“WITHOUT including Crimea, the govt in Kiev can now lay claim to controlling perhaps 55% of its own territory.”
Its more like aound 80%-90%.
The size of the Crimea is about 10,000 square miles; the size of the Ukraine is about 233,052 square miles — the size of Texas. It has a population of 43 million. The breakaway eastern Donbass region consists of only about 10% of the Ukraine. Ukraine is a huge, vibrant country with a separate culture from Russia.
The Crimea is populated by Russians and other ethnic groups, and historically was not part of the Ukraine. It was Khrushchev who arbitrarily included the Crimea in the Ukraine. Its population voted in an plebiscite to be included in Russia, and historically that is where it belongs. Likewise the 10% of the Ukraine that is part of the Donbass in southeast Ukraine could become part of Russia — however there is a significant part of the population in that region that is Ukrainian or of other ethnic background, and would actually like to stay in the Ukraine.
By the way, the Ukraine is about double the size of Poland. Its army is 288,000, and has been shown to be willing to fight. We need to be sending them the required weaponry to do so.
SDC, you are going to confuse the HHR isolationists, the Putin appeasers, Neville Chamberlains and “peace in our time” morons with facts.
Putin doesn’t care about the Dombass region, he only cares about re-creating the Soviet Union. Standing by while he does should not be an option.
My feeling is Putin is testing Biden like Khrushchev tested Kennedy during the Bay of Pigs. Putin senses Biden is weak and mentally decrepit, and like the rest of the world was shocked at Biden’s incompetence in Afghanistan. Why not provoke a crisis and see what sort of concessions he can get from the moron who is now U.S. president?
The Germans threw him a loop by delaying the NordStream pipeline. He also has to worry that if there was a conflict with the Ukraine, the Belarus population might rebel and support the Ukraine. It’s up to Biden to act decisively now, which he may not be capable of doing. It’s frightening to think about. Trump would have resolved things with one blunt phone call.
SDC. The point I made earlier about Putin’s army of 175,000 being WAY too small to over run and occupy Ukraine.
The entire standing Russian Army is barely above 400,000 men. It’s strength lies in its nuclear capability, which is scary
The point I made earlier about Putin’s army of 175,000 being WAY too small to over run and occupy Ukraine.”
Isolationist “peace in our time” BS goal post moving alert.
Neville Chamberlain thought giving Hitler Czechoslovakia would appease Hitler just like Neville Allen thinks partioning the Ukraine would appease Putin.
The US has to start a massive offensive weapon airlift to the Ukraine now so Putin understands an attack on Ukraine’s territorial integrity is an act of war and will be very costly in lives and financially.
Putin is not going to use nuclear weapons to recreate the Soviet Union, he is just going to bully the Neville Chamberlain’s of the world into appeasing him.
5. Agree Gordon. Putin is saber-rattling. He thinks he can get concessions from Biden and the new German leader. When Biden unilaterally dropped U.S. opposition to the NordStream gas pipeline, it was another sign to Putin that Biden was weak.
The Germans are playing hardball with Putin.
“The construction of the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline was fully completed on September 10, 2021. In order to start pumping gas, the Nord Stream 2 operator needs to get approval from the German regulator. The certification has now been stopped, as the operator Nord Stream 2 AG, headquartered in Switzerland, needs to register a subsidiary in Germany.
This week, the Federal Network Agency of Germany announced that a decision on the certification of the Nord Stream 2 operator will not be made in the first half of 2022. The Russian side has repeatedly stressed that Nord Stream 2 is a commercial project and is being implemented jointly with European partners…”
SDC. You’re right. Putin does NOT have the conventional capability( which is too expensive to maintain) to launch major offensive operations against any sizeable defending force; Crimea didn’t have that anyway. Ukraine, which has a 250,000 men, and an indigenous armament industry, is too tough a nut to swallow whole for him like Crimea/
Supporting them(Ukraine) with economic sanctions against Russia, and targeted weapons deliveries is helpful.
China is rich enough to maintain large conventional forces, and IS capable of swallowing Taiwan(vastly smaller than Ukraine) up, and is much the greater threat than Putin.
Jason, with his myopic love affair w China(truly Chamberlain like-although the latter is somewhat unfairly criticized) will blow up at that. Big Whoop.
I could give him some useful literature gained from a 40 year membership in the Air Force Association, and 25 years in The US Naval Institute, or from my library of WW 2 books to read, but as he and Bitterlaw believe themselves experts in things that they aren’t( an irony actually shared by those verbal contestants) they wouldn’t accept.
i agree generally with your analysis.
I have often heard people say
“Crimea river”.
*****************************************
Where is the “Crimea river”?
I could give him some useful literature gained from a 40 year membership in the Air Force Association, and 25 years in The US Naval Institute
Just curious, Gordon. How many years did you actually serve in the military? I was not permitted to serve but I would not tout my years of watching documentaries and lectures as equal to service.
40 years in the Air Force Association?
LOL.
Neville Allen is a joke if he thinks that somehow that makes silly isolationist stick your head in sand deny History rants more palatable.
Neville Allen learned nothing from History. All he does is repeat shallow “peace in our time” mantra without actually having to do any thinking.
And nobody is more for defending Taiwan here than I am, so Neville Allen can take his “jason love affair with China” and GFH.
“and IS capable of swallowing Taiwan(vastly smaller than Ukraine)”
Wow, where do I start with this stark display of ignorance?
If “size” was the main consideration, Israel would be screwed.
Someone should tell Neville Allen that Taiwan is an island, that its military is much more sophisticated than the Ukraine’s, and that the logistics of invading Taiwan are exponentially more complex than invading the Ukraine.
9. Yes, agree with you Gordon that Putin is likely bluffing.
Apparently Putin is now in a tizzy over the Germans delaying the NordStream pipeline. Putin might be realizing that being a buffoon may cost him several billion in gas revenue. The Green Party is a major player in the new German government, and is likely very happy to shut-off the pipeline as a matter of ecological purity. Little Greta should be scolding evil polluter Putin for not only attempting to destroy the Ukraine, but the whole planet as well
On a good note, Europe is now importing a record amount of U.S. LNG instead of Russian natural gas. There presently are 10 large LNG carriers in route from the U.S. to Europe now — these are massive ships carrying huge amounts of chilled natural gas.
“Russian exporter Gazprom PJSC isn’t booking Yamal-Europe capacities because its buyers, mainly in France and Germany, didn’t make requests for the supplies, Russian President Vladimir Putin said Thursday.”
15. Oops, was incorrect on the number of U.S. LNG Tankers headed to Europe, it’s a lot more:
“More U.S. LNG Cargoes Head to Europe to Ease Energy Crisis
By Sergio Chapa
15 U.S. LNG cargoes declare European ports as destinations
11 cargoes with undeclared ports also seem on path to Europe
The number of tankers crossing the Atlantic with U.S. liquefied natural gas that declared Western European ports as their destinations jumped 50% in just 24 hours as the continent’s energy crisis deepens.
They are now 15, up from 10 on Wednesday, shipping data compiled by Bloomberg show.”
CNN is desperate. OMICRON HAS KILLED AT LEAST 1!
“The Omicron variant of coronavirus is spreading quickly in several countries where it has been discovered. Even if it causes only mild disease — and that’s far from certain— that could still mean many people end up in the hospital and dying.
It’s killed at least one person in the UK and put 10 into the hospital.”
Wow, let’s shut it all down.
On a good note, Europe is now importing a record amount of U.S. LNG instead of Russian natural gas. There presently are 10 large LNG carriers in route from the U.S. to Europe now — these are massive ships carrying huge amounts of chilled natural gas.”
You mean the natural gas the Dems are trying to get the US to stop producing.
Give her the Lack of Self-awareness Award for 2021.
Kamala Harris say her greatest failure so far is “not getting out of DC more”.
Putin is likely bluffing”
Believing that is not a strategy.
Calling his bluff is a strategy.
Next Neville Allen will claim he has a friend with over 5000 hours playing Call of Duty, which makes Neville the premier expert in military strategy here at HHR.
Heh Jason numbskull. Would you like my AFA Air Force Association Number or a copy of my Certificate of membership for 40 years?
Give me your mailing address so I can send you a certified copy so I can prove I sent it to you,so people here can know for sure what an ignorant blowhard BS artist you are.
If your still living in your parents basement, give me their address.
This site has become one laden with argumentative morons like yourself; I previously thought Bitterlaw was at the apex,but I was wrong.
You take the cake. If you want to verify further information on me I’ll give you what you want,PROVIDED you do likewise,so others can fairly judge.
You truly are the definition of an A hole. Congratulations on that.
Did Gordon serve in the military or not?
Heh Jason numbskull. Would you like my AFA Air Force Association Number or a copy of my Certificate of membership for 40 years?”
Zzzzzz….
I don’t care if you have a number or not, neither does anybody else, the fact you think that being member of an “Air Force Association” somehow makes your vapid, shallow and idiotic rants any more credible is what I am mocking.
Stick your “Association” memberships up your ass.
Or maybe go play war games on your computer and then come back here and claim your are an expert in military strategy.
And by the way, Neville Allen, did you answer Bitter’s question yet?
How many years did you serve?
Hint: member of the Air Force Association doesn’t count as “serving”.
I previously thought Bitterlaw was at the apex,but I was wrong.”
Sorry, Bitter, but such is life. One day at the apex, the next day dethroned.

There is a rumor Neville Allen was in the Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard, Army and Marines, although there is a question on whether having a “Semper Fi” bumper sticker on his car actually constituted being in the Marines.

Jason – Do you want to join? I did not see any requirement to have actually served in the Air Force.
Left WV this afternoon where the temps were in the 60s and flew to Minn./St. Paul where it is cold and snowing. Walt let Cow have the window seat.
Spending night here and then drive the 4 (or more) hours north to near Mason, WI. Low temps there will be below zero.
*****************************************
Parking lots at Dulles Airport were pretty full of cars (flew out before Christmas and are not returned yet). But the human traffic was light.
Mask mandates everywhere. Very few people not abiding by them. But saw no maskless people wrestled to the ground or tazed.
Saw more people travelling with dogs/little pups than I remember. Some pooped on the carpets of the hallways at the airports.
They better hope this Cow’s bowels and bladder do not cut loose.
Walt packed his cigars in non-carry-on luggage. But lighters and matches are (again) banned items and cannot be carried on or put in suitcases. At the hotel, Walt can’t find any matches, the rental SUV is push button start, turn a dial to change gears–very different from what he is used to. Had trouble figuring out how to lock the vehicle.
So Walt is half pi$$ed–about the rental car setup, his smokes, inconvenience of airports travel in general, during the flight a crying tot on lap of a young mom in next seat up, had a lot of trouble finding a parking place at the hotel.
Cow is in MN, but has not seen anything of lisab yet.
“Russia announces withdrawal of 10,000 troops after drills near Ukraine.”
Putin and the new German Chancellor are going to be discussing the Ukraine and other issues in January. If things go well, assume the German Chancellor will call and wake Biden up from his nappy and update him on what happened.
Jason – Do you want to join? I did not see any requirement to have actually served in the Air Force.”
What is the incentive?
It hasn’t helped Neville Allen.
Of course, that IS a low bar.
I can see Walt misses the good old days when he traveled by horseback, slept in inns, and cavorted with bar wenches.
Bitter, the requirements to join the Naval Institute are very stringent and only for the crème de la crème of military strategists.
You need $65.
Give me your mailing address so I can send you a certified copy so I can prove I sent it to you,so people here can know for sure what an ignorant blowhard BS artist you are.”

The Elizabeth Warren effect:
Per the website Legal Insurrection (quite a respectable outfit, imo), census data shows the Native American population in the U.S. has increased 86.5% in the last decade, between 2010-2020.
This is not due to natural increase or immigration. This is entirely due to white people going all Elizabeth Warren in order to get in on the racial spoils, i.e., college admission preferences.
The losers here are ordinary white Americans with college age kids, who can’t or don’t play these games.
On a personal note, I know an atty, who was a Presidential appointee under Obama, who spent $20000+ on genealogical research, to establish that he/she was part Native American. This person (& his/her spouse also) are as white as freshly-fallen snow.
P.S. to post 46:
I forgot to add:
to the extent that any genuine Native Americans benefit from racial preferences, they are the primary victims, I suppose.
Warren just pioneered this scam. To my horror, people think it’s a GREAT idea, apparently.

Civiqs polling, about which I know nothing, has Biden’s JA at 36%, a new low for the year, in a poll released Sunday.
It states it’s a large sample poll of RVs.
As you might expect for a poll with Biden’s JA that low, ALL the subgroups are wretched for him also.
I note that RAS today has Biden’s JA at 40/58, which is very close to his worst ever.
Civiqs is the polling company DKos uses on their website.

mnw, you should have your attorney friend speak with Tsla, who is an expert on getting government freebies due to his “disadvantaged” status. He has taken several DNA tests to try to increase his black ancestry above 7%–I assume that he figures that if he studies a bit harder he can get to 12.5% and claim “octoroon status” and some extra cash–but I’m sure that he hasn’t spent anywhere close to $20,000 on his “credentials.”
A great (if flawed) man once said “I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.” Boy was he wrong about that one.

Brain freeze.
If oil goes to $100/bbl from $75/bbl, that would be a one-third increase, not a 25% increase.
Even though oil prices are way off their 2021 highs because of COVID/OMICRON, consumer spending is quite robust. The point being, if the Biden regime tales its foot off our necks by easing restrictions, oil consumption will likely return to recent highs, I think. AND the regime just very quietly eased some of the restrictions, i.e., the COVID quarantine time.
FBC reported a likely $4.00 plus a gallon national average by Memorials Day.
Here is how the moron Biden caved in to Putin on the NordStream pipeline:
“Initially the Biden administration’s approach was one of continuity, copying the firm line adopted by Trump and urging Europe not to make itself vulnerable to Russian energy blackmail.
But by May, the line had softened. German diplomacy was at work. On 19 May Antony Blinken, the US secretary of state, waived sanctions on Nord Stream’s chief executive, Matthias Warnig, chair of Nord Stream 2 and a close friend of Putin, explaining he wanted to give time for diplomacy to work. By 7 June Blinken said the pipeline was a fait accompli, and on 21 July, a week after meeting Merkel at the White House, Biden lifted sanctions altogether in a farewell gift to her.”
Gordon
I think energy stocks are being artificially held down by investors’ fear of what the Biden regime may do– this political risk factor has nothing to do with supply & demand.

92. Mnw, I am involved with natural gas as part of my work, and they cannot get it out of the ground fast enough to meet demand. Biden is bouncing off the wall; he wants to stop drilling yet is also demanding increased production. He is also shocked shareholders are finally making good profits(imagine that). The fact the economy is doing well despite the clueless clown in the White House shows the underlying strength of the country. Even my most dogmatic liberal friends now admit the Democrats are going to get slaughtered in the 2022 elections.
90. “FBC reported a likely $4.00 plus a gallon national average by Memorials Day.”
In California we can only dream of it being that low.
This will cause a few people to go bonkers. Trump speaks his mind, even when it offends:
“During an interview on Tuesday with former President Donald Trump, conservative commentator and activist Candace Owens questioned the efficacy of the COVID-19 vaccines.
“Oh no, the vaccines work,” Trump said. “The ones who get very sick and go to the hospital are the ones that don’t take the vaccine. But it’s still their choice. And if you take the vaccine, you’re protected.”
“Look, the results of the vaccine are very good, and if you do get it, it’s a very minor form. People aren’t dying when they take.”
Dang, I bet mnw and Meldrim are not on Greta Thunberg’s Xmas list.
Trump realized early on that the vaccine was essential, and operation warp speed delivered it.
So obviously Trump was never an anti-vaxxer.
Good.
Woke golf pays up.
Of course they expressed satisfaction. Trump got a fat check and the PGA saved themselves from having to write an even fatter check.
“Former U.S. President Donald Trump has resolved a dispute with the PGA of America over the golf association’s decision earlier this year to pull a major professional tournament from a Trump-owned golf course, the PGA of America said.
In a press release, the PGA said it had reached a confidential settlement with the Trump Organization that resolves legal claims stemming from its decision in the wake of the storming of the U.S. Capitol to shun Trump’s golf course in Bedminster, New Jersey.
“While the terms of the settlement will remain confidential, representatives from both the PGA and the Trump Organization expressed satisfaction with the agreement,” the press release stated.
101. The irony is Trump would have pushed people to voluntarily take the vaccine. I don’t think he would ever have supported mandates. So much controversy would have been avoided, and we likely would have had higher vaccination rates.
To be fair, I can’t blame the PGA for not wanting to have a golf tournament in New Jersey.
Who really wants to play golf in a sewer?

