  1. Its amazing when you actually listen to the actual congressional and senate hearings yourself, then the spin applied by respective cable ‘op-Ed’ channels. It’s unfortunate whats happened with media. Maybe it’s always been that way. Regarding AP... I used to believe they were unbiased, maybe they were, but then I’ve noticed some interesting omissions. as one example they have a story up right now about AOCs testimony of her personal trauma from the capital insurrection, and believing rioters looking for her etc, but failed to mention she wasn’t in the capital building but across the street in her office in a building that wasn’t raided. Not minimizing the feeling it was scary for her in general, but it seems like a material fact, doesn’t it?
  2. It’s not often punters are discussed in the cap casualty realm. keep. Highest paid punter in league is like 3 mil AAV right?
  3. A northeast, southeast, northwest and southwest team represented.
  4. The Saudis really screwed up assassinating that WaPo columnist in 2018. I’m sure they wish their corrupt buddy stayed for another term...
  5. what does that pos have to do with debunking the assertion Democrats didn’t in an way support the Iraq war?
  6. Could be, but the R and D extremists and blind loyalists are like a cult. You can’t convince them to consider water is wet or grass is green if their puppet master “news” outlet said otherwise. they drive conversation and debate away and dispute facts with vitriol and obfuscation
  7. Interesting... March ‘03 is almost exactly what the senate vote was.
  8. Wrong... voting records are facts. Labels spin and making things seem some way are for the sheep to fall in line. https://www.thoughtco.com/2002-iraq-war-vote-3325446 29 Democratic senators and 81 democratic congressmen voted for war. War mongering republicans including leaders such as Biden, Clinton, Schumer and Kerry... 🐑
  9. just a different flock of sheep herded by different Sheppards. I’m sure they are programmed to think the same about you. you didn’t realize one of the things politicians love about war, aside from re-election, media distraction and increased power is the positive impact on the economy?
  10. Thought control and group think is bad. But Keep buying what their selling ya. Right needs your hate as badly as left needs your love. That’s how it all works. you don’t have to pick sides in the ‘are not are too’ game. It’s not a dodge to be a free independent thinker skeptical of groups who’s sole purpose is obtaining and maintaining power.
  11. great read... your link even explains well the chart above. Revving up the military complex is great for gdp.
  12. Wow dumbest take imaginable... how about because corporations employ people? I’d rather my company be bailed out and keep my job then getting a one time government check, personally. and the narrative is that was a one party idea? https://thehill.com/policy/transportation/228836-obama-auto-bailout-was-the-right-thing-to-do
  13. Also incorrect... but keep getting bamboozled by your two party right/wrong, good/bad construct. That’s what they all want.
  14. Only Lukewarm about sending 20 year olds to die. How noble.... 🐑
  15. Most Republicans voted for it as I inferred. Just like most Democrats voted for it. spare me your naive need to vindicate your sacred leaders. There is blood on the hands of the majority of politicians when it comes to most wars. the respective media echo chambers act as marketing tools for exactly this and gloss over their inability for neutral critical thinking. I’m not sure about any deep state, I think it’s shallow politicians doing it right in front of us.
  16. Lies. If the vote was just among D senators war wins 29-21. Your parties ‘anti war’ monicker is just another false narrative the hypnotized sheep eat hook line and sinker. This includes the president and the last D presidential candidate. it was an oil affair, not a Republican affair. It just so happens more oil money and interest flows to the R party, so they lied to their herd convincing them of some preemptive necessity. the best history teacher I ever had broke it down very simply. All wars ever were about money and power. Since most people aren’t willing to die for that, a different narrative like freedom is needed to sell. https://followthemoney.com/how-americas-petrodollar-system-influenced-the-2003-iraq-war/
  17. democrats being the anti war party is just another lie. Sort of like Republicans being deficit conscious.
  18. How about abolishing political parties? why? Because this thread... it’s like my kids arguing... your party guy said EOs bad and then signed a bunch... well yours did first that’s the only reason he did.... well he just did it to fix the ones your guy did before him did... are not are too you're stupid no you're stupider
  19. If I learned anything about crises, it’s that politicians and their media sycophants never let facts get in the way of a good narrative.. at some point I really hope someone figures out why the US is one of the worst covid countries in the world. I’ve seen masks and distancing everywhere for almost a year.
  20. https://www.investopedia.com/top-donors-to-biden-2020-campaign-5080324 Not sure about foods, but here are his favorite hedge funds. I’ve been doing some research to find stocks to buy that should benefit from this administration.
  21. good point. While a lot of what he says is self aware and introspective, as you say, any business formed and run with people has a dark side. I would bet because the amount of money at stake in the nfl and the nature of the business lends to some raw darkness moments, it exists everywhere. consider the military complex. They are in the business of knowingly sending people to risk their lives, not just their health.
  22. some were. I love how that no excuse for bass post aged... 😂
  23. He’s career politician and senator, all he has ever been is talk... but at least he’s calling out the crazy Well then, crackpot it is
