital building." That statement is so fucking stupid it should qualify as performance art and get a government grant. Fun game to play with the kids, by the way: any pictures of the Capitol protes…
"I saw a retired black policeman in St Louis get murdered by BLM." No, liar, you saw a pawn shop rent-a-cop get shot by looters during a BLM protest. Also, your entire argument boils down to "cops are allowed to be criminals, because crimi…
I think we're way past that now. The ACA gave 20M+ people health insurance. No death panels, no shortages, nothing. Sure, believing the right-wing media bullshit and being aggressively uncurious about how every other country manages to do…
"I didn’t expect [...] anything like what happened today in DC." Trump has been working to delegitimize it for a year. He and his "lawyers" have been bleating instance conspiracy bullshit for 3 months. He called for this protest. He called…
sappho: ...gives quite lengthy grade-A book report... 2out: (taking a momentary pause from eating paste) "NEEEERD"! Do you realize how glaring it has become that Trump supporters (outside of a few obviously mentally ill individuals spewing…
@sn1987a: "I sincerely hope the Republican party goes down hard and that it shrinks so much that you can drown it in a bathtub." You win one Internets for the Norquist reference I am sure not a single conservative here actually caught.
"There you go again Gandhi. You simply cannot go five minutes without some sort of anti Trump comment. I dont care what you deny. You DO beat off to Rachel Maddow." You don't have a clue about Gandhi's policies. You have never watched Rach…
@tbrmskss: "Medicare for all is a good idea. But abolishing all private insurance is not the way to get there." Why not? "Support he does not have." Poppycock. Medicare for all has overwhelming support. 47% of Republicans support it, for c…
"I'd be more interested in little miss lipstick (aoc) being president than biden." Good God, still with the pathetic misogynistic belittling bullshit? She holds two degrees (both summa cum laude, by the way). I don't. Do you? Trump had to…
"Alas, he probably likes it that we give his posts any attention at all." You don't have HFT blocked? I highly recommend it. At some point, that level of malignant stupidity only grates your soul and undermines your faith in humanity.
Distraction attempt #1: "Perhaps they just misunderstood the Capital for a CVS or a Nike store. How many of those were looted or burned and no one even shrugged, not even a little bit." Zero to one, and zero to one, respectively. Oh, wait,…
@sappho: looking at Trump's tweets about the planned Jan 6th protests, he should be charged with sedition. For that matter, so should the Texas AG for his lawsuit and the 100+ Republican congresscritters who signed on to it.
"Ford/Nixon" That was an unprecedented pre-emptive one, intended to discourage prosecution. Many doubt that it would have stood up in court if it had been tested.
Pardons have been on the take for white-collar crime for ages. Sure, Rich did some shady stuff, but he was not the worst, not the only one, and not even the worst one pardoned (c.f. Ollie North, for example). Hell, Clinton pardoned his bro…
Oh, and to you and yours, of course... MERRY NEWYEAR!
Oh, I am used to the snide, ignorant JAQing off -- this was a special occasion on account of the hilarious lack of reading comprehension.
"Especially where there are photos of him embracing black people. Perhaps you can tell us how any racist worth their salt is able to do that." That's... novel. No, seriously. Never heard that one from any denialist. I think it's also the s…
If you're going to try to sound all haughty and clever by asking a half-dozen derisive questions, some friendly advice: if every single one of them shows you didn't even understand what was said, it falls kind of flat. Maybe stay in your l…
Keep in mind that for most conservatives, the outrage is almost always fake. For genuine outrage you need principles and values, and at this point American conservatives have proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that they have neither.
@erotic: don't be so sure. Once the foreclosures start, there'll be another flood of people seeking to rent...
Yeah, you're right... HD is not that great of an example in that sense. It does illustrate very well how a lot of China's reprisal tariffs were quite symbolic rather than punitive though.
Let's count the levels of stupid: 1. Objecting to the spending he objected to is dumb. Including most of the foreign aid. 2. The reasons he gave for it were even dumber (they'll buy weapons with it NOT FROM US). 3. The biggest numbers were…
I'll have to look that up. Yikes. I also just found out he's been a vocal Trump supporter. Fuck him.
As a landlord I agree with the sentiment, but you just can't do that right now -- millions and millions of people would have become homeless this year.
Collins? What about Hunter? What about the Blackwater dude who murdered 17 Iraqis?