“NBC Announces ‘Surge’ in Child COVID Hospitalization Rate to 0.00000026%”
Real headline, not satire. The Babylon Bee is going to go out of business, replaced by the real thing.
If you read the article you find out cases went from 1100 to 1900.
But that is because they tested children who went to the hospital for other reasons and some of them tested positive for Covid.
Bitter to say this happened in Bad Philadelphia in 3, 2, 1….
“PHILADELPHIA, PA—The Philadelphia Police Department today confirmed Santa Claus was sleighjacked while trying to deliver toys to all the good little boys and girls in the city.
“I parked to check Google Maps and suddenly there was this guy with a gun forcing me out of the sleigh,” a tearful Claus told police. “I didn’t have time to dig through my sacks of toys to get out a Red Ryder BB Gun and defend myself. It all happened so fast.”
“Ugh, I had over seven PS5s on that thing!”
Claus says the sleighjacker pushed him out of the sleigh and then took the reins, taking the magical flying vehicle on a joyride through the skies of Philly. Investigators believe the sleighjacking was random and that the perpetrator simply intends to get it over the Mexican border where it can be sold for parts. The reindeer may be taken to Canada where they’ll be made into jerky.”
Trump favors the vaccine, but also opposes mandates — common sense position:
“The tweet seems to reflect the awkward position many outspoken supporters of the former president have found themselves in as a result of his recent vaccine advocacy. At an event with former Fox News host Bill O’Reilly in Dallas on Dec. 19, Trump confirmed that he had been fully vaccinated against COVID-19 and revealed that he had received a third shot, a comment that prompted boos from some people in the audience. In another interview with conservative commentator Candace Owens later that week, Trump continued to tout the efficacy of the COVID vaccines, which were developed under his administration.
“The vaccine is one of the greatest achievements of mankind,” Trump told Owens. “And if you take the vaccine, you’re protected. The results of the vaccine are good.””
I guess the murders and robberies happen in Bad York.
https://york.crimewatchpa.com/yorkpd
I will explain again to my dim-witted A-hole. Crimes can and do happen anywhere in Philadelphia. Most crimes occur in certain areas of the city.
Now that Harry Reid is dead, how many elections will he be allowed to vote in in the future?
Dang, Ma, that Babylon Bee brand bait works really well.

Zzzzzz.. I never claimed there was a Good York and a Bad York. I think the crime stats pertain to the entire city.
You are the one justifying high crime rates in Philly by pretending there are 2 cities, a Good Philly and a Bad Philly.
GFY.
Zzzzzzzzzz I said crime can happen anywhere in Philadelphia but it is worse/focused in certain areas. You invented the false term Bad Philadelphia. I did not. GFY

Not only it can but it does.
You are the one that squeals like a stuck pig whenever someone says the truth: Philadelphia is a crime ridden, drug infested, politically corrupt city and tries to counter that with “yes but there is a “good” Philly too.
It is all one city. The fact some neighborhoods are better than others doesn’t change that.

Former Philly mayor: White DA’s wokery nothing but “bulls*** … paternalism” as crime explodes”
Bitter to squeal and say it has only “exploded” in Bad Philadelphia in 3, 2, 1…..
When Larry Krasner, Philadelphia’s liberal district attorney, was asked this month about the city’s crime surge that includes an unprecedented 550 homicides this year, he appeared to play it down. “We don’t have a crisis of lawlessness,” Krasner said. “We don’t have a crisis of crime. We don’t have a crisis of violence.”
I am sure Bitter agrees with him. Nothing to see here, let’s move on. Just ignore Bad Philadelphia, everything is normal.
Fine. If my choice was to be shot and killed on a sidewalk in Croydon, Havertown, Upper Darby, or anywhere in Southeast PA where deplorables live OR live to be 100 where Jason lives, I would take the bullet.
It’s astonishing to me that voters willingly choose soft-on-crime prosecutors.
This is new. It’s beyond the realm of my experience. My entire adult life, people have taken for granted that prosecutors would be tough on crime, for the same reason that dogs chase cats and squirrels.
Behold the results of this new political phenomenon. It’s not a case of bait-and-switch, either. As far as I know, all these Soros prosecutors WARNED people they were going to be soft-on-crime if elected.

#150, yikes, DW, is one of those headlines actually real? I’m torn between #3 and #5 as to which one may be real … I’ll go with #5.

Harry Reid was a seedy politician. He was effective at enriching his family. Reid would get money allocated for wind and solar projects in Nevada, which his son’s law firm would then represent in obtaining permits and approvals.
One particularly putrid example of Reid’s family cronyism took place in Reid’s home town of Searchlight. Residents opposed a wind farm on sensitive land adjacent to the town. Reid’s property was in the southern part of Searchlight, and he made sure the wind projects impacts to his property’s views was removed before supporting the project:
“Views from Reid’s property, however, won’t be ruined. That’s because when Duke Energy scaled the project down from 161 turbines to 87 turbines, it removed the proposed turbines near Reid’s property on the west side of Searchlight. According to maps presented by Duke Energy and the BLM, only the turbines proposed for the town’s east side remain. While Reid will still have his “beautiful views of the mountains,” some turbines will be just 1,000 feet from private property lines.
Meanwhile Reid’s son, Rory, had no problem voting for the project as a County Commissioner, despite his law firm representing the applicant:
“Reid’s son, Rory, the former Nevada gubernatorial candidate and now a partner in the Lionel Sawyer & Collins law firm, is also connected to the Searchlight Wind Project. Lionel Sawyer & Collins represents Duke Energy, as well as several other renewable-energy companies championed by Harry Reid. This did not prevent him from voting for the project in 2010 as a member of the Clark County Commission.”
Anyone who has ever watched Nevada politics is amazed at the blatant and often open corruption.
Thankfully, an environmental lawsuit by a local Indian tribe and residents killed the project. The area is now part of the area of the proposed Avi Kwa Ame National Monument — its an amazing beautiful area with some of the nicest Joshua Tree forests in the nation. Both Searchlight and Boulder City, which are the nearest towns, both strongly support the new national monument.
What a sweet statement from Trump. Still nothing from Slow Creepy Joe.
Statement by Former President Donald J. Trump on the Passing of Former Senator Johnny Isakson
DECEMBER 19, 2021
•
STATEMENTS AND RELEASES
Melania and I and the entire Trump family are saddened to learn of the passing of Johnny Isakson, the distinguished former United States Representative and Senator from Georgia.
Senator Isakson was a colleague and a friend. We served together and traveled together, and found common ground built on mutual respect for each other and the institutions that govern our nation.
Johnny was a proud Republican, he put country before party, and valued political combat.
In Johnny’s memory, let us heed the wisdom he offered upon retiring from the Senate, where he urged everyone to devote less energy to describing problems and more effort to fighting for the right solutions.
Johnny Isakson was a patriot and a gentleman.
Georgia has lost an indispensable son.
America has lost an exemplary leader.
Our prayers are with Dianne and the entire Isakson family.
Not true that Biden didn’t offer a statement upon Isakson’s passing:

I like when Sen. Isakson said that Trump deserved to be “whipped” for the things he said about John McCain, including after McCain had died.
Somebody must not have told Trump about that.
Upon further examination, take note that the tribute to Sen. Isakson that Annie attributed to Donald Trump was actually word for the word the Biden statement just changing the names.
So, was that a real Trump statement plagiarizing Biden (the irony) or is Annie up to something again?
The first give-way be would that Trump would ever allow himself to be referred to as “former President.”
Happy New Year, Corey.
Same to you.
You know you can still hate Trump but say Biden sucks, right?

I must have missed all your anti-Biden posts. I do need new reading glasses.
The Biden Troll now claims not to support Biden and his agenda?
LOL
Yeah you did miss them. Perhaps you are thinking about Robbie. I do not post much here but every time, I have pointed out numerous disagreements with Biden policies, etc.
What I would like is for the Republican Party to embrace mainstream conservatism again as opposed to Trumpism and be in a position to elect a new President in 2024.
I think you agree with me that the hemorrhaging of support for Republicans in the suburbs due to Trumpism is very bad politically for Republicans.
Those are the voters Republicans need to win back in order to win nationally, instead of having them vote Democrat for President as they did against Trump. We did see in the down ballot races and in Virginia and other places this year that there are a lot of people willing to vote for Republicans, but not for Trump. The rural and small town voters who are somewhat new to voting Republican are unlikely to go back to being Democrats any time soon.
Been my position all along”
Should we nominate this for Lie of the Year?
I know there is a lot of competition.
Ah yes, “the get back the suburban vote” suicide strategy.
Fortunately it is not going to happen, and it is telling that someone that supported Biden and his agenda wants the Rs to commit political suicide.
The “suburbancentric” R party has gone the way of the dinosaurs and is not coming back.
The Biden Troll represents “mainstream conservatism” about as much as I represent Maoism.

Now, I did vote for Biden, first Democrat I have ever voted for in any election, as a way to oppose Trump. Like many who voted for Biden, I do not like most of what I see.
So how do Republicans win back these voters? Writing them off is not smart politics.

Zzzzzzzz…..what unmitigated horse crap.
The Biden Troll, who tried to sell Hillary Clinton here as bipartisan, non-partisan and moderate, and then voted for Biden and the entire far left agenda, has the chutzpah to call someone else a pathological liar?
Nobody wants your vote back. You own the Biden agenda, the woke culture, the cancel culture and all its consequences.
Why don’t you just go back to whatever far left cesspool you hang out in and enjoy your “victory”.

To clarify, jason’s lies and distortions aside, he will stay home and not vote like the coward that he is.
I doubt that the Clinton Groupies first Drat vote was for his Fraudulency.
You would think Comedy et al would have offered a deal for Ghislane to name names.
I know I will be a minority here, but I don’t think Ghislaine Maxwell is responsible for Epstein’s crimes, and I am skeptical about people with highly coached people with a financial interest testifying decades later.
Outside the purported victims, not one household member or other witness seems to have observed anything illegal by Ghislaine Maxwell.
She “procured” girls for Epstein? Give me a break, unless she kidnapped them and abused them herself I don’t see the crime.
I think she was railroaded by our new woke judicial system.
And you will sit home and not vote like the coward you.”
I will compare my vote for Trump to your voting for Biden’s agenda anytime.
And you are a coward, you voted for Biden’s agenda and are too much of a pussy to own up to it.

Bet on it.
He certainly voted for Hillary. He was so sure she would win he gave me 100-1 odds.
He actually thought she was a “better person” than Trump, a “reach across the aisle moderate”, bipartisan and non-partisan.
You will no longer vote.
You are a coward who has turned his back on America.

The underage sex abuse victims were not “bimbos.”
The PATTERN of Maxwell approaching these girls & then introducing them to Epstein makes her a procuress in my view, & more importantly in the view of the jury too. The jury deliberated for 6 days & acquitted her on one count– doesn’t sound to me like the jury rubber stamped anything.
Did not vote for Hillary. I offered a lot of money to anyone who would find any post that said I ever used the term “moderate” or bi partisan in reference to her.
I said she was a political hack who would be guided by polls, unlike true believers like Sanders and Obama.
jason continuously said that he would vote for Hillary before he voted for Trump and that her views on foreign policy were far more like his own.

As another poster said, this isn’t going to make me popular here:
Prosecutors traditionally draw a sharp distinction between oarhouse proprietors & oarhouse patrons.
I don’t want to chase the johns around, trying to prove that they KNEW FOR A FACT that the post-pubescent victims were underage.
There are now long lines for Covid tests and no instant tests at the stores.
Way to go.
Ordinarily I would tend to agree with that, mnw.
However, these involved higher ups, who, like usual, go free.
But this is a crazy country now. Parading in Congress gets you 11 months in jail on pre trial, while a Fib agent (Whitler kidnapping hoax lead) gets 2 days in jail for violently hitting his spouse.
Or an Antifa type does 30:days community service for trying to blind federal officers in Portland.
Is Tina calling rape of underage girls “dikking bimbos?”
Dikking bimbos is in reference to bj.
You can thank Powell for this. While he lied about Iraq, he did not lie about bj,

I never prosecuted these cases at either the state or federal level. However, at the state level, case law was that a good faith mistake as to age WAS a valid defense– & it was a jury issue as to whether the mistake was in good faith.
I’m not too happy about the phrase “falling” for some defense, btw– I made my own decisions based on what LE brought in. For every case I issued, I probably declined four.
Again, my instinct is just not to like like the order of battle here, contemplating the prosecution of Epstein’s guests on these facts, but I haven’t studied up on this case.
I wish news accounts about federal criminal cases would take a stab at estimating the federal Guidelines sentence RANGE– INSTEAD OF taking the maximum statutory sentence for each count of conviction & then STACKING them too, to wit:
“Maxwell Faces Possible Sentence of 65 Years”
Oh… sure she does. /s
I thought the point of statutory rape laws was to defeat the “Hey, she looked 18” defense. Maybe juries do accept the idea it ok to have sex with 14 year olds.

Reagan, BY FAR, the best president of all those listed in #212 above.
ALL of the animals in the barnyard KNOW this.
Whoever of the rest listed who comes in second is still WAY behind Reagan.
And Reagan was dealing with a heavy D congress, but still got Tip O’Neill to cooperate with him.
Actually, Walt, while Dems did have fairly comfortable House majorities the whole time Reagan was President, Congress as a whole during the Reagan years was split while O’Neill was Speaker.
Howard Baker served as Senate Majority Leader from 1981 to 1985 under Reagan while Bob Dole served in that position from 1985 to 1987 during a time when Republicans held the Senate.
Democrats would not regain control of the Senate till 1987. Tip O’Neill retired in the 1986 elections and exited the House just as Democrats regained control of the Senate after six years in the minority in the Upper Chamber.
Wes,
You are correct. Reagan did have R majorities in U.S. Senate.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Cow meant to say Reagan had to deal with a
heavy D House of Representatives, not Congress.
I wonder why they did not extend the poll to 50 years and include Carter.

The Biden Troll thinks Hillary Clinton is not a true believer? Is that why he thinks she is pragmatic and compromising?
Hillary is a hardcore doctrinaire socialist, rigidly ideological. She supports every woke and radical policy the Dems are advocating.
I guess the Biden Troll is consistently delusional, he actually thought Jeb Bush was a viable candidate for President.

Some states allow a good faith as to age defense; most don’t.
However no state would allow such a defense where the victim is 14, as you posit.
I don’t know how old the victims were on pedo island when the bigshots (in whom Tina is interested) had sex with them. I don’t know what jurisdiction pedi island is in.
The age of consent varies from state to state. from 16 to 18, with 17 being the norm.
Again, as a practical matter, if the age of consent is 17, & the victim is 16… you’re just not going to find many prosecutors who are interested in charging that case.
For what Epstein & Maxwell did, enticing & transporting minors for purposes of sexual exploitation, consent is not a defense, & the federal penalties are harsh.
Here is proof why there is no prosectution of the men in the espstein matter.

