  1. The sacrifice point you make is real. But I have a slightly different perspective. I acknowledge the climate is changing, as its always changing, and along with this change are man-made changes on top of the "natural" cycle of the climate. The problem is the solution to replace fossil fuels with renewables like solar and wind. They simply don't have the same level of energy efficiency and cost. In short, its a step backward. And one that will lead to overall lower productivity in any area of the economy that uses a lot of energy. Which mean sacrifice. A lower standard of living for almost everybody. The problem with policy is it hides this outcome. So as long as you're willing to accept a much lower standard of living and give up some of life's conveniences all is well.
  2. From Selena's new Top Secret clothing collection. What's secret is the price. Ladies don't let your husband know how much you spent. Tell him it's a national security secret which if disclosed will expose her shopping methods and procedures to danger. Don't let him fool you by his pronouncements that he declassified it.
  3. You simply proved my point by less repeating what I said. But refuse to apply the same standard of "proof" to yourself that you insist from others. You have no idea whether things are true or false either. So hoax to you too! You're just willing to buy every story the government is selling because that's what your thinking requires you to do. Let me guess, hoax!
  4. Like Dr. Evil's flame pit. "If there is one thing I will not tolerate it is failure." Another hospitalized un-vaccinated COVID death, right?
  5. Dwight is some political hack just like all the opinion and propaganda hacks you constantly quote out of twitter.
  6. Comey admitted that he sent classified government documents to an acquaintance at the NY Times who then published the information in the paper. He acted with clear intent to disclose and by any standard being applied in conversations here for supporting an argument for Trump's guilt, he should be serving time for exposing "secrets". Hillary had unapproved servers at her home that got hacked by Russian and Chinese operatives, and most like Mossad too and perhaps other State actors. When busted and subpoenaed she ignored legal requirements to preserve evidence and destroyed and erased files and e-mails and obstructed the investigation. She denied the FBI access to the servers. Why didn't they raid her as she was uncooperative? She should be serving time for exposing "secrets". Both got a pass for far worse given we have proof they exposed secrets. To this point we know Trump had documents but there is no proof Trump exposed anything. It's all conjecture. Unless anyone has some inside information or firsthand knowledge, which I doubt.
  7. I understood they were shutting them all down. I think the plant is Diablo Canyon they want to shut down next. Maybe they'll mandate powering the State by strapping solar panels and propellers to a space camp helmet with I Luv Gavin decals they'll force everyone to wear when they shut down civilization and direct the State's citizens to return to living in the woods where they can compete with squirrels and woodchucks for nuts and berries? I'm betting on the squirrels here as they are a lot more intelligent that most give them credit for, and certainly much smarter than the average neo-liberal climate enthusiast.
  8. Medical community gone rogue addressing a psychological self-identity issue with a surgical solution preying on children that have not fully developed physically or mentally. In the old neighborhood we used to deal with such child predators with baseball bats and tire chains.
  9. If the DOJ claims these documents are classified, then they violated handling rules and procedures for classified materials by taking and releasing photo(s) of classified and secret documents. So arrest Garland and anyone involved! Ha, ha..
  10. I expect Singletary will have a productive year. Meaning he makes the most of his touches. Whether he accumulates the stats to break the 1K rushing yards level I'm not so sure. With the addition of Cook and what looks like a healthy Moss the Bills look good at RB. Add in what should be better performance from the offensive line group and improvement in the yards per rushing attempt stat, I think the Bills will meet one important goal. Being able to run the ball effectively when they "need" to run the ball. Whether that's getting the tough yards in the red zone, running some clock when required, or going to the ground game if the passing game stalls out. The other thing I want to see with the backfield of Singletary, Moss, and Cook are less Josh Allen designed runs.
  11. You're finally getting it! That's exactly what he's doing. Its always the people that accuse somebody else of something that are doing that something.
