    Do you really think he would get angry at that question?  Maybe I am naive, but I don't think he would.

    Right.  Zo would be unable to contain himself and would lash out violently at an honest question...do I have that right Weo?

    I agree, but probably not for the same reason. 
     


    My case in point. 

    At the risk of this being banished to ppp I will stop here, but what is the point if there isn't a uniform standard?

    I don't think that term means what you think it means - and if it does and you're still using it, well ... that's too bad.

     

    I don't think any rational person is trying to say the this comment about skin tone was a racist comment.  I think most rational people will agree that it was not meant to be offensive or demeaning in any way, shape or form.

     

    I also don't think it's terribly difficult to understand why it simply not a good idea - as someone with a mic in front of him paid to speak to thousands of listeners - to "go there."  In a position like his, he'd be wise to stay away from politics, race, color and/or sexual orientation.  Even if a comment is harmless, if it falls into one of those categories, it's just inviting some radical idiot to make life miserable for the organization.

     

    He should have known better and that's why he was suspended.  That's all it boils down to.

    Yeah, no *****. I never said theyd be right, or that anyone should sue. Just that litigation, or the fear there of, is what drives most policies like the one that got him suspended. And the US is the most litigious country ever created. It's how we work.

     

    The policies have been around since the Civil Rights Act of 1964. If they are enforced a little tighter now, that's a different story.

    Agreed, but those HR policies as written post civil rights act were meant to deal with racism.  Hysteria has led to a much more lenient interpretation.  I don't t think this rises to racism by any standard definition.  Maybe we are saying the same thing here?

    People going to turn this all political on both sides, ignoring the simple fact that the comment is just plain dumb. By this logic no one should have ever seen a baseball coming out of my hands to hit the fastball. 

    Maybe it was different wear I played, I couldn't wear a white shirt on the mound.  People had a hard enough time picking up the ball out of my hand anyway.  Just the right combination of rocket fuel and wild as all hell.

    Again does my opinion of bibi mean that I necessarily support a more left leaning politician especially in a country in which you could be moderate and have to align with other parties to actually get something done.

     

    I don’t like him as a leader and personally don’t think he is good for the long term benefit of Israel. Many Israelis i know who live in Tel Aviv agree with me.

    Is that the equivalent of I know what black people feel cause I know a black dude?

    It's hilarious to see the raw HATE for Kaepernick here, despite him being pretty much the same thing as Josh Allen.

     

    Big, hugely talented, great runner, not a particularly good passer.

     

    I would certainly hope the Bills attend his practice on Saturday.

     

    We are far, far away from being set at QB.

     

    We should pursue all options until we are set.

     

     

    Brilliant take, friggin brilliant.  Wow, just wow.

  7. Very fiscally conservative. 

    Socially, do what you want.  As long as it doesn't affect me, I don't care. 

    Automation & AI have me concerned for the population as well.  We won't be able to support the population growth, but I can't see even the cheapest government solution working practically. 

    2nd Amendment, worth dying for.

    I see a civil war between the left and right in the not so distant future.  50% of the population is always written off as flat wrong depending on who is talking.  When that happens the only thing left is blood shed where the winner takes all.

    The Inspector General of Intelligence will brief the House Intelligence Committee today at 9:30 as it is being reported that Trump may have made promises to a foreign leader (Putin?) that raised alarm bells and prompted an official to report the incident. The IG has found this a credible complaint and very serious. Is this why Bolton resigned? 

     

    Trump's communications with foreign leader part of controversial whistleblower complaint... Developing...
    Bolton unloads on President...

    Multiple cowards who didn't hear the call and won't speak publicly.  That pretty much sums it up right?

    Low information people forgetting this was already a story -- and investigated/debunked. 

     

    But now that Jordan is going to be on the intel committee, they need to smear him. An honest person would ask more about that, rather than doubling down on already proven misinformation. 

    Time to clean up the country...