While the Biden Troll gives Andrew Cuomo a pass while trolling about Trump being a “bad person”, the policies he voted for are causing millions of poor people to have a hard time.
No wonder he doesn’t want to own up to his vote.
“The coronavirus pandemic has led to a new era of inflation inequality, economists warn, in which poor households bear the brunt of rising prices.
That’s because a bigger portion of their budget goes toward categories that have spiked in cost. Food is up 6.4% over the past year, for example, while gasoline jumped a whopping 58%. And now many people are facing those higher prices as federal stimulus programs fade away.
“They’re essentially looking to stretch a dollar most days,” said Chris Wimer, co-director of the Center on Poverty & Social Policy at Columbia University. “It’s going to lead to difficult choices between putting gas in the car or paying for your kids’ child care or putting food on the table.”
A recent analysis by the Penn Wharton Budget Model found that low- and middle-income households spent about 7% more in 2021 for the same products they bought in 2020 or in 2019. That translates into about $3,500 for the average household.
By contrast, spending by wealthy households went up by only 6%.
Shift in spending for the wealthy
This disparity is typical during inflationary periods, said Kent Smetters, who directs the Penn Wharton model. But since the 1980s — the last time prices rose this quickly — higher-income households have shifted more of their spending away from goods and toward services. For example, in 2020, food was 12.7% of the budget for the top 5% of households, compared with 16% of the budget for the bottom 20%.
Meanwhile, pandemic-related production disruptions have driven up the costs of commodities that poor households rely on.
“What they happen to be buying has been hit harder by the supply crunch,” Smetters said. “It’s broader-based than in the past.”
The findings dovetail with an analysis of credit and debit card data by Harvard Business School economist Alberto Cavallo at the start of the pandemic. He showed that low-income consumers experienced price increases that were roughly double those of wealthier ones.”

For what Epstein & Maxwell did, enticing & transporting minors for purposes of sexual exploitation”
I have seen zero evidence Maxwell personally enticed and transported minors for purposes of sexual exploitation.
The person who “transported” them was Epstein. The person who exploited them was Epstein.
In my view, Maxwell was an employee following orders and about as responsible as the pilot or the cook. The pilot “transported” the minors, the cook fed them.
Maybe she could have been charged as some kind of accessory, if there is such a thing.
In my view she was railroaded and the charges for which she was convicted were bogus. The prosecutors put on a dog and pony show using a lot of emotion and innuendo and very few witnesses and facts.
Because that moron JeffP was here saying the testimony was “damaging to Trump” (it wasn’t) I actually read it all.
I think the people here jumping on the conviction bandwagon just read the MSM narratives and not the actual testimony, which I found contrived and unconvincing, at least as it pertained to Maxwell.
Epstein died, it was unfair to put Maxwell on trial as a stand in.
mnw and Bitter,
The age of consent in Cow years is 4.
(which is equivalent to something like 22 in human years)
Yeah, sure that was the only time he went and only with that 22 year old.
All for “humanitarian reasons” too.
How many years did the Clinton Groupie talk up her Thighness?
It was daily.
How many times did we hear about the Russian hoax?
They fell hard for that one too.

When you consider these five convictions for Maxwell, this picture becomes more glaring in the total absence of prosecution for the men on the other end of these flights.
All because such men included bj and the Microsoft Ghoul.

The DOJ and Ghislaine Maxwell’s lawyers have made a deal that her “little black book” of contacts will never be made public
https://thetimes.co.uk/article/ghislaine-maxwells-little-black-book-to-remain-secret-in-court-deal-dvjzzw85m
I don’t know why her lawyers would agree to that. She only had that book for leverage.
I’ve been looking at the fed statutes relating to sex crimes– something of which I had no actual experience whatever. (I prosecuted plenty of plain old sex assaults at the state level.)
All the fed statutes define “a minor” as a person under the age of 18.
To convict Clinton or Bill Gates of sexual exploitation of a minor, my first quick take is that they “either knew or recklessly disregarded” the victim’s age, & that they traveled with intent to have sex with a minor(s). On its face, this looks like a tough burden for a prosecutor to meet.
I don’t understand what type of federal criminal charge(s) Turley envisions for the men who were Epstein’s guests on pedo island. And I don’t really care. While I never prosecuted a federal sex crime, I knew those who did prosecute such cases for nearly 30 years. I can tell you this: the age of the victim needed to be closer to 12 than 17 to create a case that would be indicted.
And now, my interest in this area of federal criminal law is officially exhausted… How ’bout those Blues, huh?
Seems to me if Clinton had sex with a minor on the island he would be culpable than Maxwell.

In her closing argument, Maxwell’s lawyer told the jury that her client “knew nothing about Epstein’s depraved appetite for young girls.”
If you make an argument that dumb, the jury may resent it as an insult to their intelligence, & disregard what you say that isn’t dumb.
I’d also be concerned that arguing “my client knew nothing” might cause the jury to wonder, “Then why didn’t she testify & tell us that herself?”
236 Sheep
He’s got Axne (D-inc; IA) as a tossup, & Yvette Harrell (R-inc; NM) as a tossup!
1) I’d give 5-1 odds that Axne loses– she’s got a district Trump carried; this is a dreadful looking year for DEMs– much worse than last time; and even more importantly, a Selzer poll earlier this year showed the DEM brand imploding in IA. Remember that poll? Everybody was shocked by it, but because it was Ann Selzer, nobody questioned it.
2) I’d give even better odds that Harrell wins. She knocked off a DEM incumbent in 2020. Now Harrell has the Biden regime’s open border record, & the regime’s anti-fossil fuel policies, to use against her (as yet unknown) DEM opponent– last time, all Harrell had to run on were her suspicions about these things. Now she has facts, not suspicions. In 2020, the then-incumbent DEM ran away from Biden as hard as she could. She even ran ads explaining why she opposed Biden’s energy proposals– and Harrell still beat her.
Conclusion: Cook’s reported state of play looks too DEM-friendly to me. Imagine that! If Cook is this messed up on Axne & Harrell, it makes me wonder how many other races he messed up that I HAVEN’T followed.

In her closing argument, Maxwell’s lawyer told the jury that her client “knew nothing about Epstein’s depraved appetite for young girls.”
Zzzzzz….so what?
Is Maxwell on trial about “what she knew about Epstein’s sex life”?
That is what I would have asked in the jury room.
Maxwell would be stupid to admit she knew anything about his “depraved appetite” because THEN the jury could say well why did she stay on then.
That is another reason why I think this trial was a travesty, Maxwell has been convicted as a stand in for the real criminals.
Maxwell was not Epstein’s nanny nor his moral counselor.
The prosecution presented her as Epstein’s “spouse” and partner in crime, but actually she was an employee, not a partner, and the fact that she slept with him or not should not have been material to the case.
“Procuring 14 year olds” is not a crime if it is done for legitimate reasons. If Epstein was holding a teen pageant on his island that would not be illegal. When Epstein introduced one of the teens to Trump at Mar-el-Lago hoping to get into Trump’s pageant, that was not a crime despite what JeffP the moron said.
The entire case is based on the word of three women who stand to make a lot of money as victims about something that happened decades ago. Nobody else in the households over many years saw Maxwell do anything illegal.
I didn’t see the whole trial, but I read at lot of the testimony. From what I read, I would never have convicted her.
“Is Maxwell on trial for what she knew about Epstein’s sex life?”
Yes. She was charged as a co-conspirator of Epstein’s in multiple counts. IF she knew that Epstein was a sexual predator, that would be evidence that she was in fact Epstein’s co-conspirator IN A CRIME, and not an innocent dupe. Such evidence would be relevant as to her guilty knowledge (“mens rea”) of the conspiracy’s criminal objective, I think.
disclaimer: I’m not a judge & did not go to Yale Law like Meldrin!
So it sounds to me like if she admitted “knowing Epstein’s depraved appetite for minors” she might as well plead guilty.
So I don’t think it was “dumb” to deny it.
But of course I am not arguing about what a co-conspirator is, what I a skeptical about are the “co-conspirator” charges to begin with.
I don’t think she is a co-conspirator. Epstein was the billionaire, not her. She worked FOR him, not WITH him.
#240, mnw, you wrote “I’d give even better odds that Harrell wins. She knocked off a DEM incumbent in 2020. Now Harrell has the Biden regime’s open border record, & the regime’s anti-fossil fuel policies, to use against her (as yet unknown) DEM opponent– last time, all Harrell had to run on were her suspicions about these things. Now she has facts, not suspicions. In 2020, the then-incumbent DEM ran away from Biden as hard as she could. She even ran ads explaining why she opposed Biden’s energy proposals– and Harrell still beat her.”
If Harrell was running for reelection in the same district in which she won in 2020, then I’d agree 100% with you and say that she’d be the prohibitive favorite. But NM Democrats gerrymandered the congressional districts so that the western part of Albuquerque is now in the same NM-02 as the most of southern and southeastern NM (including Harrell’s home turf), and the more Republican portions of Harrell’s current district are in a NM-01 that includes the rest of Albuquerque (and is the most heavily Democratic district in the state) and in a NM-03 that includes hyper-Democrat Santa Fe and Taos and is composed of mostly new territory for Harrell.
Harrell represents the current NM-02 and most likely will run in the new NM-02, which, as I mentioned, includes her home base and has more of her old CD than any other of the new districts. The partisan lean of NM-02, as measured by 538.com, went from R+14 to D+4, an 18-point swing, and the CD now favors whoever wins the Democratic primary. The NM-02 went from being a comfortably Republican CD that only elected one Democrat in the past several decades (Torres-Small in the toxic environment for Republicans of 2018) to a CD that leans Democratic about a much as the traditionally Democratic NM-03 (which went from D+14 to D+5).
Herrell can win the NM-02 in 2022, and a strong GOP candidate could win NM-03 as well, but in each case the Democrat likely will be favored. In each of those districts, the Republican nominee needs to capture a much higher percentage of the Hispanic vote in 2022 than Republicans did between 2016 and 2020. I am hopefully optimistic that the swings towards the GOP that we’ve seen among Hispanics during the past two years, particularly in rural areas, will continue this coming year and that NM (and AZ and NV) will catch up with TX’s gains, but I wouldn’t call Herrell’s reelection bid a “toss-up,” much less “leans Republican,” just yet.
Sounds like MAXWELL is not too SMART.
(Get it?)

MO Republicans disappointed again with redistricting by not going after the KC district. DEMs brute force to maximize their gains where they can but the GOP is leaving a lot of low hanging fruit. I’m still expecting and NY bloodbath and a PA Supreme Court dem gerrymander and we are not leveraging our power in states to offset when we can.
If KY, TN, and KS don’t take Louisville, Nashville, and KC, Kansas then they clearly aren’t playing to win.
Hope everyone has a safe and happy New Year’s! (Real Michael)
Same to you Real Michael.
Marxists are so touchy:
“Readers of the British newspaper, The Guardian, are accusing the outlet of deactivating an online poll that asked readers to vote on “Person of the Year” after it became apparent that J.K. Rowling would handily win.
“Tell us: who is your 2021 person of the year?” ran the headline, posted on Dec. 15, with the subtitle, “Time Magazine chose billionaire Tesla boss Elon Musk – but who would be your choice?” A short time later, when Rowling was far and away in the lead, the voting form disappeared, as did the results. A message in small print stated, “This form has been deactivated and is closed to any further submissions.””
If the ignorant masses don’t pick the right person of the year, the exalted left wing elites will pick for them.
My predictions for 2022:
Amoral Scumbag will continue to ignore the fact Biden is a train wreck as President and will continue to drive by to talk about Trump, Fauci and me.
The Biden Troll will continue to drive by and fail to own up to the fact he promoted and voted for the far left agenda, radical policies and woke culture the Dems are implementing and now owns them.
Bitter will continue to pretend the crime stats, drug culture and political corruption in Philadelphia do not actually pertain to Philadelphia, just to Bad Philadelphia. To justify this, he will say Rittenhouse Square has a lower crime rate than other areas. Move on.
Bitter will continue to disparage the deplorables and the working class by saying they live in cultural deserts and that he would rather be shot than live close to any. At the same time he will say that yes, he would like to see them in the R party, as long as they follow whatever the suburban country club elites tell them they should follow.
Walt will continue to spend 20 hours a day doing chores, maybe as a way to redeem himself for all the pillaging he did during the Crusades.
NYC will continue to claim WE ARE WINNING on immigration as millions more cross the border and will continue to give Trump a pass on everything he attacks other politicians for doing. There will be no conservative principle he won’t sell out for Trump. He will also continue to claim that if you don’t support deadenders, you must not support the primary system. Chuck Schumer will continue to view him as a valuable asset and propaganda tool and will send him a “Chuckie Loves You” mug.
Tina will continue her zero tolerance RINO policy and 100% litmus test every R and every statement and vote. As a result, at least 512 newly minted RINOS will be created in 2022. She will also create 63 new nicknames, and 54 will be funny.
wes will continue to insist the Dems could not have stolen PA, NV, WI, MI, GA and AZ because they did not steal NC. This will continue not to make sense to anyone else, but here at HHR we
encourage independent thinking.
Meldrim will continue to insist fascism and discrimination are ok as long as practiced by private businesses. He will continue to claim that “show me your papers” is actually “freedom to run your own business”. He will propose the unvaccinated and those with natural immunity wear
a yellow Star of David on their clothes to make it easier to practice freedom.
Neville Allen will continue to claim it would have been better for Hitler and Stalin and Japan to have divided Europe, Asia, Africa, the Middle East and South America among themselves because it would have brought “peace in our time” to the US. Yes, they would have killed tens of millions more in ethnic and ideological cleansing, but it would have been worth it and the US would still have Canada to (fair) trade with.
Tgca will return and claim that during his absence he became an expert in 28 more fields.
Happy New Year!

Well, what about jason?

He and Ma will hope to have another successful fishing season and continue to reel in some big ones using premium bait.
jason,
Maybe you are most of those things, but Cow does not believe you are a six-headed viper.
Thanks cow, I love compliments.
I see that the international business man is still pretending to be a deplorable and acting as the Deplorable Whisperer.
I agree with Cash Cow that the international businessman is not a 6-headed viper. He is just a regular viper.
250 SoHope
SoHope is correct. 6R-2D, same as last time.
Meldrin & I discussed MO redistricting at length here.
I first argued strongly that MO would leave the AA DEM Congressman in KC (Wheat) alone, because there has been a de facto bargain in place forever– the DEMs get 2 AAs, & the GOP takes the rest. Both sides liked this, & it avoids claims of racial gerrymandering by the GOP.
Meldrin, & the Wise Men at RRH, talked me around– I changed my mind. I thought that the GOP (which controls everything in MO) wouldn’t leave money on the table for once.
WRONG! When you look at how the MO GOP behaves, it has been timid even though MO has turned ruby red.
Quite a disappointment. I will trust my own instincts about MO in future– and not Meldrin’s thoughtful & persuasive map.
He is just a regular viper.”
Wow, everyone in a magnanimous mood, the compliments just keep coming.
Well at least mnw has abandoned the “AA District” BS, in favor of the more accurate AA DEM Congressman.
It seems like the GOP is taking a more long term approach to redistricting, shoring up R districts rather than trying to maximize the short term gains. The rationale is that in the future the GOP could well lose some of the marginal seats in a less favorable environment. It is a risk averse strategy, no doubt, but not every year is going to look as good on paper as 2022 does.
I would have gone for the MO seat, personally. I would not go for a lot of seats that only look good for 2022 however.
HOW did I “abandon” the “AA District BS,” exactly? Did Wheat get a skin change that I didn’t hear about? I must’ve missed that. I’d wrongly assumed he was still black, I guess. And now he has a much safer seat! They’re stripping out the most Trump-y parts.
The GOP state legislator, who announced the new proposed GOP map, made implied reference to WANTING to keep the AA District in KC, fwiw. “We think this new map will KEEP MO’s Congressional delegation looking like MO does.”
I didn’t “abandon” one GD thing.
If it makes Jason feel better, if I am killed in Philadelphia, there will be many deplorables around my body. There are more deplorables in the city than in Jason’s Nowhereville.
Deplorables are good people. Jason lives in a cultural desert. Both can be true.
HOW did I “abandon” the “AA District BS,” exactly?
Because you consistently lied about this being an “AA District” until you were called on the lie.
Hope that answers your question.
I guess there is no New Year’s truce. In that case, GFY to everybody except Cash Cow.
I feel proud to make Jason’s list for 2022.