Also, AndrewRobin, if science is so silly and wrong, I presume that you will not be partaking of any of those silly science-produced vaccines? And that if you were to get sick, you would not go to one of those silly science-based hospitals…
(Never mind, you were talking Presidents -- and hell yes on LeBron, but apparently, he's supposed to shut up and dribble, right?)
There's a lot to like about Brown (voted against the Iraq war, wants Glass-Steagall back, etc.) -- he'd be my model member of Congress if he weren't a blind AIPACish supporter of Israel and if he wasn't such an idiot about tariffs. As for…
"It will never end! Shut down everything again and follow all orders! Trust science! This is almost comedy to me at this point." Countries that have locked down early and thoroughly have had fewer deaths. Deaths have gone up wherever restr…
"Russia actually has continuing control over some of the networks it has penetrated to an extent that may require their dismantling and replacement to fix rather than some sort of software patch" That's just shitty reporting. All machines…
You're right, of course... I guess I just don't get the attraction of/to revolvers. It's probably me, I have the same thing with steam engines. snark ducks runs
"Now as far as UC versus Alabama or Florida and respect. I am not so sure of that." Fair enough, can't say much for man in the street -- all I can tell you is that when I was involved in hiring, the only US universities from which a degree…
"Trump is threatening to veto the CV19 bill. I can actually agree with him at a high level. It is not enough. " It is heartwarming to see Trump concerned with the little people. I mean, it's not like he and Jared have been aggressively wor…
"the only damage done was that Chinese citizens paid more for some goods from the US and the US citizens paid more for some goods from China" Umm no, not really. Several businesses moved production out of the US because of the tariff war (…
What the hell is it with Pythons anyway? I see a few available locally, but holy hell, they want more for them than custom SiGs. Did Trump tweet out that they're his favorite or something?
Let's also all keep in mind that in many, many cases, these are the same people using the same machines using the same procedures and rules as they did in 2018, and in 2016. Everything is the same except one thing: Trump, and thus they, do…
There's all kinds of common ground if you really think about it. There should be, but there isn't. There really hasn't been for at least 40 years, if ever. Trump has just brought it to the fore. Half of the people who voted for Trump suppo…
@sappho: Kasich sounded reasonable in that field of loons, and he is very, very good at being public about his more popular/centrist opinions and record. But keep in mind he is still an anti-abortion, anti-environment, anti-labor, anti-LGB…
That's how pork works, and that's how the system works. Just here though. Most important and shocking to me is that the Republicans didn't get their COVID business indemnification through. That's the one they really wanted and holy shit, D…
Random aside: nowhere else is there such disparity between colleges, and such a big "where are you going to go" push. That there are universities one can't get into without essentially a 4.0/A/10 out of 10 perfect record across the board i…
"Any class where the problems solution is longer than the problem, was a problem!" Differential equations and LA are not the worst at that by a LONG shot. The final for the highest level math I took was a third of a page with 3 lines: 1. P…
Can we start with the Blackwater mass murderer that Trump just pardoned?
"What’s not to like me about those two in those positions?" "I can’t imagine opposition at this point to any of these three voices." Buttigieg and Harris are FAR, FAR from progressive and not the first choice in their positions for any pro…
And to clarify: none of that was opinion. All easily verified fact.
To clarify... Republicans in the late 70s-early 80s realized demographics would permanently make them a minority. They went to big business for money in exchange for deregulation, and to evangelicals for the wedge issues to have people vot…
"Is our govt in general. The way it works. Or should I say the inneficient way it works." As you realize and hint at, yeah, it's awful -- the worst way to do things, except for all the other ways. Case in point: Medicare -- everybody slags…
"Go ahead erotic. Let the usual windbag in you loose. Tell me how im half wrong. All wrong. Impress the forums with all your critical thinking and indepth insights into the world around you. Let us see how you shine down on these forums an…
Biggest WTFs in that ranking: Nixon's domestic accomplishments -- Obama's ability to compromise and leadership -- Reagan's integrity and foreign policy accomplishments (seriously, wtf)
What to get out of a Democratic majority in the Senate? Binding legislation to re-enter the Paris accord and the Iran deal, repeal of Trump's tax cuts, binding limits on the executive branch's power, reinstatement of Glass-Steagall (a man…
They're not armed to the teeth to actually have a revolution -- these are wannabe brownshirt chickenshits. Threaten people online? Sure. Show up armed to an elected official's home? Sure. Bring guns to a protest? Sure. I'm sure some will s…
"Antifa, aren't those the people who burn buildings?" No, they're not. "Antifa, aren't those the people who tear down statues such as George Washington, and Abraham Lincoln among others?" No, they're not. "Antifa, aren't those the people w…
"we med types now measure obesity in WHO impoverished-child 'body weights' - the average 6 yr old weighs in @ less than 30lbs. So if you are 30lbs over your a '1', 60lbs a '2', 90lbs a '3', and on." Sweet Jebus, that is wrong on so many le…
mb6666, hate to burst your bubble of abject narcissism here, but not everyone who views your profile wants to fuck you. Apparently I wasn't clear before, so let me rephrase: even if you were mewling at our door in heat, even if you were as…
Maybe I didn't explain this well enough. Let me try again. For your concealed-carry legal gun to help you when being targeted by a robber, rapist or murderer, the following things have to be true: - The attacker does not have a gun. If he…
@8inch: oh come on, thug is not a loaded term and he didn't mean anything by it. Just like when he went from "thug" to "gang banger" in there. Completely neutral language!
