What an embarrassment 

[lod001 1,344]

How about this one. Biden created a US that he himself says is not safe. Take a look a the guy in the background as he makes this statement that Trump will now use in his campaign. 

BIDEN: "I'd be riding down a street in the vehicle before and see a bunch of kids in the schoolyard waving and I'd stop and get out. Realistically, I can't do that anymore. It's just too dangerous what's going on out there."

https://x.com/RNCResearch/status/1810025783337079180

That dude: 'You fockin idiot.' He goes from a smile as the turnip speaks to OMG, fuckin moron.

What’s he’s saying is that there’s too many school shootings because Republicans block his every effort to control guns. I’m afraid the idiot is you. 
 

Overall violent crime has gone way down under Biden.

Biden did radio interviews with two black radio stations to try to rehab his image after the debate.  Turns out his people provided the questions to the interviewers:

https://apnews.com/article/biden-black-radio-questions-approval-ff92ebeff33df7ef5a87a59f776c981c

Fortunately, one of those radio stations has some ethics and got rid of the host who did the interview.

Biden is directly causing unemployment in the black community!!!

What’s weak about it? No shtick here. Something like 80% of the American public want tighter gun control laws; they believe, with reasonable evidence and logic, that such laws will reduce mass shootings. Republicans are beholden to extremist factions within the NRA gun nuts and block it every time. If Biden and the Dems had their way we’d all be a lot safer.

Pulling numbers out your a$$ again?  And even if that was the case, I bet most would be from 2-3 of our most populous states like CA and NY.  Why the fock should people in Wyoming and South Dakota be bound by what people in NY want?   Why do you not care about state's rights?

Because states rights are stupid. It’s an antiquated system, and the only reason it was put in the Constitution was to protect slavery. There shouldn’t be any states, or electoral college.

I was in Canada this week, and my wife has a friend who lives there. (36D). Asked about the gun laws, and they're super strict. Few people get shot, but they have enough of their own problems that we don't have. It's all fockery all around.

Why? What’s your problem with a democratic republic? 

[The Real timschochet 6,779]

See the reason, @Strike, you want to preserve states rights is that you know your views on a host of issues are widely unpopular so you want to protect them through legal means rather than attempt to convince the majority of the rightness of your position. It’s weak. Someday we’ll get rid of it.

Of course it would. We elect legislators to pass laws rather than pass them ourselves. That’s the definition of a Republic. States have nothing to do with it. Guess you failed civics. 

[nobody 2,675]

Lol... So Biden is scared to get out of his car and smell students because he's worried he'll get caught up in a school shooting according to this dude.  It just gets dumber and dumber.

And these legislators, where do they come from? Who do they represent? Different parts of the country? 

[nobody 2,675]

I had to drop my kid off to school for the 300th time.  He waved at me as I was leaving, but I peeled out spewing gravel in his face.  Too dangerous to wave back what with all the school shootings.  Good thing I wore my body armor.

We can agree to disagree.   I see the rights of states to be more important that federal control, far more important.

Many framers of the Constitution feared that a strong central government could threaten the freedom of citizens and become tyrannical. They had just won independence from Britain and were determined to avoid creating another government that could enslave them.

They admitted that the central government needed power to function. To balance this, the framers compromised by giving the federal government specific responsibilities while delegating other functions to the states. 

The framers' concerns about a strong central government were reflected in the Articles of Confederation, which intentionally weakened the national Congress and gave most power to state governments. However, some individuals, including Alexander Hamilton, argued that the Articles didn't concentrate enough power in Congress. 

The role of the federal government should be drastically limited to the fullest possible extent.

You realize there are republics all over the world without states, right? You could have senators based on population count rather than two per state. That would be a lot fairer system.

You can be opposed to a strong central government and still want to do away with the states. In fact that would define my position. I’m not looking to get rid of the Senate, just base it on population. So Vermont and North Dakota regions might have one senator between them. And California would have around 8. You might think that’s unfair but that’s where the people are so it’s totally fair IMO. And it has nothing to do with centralized power.

The tyranny of the majority may seem fair if you are a part of that majority, but not when you find yourself in the minority.  My concern is that the wise are the minority while the majority is a mindless mob.

[The Real timschochet 6,779]

Back to the topic: Biden just wrote a letter to Congress. He’s refusing to quit. Says he owes it to the voters who chose him. Theres an argument for that except that, per polling, Democrats almost overwhelmingly want him gone. 

This is a crisis. Nobody can force Biden to quit. And if he doesn’t quit he’s going to lose. I will vote for him, hope for the best but realistically I don’t see this changing. And it also may lead to Republicans doing much better in the House and Senate than expected. 
 

I’ve never been a huge fan of Joe but IMO, and much to my surprise, I think he’s done a very good job as President. But this may ruin his legacy. It’s hubris on an extreme level. It might be worse than Woodrow Wilson refusing to quit and demanding Congress ratify the Treaty of Versailles without any compromise or discussion. That was the ultimate hubris in our history: one man’s ego and it led directly to the rise of Adolf Hitler and World War II. And now we’re back here again.

I do not really agree. I see your idea as likely leading to anarchy.  Our current system ensures that people have a voice, and no political party can run them over. Its not perfect to be sure, but its among the best in the world.

If we can leave it alone it will work.   It might be true that liberals do not get their way as often as they desire, that is no reason to change the system.

I don’t believe in the rule of the majority. I am in favor of a strong constitution that protects individual rights. Again, states’ rights have nothing to do with that. 
States rights can be every bit as tyrannical as federal rights. If you don’t believe this, try getting an abortion in Alabama.

My viewpoint on this really has nothing to do with liberal vs conservative. Doing away with the states would not necessarily favor liberal ideas, particularly long term.

Biden is doing such a great job as president he has a good chance of losing to a convicted felon. And that was before his meltdown at the debate.

I had to smile at me seeking an abortion (I of course know what you meant by the phrase, but the literal meaning, which was not your meaning, made mer smile.).  As for protecting individual rights in a straight representative democracy, well I would have to see that Constitution before I could opine on it.

I don’t believe in a straight representative democracy. I would keep the two bodies, House and Senate. I think that works very well. But I would refigure the Senate based on population.

I see no way Biden stays in the race.  we were lied to by the white house & most of the press for over 2 years.  Without a teleprompter & written notes basement Biden is without clothes.  I don't think it a coincidence that Putin & Hamas invaded during Biden's term.