No, the homeless and the drug addicts that will then go through your pockets and steal your gold cuff links Gucci wallet and Loro Plano alligator belt are not deplorables.

Yeah, this is almost like making the “All Madden” list.
I guess mnw thinks South Carolina is an “AA state” because Tim Scott is a senator.
I feel proud to make Jason’s list for 2022?
Did you notice Bitter got two mentions?
Do I get any appreciation or thanks? Nooooo….
HHR is a tough place.
I think mnw is a little out of sorts because he didn’t make my list.
He should look at it as an incentive for 2022.

Now you are going to make the poor cow feel left out.

Ok, I will try better to expose your absurd attempt to whitewash the crime and corruption in Philly and your blatant hatred for deplorables next year.
I am sure there is always room for improvement.
More than of looking and Jason has no posts where I expressed hatred of deplorable. Of course, he found many where expressed respect for them. Of course, only one of us supported the deplorables’ candidate twice at the polls. Hint. It was not the Deplorable Whisperer.
RIP, Betty White. She died 17 days short of her 100th birthday. Quitter.

Widow Zook is known for her spiked apple butter.
Is there a quote where Hitler said “I hate Jews”?
Did Obama ever say “I am a flaming liberal”?
Did Amoral Scumbag ever say “I am a lying fraud”?
I rest my case.
So Jason admits there are no posts that prove his BS claims that I hate deplorables. Glad we resolved that before 2022.
There are hundreds of posts where you disparage deplorables.
I am sure more are coming in 2022.
If there are hundreds of posts, it should be easy to find one.
I noted that the goalpost moved from hating to disparaging. By midnight it will be expressing mild disdain.
Bitter admits to disparaging, baby steps, baby steps.
By midnight it will be expressing mild disdain.”
Stop begging.
It’s ok Bitter. I don’t think you are an intentional deplorable hater. I think its a product of your upbringing and where you live an work. In other words, you are culturally conditioned to disparage deplorables.
It is not your fault.
I did not admit to disparaging anybody. I just pointed out you gave up on the word “hates” because you have no proof. Just like you have no proof of disparagement.
Let’s cut to it. Do you think you are a deplorable? Would deplorables think you are a deplorable or just a wealthy international businessman trying to pass as a man of the people. The irony is that the deplorables and I voted the same way in 2016 and 2020. You did not.
Will Tgca appear at midnight?
I didn’t claim to be a deplorable. I don’t even claim to share all of their politics, but at least I don’t pretend their views don’t exist. I just mock your superior and disparaging attitude against working class people which I think are important to the future of the R party.
Here is the deal. We don’t agree on what a winning and long lasting coalition for the R party should look like.
You want to pretend that somehow we agree. We don’t. I am perfectly willing to admit that my view could be wrong and yours could be right.
Let’s leave it at that an celebrate the New Year, hopefully it will be better for all of us.
Since it is New Year’s and we need to start the year on a positive note, I will take back the “hate deplorables”, even though I meant in a a political sense.
I don’t like myself. I don’t consider myself superior to anybody. I wish I had useful job skills. I can’t be a plumber, mechanic, carpenter, etc.
In the spirit of the new year, I will not say GFY to Jason until 2022.
Not sure I can stay up until midnight.

No, no need to thank me, I am more interested in advancing science than I am in material things.
Does anybody want the result of my study that proves that a 17 year old cat does not care where you put the litter box? He goes where he wants.

I can’t recall seeing very many more bizarre statements from a national political figure than this one:
AOC: “Republicans have a strange kind of sexual frustration because they can’t date me.”
Wow! What can one say about THAT? She used to be a barmaid/bartender, so maybe it’s leftover saloon patter from those days.
A possible first runner-up:
Gen. Wesley Clark, during his 2004 campaign for President:
Clark: “I’m for abortion until the head comes out of the womb.”
Also, Walt, Dems didn’t have a majority in both houses of Congress for the whole four years of Carter’s presidency. Republicans assumed majority control of the Senate on 1-3-81 while Carter didn’t leave office till 1-20-81. Thus, for the final 17 days of the Carter Administration, Washington had divided government.
GWB actually had GOP majorities in Congress for longer than four years. From 1-20-01 to 6-5-01, Republicans had the same type of nominal majority in the Senate Dems currently have while Republicans again had more Senators than Dems had from 11-22-02 all the way till 1-3-07.
Who doesn’t want to date a crazy communist Congresswoman, Mnw? She only looks like the donkey from Shrek when she laughs and sounds more vapid than the stereotypical bimbo cannon fodder in an ’80s slasher flick.

Clark is a moron. First in his class at West Point and a Rhodes Scholar, still a moron.
Shortly before the New Hampshire primary, Clark fielded a question about rival John Kerry’s Vietnam experience. “With all due respect,” Clark noted, “he’s a lieutenant and I’m a general.”
The general was trounced by the lieutenant in the primary.
I was hoping Tgca would put in an appearance, I am hoping the poor bastard didn’t starve himself to death.
Let’s start out the year with some controversy:
“The paper – published December 30th by the German agency the ‘Robert Koch Institute’ – included information on the vaccination status of 4,206 individuals who contracted the latest variant of the virus.
Four thousand and twenty people who reported contracting Omicron in the study – which equates to 95.6 percent of total cases – had received at least two doses of COVID-19 vaccines. Twenty-eight percent of the Omicron-positive group had also received a third dose or “booster” shot.
Just 186 people contracting Omicron were unvaccinated in the entire sample, showing that vaccinated individuals were over 21 times as likely to contract the COVID-19 variant.
On December 14th, The National Pulse declared the COVID-19 situation worldwide a “pandemic of the vaccinated”.”
“A look at party identification reveals more Independent voters favor disobeying Presidential mandates – 42% to 31%. For Republicans, it’s 49% – 26%, and for Democrats, 26% say it’s ok to disobey, with 49% believing it’s wrong.”
Color me skeptical 26% of Rs believing in Biden’s mandates.
Maybe they polled the Biden Troll and Amoral Scumbag.
342. Hope that Tgca did not have a run-in with the lastest viral variant, which is highly transmissible and running rampant in urban areas. I know a lot of people who have caught it, but no one who got very sick from it.
Then again, Tgca may simply have decided to take a break from posting to enjoy the holiday season.
Usually he tells us when he is taking a break.
I have to start traveling soon. If I disappear for a few days or weeks don’t get your hopes up.
No sh-t?
Now tell us that has happened with adults too since the beginning.
FAUCI: “If you look at the children that are hospitalized, many of them are hospitalized with COVID, as opposed to because of COVID…if a child goes into the hospital, they automatically get tested for COVID & they get counted as a COVID hospitalized individual.”
Yesterday:
Covid cases worldwide: 1,639,000
Deaths: 5,900
Death rate: 0.0036%
Survival rate: 99.996%
Tgca promised to leave on January 20, 2021 when Biden was sworn in. That promise did not a day.
Tgca hardest hit.

Catch this response from Mary K. Ham to AOC’s statement that she is now, along with her other massive achievements(sarc), the modern-times Betty Grable —a pin-up girl!!!!!
For single men on this thread and married men who wish to participate and lesbians, please answer the following:
1-Is AOC attractive?
2- Is your criticism of her vast intellect due to your carnal desire for her?
3- With respect to above #2, would you change your answer if she said yes to an indulgence with you?
My answers:
1- Good figure combined with a horse face. Not a good mix. Ask Stormy Daniels
2- Are you kidding?!
3- No and it would probably buttress my original thinking that she misfires in every aspect of life

The Biden Troll is an “analyst”?
Who knew?
“Critics blasted President Biden on Wednesday after he posted a tweet boasting about the state of the US economy and referencing “one analyst” who touted him as having the “strongest first-year economic track record” in half a century.
“We’re ending 2021 with what one analyst described as the strongest first-year economic track record of any president in the last 50 years,” read the message from the @POTUS account. “Let’s keep the progress going.”

I think AOC is physically attractive. I am not attracted to her at all. Both can be true.

I think AOC is physically attractive”
Geezus, she looks like she is on Tgca’s diet and as pointed out above has a horse face.
The A-hole has come a long way from Kate Upton if he thinks AOC is attractive.
that any criticism of you from a female, say Tina and lisab, is because she wants to engage with you in the old in-and-out?”
I already think all women want to have sex with me, except my wife.
1) Moderately; starting to look a bit past her sell-by date, though.
2) HUH? Hell, no.
2) No, never… not even if I was still in the game.
I wonder what contortions Kristol had to go through to support a old corrupt leftist party hack like McAuliffe instead of someone like Youngkin.

Of course, Amoral Scumbag has mentioned Fauci 100 more times than he has mentioned Biden, so suck it Nicolle.
“MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace, host of “Deadline: White House,” and her guests discussed former President Trump about two-and-a-half times as often as President Biden in 2021, despite the latter being the current office-holder.
A Grabien transcript search found the word “Trump” was uttered on the show 11,668 times from Jan. 20, when Biden succeeded Trump, to Dec. 30. As for Biden, his name was mentioned just 4,710 times, nearly 2.5 times less often on Wallace’s program, which airs weekdays from 4-6 p.m. ET and features a mixture of reporters and left-leaning pundits.”

Liz Cheney comes clean.
I am sure the Biden Troll will applaud.
“I’m very focused right now on my re-election and on the work of the select committee,” Cheney responded. “I can tell you that that the single most important thing, though, is to ensure that Donald Trump is not the Republican nominee and that he certainly is not anywhere close to the Oval Office ever again.”
Translation: we have decided what the “most important thing is” first and then we can have an “investigation” later.

2) In no way because I have no sexual interest in her while I’m sober.

Notice alcohol is the only thing that can trigger any kind of sensual interest in me for AOC.

“U.S.—According to a poll conducted by the Pew Research Center, Americans’ attitudes toward Dr. Fauci are changing. In a sample of 50,000 respondents, 5% of Americans believe Fauci to be a hero of science, 3% see him as an essential voice for COVID preparedness, and 90% support loading him into a medieval-style catapult and tossing him into an active volcano.
“We are surprised by these results, as ‘tossing Fauci in a volcano’ wasn’t even one of the options on the survey,” said a spokesperson for Pew. “Thousands of people just wrote that in.”
Health experts say the trends in public opinion are “very concerning” and may point to decreased trust in lying political hacks who dress up in lab coats and claim to speak for science.”

AOC scores decently in the “political world scale” but is nonexistent on the “saw her at the club scale” unless it’s 2:01am, I’m *%$#faced, and she’s asking to see my snow globe collection at home. In that case I’m sure we’d both be disappointed in the morning.
Her objective stats are:
Body – 7.5
Face – 5
Personality – 2 (not talking politics)
Voice – 0

“Now, just imagine what a disaster a President Ocasio-Cortez would be: “If Xi Jinping is mad he can’t date me, he can just say that instead of projecting his sexual frustrations onto my woke military.”
If you didn’t already think the NFL was a woke joke, evidently Antonio Brown took off his jersey and gear, flung it into the stands, ran half naked into the end zone, did some jumping jacks, gave the peace sign, and ran into the tunnel.
Probably won’t be fined, after all players should be allowed to “express their feelings”.
Normal.
I am sure Bitter enjoyed it as much as he enjoys reading woke messages on player’s helmets and in the end zone.
Dang….. buck-toothed ….could eat a sandwich through a fence?
“Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the buck-toothed Member of Congress from Queens, is upset people have noticed her hypocrisy. She’s on vacation in Florida while her district is being crushed by COVID cases. She once attacked Senator Ted Cruz for doing the same thing with a trip to Mexico, now she’s pretending it’s different when she does it.
Moreover, she’s pretending every Republican critical of her hypocrisy simply wants to sleep with her. In response to a picture of the Member of Congress who could eat a sandwich through a fence and her boyfriend, AOC tweeted, “It’s starting to get old ignoring the very obvious, strange, and deranged sexual frustrations that underpin the Republican fixation on me, women, & LGBT+ people in general.”
It couldn’t possibly be that she’s a fraud – the “woe is me” brat with the six-figure salary driving a Tesla, living in one of the most expensive buildings in DC, pretending to be just a former bartender scraping by – now, could it?”
Lisab has been quiet lately. Maybe she is out looking for her puppet, Tgca.

From the liberal The Hill:
“After Barack Obama’s 2008 White House victory, Democrats believed they had created an unbreakable “coalition of the ascendant” voters, driven by increasing participation of minority groups and college-educated women. But recent left-wing economic and policy woes have brought about a demographic realignment that threatens to sink Democrats’ chances not just for 2022, but for the next several decades.
4 in 10 Republican voters approve of Jan. 6 panel, survey finds
As President Biden’s approval ratings have tanked with nonwhite voters, the Democratic Party increasingly has become dominated by liberal white women who virtue-signal with suburban lawn signs and then henpeck people in supermarkets to pull their face masks up over their noses. Or, put more simply, the Democratic Party is at risk of becoming a party of “Karens.” Recent polling suggests that Hispanic and Black voters are abandoning the party — many of these individuals are being harmed by the surging inflation, anti-business COVID measures, and exploding crime rates in urban areas brought about by a year of left-wing measures.”
Last night, I used the AOC Doctrine on a Liberal woman in a NC town near mine. I have known Erika for years.
She started loudly mao-maoing me about Jan. 6th. I told her that she is saying this to me due to her frustration that I have not asked any sexual favors from her. The AOC Doctrine!!
She became speechless, then finally said all flushed–What are you talking about?! I quickly explained The Doctrine and just as quickly Erica walked away in a huff!
Addendum- Erika is a very nice woman but a true MSNBC Democrat! She’ll laugh about it the next time we visit!
Say what you want about Antonio Brown, it looks like he stands on principle (pun intended).
Evidently he only needed one more TD catch to earn a $333,000 bonus, 55 more yards for another $333,000 and 8 more catches for a another $333,000 bonus.
Conceivably he could have accomplished at least 2 of those if he just complied with the coach request to enter the game in the 3rd quarter.
I would have done the unprincipled thing, racked up the $666,000 and THEN given the finger to woke football.
Sue me.
She’ll laugh about it the next time we visit!”

Scary.
Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) is open to reengaging on the climate and child care provisions in President Biden’s Build Back Better agenda if the White House removes the enhanced child tax credit from the $1.75 trillion package — or dramatically lowers the income caps for eligible families, people familiar with the matter tell Axios”
Really scary.
Of course, “people familiar with the matter” could be BS.
It looks as if Treasury yields are finally starting to take note that inflation isn’t transitory.
I consider myself “familiar with the matter” and Axios didn’t ask me anything.
Supposedly if we print and spend trillions more on BBB it will lower inflation.
Statues will be erected everywhere for Biden as the man who debunked the theory of supply and demand.
So what happened to Tgca?
Died/hospitalized with Covid?

