- Comment on Poll: Nearly 70% of Americans support Texas in border battle, only 27% oppose 10 months ago:
Rasmussen = exclusively old people. Talk about a worthless survey.
Meanwhile, discounting seniors watching Fox News, everyone else is watching the GOP kill a bi-partisan bill meant to actually fix the problem. Why? Because the House of Insurrectionists hasn’t the spine to stand up to cult-leader Trump. Trump sees immigration as the only thing he can flog as an election issue, given the economy, inflation, jobs, gas prices, wage increase, etc. are all doing great. If legislators address immigration, he can’t do his “build the wall” chant.
- Comment on British officer: "You're not allowed to sing church songs outside of church grounds." 10 months ago:
The UK is about 20 years ahead in the decline of religion. My friend Iain has had two churches close their doors in the last 15 years. He’s in his mid-fifties and has mentioned him and his wife are the youngest couple left attending their current church. They have to drive 30 minutes one-way to get to there now. Basically the indoctrination loop broke in the UK a very long time ago, and without teaching kids to believe in invisible nonsense from a very young age… boom, no more religion.
UK isn’t like the USA - you can’t annoy people with this nonsense in public. Why they’d bother writing an article about it, unsure.
- Comment on The Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise (PDF) 11 months ago:
That is, quite literally, a blueprint for destroying our democracy and implementing an autocracy. You want Hungary? You want a government like Russia? Follow that document.
- Comment on Justification for the removal 11 months ago:
Which is because that’s what the law says in Maine - it says she’s supposed to make the decision based on the evidence presented at the hearing, that’s it.
- Comment on Justification for the removal 11 months ago:
Why would she? The 14th Amendment, just as many other parts of the Constitution, is self executing. Even the Federalist Society says so. She held a hearing, as required by Maine law when a candidate is challenged. In that venue, evidence was provided by both sides, and she made a call based on the evidence. That is quite literally her job, in that particular state. If Trump had made a sufficient case, he would not have been removed. As it stands, he’s singing songs with people jailed for attacking the capital and selling them on iTunes. I humbly submit that anyone singing songs with people that attacked our capital and stating they are unjustly being punished. That alone can be classified as aid and comfort under the clause.

- Comment on With support for Biden fading, and the corruption case building, will he quit the presidential race? 11 months ago:
I find it funny that on the one hand Fox positions Biden as an evil mastermind, and on the other, they flog him as an dotard on the decline.
As for job performance - my 401k and the market hit an all-time high last month, inflation is now under control with a pending rate cut(s), wages are increasing faster than inflation currently, and there have been more jobs created under Biden than the last four presidents COMBINED.
I have yet to see any evidence of corruption while he’s been in office - quite the contrary - the amount of wasted effort the GOP has expended trying to find something is… embarrassing.
I’m a center-right voter - I voted Trump in 16’, Biden in 20’. I can’t see any reason to vote for the GOP - they’re intellectually bankrupt right now, with idiots and fanatics running the show.
- Comment on The AP Interview takeaways: Pope decries expanding gun use 11 months ago:
Corrected Headline:
“Cult leader whose cult is responsible for more death than any other organization in human history doesn’t like guns.”
I’m sure we’ll see the Catholic GOP House members move to support sensible gun legislation immediately!
- Comment on Is it safe to use pans with peeling nonstick coating? 1 year ago:
No, it’s toxic. Replace it with carbon steel, stainless steel, or cast iron.
