@ThouArtThat I give her 3 months, so I’ll say September 6 just before Labor Day.

That within a few months we won’t have to say “Ghislaine didn’t kill herself”.

Good!

I voted with a mail-in ballot in Maryland.

Fortunately, there are places where you can drop off your ballot without going through the post office.  They had large bins in the voting precincts, and I was able to drop mine off no problem.

However, @sadoldgirl is right, I have no reason to believe that the counting system is any good.  There are h…[Read more]

I agree for the most part.  The Article does mention the following only:

• That Progressives have won certain primaries
• That Progressives are skeptical about the fairness of the primaries
• That Progressives should fight from out and within the Democratic Party
• That Joe Biden seems to be ahead right now, but that can change
• That they need…

@davidthegnome Well, if such a thing happens, it happens, and we will just have to deal with it.  I doubt it would be Trump, heck Biden’s VP(or Trump’s for that matter) would be a more likely candidate.  Guy has to have a few things going for him which he just does not.

A possible Authoritarian Dictator has have some of the following:

I mean, it’s already bad before that, but Newt definitely changed the dynamics during his speakership in regards to the way they campaign.

Yes, he will.  If he were to lose this November, he won’t have much to stand on.

If he were to win this November, he’ll go off in 4 years.

However, I agree with you at the end.  Even with Biden, with them shoehorning him in like this.  It was basically to prolong an unsustainable status quo.

These folks are repressing the people so much and ma…[Read more]

In the end, I don’t really care that much.  In my view, the way of speaking evolves with time.  As people become more enlightened or know more(or less) the language changes.  What is used now will be discarded and words will change as times go.

Words change meaning, to the point that they often start meaning the opposite of wh…[Read more]

@mistap Exactly, they eschew what is critically important for fluff.  Since it is items like these, that make the left look foolish, which allows them to dismiss the “critically important” turning it in to the same level as this fluff, so that they can have an excuse to do nothing or worse give crumbs to loot wholesale.

@mizzgrizz I agree.  People don’t realize that Obama governed very similarly to George W. Bush.  His warmongering tactics, deportation or immigrants(to the point of his administration being the one to create that infrastructure of putting kids in to cages), as well as reigning over one of the largest transference of wealth from the l…[Read more]

The problem I found with Hillary and what I am seeing with Biden, is that the Democratic Establishment and their adherents are becoming so Authoritarian, that they will fully attack and try to destroy any one who does not follow party-line and fall in line.

They disgust me, and in many ways are acting EXACTLY how they see Trump and his fans are…[Read more]

It really is getting ridiculous.

Also, when I see celebrities virtue signaling right now, from their “I Take Responsibility” and other cringe-worthy actions they are doing.  Which honestly, to me is just them looking for attention more than anything else.

What I dislike so much about these things, is that it TRIVIALIZES the more major…[Read more]

I agree.  Even NY Times was touting that Bernie has lost the lead on the Left.

Where, the important focus is now race, and other intersectional politics rather than Workers’ rights, Health Care, etc.

Frankly, it ticks me off.

Goodness, thugs.

These folk are retired police, which means they were the trainers and emeritus of the force.  Since once you are in an organization like that, you never really get to completely leave.  You still have some sort of influence and contacts.

@mistap WOAH…

Just… Dayum.  Though for some reason, I think I remember reading that article at some point.

I was talking about her complaining about catcalling, only to complain that she’s not getting it.  SMH.  Some folk are confused with themselves.

@ravensong I agree.  Vote for whomever you want, I’ll respect it, especially if one came to it through deep reflection rather than just partisanship.

That’s all I really advocate for.  Just vote, be it the two parties, 3rd party, write-in or blank at the top ticket.  There is more to voting than just the President as well.

There are also ba…[Read more]

@mistap That is pretty funny.  I now have the morbid curiosity to look for that.

They’ll be proud of it.

It’s only problematic if the supporter supports someone like Bernie.

They went after him for Joe Rogan, but Biden now has Fiorina, Bolton, and many other individuals who caused so much damage.  It’s just hypocritical.

@salemcourt You’re right.  I probably would too.

However, in my case, I don’t see a difference between the two with Cardin that is.

Unless his opponent is actually better, but it is very hard to tell.