  12. Maybe you can explain something for us simpletons? What firsthand information or facts do you have that allow you to state with 100% certainty that you know the truth and the facts and posters that express views that conflict with yours are a "hoax"? Did you personally participate in the planning and execution of the search? Did the White House, FBI, or DOJ consult you for your input or provide you with a detailed report of the operation? Maybe somebody that participated in the action gave you a call and brought you up to speed on how it all went down? I'm guessing probably not. So you're in absolutely no position to label anything others say as a "hoax" because you have no capacity or capability of knowing the full truth at this point. It's just your opinion. No better, no worse than anyone else's given the situation.
  13. The FBI operated here without WH input or consent? That's what the rubes call a whopper of a good story.
  14. Rather than take Biden's much more effective and traditional approach of authoritarians and use the apparatus of State power to target your enemies with violence and threats.
  15. Carlson's assessment that Putin is winning the war is pretty close to the target. While Russia might not be "winning" they are certainly not losing. Europe is losing. The EU is losing, The UK are losing. Their economies are being destroyed. Inflation is running out of control, The value of the Euro is plunging. Prospects for Winter look bleak. Gas and electric bills are out of control. The "green" agenda is proving a disaster. Food costs are rising faster then here in the US. Sitting governments are unpopular. Policy is clearly out of touch with the demands and needs of the public. The rule of the current order in Europe is crumbling. Its only a matter of time until some country folds on sanctions and defies Washington. Then what? On the other side financial restrictions and sanctions while harmful have not dealt the intended deathblow to the Russian economy. The primary reason, they spent years preparing for it. That was always Putin's game. Not some territorial conquest to reacquire all the former Soviet States beginning with Ukraine as some Western intelligence and Russia "experts" claim. And while everybody's cheering on Ukrainian "counter attacks" the objective is and has always been to reduce or eliminate US influence in Europe. Add all the countries you wish to NATO. Bombs and missiles don't put food on the table or heat in the house. Today, another wrinkle as word the first shipment of Iranian drones to Russian forces has been sent. That should add another layer of complexity to the situation and the nuclear deal they're negotiating with the West. What's clear is where they stand and it seems politically unacceptable for Washington to agree to a deal with Tehran given they're supplying Putin and providing direct support.
  16. What's ironic is you seem oblivious to your own bigoted intolerant attitude and statements. Maybe stop and think that you're being more "judgy" than the people you criticize?
  17. Everybody's got plausible deniability and the media gives it the Sgt. Shultz treatment (I know nothing, I see nothing, I hear nothing) along with asking no critical or logical questions and you've designed the perfect process of systemic ignorance.
  18. The FBI claims the laptop misinformation warning Zuckerberg revealed was nothing more than one of the regularly issued warnings and messages communicated to media platforms about potential and actual disinformation. Let's say that's true. The problem with that is they knew the laptop was genuine. As there's all kinds of ways to prove authenticity. Serial numbers, warranty registrations, software update IP address logs, software purchases and loading, session logging, verification of authenticity from people copied and messaged on e-mails, verification of events, place, times, and participants, and so on. All these things provide proof to assign ownership. A legitimate investigation could include all these things and others. Did they do any of these things? Most likely no, They just buried the story for 2 years. And now change their story. So knowing it was genuine, the FBI made a conscious decision to lie and spread misinformation about the illegitimacy of the contents of the machine. What was their motivation to lie? And who ultimately signed off on the operation to suppress evidence?
  19. It was Bush/Chaney that lied to Congress and the American public to justify action against Iraq. They waved the flag, told some lies about connections to 9/11, and Congress rallied behind it with few exceptions. Because anyone opposing the program was unpatriotic. But no hearings, explanations, or time served for any of these whoppers which resulted in the deaths of 100's of thousands Iraqi's along with US service personnel. Now after 20 years of occupation under a puppet government the natives are growing restless. Most likely urged on and instigated by Iran. Add in the intrigue around the Iran nuclear deal and throw Russian and Chinese influence into the mix and its all quite a mess. Mission accomplished. Also, there's trouble brewing in Libya between various factions left over from the brilliant nation building exercise that removed Gaddafi. Another "bad" guy replaced by more "bad" guys. One thing for certain, the enemies of the empire see weakness and are pouncing everywhere. With hope the Biden administration can send some diversity trainers and deploy drag queen shows to distract the angry mobs.
