Well then dont I look silly.

Goodness. I wonder what the experimental cutting edge cancer treatment costs, and how it can be covered under the policy everyone suggests is too expensive to begin with? You're making an emotional argument regarding a financial issue. The contract chosen outlines coverage and benefits in exchange for the premium paid. If you're going emotional, why not have the doctor/hospital/pharmaceutical donate services, the govt forgive all taxes, tolls and fees, Verizon toss in free cell service, and Dunkin donuts send munchkins for breakfast? It sucks when cancer comes to call, but its silly to suggest that there should be no limits to treatments.

If Joe Biden had one incident, photo shopped or not, it would be a non issue for me. He's a blathering dolt at times, but an extremely effective politician. He will say or do anything that needs to be said or done, I don't doubt he's a tough guy from the old neighborhood, but he got the pass from the media that Trump never did.

I hate to acknowledge it now, but in the early days of Trump v Clinton, I contemplated whether or not i could have lived with this moron as president and thought maybe it wouldn't be so bad. Biden loves the spotlight and will say or do anything to remain relevant. I think this gives him the opportunity to be relevant, in spite of his own missteps and propensity to round second each time he embraces a woman. You give him far too much credit.

You could have stopped after "is it fair". Of course it isn't. The politics of personal destruction is an age old trick, as is the destroyers-in-fact claiming moral superiority. Many men have made false and unprovable allegations to f with someone else. Many women have made false and unprovable allegations to f with someone else. Most politicians include the ability to do so as a job skill on their resume. The true art is destroying someone else without getting your hands dirty. Joe Biden today on NBC news said their shoukd be an FBI investigation as they had with Clarence Thomas, that it took two days, CT was confirmed but senators were too tough on Anita Hill. He believed her, of course, so the FBI investigation that revealed nothing of merit...revealed what it only could reveal. He said. She said. Biden also made this really awkward comment along the lines of "Have you seen Deliverance? How would you like to be that guy tied to the tree?". What a stooge.

Predictable, given what she's claimed, as predictable as the way this allegation played out against kavanaugh. From Kamala Harris cutting and pasting kavanaugh comments, to schumer and Durban and gilibrand demanding that things slow down, to Feinstein and her antics at the 11th hour designed to kill this man dead in the eyes of the nation, his family and in particular his wife and two young daughters. The whole "she came forward so it happened" crowd is the most full of crap among us. I wouldn't waste my time calling this woman anything more than what she is...a last minute fly in the ointment destined to screw up the confirmation of a qualified guy to the sc. that's her legacy, though if kavanaugh suddenly acknowledges her complaints, at which time we can revisit.

He's a male who clearly was alive during the 5 year period that his accuser knows between 1 and 4 people assaulted her. As she must be believed, it's pretty clear he's a sexual predator so death threats are to be expected. Heck if he's a real sicko death play might even be his kink.

And to jump on this bandwagon just for a moment, it is 100% plausible to me that zealots on the left or right would set a series of events in motion to plan for the future...as in, go to see a therapist, "reveal" something traumatic from decades before, leaving details hazy enough (four white men) from somewhere (elite school), at some time did something bad enough to be traumatic but not so bad as to have prompted a criminal complaint. Include a husband in the meeting, he'll verify everything, toss in the obligatory "therapist f'd up the notes", sit and wait for a white guy from the elite school to pop up on the radar for something he needs to be taken out for and you're good to go. I'm today's world, those in power quickly run with "she must be believed" and bull$t theories like 'experts agree on 2-10% of victims make these things up....like you could have hard scientific data to support something like this. What a disgrace. I've said it before and it's on point here again. American politicians and entrenched beaurocrats impact the outcome of American elections more than any Russian spy ever could, and they get away with it.

I thought it was 'resistance is flutie'.

This is one of the most succinct and on-point tweets of 45's administration. Corker lining up is a good sign

What a sad letter, like pathetic. Mythogolizing? The average fan who looked up to these guys as incredible athletes gets up 4 times a night because their prostate is as big as a tennis ball, they are worried about low T and spend as much time checking their sugar as they do reading a stat line. I have no issue if they can work with the NFL to get a slice of the pie, but leaving the rest of the brotherhood to fend for themselves while they get theirs is sad. They should be forced to listen to Bruce Springsteen's Glory Days 100x before they write their next letter.

I've never had a problem with it, and don't really think you do either. I think you're fron'in. Besides, if he's just living his truth, then it is not a lie.

Honestly, as he gets more than traction for his position (fairly or unfairly) he makes less sense. Tibs: Hey, how come one guy can go to the bank and take money out and no one says anything, but then another guy goes in with a note and a gun and the cops are like going crazy with "its armed robbery".

Special counsel or death by innuendo.

Amen. We can start with this guy. Heck, hall him off to jail for a decade.

Fair point, but I really trust her judgement. She's thorough, for example, her radiator is leaking in her car and she just bought 7 gallons of anti-freeze. Dealer can't find a problem, they say but she's sure of it. How she does it all and still finds time to make soup is beyond me.

If you're guilty of the behavior you feel badly about, or were guilty of it at one time and have bit grown as a human being thereafter, you have limitations but why bother mentioning it? You're limited, after all. If on the other hand, you think it's your obligation to atone for all the bad things that "white men" are responsible for in the world, have at it. I hear ya. I was at the local high school the other day and caught a couple female teachers coming out of the break room. I showed 'em the many, many mugshots of female teachers arrested for sexual assaults on students. When I was done there I screamed at the white male teachers for the same thing, and reminded them that they are also un-oppressed. They were very receptive, except an English teacher who told me un-oppressed is not actually a word. I also tell my wife all the time how frigging sorry should be for all the white women who have killed their husbands for insurance money. She asked me about the white dudes who offed their spouses, which I did not see coming. It's all very liberating.

Sam Darnold was by virtually every account solid or better week 1. Jets win. Week 2, I read a headline that said more negatives than positive. Jets lose. The major swings in consistency are the benchmark that define Darnold's career, and he appears at best a middling qb. If he does not improve his career win/loss % will be around .500%. If you think that's acceptable I don't know what to tell you.

Just a quick reminder, the popular vote is really important in many ways. But, as you probably know, the outcome of the electoral college is what really matters. Come and sit at the table with other patriotic Americans, we have a seat for you over near the bathroom, and one of the legs is shorter than the other, but all are welcome here. Your President Trump cares for you and wants you to know you're really gonna be ok.

The only sensible solution is to have the anonymous party take a lie detector test administered anonymously and a quick summary of the test be given to us by a neutral party. Al Franken perhaps, or maybe Al Sharpton. Whatever else happens, we need to slow down until someone else can be nominated.

Damn, I thought I had it all covered. Nicely done.

I saw somewhere that two of Diane Feinstein's grade school classmates have written in support of their old friend, whom they feel is the true victim here. The NYT is reporting one "Susan B. Anthony" and an "Eleanor 'Els' Roosevelt" have vouched for her character and moral turpitude. To be fair, the Times has not independently verified the accuracy of the letters as they stated "..both appear to have been deceased for quite some time..." This $#@$ just got real

My recollection on the hit was it was obvious, and cheap and should have resulted in a one game suspension. On the other hand troy aikman & joe buck thought him shoving dalton 3 seconds after the ball 2ae out of his hand was a bogus call.

Forgot to look. Was he fined for the forearm to JA last week? That hit was very cheap.

I believe he's waiting for the end game of herr mueller's investigation. There can be little doubt that there is a ton of damaging information that he can release that will cover most entrenched politicians in Washington. What we know about Obama and his crew is enough for a reasonable observer to recognize the Russians weren't the only ones screwing around with the election.
