I always enjoyed this bit on Conan's show, particularly the airplane part.

That's what a stalker would say. Just sayin'

Best clip I've seen from her in this interview. I'm surprised Baier didn't bring up the 945720 lawfare suits that the Left has brought up against Trump. Nevertheless, nice apoplexy over the United States of America!

One fun story: my daughter took theater in HS, and found herself sitting on a D in the class. The reason, in a nutshell, was that she was assigned to a team of losers for a big class project that never got fully completed (she did her part). The teacher was a woman who was universally feared for being a hard ass. I went in to see her, explained the situation, and in general used honey instead of vinegar (which I also find generally productive). She rebuffed each point I made. Finally, I said, "her getting a D in this class is not an acceptable solution, what can we do about it?" She didn't answer immediately. I said nothing, merely staring into her eyes. Finally she said, "well, I guess we could [blah blah blah]." She ended up with an A. [I'll note that my daughter loved theater and put in a lot of effort with the group and class.] The next day my daughter came home from school and said, "OMG, Teacher said you were the most intimidating person she's ever dealt with!" I was honestly puzzled, because I had spent most of the time being very agreeable. But it was that end, where I was willing to sit there silent until she acquiesced, that did the trick.

Trump talk only- no Eagles talk allowed (Steelers talk is OK though)

Also I missed the interview so I won't comment on it. If anyone has a link to it please provide. -

Brian Steltzer probably has a poster of a shirtless Bret Baier on his bedroom wall. Free blue meth for all the black folk! No matter how many times you say the bolded, it doesn't make it even remotely true. -
This should be good... care to defend this assertion? I read the LA Times op ed pablum that seems to have started the ball rolling; her main argument seems to be that some racists support Elder, ergo Elder is a racist. If somehow you slog through to the end of the article, she says his (libertarian) objection to 3 policies are examples as well: https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2021-08-27/larry-elders-recall-fans-prove-hes-face-white-supremacy Got any actual evidence? Because this isn't it.

I know more adult Disney fans than I care to admit -- none of them strike me as a "sniper on the roof" kinda person. That being said, your logic is flawed. Every politician has upset parts of his/her constituency, that comes with the territory. Most don't get shot though, because they aren't the evil Nazi dictator threat to democracy that Trump (or DeSantis or...) is.

Here's another good one: Larry Elder, conservative from @purdygood's state of CA, was a "white supremacist!" (yeah, he's black). https://www.google.com/search?q=larry+elder+white+supremacist&oq=larry+elder+white+supremacist&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOdIBCDYxMzlqMGo3qAIAsAIA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

I may have said that. It has nothing to do with my point. If DeSantis had won the nom and the MSDNC continued it's assault of "he's Trumpier than Trump$#@!", are you saying there would not have been assassination attempts on him?

Can you really jihad a book for a guy described by that obituary? People reading whatever we wrote would think "well, yeah." -

Whoever wrote that... we need to get posting here. -
I said "MSDNC", a reference to the fact that the main stream media is in the hip pockets of the DNC. Florida is a mess? Says the guy from California? In the time it took me to write this, 20 more people moved out of CA. Regardless, thanks for proving my point. Apparently it's ANYONE but Trump... or DeSantis... or like the article said, whoever the Republicans ran.

Silence is actually very powerful in negotiations; I've used it quite often in my life, both work and personal. People hate silence. They'll fill it with words, which often acquiesce to your points.
-
Sorry, but while this is popular to say, it's just false. Whoever ran for the Republicans would be vilified by the MSDNC as "worse than Trump$#@!" Don't believe me? Remember when DeSantis looked like the Republican candidate? Great article by the Hill describing my point: https://thehill.com/opinion/campaign/4030670-desantis-is-the-greatest-threat-to-america-ever-until-the-next-guy/ We would be sitting here with you telling us that if the Republicans nominated ANYONE but DeSantis, he'd have your vote.

Congrats! I was going to go with the "take care of my baby" route, but @edjrbeat me to it. -

jerryskids replied to Frozenbeernuts's topic in The Geek Club
I appreciate the differentiation you are making. That being said, in your model, how long do you think they could have delayed certification to make a substantive difference? Would a few hours give Trump's legal team enough time to find a new legal straw with which to steal the election? Also, I would argue that most people, the vast majority, were caught up in the mob mentality, not going in with some specific purpose. -
67 degrees is the perfect temperature to keep your house
jerryskids replied to Frozenbeernuts's topic in The Geek Club
I'd have to go look at our winter setting but basically this. We definitely do 75 in the summer. Yeah, we are 100+ all summer; today was a chilly 95. We are lucky that our current house is quite energy efficient, so 75 is not a strain on our AC or pocketbooks. Our last house was much larger, higher ceilings, and less efficient overall. We kept that at 78. It's not that bad once you get used to it. Sucks for people who visit though. -

jerryskids replied to The Real timschochet's topic in The Geek Club
I thought I was your good friend? I answer your questions all the time. I just don't respond well to presumptive statements like I have to or need to, to answer your new question before you'll address mine. If there is something in this sub-discussion I have not answered for you, let me know. Otherwise, I'll presume you just made it up. I tried a simple Google search and nothing was apparent. But I figured since you said it with such conviction, you had some receipts. -

She proposed $20K forgiveness of loans for black entrepreneurs as both Senator and VP? Link? I wasn't aware of this. TIA. -

If by you>me, you mean that if you just type "Brown" you presume people know that means Chase Brown and not first round pick AJ Brown, then yes, you are da bomb. -

I just said that perhaps "favorability" was the wrong word. I'm not sure what else to say. That being said, the video does focus a lot on her issues with messaging to men. -

jerryskids replied to Frozenbeernuts's topic in The Geek Club
OK. You said that there are more people guided by the Bible and overly believe in Trump than you would like. I said there are more people who support Hamas, transing kids, men in women's sports, and wide open border than I would like. I think we are in agreement. -