  20. Because at the end of the day charging an ex-president for this "violation" is a flimsy legal argument and they know it. Charges would require the DOJ/FBI to reveal what they were really looking to retrieve and bury in the archive for 50 years. I'm guessing that's original copies of Russia hoax documents from as far back as 2016 implicating the agencies and specific persons in illegal acts of espionage and treason against the incoming administration before, during, and after the 2016-2020 term.
  21. Top of the woke pyramid are trans men that screw household pets on their lunch break while watching MSNBC. Just the mental image of that should get all the lefty perverts and child molesters excited about the next preferred victim group.
  22. Well, if you're not happy with my answer I suggest you go on for now happily cheering on the DOJ/FBI for what they do best. Setting up clueless Hillbillies in Michigan and executing SWAT team operations to drag senior citizens into the streets in the middle of the night. While I just wait patiently for the case here to fall apart.
  23. The crickets you're hearing are coming from the DOJ. Its been 3 weeks and they've done jack. They redacted almost the entire affidavit. If there was some smoking gun in there it would have been disclosed in yellow highlighter. But nothing like that. As time passes it will become obvious this was simply a political hit job executed by a desperate and failing administration. As for classified and secret documents, cry me a river. If it was you or me then no question, but no charges against a former President that had possession of documents while still in office and was cooperating with the archivist to process them per required procedures is going to happen. Like the 2017 Cleveland Browns the 2022 Washington Brandons are laying another big fact goose egg to add to their O-fer record. My guess is they called the Hail Mary play looking for something big a "credible source" suggested was out lying around the house and they failed to find it. Nobody has to make up anything. These fools will hang themselves. But for now its damage control time. That's all I've got to say for now. As I await the crying and shrieking from the weaklings when they realize "Satan" has once against escaped punishment.
  24. Frankly, I expect legal objections will be filling challenging the President's authority to "forgive" any of this debt. Sure you can issue any executive order he fancies but can he modify contracts and agreements governed by legislation? The argument will be this requires legislative action. It should be interesting. I don't think the Federal government "holds" the note on these debts. On the Federal governments accounting books and accounts. It could be large banks or some entity like Sallie Mae. The Fed provide "guarantees" that would kick in if there was a default to pay these institutions and banks. I don't know the specifics here, but I expect it would require the discharge of the debt through something like a bankruptcy filing. What Biden is doing is paying off $10K or $20K of loan balances from people that are judged to be solvent or credit worthy. So what's going to happen here? If I hold a student debt of $100K and Biden is forgiving $10K I'd have to be nuts to pay off the other $90K. I'll wait until they forgive the rest. Thanks Joe.
  25. The term moral hazard comes to mind here. People are asking fundamental and legitimate questions. What about me? What about my debts? And why should I subsidize people with degrees from places like Harvard and Yale? Why aren't these universities with multiple billion dollar endowments pitching in a few pennies for paying off loans students took out for the sometimes worthless and high priced degrees these places are peddling? Other questions about personal responsibility. All legitimate questions. And just why is student debt more worthy of forgiveness than other types of debt? What about home owners that are now underwater with their home loans? Owing more than the home is now worth, shouldn't they be forgiven a portion of their debt? Or car loan borrowers that are behind in their payments. Shouldn't people that depend on their car to get them to and from work or school or transporting the kids get a break? What about consumer credit card debt? Shouldn't consumers strapped with big balances and monthly payments at onerous rates above 20% have a portion of their debt forgiven? And while we're at it, why hasn't a presumed "progressive" majority proposed or passed legislation to cap obscene interest rate charges? Joe has created more trouble than its worth here. Because the freebie Genie's out of the bottle and there's no putting it back. He'll end up placating a small minority of his base but pissing off and alienating almost everyone else. Politically stupid right now, and economically a disaster. At this point I'm wondering why any of us should have to service any loans or payments of any kind? I mean, we "deserve" nice things too, right? Let the government and the taxpayers take care of it. Time to enjoy the good life for everybody!
