    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.
  2. 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.

  4. 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?
  6. No it isn’t. This isn’t what I want.

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

    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: ,

    This economy is so bad

    During the 2020 campaign, Trump also predicted that a Biden victory would immediately cause an economic collapse. Trump doesn’t offer “honesty”; he simply makes sh!t up. And he’s not like other politicians; he’s uniquely awful.

    I heard a tape of exactly what Trump said.

    You keep making yourself look worse.

    Just amazing that you can make one insipid comment after another and then call anyone else a fool. Like rain on your wedding day.

    “I appreciate his honesty”. ”Trump says what’s on his mind”. This is also incredibly infuriating. There has never been a bigger liar on the political stage in this country. It’s not even close. Other politicians, both Democrat and Republican, lie all the time, but Trump has taken it to a new art form, the fact that you guys constantly excuse this as him saying “what’s on his mind” is one of the biggest puzzles in the last 10 years. It’s pathetic and embarrassing, for those of you that do it.

    This economy is so bad

    I will repeat: I agree with you that there were Democratic politicians hoping for bad things to happen in 2020. They’re awful people. Trump says it openly; he’s worse. I don’t understand why you can’t condemn these comments without having to bring up whataboutisms. It’s infuriating.

    This economy is so bad

    I remember it too and I condemned it. Anyone who hopes for people to be hurt is an awful person, full stop. Trump is worse though because he’s the candidate

    Our economy is not close to collapsing. Hoping for it to do so is sick and disgusting. Honesty has nothing to do with it (though I truly doubt Donald Trump even knows the meaning of the word.)

    This economy is so bad

    Trump hopes the economy crashes sooner rather than later so that he won’t be blamed like Herbert Hoover: https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4396467-trump-says-he-hopes-economy-crashes-in-next-12-months-i-dont-want-to-be-herbert-hoover/amp/ Just when you think he couldn’t be a bigger jackass…
  22. You think it’s “the truth” to make fun of John McCain not being able to lift his arms due to the torture he suffered as a POW? Or is it “the truth” to make fun of Joe Biden’s stuttering, a life long affliction which many people struggle to conquer? Or is it “what’s actually going on” to mock Paul Pelosi for getting beaten up by a deranged MAGA lunatic? Never mind, I needn’t ask. Of course you do.

    Sopranofellas

    Never heard that but I know that Steven Van Zandt was the first choice.
  24. Im not in love with either guy but in this particular debate Musk is the one who looks like a fool. Cuban is only representing common sense.

    If you are a male that dates a biological man, are you gay?

    Oh don’t get me wrong. I will always defend your right to be a rude bastard. But I will defend my right to call you out for being one.
