Yes, but is it socially acceptable for a "lady" to sip them neat? We already know that's how men should drink them, apparently.
My lady does both on occasion but she does prefer old fashioneds. Either way, drinks have gotten outrageous at restaurants and bars. Paid $17 for a makers old fashioned in Nashville recently when a fifth of it goes for less than $35 here.

My screen name is 20+ years old. I keep it to remember where I came from, as I have very humble beginnings. But for the record, Tenhigh was a quality well bourbon once upon a time.
For the further record, Makers and Woodford are for Manhattans and old fashioneds and other lady drinks.
Old fashioned are great! Both makers and woodford r fine to sip neat.

Its a race against time. As for now adding about a trillion to the national debt every quarter seems to be propping up things while fueling inflation. But as usual let's worry about the consequence later. Even with all this extra juice economic activity is slowing quickly. Consumers are tapped out from an income, savings, and debt perspective. My expectation is around the start of August the markets roll over and we get a crash of some magnitude.
sadly, I agree except about the crash. Plenty of blame to spread about the debt.. I think that in the shorter term, our military power props up the debt. Eventually, it will cause a crash. I hate it for the millennials and basically anyone younger than a boomer. And then there will be more political unrest.

And at least you are tacitly admitting you are arguing out of both holes in this one.
And for the record, can we agree that democracy isn't really at stake, nor are Trump and his supporters actual Nazis (except for a very small few who may actually support a German party that died 80 years ago)?
your political choices are as bad as your choice in spirits:
maybe go up 2 shelves to Makers or Woodford? Maybe try an Irish Whiskey.

All those things didn’t go far enough, actually.
Again, if Trump was even 25% of what leftists claimed he was I might be inclined to vote for him.

Billsy answers you in a detailed post. You blow it off. Glad I didn't waste my time documenting his Nazi tendencies. You rubes ignore it because you really desire that kind of state. But you won't be better off....

Good taste. I mean, horrible taste in politics, but good taste in music. 😁
I'm old enough to have seen Soul Asylum when they were called Loud Fast Rules. The name said it all back in those days. Also incredible live, and really nice guys too.
Minutemen were really (liberal) political, but even if you don't like that there was an incredible punk funk bass/drums thing that has never been equaled.
I can't decide who trump admires more, Nazi or Soviet dictators:

Nobody really cares much about this or takes it seriously. You and the girls of liberalism can run around in circles screaming all day long. Nobody is listening.
Your cult of chaoos seems desperate.
Then why did trump post it on HIS site? Are lemmings like you ignoring him?

Look at the scum trump closely associated with: Cohen, Giuliani, Costello, ***** etc. Birds of a feather. Presumably that's why so many losers are going to vote for him.

If Quack was Alito's neighbor in this story, it would be Quack who called Alito's wife the c-word.
Based on Quack's previous drunken rantings here, I'd believe that.
Based on your presumably sober rantings, I'd say psychopath more accurately describes you.

Here’s Why The Alito Recusal Calls Are Ridiculous
BY: MARGOT CLEVELAND
MAY 20, 2024
Last week, the left and their paramours in the propaganda press paused momentarily from their near-continuous assault on Justice Clarence Thomas to set their sights on a new target: Justice Samuel Alito.
Justice Alito, headlines barked, must recuse from the pending Supreme Court cases involving Jan. 6 defendants and Trump’s appeal concerning presidential immunity because a “Stop the Steal” symbol was displayed at his house in January 2021. Democrats quickly joined the choir screeching for Alito to recuse. But to borrow a line from Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, the idea that Alito violated any ethical rules, or that the Code of Conduct for the justices requires his recusal from those cases, is wrong six ways to Sunday.
The false flag of an ethical scandal was clear from The New York Times’ spin in breaking the story on Thursday under the headline: “At Justice Alito’s House, a ‘Stop the Steal’ Symbol on Display.” From the Old Gray Lady’s header, one would think the Alitos had displayed a banner brandishing the phrase outside their home.
But no, as the article soon acknowledged, it was an upside-down American flag seen flying outside the home where Justice Alito lives with his wife. And it was his wife who raised the flag — in protest of a neighbor displaying a profane yard sign, as we would soon learn.
The Times, though, quoted supposed ethics experts, including Amanda Frost, a law professor at the University of Virginia, to frame the hanging of an upside-down flag as a public declaration of “Stop the Steal.” This is “the equivalent of putting a ‘Stop the Steal’ sign in your yard,” Frost reportedly told The New York Times.
That’s quite the leap of logic — and one even the Times’ reporters refrained from making. The Times instead left its readers to infer the upside-down flag professed a “Stop the Steal” sentiment by noting some of Trump’s supporters had inverted Old Glory in contesting the 2020 election results.
That inference, furthered by Frost’s declaration, however, represents a rewriting of history. While there may have been a few upside-down flags seen displayed during protests at the Capitol, calling it a symbol of “Stop the Steal” is a completely concocted narrative. Consider, for instance, that contemporaneous reporting by leftist outlets, such as CNN, professing to “decod[e] the extremists symbols and groups at the Capitol Hill insurrection” included no mention of protesters appropriating an upside-down flag as a universal symbol for “Stop the Steal” adherents.
The case against Justice Alito crumbles without the upside-down flag holding the professed political meaning his critics claim. But even accepting the false narrative that flying an upside-down flag is the “equivalent of putting a ‘Stop the Steal’ sign in your yard,” the charges of unethical conduct and the clamoring for recusal fare no better.
Code of Conduct
There are two distinct issues: First, whether Mrs. Alito’s raising of the flag represented an ethical violation for Justice Alito.
Second, whether Mrs. Alito’s display of an upside-down flag requires Justice Alito to recuse.
The answer to both questions is no.

.
All of which, begs the question "what was his or his wife's intent on flying the inverted flag?" If it were really a tit-for-tat a between rude neighbors, wouldn't a note in the offenders mailbox saying "We don't appreciate your crude sign" be more effective? Especially for some one in a distinguished position in the gov't or his presumably sophisticated wife? Why would an upside down flag send her message clearly and without obvious ambiguity?

Can we pause the thread for a moment to point out how hilarious it is that redtail actually responds when it's called Quack, MD.
When in Rome...I mean I'm in a forum with the likes of you. I know who I am. How you refer to me reflects on you, not me. Pretty certain I'm the only actual MD who frequents this place so it's obvious who you are referring to. If you were referencing "Doc" you'd be more complimentary....

'm not trying to blame anyone because I don't know. I was hoping the commission would really dive into this and give us some answers. But they didn't for some reason.
yes, you are. You're trying to blame the would be victims: The American voters who convincingly elected a D prez and not trump. Oh, and Pence and Pelosi who were targeted for murder. How much security would have been necessary to control that mob of scum marching from a trump rally where for some reason metal detectors were turned off. POS after POS testified that they were following trump's order to attack the capitol. The parties to place the blame on are obvious.

Alito's neighbor, with a ***** Trump sign in his lawn, also called his wife the c-word?
Fess up now Quack, you're Alito's neighbor, aren't you?
nah, if they were my neighbor, I'd have a use for all the dog shite that I pick up from my yard. Also NoVa is nice to visit but I wouldn't want to live there.

i read this 3x's and still have no idea what it's meant to convey. The asshat is a supreme court justice. He and his wife should be above flying upside down US flags. The fact that you're ok with it explains a great deal.
