    [** Official President Joe Biden Thread **]

    It was a pretty coherent, excellent speech IMO. I don’t think your description quite does it justice. Was there a specific point he made that you take issue with?

    [** Official President Joe Biden Thread **]

    I don’t agree with your overall assessment of Joe Biden’s mental acuity. Did you watch his speech from a few days ago? It was very sharp. He’s not being puppeted. He’s still the guy in charge, and very bright and very alert.

    Aaron Rodgers: great quarterback, conspiracy minded idiot.

    The problem with your argument is that in the case of a public health crisis, your decisions may put others at risk.

    What's up with the illegal Jewish tunnels under NYC?

    I don’t believe that the vast majority of Trump supporters are racist. If I ever wrote that, in anger, then I apologize. I don’t believe Republicans are bad people either.

    Yes but not me. And you know this because I have paid you in the past. If you don’t want to make the bet because you’re afraid you might be wrong, fine. But don’t offer whiny excuses like you think I might not pay you.

    Ray Epps....Zero days in Prison

    Hopefully he wins his lawsuits against Fox and Tucker Carlson. Guys an idiot but the right wing media ruined whatever’s left of his life with their bogus conspiracy theories (which I see you have sucked right up like the bootlicker you are.)

    [** Official President Joe Biden Thread **]

    A lot of the criticism against Joe Biden in this forum is, IMO, unwarranted and over the top. But not this issue. It’s inexplicable. How could he not know his Secretary of Defense was in the hospital? How could he not know, apparently until today, that it was prostrate cancer? it’s a total fockup and Biden’s critics are having a field day. And for once it’s well-deserved.

    What's up with the illegal Jewish tunnels under NYC?

    I honestly have no idea. I know very little about Hasidic Jews beyond a couple of novels that I have read (The Chosen and The Promise, both by Chaim Potok. Actually these are two of the finest novels I have ever read. But they don’t mention secret tunnels.)

    Forget about Covid for the moment, and look at the even bigger picture: there’s going to be another pandemic someday, even worse. Whenever that happens we need to listen to the public health experts and follow their guidance. If we begin by thinking that they’re liars and part of a conspiracy, we’re truly focked.

    Maiden is a band I never really loved but their cover art is top notch.

    Not even close. Khan was just a brilliant ruthless general. Nothing like Stalin or Hitler. Pol Pot and Mao come closer.

    Stalin is the only man in history that might be worse than Hitler.

    What? You wrote “Jack’s cases aren’t going nowhere”. Grammatically inept but we all get your meaning. Apparently you don’t have the courage of your convictions.
  15. Since so many of you are making the same argument I will respond to all of you at once: we need an organized, comprehensive approach to this issue. I am definitely not in favor of the chaotic situation as it now stands. But I also completely reject the draconic solutions being proposed by conservatives. I think most of you guys are being reactionary and not truly considering the long term consequences of your ideas. And nobody, not conservatives or liberals, is spending any time at all trying to examine the essential question here: why are so many people coming? What economic and climate situations are creating such instability in other parts of the world that millions of people risk their lives to get to this country? Until we are willing to address that problem, nothing we do is ever going to alleviate the current situation.

  17. Trump up to his old Birther ways again- this time the target is Nikki Haley: https://news.yahoo.com/trump-reposts-conspiracy-theory-questioning-200300783.html And yet there are people here who continue to insist that Donald Trump isn’t a bigot.

    I will wager you $1000 right now that Jack’s Jan 6 case against Donald Trump will be tried prior to this years election and Trump will be found guilty and convicted of at least one felony. Deal?
  19. No it isn’t. This isn’t what I want.

    If everyone you like and respect dislikes me I will wear that as a badge of honor. Thank you.

    Ray Epps was an idiot, an awful guy who deserved his slap on the wrist, nothing more. However, and as a separate issue, his life has been ruined by the crazy conspiracy theories surrounding him. Last I heard he was suing Tucker Carlson and Fox News for the crap they have spread (which apparently guys like @HellToupee are still lapping up.) Here’s hoping he ends up with lots of money.

    I’ve never tried to get you to like me, Supermike. I’m pretty sure if you did I’d be doing something wrong. I also have no doubt CDub is in many ways a good dude. When he posts about issues other than this one, I have no problem with it. As it happens, rather ironically, he and I even enjoy some of the same novels (based on the book review thread.) But I confess that as a Jew I have trouble getting past his suspicion and dislike of Jews. And as someone who had several family members perish in the Holocaust (and both my dad and grandparents were survivors) I am deeply offended by anyone who is a Holocaust denier, as CDub professes himself to be.

    Liberalism Explained

    Liberalism represents the rejection both of extreme leftism and extreme rightism, and especially a rejection of populism and nationalism , bigotry and xenophobia. Liberalism is synonymous with freedom and the American experience.

    Aaron Rodgers: great quarterback, conspiracy minded idiot.

    Rodgers will always be thought of as a great quarterback, just as Eric Clapton is a great guitarist, Van Morrison a great singer, Roger Waters a great songwriter, and Elon Musk a great visionary. In these terms all 5 of them have legacies that will forever be secure. But all 5 have also ruined their reputations by rejecting science. And the more they are celebrated by wacko conspiracy minded MAGA types, the more the majority of the population who are not wacko look at them askance.

    Not one of you is willing to call out this dude’s blatant hatred of Jews. Mainly, I suspect, because he claims to be a conservative (though he’s really not one.) If CDub100 was a leftist you guys would be jumping with the anti-semitism label: ,
