Joe Ferguson forever

Bactine and a band aid should do it...

Shite, i thought he was a corner. bit small for safety. Elam better step up...

Ok,L Ron. Ya think he made a possible SB team for sympathy? The window is closing. they pick the best. Who was better at corner that got cut?

Hamlin's good, Dude!

I'm watching the Bills 1st quarter against the bears. Good stuff! 4th in the AFCE east. Nope. Maybe 2nd but Aaron Rodgers is a D#ick.

Appreciate this thread. I've been thinking a lot about this. I like the ability to "speak" unfiltered. But what is accomplished? Nothing. But there have been very successful TV series about nothing. Not sure that's a glowing endorsement. Then there's this

certainly not unique in my viewpoint on this https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/trump-blame-sides-charlottesville-now-anniversary-puts-spot/story?id=57141612 i'll keep em coming Like this piece quite a bit https://www.npr.org/2018/08/11/637665414/a-year-after-charlottesville-not-much-has-changed-for-trump Republican Senator Cory Gardner of Colorado was among those who argued that Trump needed to be more clear about who he was condemning. "This is not a time for vagaries. This isn't a time for innuendo or to allow room to be read between the lines. This is a time to lay blame ... on white supremacists, on white nationalism and on hatred," Gardner said on CNN the day after Trump's initial statement. Republican House Speaker Paul Ryan, who until that time had not been very critical of Trump as president, said Trump "messed up." "It sounded like a moral equivocation or at the very least moral ambiguity when we need extreme moral clarity," Ryan said on CNN. Corporate executives pulled out of two White House business advisory panelsas they attempted to distance themselves from Trump. The two panels ended up disbanding. A Politico/Morning Consult poll released earlier this week found 55 percent of voters say race relations have worsened under Trump. In a Quinnipiac University poll last month, voters were split on whether Trump was a racist, with 49 percent saying he is and 47 percent saying he is not. But, that same poll found that 55 percent of voters said that Trump has emboldened people who hold racist beliefs to express those beliefs publicly. Seems the predominant opinion 1 year after Charlottesville was the one I hold.

You're in denial. He's clearly racist. Good people on both sides was deplorable but again we've almost become immune to the shock. It's just normal MAGA talk. nothing to see here.

Tell that to the potential renters that successfully sued him, the Central park kids he wrongly convicted in the press, the proud boys, the boogaloo boys, the 3% and every racist hate group around the world that has been emboldened by him.

Hiding in plain sight. This kind of stuff goes unnoticed now because it's such a common tactic in the same way trump made racism normal again. You just get worn down and are no longer shocked or even aware sometimes. But it's good to recognize these tactics. Not sure for who but someone could benefit.

the irony of this just struck me. Every trump thread has about 1/3 what about hunter/Joe posts and you're complaining about that happening a thread bashing Biden.

That's my point. There is no such thing as literal interpretation. People color the different translations from Aramaic, Greek and Hebrew to suit their needs. Re the reformation, i don't blame Luther for starting a new church in the face of buying indulgences. However, "reformation" has veered far off from His original plan. See "white Christian Nationalists" and Jerry Falwell Jr.. Yup, there were some bad popes. They're men after all (x when acting ex cathedra), but I think it's better to have scholars interpret the bible than some guy who decided he was "reverend".

not aware. will need to check them out. One thing I found in my career tho: People who constantly spout scripture (almost always fundamentalists) are some of the least Christian people in actions. And this "Christian White Nationalism" is just unimaginable to me. Yet there it is....

He's old school for sure. When I took care of some of "the greatest generation" folks who fought in WW2, some were like that...but man did they follow orders and never complained.

where? political sanity? or just sanity?

Or "we interpret literally" and then don't see the conflict between thou shalt not kill and the death penalty or an unjust war...or trump and christianity, for that matter. and then there is that passage about "You are Peter. And on this rock, I will build my church". Amazingly, no mention of Luther or Calvin or Henry the 8th.

well this is fun. sadly, I've got to mow and then pull poke weed from a wildflower bed

there are beta blockers that don't cross the blood brain barrier and rarely cause confusion. Ask your cardiologist. maybe I am what? A R T I C U L A T E. and not in a mechanical sense...

It is small. The idea that he holds up Thurmond as someone to admire is more unsettling...I don't feel Joe is demented. At worst, he has what neurologists call "mild cognitive impairment" but I don't think he meets criteria for that. would need a good neurologist evaluation to determine. Even if he does, as Frank said, I'd rather a cognitively impaired prez with good advisors than a psychopath with evil advisors...

did go over a waterfall at about 19. hit my head on a rock. took finals with 2 black eyes. Even the hockey players in my class felt bad for me. But it was at least 10 years after, that I changed party affiliation. I think my liberal wife may have had some influence. Life is good.

relativity. small lies, medium lies and THE BIG LIE...

cool. don't vote...gotta say. I like this Hemlein guy. Sort of a reality check for the righties. But then he goes and supports desantis...