Socialist implies everyone got some. More like several trillion in swampy-swamp handouts to his donors.
Now, as for the OP (2/2): "No fraud ballots can be added to the vote in the middle of the night from a garbage can." If the garbage can is before the ballot is validated: no fraudulent ballots would be added this way, because the ballot wo…
Now, as for the OP (1/2): "STOP THE PRESSES of ballots. PRINT NEW NUMBERED BALLOTS" Yes, those are right next to each other. "PRINT NEW NUMBERED BALLOTS for each County equal to the number of registered voters." Are you implying that more…
@moe: To put it another way: you can't fix stupid.
As for taking legal guns away, Congress could pass a thousand laws to do so, but all of them would be laughed out of court. To take legal guns away, you would need a constitutional amendment -- and I don't see 38 (or is it 39?) states rati…
$100 won't get you a computer or many curriculum text books, and even if it did, show me a Martin Luther King Boulevard on which you could buy either. Yet that money will easily get you a worn-out cop surplus 92F, or shitty .38 snub, as lo…
I keep meaning to mention this... the entire Rittenhouse episode, in just a few crucial seconds, shows the exact systemic problem. Really, it's just a few seconds: youtu. be/Q5AvEmFPq1g?t=180 The entire video is worth watching to get a ful…
“ how about a walk on a Sunday afternoon in CENTRAL PARK, N Y C? A thug attacks you, wants to rape your wife and beat you down. Do you call a SOCIAL WORKER or give the Guy a .45 caliber VASCETOMY? Tell us what you would do, you have a conc…
"the two crazy Democratic candidates for Senate" Why are they crazy? Not asking for much, just one example for each will do just fine.
So you are now implying that you are not actually incoherent, but that it is a matter of my reading comprehension? I'll take that Pepsi challenge. If anyone can explain to me what your past two comments actually meant, I'll apologize. By t…
Okay, I admit it -- your abject incoherence has me fascinated, and holds me back from blocking you. To wit: "your HER bait already has you on ignore" What does that mean? Who has me on ignore? "why you're here rudely begging hot women like…
"I have two different opinions on this. On one hand, this couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of people. The NFL makes me sick with their BLM (Burn, Loot, Murder) virtue signalling, and I really don't care about whiny millionaires." 1. Burn L…
" 'Mad cow' is a prion disease. These are poorly understood." Not really, we have a pretty good understanding how they work and spread. It is just that we don't really have predictive models, cures or vaccines for them, or even viable aven…
"What a gasbag." JW why someone so obviously arguing in bad faith is still allowed to do so.
"I have been unable to even find a single filed case where fraud was alleged. The 44ish cases filed by the Trump Campaign legal team are all looking to get votes tossed on technicalities of process, not fraud." I was about to say the same…
"so CO means with HER, who you have out for RENT? now you can afford the blue pill and close your 'go fuck her' page" What the blue fuck? None of that is even half an actual fucking sentence. "Its all good mate" No mate, it's not. Your bra…
"It has a pic of the business end of a revolver with the words below it." "I'm to [sic] old to run" May I suggest 'too old to spell'?
If going through 8's article is too much work, here's a link from that article to the already classic attempt at an interview by Lou frickin' Dobbs with Caron. It's all about the food trucks, baby! youtube. com/watch?v=tDEUUK6yRBY
"Did you see the state hearings recently on those channels?" The ones where Guliani can't stop farting? Those are not actual hearings. Do you know what the difference is?
Am I the only one who doesn't have 6666 on their ignore list already?