I think that Tgca is gone. Had he just been leaving it would have been some swan song post. His later posts were indicative of someone who was not well in the head.
I wish nothing bad on him, but reading comments without the distractions and silly taunting is a refreshing.
It is simply odd that the person who posts most about Tgca missing is the one who was the target of most of his venom.
I only come here for the distractions and silly taunting myself, didn’t know there would be other reasons.
I don’t know what the HHR rules are to declare someone dead.
We can’t have a memorial until that is decided.
I have an eternal debt of gratitude to Tgca.
When NYC told me I “should go back to where I came from”, Tgca said that to keep me from being deported he would marry me.
It is obvious that despite all his faults, Tgca had a heart of gold.
If he does come back, I will of course deny I was in my right mind when I wrote that.
So Omicron basically is indistinguishable from the common cold–so isn’t this the lucky break we have been waiting for?
Shouldn’t we just let it spread so everyone gets it and then we can just put all this behind us and finally move on from Covid?
CDM – Tgca was a vicious, terrible person. However, I don’t like HHR shrinking. I agree that not having to read thousands of his posts is a relief. I just thought he would make an exit rant. I doubt he was banned.
I meant cancelled by the Biden administration, not by Dave.
DW is a heartless bastard.
What will the poor bastards at MSNBC and CNN and the rest of the MSM do without Covid?
He wants to throw hundreds of “journalists” under the bus?
Has the US reached the 15k cases a day yet?
That was the number I arbitrarily decided was necessary for me to stop blaming Trump for genocide.
I read where it is at 300k a day now. I think if it gets to a million a day it would be bad for Biden.
“CLEVELAND, OH—Local unvaccinated man Chuck Dornley is feeling very left out this holiday season, as all his vaccinated friends have now contracted COVID.

BIDEN: “[My wife’s friend] was sayin’ ‘do you realize it’s over 5 dollars for a pound of hamburger meat?!’ 5 dollars. Well this is partly, you know, the pound of beef today costs 5 bucks compared to less than 4 bucks before the pandemic.”
Everything costs more today because it costs more than before the pandemic.
Corey will probably come by to praise Biden for knowing the price of meat.
Bobby Rush retiring.
Elizabeth Holmes guilty on 4 of 11 counts.

Flight delayed an hour and half.
Means not getting back to IAD until @ 1:30 a.m. then deplane, go get luggage, get bus to parking lot and then a 1 1/2 hour drive home.
PLUS, no place at the airport sells hay.
If I never fly again..ok with me.
Going thru security is such a pain in the azz. Wearing a frigging mask all the time is sh!tty. Navigating all the electronic gizmos to self check in a pain in the azz. Airport food is way overpriced and tastes like crap. Drive to the airport is tolly and crappy.
Walt tells me how fun and simple things were related to flying back in the 1970s.
He says you could smoke in the airport and on plane!
No masks!
No security!
They fed you free drinks and food.
I think he is trying to pull a fast one on me. I think he is lying.
Did Walt tell you about how he used to travel in style on camels?
*retiring from Congress* because she was found guilty of 4 out of 11 charges?”
Rumor is he would have stayed had she only had 2 convictions. 3 was iffy and 4 he was outahere.
Those were the days
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camel_train#/media/File:The_Camel_Train.jpg
Six convictions and he would have resigned on the spot. And, had Holmes been found guilty on all 11 counts, he would have given all of his money to the Jimmy Fund and become a cloistered monk. Bobby Rush was the only man to defeat Barack Obama in an election, but the call of politics is nothing next to the pull of Theranos.

There are no crosstabs yet, but USA Today was really motivated to start a new narrative in the new election year. Expect others to follow.

Fwiw, CNBC/Change (D) has Biden’s JA at 44/56 today– a new low. His previous worst in this poll was 54% disappv.
Simultaneously, Change ALSO shows the Generic ballot preference going from GOP +8 last time, to DEM +2 today! A 10-point swing toward the DEMs in one month! Who knew? Looks like Happy Days Are Here Again, I guess.

The second sentence is inaccurate. To wit:
In the GCB, CNBC/Change went from a Dem. +2 to today’s Dem. +1.
The Suffolk/USA Today Poll went from the previous CGB of R+8 to today’s D+ 1-2.
With respect to the Suffolk/USA Today Poll, the field dates for the poll were conducted during the week between Christmas and New Year’s Day. Other than Rasmussen(less), no other serious pollster did or would poll during that time. It’s polling malpractice!

? poll. Nor surprisingly, most Republicans (and plurality of Americans) don’t trust the FBI. Overwhelming majority of Republicans say FBI is a “gestapo” for Joe Biden:
Even with MSM bogus questions Biden is still underwater.
“Efforts to help their wallets”? Puhhhhhleeeeze…
President Biden’s disapproval rating reached a new high in December, according to a new CNBC-Change Research poll.
Overall, the survey showed 56 percent of voters disapproved of Biden’s performance in office, an uptick from 54 percent in September and 49 percent in April.
His approval rating now stands at 44 percent.
– ADVERTISEMENT –
“Biden was particularly hard hit when it came to the public’s opinion of his handling of the economy and the COVID-19 pandemic.
Specifically, the poll indicated that 60 percent of respondents disapproved of Biden’s handling of the economy and 55 percent disapproved of his pandemic response.
For the economy, 72 percent said they disapprove of Biden’s management of the price of everyday goods, and 66 percent said they did not approve of the president’s efforts to help their wallets.”
More on the FBI poll. Politicizing the agency is killing its reputation.
“Fifty percent of voters now believe the FBI director is influenced by the president in his decision-making, while only 26% believe Wray is truly independent of the administration, and another 25% are not sure. That’s a near-complete reversal from May 2017, when 53% believed the FBI director was truly independent and 26% thought he was influenced by the president.”
And overall, the public is divided on the FBI, with 46% having a favorable impression and 47% an unfavorable view.
Rasmussen addressed the politics of the agency and said, “President Biden’s strongest supporters have the most favorable impression of the FBI. Among voters who ‘Strongly Approve’ of Biden’s job performance as president, 86% view the FBI favorably. By comparison, among voters who ‘Strongly Disapprove’ of Biden’s performance, only 19% have a favorable impression of the FBI.”

The Biden Agenda is exactly what Biden said he was going to do in the campaign. There are no surprises. The Biden Troll voted for that far left agenda, and he voted for a communist for VP.
He says he “doesn’t like what he sees? Why not? What has Biden done that he did and Kamala did not promise to do?
The right question for the Biden Troll is not what Biden policies he doesn’t support, it is what Biden Policies he is surprised by. Should be good.
“Thanks man, and Happy New Year to you too.”
-Much appreciated.

I guess we have to revoke NYC’s HHR Macho Man Award given when he walked into the hospital after being shot and told the nurses it was just a scratch. Now he says he fainted with Covid?
Or maybe just award him the HHR Wimp Award.
Washington reveals the new name for their NFL team:
Washington Red Dermises
jason,
My friends have been brutal the past week about that. Not really sure what happened. One moment I felt a little queasy, next minute my wife is throwing a cup of water on me and I’m face down in a pool of blood. Crazy. Never really had a fever or much of a cough, but was shaky all last week. Last 2 days have been a little bit better, but now I’m starting to get sinus headaches. Not sure if a fall-out from the fall.
Oh well. We all have our cross to bear! Plus, we got some nice fruit baskets out of it!
I think by calling on Youngkin to fix the stranding problem on I-95, Democrats are in effect calling for a coup and refusing to accept the election results which called for Youngkin to be sworn in Jan 15.
Hello Liz Cheney?
Washington Red Dermises”
I liked Washington Wokers better, but it was the runner up.
Please don’t let the CDC know about your fainting spell. They will lock down the country due to this new threatening symptom.
Nice fruit basket is an oxymoron.

Here is my analysis of percentage of blame for the key figures in the 1986 Boston Red Sox loss of Game 6 (and 7) of the World Series.
John McNamara 55%
1) Roger Clemens had yielded only 4 hits through seven innings and was still dominating the Mets in Game Six, and everyone involved (including closer Calvin Schiraldi) expected Boston to ride Clemens all the way to the title in Game Six, where he would only come out if the Mets started to ding him. According to Clemens, he told McNamara after 7 innings of work that he had a blister but it only affected his slider, and he could continue. McNamara says Clemens begged to come out of the game. Who lied? Clearly it was McNamara. Clemens was a fierce competitor who would never ask out of a game–especially one where he could be on the mound only six outs later to celebrate a World Series win. Furthermore, Clemens was seen in the dugout with his batting helmet on expecting to hit in the top of the 8th.
2) Adding to the mistake of pulling Clemens in the after 7 innings, the Red Sox had Dave Henderson on 2nd with one out in the top of the 8th, and instead of bring up slugger Don Baylor to hit for Clemens, McNamara sent rookie and light-hitting Mike Greenwell to the plate, and he struck out on three weak swings.
3) With only a 3-2 lead going into the bottom of the 8th, McNamara errored in asking Schiraldi for a two-inning save. He was the best Red Sox reliever, having taken the closer job from Bob Stanley, and should have been reserved for the potential save in the bottom of the ninth. Instead, Schiraldi struggled in the 8th inning, giving up a couple of hits, and after a sacrifice, intentional walk, and bases loaded sac fly to tie the game, he finally worked out of the inning without worse damage. But clearly after that labored 8th inning, there was no way Schiraldi should be able to go 2 more innings, but McNamara had painted himself into a corner.
4) In the top of the 10th, after Henderson homered to give Boston a 4-3 lead, the pitcher’s spot was up, and after Schiraldi had labored badly in the 8th and 9th, most expected the ignored Don Baylor to finally hit. He didn’t. Instead McNamara let Schiraldi hit (he struck out), and then Boggs doubled and Barrett drove him in for a 5-3 lead. Nice insurance run, yes, but had Baylor hit, the inning might have been even bigger.
5) McNamara failed to see how badly Schiraldi was struggling. The first two outs of the bottom of the 10th inning, Backman and Hernandez, both got pretty good wood on the ball. Schiraldi was clearly worn out, up in the strike zone, and was just putting it there to be hit. Then both Carter and Mitchell had hard-hit singles, and yet McNamara sits there. Stanley was ready in the bull pen. It was way too late of a decision to finally go to Stanley after Knight singled to bring home Carter.
6) The Dave Stapleton fiasco. In every post-season Red Sox win, Dave Stapleton was brought in as a defensive replacement for the hobbled Bill Buckner. Inexplicably, in the bottom of the 10th, with a two-run lead, Buckner was still out there. McNamara later claimed that Buckner was the best fielding first-baseman on the team, and that Stapleton had the nickname ‘Shaky’ due to his alleged defensive weakness. When asked directly about this, teammate Bruce Hurst said he never ONCE heard Stapleton called ‘Shaky.’ Clearly, McNamara wanted Buckner on the field at the moment of victory, a decision that would blow up in his face.
Bob Stanley and Rich Gedman 23%
There was absolutely no excuse for Gedman and Stanley to get crossed up on which pitch would be thrown to Mookie Wilson. This was a HUGE mistake, as Gedman was leaning away from the batter while Stanley threw inside. Instead of trying to get in front of it, Gedman just jabbed at it and missed. And Stanley didn’t just miss the plate, his pitch was so wild it nearly hit Mookie Wilson–whose acrobatics to avoid the pitch should be credited with scoring Mitchell because most batters would have been plunked resulting in bases loaded, and still a 1 run lead. But Stanley and Gedman shoulder a HUGE amount of blame for allowing the game to be needlessly tied.
Calvin Schiraldi 15%
Schiraldi was asked to pitch by his manager more than he could actually do, but he does shoulder the blame for allowing the game to be tied up in the bottom of the 8th, and then failing again in the bottom of the 10th, and then failing again in Game 7.
Oil Can Boyd 3%
When game seven was delayed 1 day due to rain, McNamara pulled the start from Boyd, allowing Hurst to pitch on short rest. Boyd was crushed and got himself drunk, rendering himself unable to pitch at all in Game 7.
Bill Buckner 2%
Okay, the ball did go through his legs allowing the winning run to score in Game 6, but people forget that the TYING run had already scored on Stanley’s wild pitch. Even if Buckner fields the ball, analysts of the play say there was a 50/50 chance Mookie beats Buckner to the bag, and it didn’t appear Stanley would get there in time either. But even if Buckner gets Mookie out, the game goes on to the 11th inning with the Mets retaining more bull pen options that the Red Sox in a game that thereafter would clearly favor the Mets.
Wade Boggs 1%
There is an often overlooked play in the famous bottom of the 10 in game six, when Ray Knight was at the plate. The Red Sox still led 5-3. A few swings before Knight stroked a single to score Carter, he hit a slow dribbler up along third. It was in fair play, and Boggs could have fairly easily picked up the ball and thrown out the slow-running Knight to win the World Series. Instead of creating for himself a career moment, he took the too conservative approach and allowed the ball to roll foul. Even if he fielded it, threw to first, and didn’t beat Knight, it would have been only bases loaded, with two outs and a two-run lead–a much better position they would have been in than Knight singling to score Carter.
One more I forgot with McNamara. In game 7 Roger Clemens was ready to come in for relief and give Boston a few quality innings. The call never came.
I agree, except I think Wades Bogg should be 2% responsible.
I thought about giving Boggs 2%. Its admittedly a tough call. When you re-watch the play, its somewhat astounding that he didn’t pick it up and throw him out. He should have known Knight wasn’t that fast.

– Darn, Jason fraud. I knew you were looking forward to this.
Looks like the new borough of Manhattan Super-Soros DA, sworn in today, is the worst one EVER.
God help the poor New Yorkers. For those who haven’t gotten out yet… it’s time. Memo to frogs: the water is getting hotter.
Reading about life in our big blue cities today reminds me of what I’ve read about life in Shanghai between the wars– the volcano’s edge.

NYC was covered in blood because of COVID? Damn. The NYC Variant is a beast.
Virginia Governor Youngkin being blamed for the I-95 disaster with motorists stranded over 24 hours. One person on Twitter remarked how terrible a start this is for the new Governor.
Pretty rough criticism of Youngkin seeing he isn’t even sworn in until the 15th.
DW – Democrats believe the oceans stopped rising when Obama was elected. It is not a big stretch for them to blame Youngkin for a snow storm before he takes office.
“Darn, Jason fraud. I knew you were looking forward to this.”
Only a couple more weeks to Amoral Scumbag Day.
One year of ignoring Biden’s disastrous presidency while driving by to talk about Trump, Fauci and me.
Fmr Pres. Trump has CANCELLED his January 6th press conference at Mar-a-Lago”
I don’t know why Amoral Scumbag is upset, he can still listen to fellow scumbag Liz Cheney.
A smart move by Trump.
When your enemy is self destructing don’t interfere
I hope this interpretation by Nick Arama is correct.
In reality a carveout of “voting rights” would be even worse than BBB, because it would pretty much ensure one party rule, while BBB would “only” destroy the economy. Presumably you could right the economy in the future, but not if Dems made sure they would never lose elections.
“But Joe Manchin has already popped Schumer’s bubble and done in this goal. He told reporters today that any carveout would be a “heavy lift,” that if you did that “you eat the whole turkey,” meaning you once you go down that road, you’ve killed the filibuster. He refused to go along with anything that wasn’t bipartisan. Translation: No dice, Chuckie.”
Sinema has been very quiet lately, I don’t know if she has been bought off or just letting Manchin do the heavy lifting. She had been pretty clear she was against tampering with the filibuster.
In reality, I always thought she was less likely to be bought off than Manchin, who had a history of caving at the end.
It is not a big stretch for them to blame Youngkin for a snow storm before he takes office.”
Someone noted that when people were corrected on who was actually governor, NONE of them posted anything critical of Northam.
#473, good post, DW.
Congresswoman Brenda Lawrence, who represents the black-majority MI-14 (eastern Detroit, black-majority Oakland County suburbs, and Pontiac), has announced her retirement. https://mobile.twitter.com/RepLawrence/status/1478553093684043777?s=20
Clearly, the effects of the Elizabeth Holmes verdict will be much greater than just Bobby Rush’s retirement. Who will be the next to retire? David Scott? Fredrica Wilson? Bennie Thompson? Danny Davis? We will have to wait and see.
Thanks Meldrin. That was the most classic of all fall classics.
Here are two related headlines:

