Is this really your diagnosis Dr. Hawk? All the people who died from COVID were dumb? Do you think age or weight or comorbidities may have contributed to their death? I've read there were many many many cases of people vaxed and masked that still got it and died. And wearing a mask never protected you from getting it unless it was an N95. I don't know which is a dumber pretense, this one or the one about OJ Simpson.

Of course money and equipment are being stolen. Its a war. That's what happens in war. Happened in WW I, WW II, Viet Nam, and Iraq. Happens in all wars. Why should we be surprised?

We can all agree on that. Too bad the people that make the rules about campaign finance are fat, dumb, and happy with the way it is. I remember the last time Congress tackled campaign finance reform we ended up with Citizens United and Super PACs. I don't have much hope. However I do have a good IMHO idea to cut out a lot of money. Candidates can only accept money from people in their district.

Agreed. But was he great at football? Both can be true.

Says who? You? LOL 😆 People are complex. Evil people can be good or even great at some things. OJ Simpson evily killed his wife and Ron Goldman (allegedly). Does that mean he was not a great football player? Phil Spector shot his girlfriend in the mouth. Pretty evil I'd say. Does that mean he was not a great music producer? Bill Cosby is truly evil IMHO for raping all those women. Does that mean he was not a great comedian? I'm not defending Lee or Trump. I just think your pretense is ridiculous.

Robert E. Lee was a great general according to historians. The Union wanted him to be their General but he turned them down. Just because he was on the wrong side doesn't mean he wasn't. Of course he was a loser for joining the wrong side and what he was fighting for was evil. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smithsonian-institution/which-general-was-better-ulysses-s-grant-or-robert-e-lee-180952005/ Saying he was a not a great general is like Bills fans saying Patrick Machines is not a great QB. I football hate the guy, but he is great.

I understand. Doesn't change anything. Your definition includes "can only be understood by, a particular group." If you understand then you must be of the particular group according to your definition. Seems you understand.

Dog whistles can only be heard by dogs. If you heard it what does it say about you?

What's up with that hat? I though a fedora was his thing. I don't wish I was 17 again. I might not make it this time.

I would suspect it's about even. Maybe skewed more to who is in power at the moment. The ACA had some good things , but it fell FAR short of what President Obama and a Democrat Congress promised which is the point.

The Democrats had a majority in the HoR and the Senate and the Presidency. All the Republicans voted against it and some Democrats and it still passed. They could have done whatever they wanted including public option. They chose not to and passed what they wanted to pass. I knew we were doomed when they brought in the heavy lobbying insurance companies help them figure out what to do.

Who is "you all"? Please quote me where I have ever cried commie or tranny without end. I have no idea how old you are, but I'll let in on a little secret. This great day arrives and all these old people are dead which you can't wait for is still probably 15-20 years away. In that time you will be guess what? Getting 15-20 years older yourself if you live that long (no guarantee you will). ThenThere will be young whippersnappers calling you old and out of touch and can't wait til YOU die. I find this trend over the last 10 years or so of the battle of the generations gross. See the whole "OK Boomer" rage. Not surprising though since now everyone is in a tribe (race,gender,sexual orientation,generation) nowadays. Do you honestly think its perfectly OK to make fun of people for medical conditions (enlarged prostate)? Would it be OK if I made fun of @muppy going through menopause?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Ageism

What are you afraid of? Maybe President DeSantis signs 15 Presidential proclamations on the first day? https://www.npr.org/sections/inauguration-day-live-updates/2021/01/20/958630029/heres-what-biden-plans-to-do-in-his-1st-day-as-president

???? Is that a good thing or a bad thing?

If Trump did. It still has yet to be proven. I'll gladly take 5 Americans dead and nasty tweets over 7,000+ dead Americans and 1,000,000+ dead brown people all day long and twice on Sunday.

Trump passed some things that personally helped me and other veterans. https://www.defense.gov/News/News-Stories/Article/Article/1158092/president-signs-bill-to-extend-veterans-choice-health-care-law/ Perhaps you think veterans deserve less health care? I still don't like him and hope he never sets foot in the oval office again, but he done good on this one.

In other words, you don't know.

Calling someone a ###### (and even screwing with the spelling to fool spell check) is ableist and disgusting. And @redtail hawk gave him a Lombardi Trophy for it. Touchy feely Libs at work.

I didn't like Trump either but come on man, W was far worse what with not reading the briefings before 9/11 and his Iraq War boondoggle which killed 8,000+ US troops/contractors (31,000+ injured) and 1,000,000+ brown people. But, I suppose you could have been born in 2009.

How do you propose to do this?

So the marketing manager for Bud Light said it's just as I said. They're doing it for the money. But I mean really, you sell a cheap watered down beer so people can drink it fast and get drunk. That's why its popular with the frat boys (and girls).

Whenever I hear of drag queen story hour in schools or teaching things such as CRT, I wonder what they're taking out of the school day to put this in? its not like American public schools are knocking it out of the park teaching reading, writing, and arithmetic leaving extra time for this other stuff. Something's gotta give. What is it?
