RE: We the People

From The New Yorker;

"So-called" president bone spurs builds another wall....

Well, I was quicker than Borowitz on this topic. But, his is enjoyable;

Today in The New Yorker;

Hydroxyquinone is ineffective against Covid-19. It is of no benefit against Covid-19

Stupid people don't necessarily feel stupid. For them it is 'normal'. Instead, they feel smart, when they get anything right. Regardless, Trump is not only stupid, he is a narcissist. Thus, he has an inflated view of himself. By itself, that would make him somewhat dangerous. Add a very powerful position to that and it results in a very dangerous situation, as we have been witnessing.

RE: We are Marching to Pretoria

Jac - he had many of those symptoms before the usage of hq.
And he also gave us some of those symptoms, such as feeling nauseous after hearing him.

RE: I'm an alcoholic...

Soap & water is your salvation.

RE: We the People

RE: Hot Wheels...

Just to be clear. I had nothing to do with it.

Hydroxyquinone is ineffective against Covid-19. It is of no benefit against Covid-19

Good advice GG. So far, remdesivir is the only drug, that has shown promising results for treatment of Covid-19, decreasing recovery time by several days. The only side effect known so far, is elevated liver enzyme levels, which may indicate liver damage. There are several trials being conducted regarding this anti-viral for treatment of Covid-19.

RE: Update on my job interview yesterday!

P - Here's hoping you find a much better job.

Do they realize it is a call center and that answering the phone and talking are a very large part of it ?

Hydroxyquinone is ineffective against Covid-19. It is of no benefit against Covid-19

The truth is not original. However, some say, that sin can be.

Hydroxyquinone is ineffective against Covid-19. It is of no benefit against Covid-19

Thanks for that projection about yourself.

RE: Democrats Suffering Seizures Over The Unstoppable Trump Economy!!!

Excellent points R.

You are welcome LL. Again, thanks for helping others with their medical needs.
I wish more on here had much more respect for you and others who dedicate their life to helping people.
Unfortunately, decency is rare in some places.

RE: Democrats Suffering Seizures Over The Unstoppable Trump Economy!!!

Who said blacks are stupid ?
Indeed, less than 10% of black voters voted for Trump. That's much smarter than white folks, as a group.

RE: Democrats Suffering Seizures Over The Unstoppable Trump Economy!!!

I don't want an economic collapse. You're hallucinating, or you just want to paint it that way.
But, unlike you, I'm not going to push fiction.
Trump inherited the Obama recovery. Until Trump's horrible handling of the pandemic. the market hadn't really changed much on a percentage basis, since the Obama years. Indeed, the market has done worse than when Obama was in office, if you look at things as a percent increase and all 8 of Obama's year. Indeed, Obama's first 4 years will blows away Trump's first 4 years.

Nonetheless, this table only includes Trump's first 3 1/4 years, so it doesn't include the recent market collapse. But, check out the data for each term for each president;

x-Donald Trump (3 yrs) 2017- 48.7%
Barack Obama 2013-17 44.6%
Barack Obama 2009-13 64.8%
George W. Bush 2005-09 -21.4%
George W. Bush 2001-05 -0.4%
Bill Clinton 1997-01 54.9%
Bill Clinton 1993-97 109.9%
George H.W. Bush 1989-93 45.4%
Ronald Reagan 1985-89 82.4%
Ronald Reagan 1981-85 26.4%
Jimmy Carter 1977-81 0.2%



That's reality, no matter how you spin it.

Regardless. I don't think you want to discuss unemployment figures right now.

Quote of the day - Telling it, like it is.

Most Americans wanted a different leader BEFORE he got elected.
It's not like he won the popular vote. It's just an antiquated system, that was designed to make sure 1 state (of only a few back then) could not routinely decide elections. Now that there are 50 (plus Puerto Rico) it really should be modified more towards the popular vote to protect us from such a danger as what has happened with Trump (and GWB) again.

The rotten apple doesn't fall far from the rotten tree in Eric's case.

Quote of the day - Telling it, like it is.

Truly excellent Closer Look from Seth Myers tonight.
It's ironic, but he repeats one of my comments above;

Quote of the day - Telling it, like it is.

I'm sure they told him. He just has no understanding of the proper meaning of the word.
To him it means, "I can get away with anything."

Quote of the day - Telling it, like it is.

Unfortunately, he is part of that situation.

RE: Batteries...

It can be rather shocking. You sound very charged up about this.

RE: Knee Man's Mugshot...

jac - I knew, that was the nuance you meant, but left out of your previous statement,
which likely confused others. There are criteria in the legal system to judge an insanity plea. There are several on here, that may be considered insane by the majority, but would fail to successfully defend such a plea in court.

RE: Grey hair...

Hearing the phrase, "that'll put hair on your chest" might be received somewhat different by a female.

RE: The Brothers of Truth

That's the problem with all lies. That's why I have objected to them for years on here with a few others.

I also agree with you about D. He made some sort of change for the worst recently.
I was somewhat shocked.

Really, I wasn't being frivolous on this blog. I was being sincere.
Sorry if the somehow misled you.
I just grinned, that I gave the reader a choice, as inconsequential as it was.

RE: Knee Man's Mugshot...

Powerful CNN interview with the chief of police;

RE: Knee Man's Mugshot...

The police chief on Minneapolis, states that the other officers present were "complicit" and "fired".
I am guessing, that they will eventually be charged, after the evidence is thoroughly gone over for each individual
to determine the more accurate level of that "complicit" behavior.

RE: Knee Man's Mugshot...

In the meantime, Adolf Trump is hiding in a "bunker" due to the protesters in DC.

In addition NYC mayor Bill DiBlasio's 25 year old daughter was arrested tonight protesting in NY screaming at police. She did not throw anything.

Both Mayor DiBlasio and NY Governor Cuomo are unified in expressing, that a law shielding police officers from prior allegations needs to be changed to help inspire public trust.

RE: Knee Man's Mugshot...

They certainly should be charged with something. Aiding & abetting seems appropriate.

RE: The Brothers of Truth

My mistake. The sentence of mine above, that reads;

"Of course, you realize, that facts generally have any effect on the beliefs of some. "

Should have included the word don't either between the words facts & generally or
between the words generally & have. Reader's choice.

RE: The Brothers of Truth

OK. Admittedly, I am confused.
Who exactly are "the brothers of truth" in your title ?

RE: The Brothers of Truth

I am in favor of the truth and stand against lies.
However, while growing up (and even later in life), my sister repeatedly has not taken that stance, and she is my only sibling.
Thus, I can't fully relate to the title.