25th House Democrat Announces They Won’t Seek Re-Election
I think we will get 4 retirements because there were 4 guilty counts.
But the 3 hung counts could mean 1.5 retirements.
Unfortunately the 4 acquittals means 4 Dems will reconsider retiring.
Nikki Fried calls DeSantis a “dictator”.
Will go over well with all the people in FL that fled real dictators.
Democrats always like to call Republican leaders ‘dictators’ and then when the Dems finally get into power and actually acts like dictators, then they are called ‘visionaries.’
494. Democrats are hypocrites?! Who knew??
Yep. This is what Obama said about Fidel Castro, who for decades was a brutal communist dictator that killed thousands and jailed all dissidents.
“We know that this moment fills Cubans — in Cuba and in the United States — with powerful emotions, recalling the countless ways in which Fidel Castro altered the course of individual lives, families, and of the Cuban nation. History will record and judge the enormous impact of this singular figure on the people and world around him”
“There’s a lot of reason to be hopeful in 2020.”
I guess he forgot to flip the calendar– not just once, but TWICE!
We’ve seen enuf of Sinema by now to know she keeps schtum. It’s what she does.
Trudeau on Castro:
Trudeau described Castro as a “legendary revolutionary and orator” and praised him for making “significant improvements to the education and health care of his island nation.”
now to know she keeps schtum. It’s what she does.”
I will take your word for it.
I checked the English-Quechua dictionary. Came up empty.
Biden often does not know where he is. Or where to go. Or what he is saying. Now he doesn’t even know what year it is.
Remember when Amoral Scumbag got VERY excited that some quack diagnosed Trump on TV as “mentally incapacitated”, and couldn’t stop posting about it?
Biden? Crickets.
Where are these people?
“A petition signed by 350 psychiatrists and other mental-health professionals claiming that President Donald Trump’s mental health is deteriorating rapidly amid impeachment proceedings is set to be submitted to Congress on Thursday.
“We are convinced that, as the time of possible impeachment approaches, Donald Trump has the real potential to become ever more dangerous, a threat to the safety of our nation,” said Drs. Bandy Lee, a Yale psychiatrist, Jerrold Post, a former CIA profiler, and John Zinner, a psychiatrist at George Washington University.”
Chuckie gooal post alert!
We went from “holding a vote” to “having discussions”
“Asked about what might be changed in the Senate rules re: the filibuster, Schumer only says ‘there are many different proposals out there and our caucus is discussing them.’ But Schumer acknowledges there is no deal among Democrats.”
I formed my opinion of shrinks from watching them for 35 years, when I noticed the perfect correlation between their expert opinions and the party paying them.

https://www.nysun.com/editorials/game-over-manchins-job-approval-soars-to-59-as-he/91863/
DEM senators facing tough reelection contests (NV; AZ) must want to kill Schumer for scheduling difficult votes– in order to punish Manchin & Sinema.
I don’t know if this is what mmw meant by schtum but I will take it…
“Kyrsten Sinema reiterated during yesterday’s virtual Democratic caucus lunch she will not support any effort to get rid of the 60-vote threshold, according to two sources familiar with the call”
Of course, always skeptical about “sources familiar”, just like I was skeptical when Axios reported that Manchin was negotiating “according to people familiar with the matter”, which turned out to be wrong.
Let’s see if Schumer really schedules the vote.
Right now he is trying to pretend the vote is 48-2. It is not. It is 52-48 at best.
It destroys the narrative that “one or two people” are destroying civilization as we know it.
13 people were killed in a fire today in Philadelphia. Jason to add “fire-ravaged” to Philadelphia Hate List in 3…2…1…
I know Yiddish slang too. It was a thing here not long ago.
More BS…looks like KY won’t split the Louisville congressional district how nice of them.
I am sure fires only happen in Bad Philadelphia.
All murders, robberies, carjackings, burglaries, rapes, assaults, drug related deaths and crimes and political corruption happen in Bad Philadelphia.
Good Philadelphia it is a beautiful peaceful, paradise completely isolated, separate, and apart from Bad Philadelphia, which for all practical purposes should be considered to be thousands of miles away. Good Philadelphia is a cultural mecca where elitist suburbanites from places like Radnor can go to while professing to not knowing anything about Bad Philadelphia.
When it comes to Bad Philadelphia, the elitists “know nothing, see nothing, hear nothing”.
State Police and transportation officials took to the air to monitor progress because highway traffic cameras went dark amid power outages, Northam said. While expressing sympathy for stranded motorists, Northam said more should have heeded warnings to stay off the roads.”
Did he tell Tim Kaine he should have stayed off the roads?
Looks like Fairmount is in Good Philadelphia. These things like fires are not supposed to happen there…there should be an investigation since this is only normal in Bad Philadelphia.
“Home to Philly’s truly world-class museums, Fairmount is synonymous with fine art — but art is far from the only draw for this northern neighbor to Center City.
Often referred to as the “Art Museum Area” because of its walking-distance access to Philadelphia Museum of Art, Franklin Institute, Rodin Museum and Barnes Foundation, Fairmount possesses a distinct personality that thrives independent of those many hallowed halls.”
516 – more were on the roads because their flights home were canceled due to Covid madness, and so they had to rent cars and drive home.
Schtum was actually new to me, and I consider myself well versed in Yiddish slang for an Incan.
Well, time to schlep some llama feed over to the barn.
I don’t actually blame Northam for the debacle, storms happen, but the hypocrisy of blaming Youngkin first and then giving Northam a pass second is astounding.
If Philly-hater Jason had ever been to Philadelphia, he would know that Fairmount is a mixed area. There are expensive high-rise condo building, middle class homes and low-income sections. The fire was in Section 8 housing. It is subsidized for low-income people.
It does have nice bars and restaurants. It also has a thriving girls softball league.

On a good note, the U.S. is about to become the world’s top LNG gas exporter.
“The U.S. Energy Information Administration recently forecast that the new Venture Global and Cheniere facilities will increase the country’s peak LNG production capacity from 11.6 Bcf/d as of November 2021 to 13.9 Bcf/d by the end of 2022 across the seven export facilities. The agency forecast that baseload U.S. LNG liquefaction capacity will increase from 9.5 Bcf/d to 11.4 Bcf/d over the same time frame.
With all of these terminals at full capacity, the U.S. would become the biggest global LNG producer, ahead of Australia and Qatar, which export 11.4 Bcf/d and 10.3 Bcf/d, respectively, according to the EIA.”

I thought he was the best choice in the Republican primary in 2016. Thankfully, more people chose Trump, and I got to vote for Trump 2x.
I’ll do so again if Trump wins the 2024 primary, but if he doesn’t run I will support another candidate, but most likely not Cruz. Unforced error today, and that misjudgment will cost him my vote.

FOX News coverage; The Good and Bad of the Riots:
Bad- Brett Biare is salivating over Biden’s speech
Good- Chris Wallace is gone. If around, Wallace would call it the best speech since the Gettysberg Address
Darkest day in American history. In order to rectify it we must do away with voter ID. Promote ballot harvesting. Accept mall in ballots with no verification.
Does that pretty much sum it all up?
557. Don’t confuse them with the facts. Their basing their recommendations on SCIENCE. And the science is clear and irrefutable, even though the recommendations constantly change.
Remember last year when Fauci and others told us the vaccine would prevent infection? Their babbling like fools, knowing the liberal media will parrot whatever they say is absolute truth.
Am sure concerned troll will do a fly-by today to dutifully denounced Trump. Off course he will flee before ever responding to questions about his opinion of Biden. This has become comical.

Hey, Cow
In addition to sussing out the fact that old white conservatives are irresistibly drawn to her, due to her irresistible sexual aura, Sandy also said (not long back):
“Republicans– they’re old white men who sit around and talk about the good old days, when Hershey bars were a nickel.”
I know that’s what my friends and I always discuss, whenever we get together– because we’re dumb & a little senile, & haven’t read widely like AOC has– so that’s all we CAN talk about! Candy bars! Boy, those Hershey bars were something back then, weren’t they?
Can you remember when you could get 5 of them for a quarter, Cow?
Gee our old Lasalle ran great, too. Those were the days!

I don’t agree about selling. I think cash is trash. I prefer rotating into high dividend value stocks, especially energy, & especially natural gas.
Here is who Cow blames for CAUSING the unfortunate riot/assault on the Capitol on 1/6/2021:
************************************************
1. George Floyd trying to pass counterfeit money, eating drugs, refusing to get into police car.
2. The policeman who had a knee on the back/neck of George Floyd that was involved in causing Floyd’s death.
3. The tens of thousands of asshats who participated in George Floyd riots and hundreds of millions of dollars of destruction (in dozens of cities) for 7 months.
4. Antifa/BLM/Anarchists/nutjobs who spent months nightly attacking federal buildings and agents defending same on the left coast.
5. The city and state authorities that allowed #3 and #4 above to continue and did not meet those riots with sufficient force to end the violence, deaths, assaults, arsons, destruction of personal and government property.
6. The asshats who set up and funded free bail money for all the anarchists who were were arrested in #3 and #4 above.
7. The U.S. court system that REFUSED to actually hold ANY court case to investigate ANY specific and/or widespread CHARGES of election fraud to prove or dispel the charges that fraud existed in the 2020 election.
[I do not understand how votes could be counted without poll watchers present if State law required the presence of poll watchers from both parties being present during the vote count and tally.]
8. The R party officials in PA and other states who did not attempt–prior to the election–to thwart violation of State laws by State court judges of existing State election laws as a result of Covid.
9. The fricking Chinese for unleashing Covid on the U.S. that messed up normal election procedures.
10. The media for not fairly covering LOTS of things and not presenting both sides concerning charges of election fraud, irregularities, violation of State laws, etc.
11. People who voted for Biden merely because they think Trump is an a$$hole.
12. Trump for being an a$$hole who could not control his fingers or mouth and caused many voters to want to vote against him and instead vote for a senile simpleton who will go down in history as a very failed president.
13. The authorities who failed to take proper steps to prevent a breach of the U.S. Capitol building.
As to what happened on 1/6 a year ago, Cow–months earlier–correctly predicted that sh!t would hit the fan due to:
A. MONTHS of frustration of a large segment of Americans who were incensed by the government(s) allowing lawlessness to seize the cities and take over the streets. Eventually the non-left wing nut jobs would conclude that they ALSO MUST take their grievances to the street and use violent methods to achieve their goals.
B. failure of the courts of refusing to hear cases concerning election fraud/irregularities and WHICH WOULD EITHER PROVE OR DISPEL the 2020 election fraud/irregularities charges.
Since even a COW could see this coming, it lends credence to those who think that the Left allowed and underhandedly encouraged those on the Right to do what they did on 1/6 so the boom could be lowered on the Right.
“A 6.1 earthquake just struck 50 miles from the capital of Nicaragua.”
Trump’s fault.
Either that or GlowBull warming.
Or maybe Glen Youngkin’s fault.
“NYC was Ted Cruz’s biggest cheerleader here for years.
But with one comment, he becomes a RINO traitor.”
-No. He just became a guy I will not vote for in the Republican primary for President in 2024.
MNW. I would in the past as well. But when you’re 75 and quite comfortable,your time horizon shrinks.

But lets turn the whole world into a communist dictatorship just as a precaution!!
Here is what the CBI
(Cow Bureau of Investigations) has discovered concerning the questions posed earlier by me and recopied below:
###################################
Questions about 1/6/2021
1. How many people were gathered for the rally in D.C.?
ANSWER:
The permit was for 20,000 (or other souces say 30,000). But there were 3 permits for 3 separate rallies on 1/6/21 totaling 75,000 expected attendees.
The actual crowd on that day was 120,000 people.
Despite the huge size of the crowd, a D.C. city official (can’t remember his title) on that day before it all hit the fan viewed the crowd and said he thought it was at the low end of 20,000–maybe LESS!
___________________________________________
2. How many people broke windows, etc. and forced enter into the capitol?
ANSWER: earlier it was said by authorities (FBI) that about 800 people entered the Capitol. Weeks/Months later this was changed to 1,200 people.
They have arrested over 800 so far.
_____________________________________________
3. When did Trump address the crowd?
ANSWER: Trump addressed the crowd at 12 noon.
The assault on the Capitol took place shortly before 1 p.m. (and Trump was still addressing the crowd still gathered at the White House.
_______________________________________________
4. When did the breach of the Capitol happen–before, during or after Trump addressed crowd?
ANSWER: Before 1 p.m. while Trump was still speaking the assault began. Breach of the Capitol building happened about 2 p.m.
__________________________________________
5. How many capitol police were at the capitol to deny illegal entry? Was this security force in any way beefed up for that specific and important day?
ANSWER: Outside on one side of the capitol building were about 24 officers. Outside on the grounds on the side where the Trump rally had been happening was about 18 officers. Inside the Capitol were maybe 150-200(?) officers.
Top Capitol police chief WELL BEFORE Jan 6 requested more police to be on duty for 1/6. They could have had about 300 more Capitol Police deployed that day. Before 1/6/21 other federal agencies offered the use of their officers. The 300 extra CP were not called in beforehand. The offer from the other federal agencies was rejected.
____________________________________________
6. When did a call go out to bring police reinforcements? How long did it take for reinforcements to get to the capitol bldg?
ANSWER: Called for reinforcement when they lost the exterior lines outside the bldg. well before 2 p.m. (Maybe 1:15-1:30?)
Interestingly, at4 about 3 p.m. is when Ashly Babbitt was shot and killed. 3 or 4 CP were outside the locked/barricaded interior door (to the House/Senate?). These CP had not pulled their sidearms, had no helmets or shields and were holding back the crowd from forcing through. Though the crowd did reach past them to break the glass in the doors/windows. At about 3 p.m. about 6 heavily armed CP with AR-15s in riot gear came up the steps to relieve those 3 or 4 practically unarmed CP. The unarmed CP stepped away and before the heavily equipped CP squad could get to that door and in those intervening seconds is when the crowd broke out the windows and Ashley Babbitt tried to go through and was shot and killed.
National Guard/Federal troops–while ready to be there and just 20 minutes away–were not activated and put into play until like 4 p.m. or later. By 6 p.m. riotors were cleared from the building and capitol grounds. The Pentagon brass would not give permission when first requeted. Some say it was due to bad optics when they deployed them in June 2020 over BLM/Pink Floyd protest and they took heat over that and were reluctant to do so again.
___________________________________________
7. How many people who entered the capitol were the ones who broke windows/doors to gain entry, physically assault police, destroy property, stole property?
ANSWER: Authorities now say @ 1200 people entered Capitol…unknown how many did the things listed above.
_____________________________________________
8. How many people actually entered the capitol building? What % of this group were part of a violent mob, just bystanders who were there inside but did not commit any acts of violence, just entered and walked around and took pictures?
ANSWER: see answer above
9. What % of the people gathered for the rally entered into the capitol bldg.?
ANSWER: So if 120,000 in crowd and 1,200 entered building…1%
___________________________________________
10. How many FBI assets (people) were actually in the crowd? In the smaller crowd who forced entry? Entered the capitol? We all know the FBI musta had some people actually in the crowd.
ANSWER: unknown. But one 40-minute video telling what happened showed that Epps guy (FBI paid guy) TWICE inciting the crowd to get into the bldg.
11. Did authorities arrest the person(s) who were videoed taking down the perimeter fences?
Answer: unknown.
____________________________________________
12. Who was it that removed metal barricades? Some videos I saw, it looked like the police were removing the barricades.
ANSWER: unknown. Most of what I saw was protestors pushing down barriers while police were trying desperately to prevent that from happening. [Long ago, I DID see a video where it APPEARED it was police officers who were removing the barriers and waving the crowd forward.]
_______________________________________________
13. Were there instances where police actually opened doors and let people in the capitol?
ANSWER: At one of the 8 breaches, the CP stood there and made no effort to try to stop the breach and keep people out.
____________________________________________
14. Of the thousands of hours of video tapes from various sources, can the public still see all those?
ANSWER: I do not know.
I remember seeing one video clip where someone (tall dude) outside the capitol doors rushed in and looked like was beating on one of the people trying to break windows in the door.
[have never seen this video since about a week after 1//6/21]
_____________________________________________
15. Why didn’t security forces inside capitol use firehoses on the people trying to enter capitol through broken windows? or use stun grenades? Rubber bullets?
ANSWER: The Cap. Pol. outside the building had no riot gear, shields, helmets, crowd control weapons. By the time the thin line of CP (and ensuing reinforcements) lost the line on the grounds leading TO the capitol, the commander ordered the tactical squads in. It took them a while to get there. They were armed with stun grenades and tear gas and other gear and used what they had on the crowd. This would have been well before 2 p.m. when the capitol building itself was actually breached and people began entering the capitol bldg.
Apparently, rubber bullets were used on BLM protestors back in June 2020 at or near the capitol.

