The Real timschochet

Actually, although the Kochs aren’t Jewish, (so far as I know) I still always feel a whiff of anti-semitism whenever I hear liberals attacking them. The theme behind these sort of attacks, whether from right or left, is that there is this small group of wealthy individuals who control events. The Rothschilds, the Kochs, Sheldon Adelson, George Soros, etc. Big banks, big business. Whenever this stuff comes up, Jew hating isn’t far behind IMO.

I didn’t love them or hate them. It’s lazy of you to make such assumptions.

The next President and Congress who seriously attempts to deal with our national debt will be the first ones to do so.

Stifle? Who are you, Edith Bunker ?

I think you make some interesting points, particularly about diesel and lithium in Afghanistan (the latter I was, to be honest, completely unaware of and I’d like to learn more about.) Of course per usual these good points are surrounded by some very convoluted, really bizarre arguments. And I think your overall POV is way off but that’s no surprise. My questions were honestly posed and I appreciate the responses even if I disagree. Some of them having given me food for thought, particularly RLLD and yourself. For which I thank you. I have no intention of gaslighting anyone or trying to get anyone banned, even you.

https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2020/09/trump-americans-who-died-at-war-are-losers-and-suckers/615997 Has Biden come close to disrespecting the military as much as Trump, who calls those who lost their lives fighting our wars losers and suckers?

Is Trump your kinda guy?

1. I assume I do. I don’t ask. 2. Maybe. Again I don’t ask.

Bellowing? I’ve got no problem with the Kochs. They’re free to spend money as they like. So is George Soros. I’m not a conspiracy theory numbnut.

Yes. Very much so. But I doubt my solution is the same as yours. I want to help both groups. I don’t have priorities.

Trump just sent out another fund raising email. Come on you slackers! The Don needs your cash. You know you want to send it.

Like we should.

I’ve never seen anyone more obsessed with homosexuality than @League Champion. In every post in every thread. I wish he would get a room some guy and be done with it.

All your hidden desires in one post.

Feed them. House them. Give them papers so that they are no longer illegal. There is no other workable solution to this issue.

1. I do not believe we can lower the price of gas by producing more gas. Inevitably this is the conservative argument, but most experts on this subject disagree with it. The rebuttal by these experts is that if we produce more gas, Saudi Arabia will respond by producing less, so as to keep the price stable or high. I have never heard a good response from conservatives to this rebuttal. 2. But even if it were true that we could lower gas prices by producing more gas, I don’t believe we should, because man made climate change is upon us sooner than we thought, it’s a calamity, and we shouldn’t make it even worse.

Two questions: 1. if the rate of inflation is lower here than it is in Europe and the rest of the world, why should Joe Biden be blamed for the rate of inflation? 2. If the price of gas is lower here than it is in Europe and the rest of the world, why should Joe Biden be blamed for the price of gas?

What’s wrong with granola?

I was happy to do it.

Man I hope he does this. Love to see the House controlled by the Dems again.

Harvey Weinstein never thought he’d be imprisoned either. But now he’s rotting in jail. Too bad, so sad.

Lol. Good luck with that Lauro. It’s not getting thrown out, and this judge won’t allow endless subpoenas either.

Bullsh!t. I think I am intelligent and honest enough that I can make a judgment that isn’t fueled by political motive. I was opposed to impeaching Trump over the Mueller report; I didn’t think the evidence was there. But the Ukraine phone call was, I believe an impeachable offense. So were Trump’s actions after January 6. Feel free to disagree with my opinions on these two issues, but don’t try to tell me that I think the way I do because of bias.

I doubt it.

Both impeachments against Trump proved their case, IMO. Republican Senators refused to convict for political reasons.
