The Real timschochet

Except for the convicted felon you voted for and all the violent felons he pardoned right? Yeah sure. Get the fock out of here with this bullsh!t. Follow our laws. Don’t make me laugh.

You think they were coming to deport Ohtani?

Unless they’re undocumented Catholics, amirite?

This doesn’t work either. God you isolationist fockers are even worse than @Hardcore troubadour and his “blow everything up” bullsh!t. We are not an island here. Everything that happens out there in the world affects us. There’s no way to change that. Our oceans don’t protect us and neither will walls. You are a globalist whether you like it or not. We all are. Get your head out of the focking sand and deal with it,

Nice try what? My point is that you’re a moron. You haven’t exactly disproven it. You look for the simplest solution every time. It’s your kind of thinking that has gotten us into trouble every time. Unfortunately Trump is a moron too.

Who is Mila Joy? Is she related to Serena Joy?

The question is ignorant. It’s like asking who are the good guys between Protestants and Catholics. The answer is both and neither.

Lazy and ignorant again.

Link to the liberal, here or elsewhere, who accused anyone opposed to helping Ukraine as being unpatriotic?

Many of us did. And many of the same people who are huge MAGA fans now referred to anyone who questioned that war as unpatriotic: Sean Hannity, Mark Levin, Dennis Prager, etc.

I was curious about this because I suspected you were right. You mostly are: Literacy rate: Iran: 90% Iraq: 20% Afghanistan: 40% But you’re wrong, to my surprise, about Palestine: there the literacy rate is 97%!! It’s important also to note that Iranians, unlike most of the Middle East, are not Arabic. They are in fact the original Aryans. And their resentment against the USA goes back decades (ever since the CIA overthrew their democratically elected President, Mossedagh, and installed the Shah.) These distinctions are important because too many Americans, like @Hardcore troubadour and, I strongly suspect, our President, know nothing about the history, nothing about the differences between Iranian and Arab or Sunni and Shia, and nothing about the geopolitical complexities of the situation. Which is both pathetic and scary as hell.

You completely ignored my point or refused to respond to it. I certainly don't ageee with your analysis of Obama but what’s the use of debating his actions now? My accusation was that you think we can just bomb Iran and walk away. Let me offer you a bunch of reasons we can’t: 1. Iran could close the Strait of Hormuz. That would force us to invade to protect Saudi Arabia. 2. Iran may have sleeper terrorist cells in this country or elsewhere ready to strike Americans. 3. China gets most of its oil from Iran. Do you think it can afford to allow a destabilizing of Iran’s regime, any more than we could afford the same to Saudi Arabia? 4. Russia is pledged to the military defense of Iran. So far they have been quiet with Israel attacking. Will they stay quiet if we attack? Who knows? NONE of this is an argument against bombing. Maybe we should. Maybe we should wait. I have no idea. I suspect very strongly that Trump doesn’t either. But for you to act like the internet tough guy and pretend we can just do this without any consequences is so asinine and so stupid, it’s amazing even for you.

You seem to believe that we can just bomb the crap out of Iran and then it’s over, end of story, end of our involvement and we don’t have to concern ourselves with Iran any longer. That’s incredibly dumb and short sided.

Lolololol sure. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/25/us/politics/trump-money-plane-crypto.html https://www.forbes.com/sites/danalexander/2025/03/31/how-truth-social-and-crypto-helped-donald-trump-double-his-fortune-in-just-one-year/ https://www.opensecrets.org/trump/trump-properties What a joke you are.

This is a great list. Add Huntington and Newport in the south, Yosemite in the north. Don’t miss Napa Valley. You’re headed to the most beautiful state in the union. And the greatest.

Better year for albums. Actually it’s the greatest year for albums ever: Led Zeppelin IV Whos Next Sticky Fingers Hunky Dory Tapestry Blue Every Picture Tells A Story LA Woman …just to name a few.

Are you really looking for a “told you so” in THIS thread? How embarrassing for you. To answer your question: it aged very well. I wrote that because I thought higher of the American people than they demonstrated. They were fooled by a con man. Next time they won’t be.

You make good points here. But I think your overall position is too isolationists. There are things we want and don’t want: We want: A nuclear free, democratic Iran, willing to peacefully trade with their neighbors and the rest of the world. That is the ideal. (Since this would radically improve the lives and prosperity of almost all Iranians, they should want this too.) We don’t want: Iran retaliating to our strike by closing the Strait of Hormuz (make no mistake that would force us to invade Iran.) Or sending terrorists around the world or here to strike at the USA or Americans. As I wrote earlier there are serious risks either way here and this is a tough decision.

Best of luck!

He is. Unlike @HellToupee and @Tree of Knowledge. That being said, I suspect in real life @Hardcore troubadour is probably a decent guy despite some of the stuff he has written here (not talking about his political views, I’m talking about his wishing bad things on peoples’ families- I doubt he would do that or even think that in real life.) His problem, IMO, is that he wants to look at the world in black and white terms without nuance or shades of grey. This flaw runs through most of his posts.

Works for me.

That will never happen. Your kind of ugly bigotry will never disappear but it will also never take hold of this country.

You’re wading into a cesspool of ugly bullsh!t here.

Your description of Gaines is accurate.

And? Seems pretty likely to me. She’s also a huge whiner. Blaming others for her own mediocrity.