Royalties? We’re A-holes. We don’t pay royalties.
I don’t see the Democrats strategy of focusing on the “insurrection” from a year ago as being a very effective strategy. Americans now in 2022 are focused on economic issues and the coronavirus epidemic — and the Biden presidency has failed miserably on both issues. The Democrats present shrillness about last year’s events comes across as a smoke screen to hide the Biden administration’s failures over the last year.
Putin game playing may result in Finland (and maybe Sweden) joining NATO. Finland has already decided to buy U.S. F-35 jet fighters.
“Finland says it reserves right to join NATO despite opposition from Russia
Finland’s leaders say they will decide whether to join NATO despite warnings ?from Russia against joining the Western alliance, as the military standoff on Ukraine’s border has heightened tensions between Moscow, the US and Washington’s European allies. ?
“Finland’s room to maneuver and freedom of choice also include the possibility of military alignment and applying for NATO membership, should we ourselves so decide,” President Sauli Niinistö said in a New Year’s address over the weekend.
Niinistö also urged the European Union to become actively involved in curbing Russian aggression, saying: “In this situation, Europe cannot just listen in.”

“A new national telephone and o FCnline survey by Rasmussen Reports finds that only 28% of Likely U.S. voters believe it is likely Biden will be reelected if he seeks another term in 2024. Thirty-eight percent (38%) think Biden would lose to a Republican candidate in 2024, while 21% say it’s more likely Biden will resign before completing his full term in office. Another 15% are not sure.”

Cruz just made Tina’s RINO list?
I think she should start a new list of who is NOT a RINO, much more manageable.
Not only will it be very short, it will get shorter each day.
I don’t think Cruz should have referred to anyone at the Jan 6 protest as “terrorist”, even in the context of those that attacked police officers.
I am not a fan of Ted Cruz as I have often considered him a grandstander.
However, to pretend he is anything less than a committed conservative is really stupid.
If Ted Cruz is not conservative enough for the 100% litmus testing morons, conservatives will be a tiny minority consigned to the fringes of power for eternity.
Scott Rasmussen makes a good point:
“I believe the Democrats have made a terrible miscalculation with Hispanic voters. The Census Bureau defines a Hispanic person as anybody with any Hispanic heritage. If your parents were both born in America, but their parents came from a Hispanic country, you’re counted that way? Turns out, about half of Hispanic voters think of themselves as White, especially in West Texas, South Texas. It depends on if you live in a community that is heavily Hispanic and has strong ties to new immigrants coming in.
“Democrats want to present this notion of persons of color, that they are all the same. It is not a coalition that exists in the real world. And when you appeal to a Hispanic voter who thinks they’re White, trying to make their life in America, and you say ‘fighting for civil rights,’ it doesn’t connect.”
The great irony is that Trump is not on Tina’s RINO list. He spent decades funding hard-core leftists. He only ran as a Republican so he did not have to face Hillary in a Dem primary.
I did not like Cruz’s statement but it did not make him a RINO.
Ironically despite her not being a Republican, Tina considers herself the gatekeeper for who RINOs are and are not.
Cruz has no shot in 24.
I read his whole statement and some of his questions. Big picture was different.
He was sucking up to the witness at the start; foolish, but doesn’t make him a Rino.
But stay in the Senate Ted.

LOL
Goal post move alert!
Is that the new standard? When it counted?
Seems to me “when it counted” Ted Cruz was ALWAYS more conservative than Trump.
Bitter is right, if Cruz is a RINO, Trump is a MEGA RINO.
The fact is, 90% of the RINOS the 100% litmus test morons attack here are more conservative than Trump.
Wes – Tina is a RINO Hunter despite not being a Republican. Jason is the Deplorable Whisperer without being a deplorable.
Trump was a good President. Trump is not the litmus test of conservatism. Both can be true.
Most of the protestors on January 6, 2021 were peaceful. Some got out of hand. Some broke the law. None were terrorists (unless there really was a bomb plot).
RIP Sidney Portier at 94
So in order to encourage the use of electric vehicles in California, they are going to have mobile charging station vehicles that generate their electrical charge from onboard natural gas tanks:
“But the mobile charging station developed by L-Charge, which runs on relatively low-emission liquefied natural gas (LNG) or hydrogen, also offers a solution that doesn’t involve additional strain on the grid. This is an important innovation in a world in which demands on the grid are expected to grow rapidly over the next decade.”
Meanwhile California is building more natural gas power plants to avoid blackouts in the summer.
So much for the green energy revolution. Maybe Al Gore can fly the Swedish scold to California on his private jet to lecture Newsom.
So not only don’t the vaccines prevent infection, it now appears the COVID tests do not detect early infections. What a complete joke of a public health establishment. Let’s see how Fauci spins this one.
NYT headline:
“Emerging Data Raise Questions About Antigen Tests and Nasal Swabs
A new study adds to evidence that common rapid tests may fail to detect some Omicron cases in the first days of infection.”
Why not just run cars on LNG if possible? But I do not know if it is possible or safe. Maybe SDC knows.
“Visit This Quirky SoCal Mountain Town That Elected a Golden Retriever as Mayor
From hikes and rock climbing to local brews, natural wines, and coffee flights”
Given the state of California politics, I would vote for the
golden retriever for governor. Beats the current mutt.
619. I often drive a natural gas truck. However, it runs on CNG, condensed natural gas. LNG is expensive because it requires the natural gas be keep at a low temperature to liquify it. It would also be an energy use hog in a small vehicle.
The mobile recharge vehicles would likely be good sized trucks with large LNG tanks that could charge a large number of vehicles each day. Charging an electric vehicle is not cheap, unless you have a home charger. A recent study found it was more expensive than the cost of gasoline for a gas engine vehicle.
Walt is offended by the term “fossil fuel.” He says those fossils used to be his friends.
Here is a comparison of the costs of charging an electric vehicle vehicle vs. a gasoline vehicle. It does not include the costs of driving around to find an open electric charger, or the hours necessary for an electric car to be charged:
“A mid-priced internal combustion car that gets 33 miles per gallon would cost $8.58 in overall costs to drive 100 miles at $2.81 a gallon, the study found. But a mid-priced EV, such as Chevrolet Bolt, Nissan Leaf or a Tesla Model 3, would cost $12.95 to drive 100 miles in terms of costs that include recharging the vehicle using mostly a commercial charger.”
“On a yearly basis, assuming the mid-priced cars traveled 12,000 miles, it would cost $1,030 to drive an internal combustion car and $1,554 to drive an EV.”
Walt probably knows who is buried in Grant’s tomb.
Has anyone seen Clint Eastwood’s new movie?
At 91, he refuses the advances of a hot Mexican woman about 60 years younger, but does nail a hot Mexican woman only about 40 years younger.
Walt probably knows who is buried in Grant’s tomb.
Walt knew the marble in Grant’s tomb when it was limestone.
When it counted was Jan20,2017 to January 20,2021.
Yes. That was and is the only litmus test. Full stop
Biden administration lawyer is apparently watching the results from some other planet:
Biden administration says vaccine mandate is ‘single most effective’ tool OSHA has.
Justice Thomas asks the Biden administration’s lawyer whether there are other tools and methods OSHA could have used instead, rather than the vaccine mandate.
She says that the requirement is the “single most effective way of targeting” what OSHA is seeking to combat, including serious illness, transmission etc.
“Vaccination provides protection on all of those fronts,” she says.
Protection? From what?
Sotomayor claims vaccine requirement is not a mandate, says it is ‘something totally different’
yeah, it all depends on what the meaning of ‘is’ is.
Jason you’re being argumentative again. No one cares about unilateral definitions of RINO on this site.
We should care about them in Congress,and Governors offices ” where it counts”.
We can be sure in most cases who those are by their actions
No one cares about unilateral definitions of RINO on this site.”
Since I never call anybody RINOS, you obviously are confused.
Talk to the 100% litmus test morons here that are RINO hunters.
As far as being “argumentative”, yeah, I like calling idiots out.
GFY.
I hope SCOTUS denies something totally different.
Maybe Neville Allen can help Tina turn off the lights when the last true conservative becomes a RINO.
It might take two, one to turn the lights off and one to check they are really off.
We can be sure in most cases who those are by their actions”
Of course.
The rule is that true conservatives are only one vote or one comment or one nanosecond away from becoming RINOs.
Ted Cruz, a fire breathing principled conservative for decades and right wing hero for single handedly shutting down the government, who in the last year has been lauded for mercilessly skewering Biden, Fauci, Kamala and all of Biden’s left wing nominees in the Senate, became an INSTA-RINO for calling people that attacked police officers terrorists, as defined by people who regularly call BLM and Antifa thugs who attack police officers terrorists.
Reading the questions SCOTUS judges put to the attorneys is always tricky business, but if I had to guess its looking like a 5-4 decision against the Biden Admin using OSHA to force employees to get the shots.
Red Ruze is a lawyah and a politician. He knows what he said. He is an idiot.
The same word other people here called him in 2018, when they wanted the Skateboarder to win.
We will see.
I worry about Beotchy, Bushie, and Souter.
They like “big gubment”conservatism and mandates.
And for once, like to see one of the four commies vote with the conservatives on the court.
Why not just run cars on LNG if possible?”
Many countries have cars that only run on LNG, there are millions of LNG powered cars in Latin America. Refueling can be done at easily accessible pumps at regular gas stations and is much more convenient than recharging electrically.
Also, conventional cars can be adapted to run on LNG, so that is another advantage, all it takes is a “kit”, so that they can run on both gas and LNG.
We don’t have to worry about Alito, Thomas, or Gorsuch.
But look at Sotohatewhiteymor. This would get you banned if

Thomas – 100% Against mandate
Alito – 100% Against mandate
Gorsuch – 100% Against mandate
Kav – 90% chance against mandate
Barrett – 60% chance against mandate
Roberts – checking to see if his blackmailers are on the phone.
Breyer – 90% chance for mandate
Kagan – 100% for mandate
Soto – 100% for mandate
Everybody knows this already. However, some were invited in and others apparently were entrapped by the Fib or other Federal agencies. With that said, we have unequal treatment with justice here:
# of BlMers charged with assaulting and injuring 50 secret service agents when they tried storming the White House?
Number of protesters charged with damaging the capitol in 2017 during Trumps ignaguration?
# of hairy women that. Piglosi let into the capitol to disrupt the Kavanaugh hearing?

The nearest villages to the earthquake epicenter in China are very small and at least 10 miles away.
It appear Trump and Youngkin are off the hook.
Seems like Piglosi and MA Governor blamed trump for the death of a Capitol Hill policemen in April of 2021.
The cop tragically killed by a member of the Black Panthers.
653 BL
Uhh… no.
Speaking of entrapment, one should look at the MI Governor Whitler kidnapping case, which is likely to get tossed due to corrupt Fib,
655 Ted Cruz said none of those things.
Bitter it is ok to attack Sotomayor for making up stuff at the hearing while making up stuff that Ted Cruz never said.
I said during the BLM and Antifa riots that people who broke the law should be prosecuted. I said on 1/6/2020 that people broke the law should be prosecuted. I never equated BLM and Antifa to the 1/6/2020 protesters.
Tina either thinks that none of the protesters went too far on 1/6/2020 OR the ones who broke the law should not be prosecuted. She should just say it.
I never saw any def assert an entrapment defense in either state or federal court.
I’d be curious to know what the standard is for a def to get discovery (Were undercover police present? If so, what did they do & say?) for a prospective entrapment defense.
I never explored the deep weeds on the J6 defs. Didn’t they all plead guilty?
More than other defenses, entrapment is unusually fact-driven. I’m trying to envision “entrapment” & “trespassing/property damage,” without much success.
There’s also a thing about whether entrapment is judged by an objective or subjective test, & I have no idea which would apply to the J6 defs. Apparently their own attys didn’t think that avenue was very promising.
However, some were invited in and others apparently were entrapped by the Fib or other Federal agencies.”
Huh, no.
At some door the cops did not try to prevent people from coming in, but “entrapped” sounds like BS. Everyone who invaded the Capitol was there voluntarily and knew they were trespassing. They were not terrorists and they were not insurrectionists but they were not “entrapped”.
1/6/20?
What are you even talking about?
I only said yes, if they assaulted a police officer.
Not charged with parading.
However, the violent BlMers that injured 50 Secret Service agents, who tried to,storm the WH in May of 2020 went uncharged.
As did the hairy women during the Kavanaugh hearing.
As did the rioters during trumps inauguration.
So, we evidently have 2 tiers of justifel
If you are ok with the two tiers of justice, that is really sad, but expected of Bl.
One standard for BlMers and another standard for Maga grandparents,
Sorry. Should have been 1/6/2021. But you knew that.
Ruze got caught. He knew what he said and was called on it.
He is done for 2024.
If he got 10 percent in 2016, he will get 2 percent in 2024.
He should maybe look at how DeSantis responded in Florida to the J6 hoax.

I said the lawbreakers in all of the groups I listed should have been prosecuted. That is a single tier of justice. But Tina reminds me of the train in Thomas the Tank Engine who always complains and tries to create disputes where there are none. Put Upon Percy.
People who believe in Deep State probably believe QAnon.

Too late for that Bl.

Red Ruze is a lawyah and a politician. He knows what he said. He is an idiot.
The same word other people here called him in 2018, when they wanted the Skateboarder to win.
Who specifically on here wanted Cruz to win, Tina? I recall statements by several posters on here, I included, saying because Cruz in public comes across as a smug, unlikable jackass, Beto would make the election closer than it should have been. I recall no statement from a right-leaning poster saying Beto should win?
Who said he or she wanted Beto to win? Give us the names.
Find a post where I said I supported keeping the J6 protesters who broke the law in prison while awaiting trial for a year. I’ll wait. Hint – you won’t find any.
So, be honest. Did any protestor deserve to be charged with anything on 1/6/2021?

This is just absolutely astonishing. “100,000 children in serious condition,” per Sotomayor. Where do these people obtain their misinformation? The current national pediatric COVID census per HHS is 3,342. Many/most incidental.
Bl, I answered that on multiple occasions, including today,
This is the answer I expect Tina to give me:
I’m not going to do research for you.
It’s her rote response when I ask her to source one of her made-up statements.
BL-I believe that there is a “Deep State” in an unaccountable bureaucracy and their elected enablers in the Federal Government. I also believe that there are several layers of Justice at the federal level abetted by a politicized federal LEO and surveillance apparatus.
Q-anon? I would wager you know more about it than I would without looking it up. If you want to call me a conspiracy theorist then have at it.
I would think assaulting secret service agents would warrant charges.
But with the DC courts, they probably would skate anyway, if placed on trial.
Not the same for Maga grandpa.
You may want to check the statements of the paper plane crasher and the Clinton Groupie, Wes.
One allegedly had gop vanity plates.
Tina – Found it. So only a protester who injured a police officer at the Capitol should be prosecuted. Nobody else for anything. Got it.
Dw, the osha mandate will need to be decided asap.
He extended it to February.
However, if the court agrees with it, shots need to be administered like in days to be fully vaccinated.
I don’t recall seeing Robbie or Corey say he wanted Beto to win, Tina. Please kindly provide an actual quote from at least one making a statement to that effect.
Bl,,sorry, forgot those that vandalized property,
This includes the BlMers that broke the capitol windows.
With that said, I would never have been anywhere near the capitol on that day.
CDM – You are a conspiracy theorist. I think the idea of an organized nefarious cabal of Deep State actors is BS.
Enjoy your weekend.
You can research it yourself. I don’t know how to check previous posts, nor have the time to do so.
I do seem to recall one or more mentioning it.
I also never called Ruze a Rino, as alleged.
I actually like Ruze. But his statement was awful.
Never play the lefts game.
The entire congressional GOP delegation, except for MTG, has been chickenbleep about the J6 defs, as far as I know– not just Cruz.
I think there was one other, in addition to MTG, who tried to visit the J6 defs & inspect their conditions of confinement.
Prior to this, I had him on the list of Republican candidates, I wa s open too for 2024, as I have not decided on who I will support.
Now, he is taken off the list and I won’t support him financially for senate re election either (if he goes that route).

It’s hard to convey the disrespect showed by Justices Sotomayor and Breyer today.
100 million Americans are affected by the Biden COVID mandates.
And these Justices showed up unprepared, inventing COVID numbers to support whatever legal conclusion they’ve already reached.
I don’t think I used the term organized nefarious cabal. Those are your words.
Keep believing in the institutions. They are more important to you than the ideas under which the Country was founded. You need them as they provide stability in your life. You would have been a Tory in 1776 as the Crown was the institution of the day.
I think the Venn diagram for “most hateful liberal” & “largest media platform” includes Joy Reid, who has a nightly prime time show on MSNBC– which I’ve never seen, of course. But her stupid & offensive comments are always widely reported elsewhere the next day.
Some interesting reports today, from apparently credible media watchers, that Reid’s going to get axed by MSNBC/Comcast for being “unmanageable,” and “not truthful” about some of her prior statements to her employer, i.e., that homophobic tweets attributed to Reid were the result of hacker attacks, & not authentic Reid tweets.
“100,000 children in serious condition,” per Sotomayor
Maybe she meant worldwide, plus several exoplanet populations.

Ron Johnson will seek reelection. I’d expected Johnson to honor his term-limits pledge and retire this year. I guess he feels the WIGOP hasn’t a strong enough bench to ensure a victory upon his retirement. Dems will probably try to use his reneging on his pledge against him, but rarely has breaking self-imposed term limits actually hurt a pol of either party.
Good, I don’t see anybody even remotely as competitive as Johnson.

Wes that is great news. Johnson for Wisconsin indeed!
He ran in 2016 when the polls had given him up for dead because Hillary was going to have major coattails an Johnson had to run against former senator Feingold.
The wind this time should be at Johnson’s back. Probably wins 52/47 or better.
Wes and Jason, I like Ron Johnson.
I believe in the Deep State. And the Tooth Fairy.
Actually, the Tooth Fairy is probably more credible, I think I got some money out of her.
Wes and Jason, I like Ron Johnson.”
Warning to Ron Johnson, you are one comment, one vote or one nanosecond from being a RINO, so don’t rest on your laurels.
That’s what I’m thinking, DW. Dems have no candidates of the same caliber as Bill Proxmire or Herb Kohl to challenge him, so with Biden’s popularity having fallen precipitously over the past year, I think Johnson wins by about the same margin he unseated Feingold by.
which grifting Deadenders are you supporting this year to try to help Schumer remain Senate Majority Leader?”
We know he would like to support an idiot like Mo Brooks, but Mo Brooks can win, so that IS a problem….
BL – There is no sense arguing or even debating with you. Like I said if the the institutions provide comfort to you and allow you to never question them, that’s fine.
I did notice that you pulled the old slavery(racism) card as per the usual virtue signally suburban progressive. Sorry, you lose.
He’s probably conflicted in OH in trying to determine if Mandel or Vance is worse. Since that’s basically a coin flip, he’s going to have to do research and determine who’s slightly more unelectable and therefore deserves his endorsement.

RE: Winter Classic (so-called):
It distressed me once again that the Bluz gave up a couple of late goals, thus making a blowout way too interesting.
Their GAA is mediocre, which indicates their defense is doubtful. They need a big defensive defenseman, instead of having all offensive defensemen. I can see every game that Petro & Bouwmeester don’t live in STL any more. There is talk of a trade.
Tarasenko is back in the gd COVID protocol again, btw.
Have you given up following the Isles this season?
“He’s probably conflicted”
-Let’s see:
NOT from the state, so can’t vote.
Trust the voters in the primary, and then will support that nominee in the general election.
If they have a different system of electing their rep for the general election that is legal, then once again, will support the one chosen.
Do you have a different approach?
“Since that’s basically a coin flip, he’s going to have to do research and determine who’s slightly more unelectable and therefore deserves his endorsement.”
It’s a lot of pressure, he knows if he picks the wrong one and the Republican wins, he won’t be able to live with himself.
Trust the voters in the primary”
Translation: I will always support the candidate with the least chance of winning the GE in the primary, but then I will support this loser candidate in the GE and pretend I really am not helping Chuck Schumer.
Brilliant!
“Have you given up following the Isles this season?”

I understand your mental processes begin and end with your desire to see Schumer hold the Senate Majority Leader position, Mikey, but despite your otherwise minimal cognitive faculties, even you know residency in a state isn’t a requirement for supporting a candidate.

It snowed again in Virginia last night, and Youngkin didn’t do anything to stop it.
Supposed to be freezing rain on Sunday in central Virginia, and we can again expect Youngkin to just sit by and do nothing. Does he even care about his approval rating at this point?
Like I said if the the institutions provide comfort to you”
I don’t really get this.
We are not supposed to have institutions?
The institutions seem to have worked well for us for centuries. I don’t think there is anything wrong with the institutions, the problem is having people in positions of power willing to corrupt them for partisan purposes.
The remedy for that is not to throw away the institutions, it is to change the educational system and the dynamics that allows such people to dominate them. Of course, that is much more difficult than shallow and simplistic knee jerk “solutions” such as “dismantle the FBI”
All jokes aside, DW, I do hope Youngkin has his people aggressively pointing out Ralph Northam (D-Blackface) is still Governor and as such is responsible for the response to the natural disasters till next Saturday.
Wes, don’t you know that if you don’t support deadenders and the throwing away winnable senate seats you must not believe in the primary system?
SEND A MESSAGE! ELECT MORE LIBERAL DEMS! MAKE CHUCK SCHUMER MAJORITY LEADER!
That will teach them RINOS that only vote 98% for conservative causes.
100% OR BUST!
Northam said he is too traumatized by Youngkin’s win to effectively do anything right now, he is sure everyone understands his deep personal agony.
I’m aware, Jason. I don’t agree with the convoluted logic promoted by Mikey and his ilk, but I at least know what the argument is regardless of how moronic it is.
wes, how could you forget Akin?
You know, the guy mnw said nobody knew was a moron until he actually announced he was a moron?
I would like to see Scott Walker run again for either guv or senator in WI. He was my first choice for POTUS in ’16, & I still think he would’ve been a good nominee.

So mnw is a wealthy former prosecutor and can be a deplorable, but Bitter claims I cannot be a deplorable.

There was a time several years back when it appeared that natural gas vehicles would catch on. It was at a time when natural gas prices were much lower, and there was a financial benefit to using natural gas. Then natural gas prices increased to the point there was no benefit, and there are a limited amount of CNG stations. I know where most of them are located in the western states; if one is down, it can present a problem in rural areas.
My next alternate fuel vehicle will be one that runs on hydrogen. But the refill infrastructure is not yet in place — although it is rapidly growing in California.
Too bad Scott Walker lost re-election by such a narrow margin.
Only 29k votes out of about 2.7 million cast, and where the Libertarian got 20k and the Indy got 19k.
“I don’t agree with the convoluted logic promoted by Mikey and his ilk..”

So, Piglosi got the war monger and the daughter of the war monger together yesterday! Two republicans with the lowest approval rating ever recorded for their respective positions.
Misery loves company, I guess.
Ted Cruz needs to realize he will never be President. It is a shame, actually, as I believe he is devious and calculating enough to be an effective proponent for smaller, less intrusive government, and would make for a good President.
So Ted Cruz is now a red? Damn. He went from conservative to RINO to communist in stunning speed.
MNW: Not really worried about the inheritance tax.
The advance distributions are because my heirs need assistance earlier, rather than later when they’ve established themselves. More bang for the buck.
Waiting for me to “move on” when they won’t need it then seems foolish. Each to his own.
Shows how easy it is to make assumptions.
For instance, graduating from Columbia, being an Attorney, living in Connecticut and then Massachusetts(Cape Cod), statistically would scream lefty Democrat from the North.
But instead I fit perfectly here in very conservative SW Florida. Leaping to conclusions is a mistake.
Yup, Ruze lost the nomination with his stupidity.
He is a liar.
I never saw Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner? before. My daughter wanted to see it because Sidney Poitier died and is the same as my dad. I can see how it must have been very daring/shocking in 1967. Great movie.
Of course, it seemed like 200 years ago to my daughter. My wife and I were born in 1968 so we could not relate to the racial issues that existed when the movie came out. But we could relate to the idea of parents having to accept differences. My mother was not happy I was marrying a Jewish woman. She also thought my wife could do better than me. I am sure she was right. My wife’s sisters also married Christians. When we got married, he said “Why am I the only Jewish man with 3 daughters and no Jewish sons-in-law?” I replied, “Why am I the only man with a Jewish father-in-law who doesn’t own a beach house?” We we’re close after that.

All Voters: 59% – Was 56%
Sheeple – There are 14 announced candidates in the GOP. It may increase name recognition but I don’t think it puts him in the top 7. I am interested in former Rep. Lou Barletta and Trump’s AG in Philadelphia – Bill McSwain.
There is no eBah Denze (paging Attorney Ben Crump) of voter Fraud in the 2020 Erection.

J6 unselect committeerequests Mike Pencc to testify.
Mastriano is not going to win the nomination.
That Manchin article also mentions he has “been talking” to Romney and Larry Kudlow, hopefully more with Kudlow than with Romney.
818. Huh??
A message from Jill Biden:
“Jill is asking everyone to stop calling Joe, Brandon. He thinks that`s his name now.”
eBah Denze”
You called a translator?
Evidence
Another epic search is in the making:
Alec Baldwin says the only way to honor Halyna Hutchins is to find out “the truth”. Baldwin said HE is “demanding” the sheriff investigate to find out “what really happened.”
We must add this to other epic searches like OJ’s search for the real killer of Nicole Simpson and Amoral Scumbag’s search for the real killer of Jeb’s candidacy.
As far as I know, Baldwin took a loaded gun, pointed it at the camerawoman and fired. Let’s see what “really happened”.
Alternative scenarios:
1) It wasn’t Baldwin. It was his double. Baldwin was actually in his trailer watching a Biden speech.
2) The bullet didn’t come from Baldwin’s gun. It was fired by a real cowboy outside shooting at a coyote.
3) It was all a publicity stunt for the movie.
Trouble for Putin in Kazakhstan, requiring some troops.
Might be a break in Ukraine crises.
We’ll see
Putin shouldn’t be in Kazakhstan either.
Hopefully, too late now.
“Ben Ritz, a budget expert at the DC-based Progressive Policy Institute, told The Post that “a $1.8 trillion package along the lines of what Manchin offered last month would be one of the most transformative, progressive pieces of legislation in modern history.”
He added: “The White House should absolutely take it if they can.”
Fortunately, the Dems have their own “all or nothing” deadenders on their side too.
Unfortunately, the government of Kazakhstan has asked for Russian help in putting down a revolt
I don’t think the government of Ukraine has asked for Russian help.
Did anyone see a one-armed man walking away from the spot where Alec Baldwin supposedly didn’t shoot that poor woman?

NEW – Director Walensky says CDC will provide data on “how many of the 836,000 deaths in the U.S. linked to Covid are from Covid or how many are with Covid,” and adds “Omicron has just been with us for a few weeks.”
Seems like the drats are unhinged again. Trying to hide that their 3 Commie sc justices provided Covid untruths.
They are targeting Gorsuch for comparing flu to covid.
Gorsuch only masked about mandating flu vax.
Burstyn said he believes the Buccaneers are using Brown’s history (11 games missed due to suspension over the past two seasons, an arrest for assaulting a moving truck driver and two public allegations of sexual assault) against him.”
Horrors….how cruel of them.
Unfortunately, the government of Kazakhstan has asked for Russian help in putting down a revolt”
You mean a revolt against energy prices and against an authoritarian government just like Putin’s?
The government of Kazakhstan is corrupt and illegitimate and any Russian intervention is designed to prop up a Putin puppet. They are inviting the Russians in to gun down their own people.
Of course Neville Allen also approves of a Russian invasion of Kazakhstan, another step in Putin’s grand plan to recreate the Soviet Union.
No, problem, “peace in our time”.

That may be true,but after 30 years if Kazakhstan has a friendly to Putin, corrupt government, that’s on them.
Would you also suggest sending troops there to?
Like Afghanistan?
Just because a lot of the world sucks,,its not a vital interest of ours.
Our government currently sucks: whose going to liberate us? How about…us?
Complaining about the world sucking helps not a bit; let’s unstuck ourselves first,
Complaining about the world sucking helps not a bit; let’s unstuck ourselves first”
Have you ever heard the old adage that if you can’t say something intelligent you should keep your mouth shut?
Your refusal to admit that the US has any geopolitical interests and your sophomoric and shallow knee jerk reactions that isolationism, surrender and “peace in our time” is the only way the US should consider global issues reveals how stupid you are.
The fact you think we should just let Putin recreate the Soviet Union because “the world sucks” shows you have zero understanding of geopolitical situations. You should really educate yourself more and maybe come back in about 2 years after you have gained at least a rudimentary understanding.
Our government currently sucks: whose going to liberate us? How about…us?”
Zzzzzz……
Contrary to what Neville Allen thinks, the world does not stop and wait for the US to have “better government”.
Much to the opposite, our enemies will take advantage of bad government.
Would you also suggest sending troops there to?
Like Afghanistan?”
I was certainly in favor of invading Afghanistan after 9/11. Weren’t you?
Or should we just have established a committee to study how best to deal with the next 9/11?
,its not a vital interest of ours.”
You can condense all of Neville Allen’s views into that one statement.
And nothing could be more wrong.
I think it is good news that Thune and Johnson are running for re-election.
It probably means they think the GOP will be in the Senate majority after 2022.
I think Gordon is right & makes a lot of sense.
I don’t want the U.S. intervening militarily ANYWHERE without the support of the American people.
Does anyone think that Americans would have any patience for a war in Kazakhstan or Ukraine?
Plus, you REALLY want to see how these idiots in power now do at managing a WAR? The Biden’s puppet masters & Gen. Milley?
I think Gordon is right & makes a lot of sense.”
All isolationists think alike, no surprise there.
Non-sequitur of the month….
“Biden after touring wildfire damage in Colorado that destroyed more than 1,000 homes: “We’re gonna have windmills, you’re gonna see that have 100-yard wingspans, each, each propeller on that on that windmill, 100 yards long. So there’s so much that’s going to be able to be done.”
I believe that showing weakness, surrender and isolationism will get you into a war a lot quicker than showing strong resolve and deterrence.
Does anyone think that Americans would have any patience for a war in Kazakhstan or Ukraine?”
Putin says thank you, got the message.
I can re-create the Soviet Union now while you stand-by and watch.
Later you will have to spend trillions to deal with the consequences, but that is “later”.
