If people want to see DR type nonsense, they'd got to that forum to enjoy it. He has a good point that Trump absolutely rules with an iron fist, and smites all that disagree with him, basically controlling the actions of an entire party. You want to ignore that, and focus on one of 435 representatives who isn't even the leader of the leftist agenda. You’re asking me to ignore the fact that he took multiple shots at me, and implying I somehow owe him respect in some way/shape/form you deem appropriate. That’s some first level Taylor Swift-angsty-fake-nice bs. I decline your request. What I wrote was historically accurate. The fact that he acknowledged what I was saying while implying I was making something up simply resulted in me responding the way I like to respond—I mocked him. As for your characterization of DJT, whatever. Btw—The fixation on a poster long gone from this site is troubling. Let the anger go.

So just trying to get this straight the thing your upset about is AOC saying people should keep track of the people supporting Trumps BS claims trying to steal this election? Because I mean no ***** how is that a terrible thing? I mean weren't you just using Biden's vote for the Iraq war against him? You know how we all know that....because we kept a ***** list of the people who did. So yeah if you are an elected official and are out there supporting Trumps efforts to steal this election you should absolutely have to wear that down the line. 1 1

I wasn’t using Biden’s vote against him, I was laughing at your contention that an appearance on a Howard Stern show was somehow equivalent to an experienced US Senator analyzing all available intelligence and voting to gear up the war machine. I supported the war effort, at least insofar as Saddam Hussein was thumbing his nose at the international community and that lead a reasonable person to believe he was producing weapons of mass destruction. The question isn’t what he said or did then, it’s how it’s viewed through the prism of time. My philosophy on W Bush, who I voted for twice and politics in general has evolved over the years. Pre-Trump, I was headed down the road that there really are just some major players calling the shots, keeping people like you and me swinging at each other. Bill Clinton. Obama hires Hillary, Hillary is the heir apparent. HW Bush. W Bush. Jeb Bush. It made me a bit nauseous to be honest. So, as I said earlier before another scurrilous attack, I watched folks on your side get all lathered up with BHO’s Hope N Change shtick. He ran in the W is a war criminal platform, then quietly all is forgotten. Dude, I’m asking you—was W Bush the war for oil guy or not? And if he was, why the f didn’t Obama steamroll him using the full might and power of the Oval Office? Today though, thick as theives, W suggesting Biden is a man of character. The problem is, I recall what Biden said about him—was it true what this man if character said? Anyway, same questions exist with Biden, he was part of the game then, the war in retrospect was a massive mistake and I think he needs to answer on it. I do not think DJT on Stern reveals anything, has nothing to do with anything, and is a silly talking point. I needed no additional reasons to think he’s unfit for office. I’ve moved further down the road that there aren’t Ds and Rs, just shades of the same ***** color. The fact that 70m people voted for an over-ripened Joe Biden for president—one laughed off the stage when he first ran decades ago during the Pet Rock era, convinces me even more. As for Das Enemies List, I feel the way I do because these people destroy lives for sport.

So this seems to be more of a tangent on something different you want to discuss and really glosses over what I was saying completely. As to actually discussing it I'd say the idea that these families have some sort of inside track for the Presidency is absolutely true. But I mean it's not exactly any different than families who for generations do other jobs. They have a built upon knowledge, experience, and connections to draw on that give them an advantage. But in the end we're still the idiots that vote for them. For George W not getting in trouble for the War I'd say that might be more him not doing some explicitly illegal. I mean the intel we were given was bad and they were absolutely pushing us into it hard, but in the end it went through the proper channels. I mean it might suck but without any actual evidence of them illegally getting us into the war, congress and even Obama were going to be rather reluctant to charge a President for using the powers they gave him. 8 minutes ago, leh-nerd skin-erd said: As for Das Enemies List, I feel the way I do because these people destroy lives for sport. If you're referring to cancel culture and people being too sensitive then yeah that is a thing but it's not really this thing.

I am not trying to be difficult, but I answered the Biden v Trump/Stern question 3 or 4 times. It wasn’t so much of a tangent as an explanation in regards to your question. I’m inflexible on the Obama/Bush/Biden connection, I recognize that but am comfortable with where I am. It’s one of the main reasons I support DJT and actually getting things done in Washington. As for cancel culture, we’ll have to agree to disagree. Thanks for sharing your thoughts—I understand where you’re coming from.

Yea, see that right there is the problem. A complete lack of any evidence whatsoever caused "reasonable people" to "believe" things that were irrefutably false. Meanwhile the intelligence agencies had zero evidence that it existed. I don't really care what Lenny or the small town barber 'believes". We should have learned from the GW administration that a person's gut isn't to be trusted. I would much prefer people "believe" in the scientific method and let the experts that can gather and understand the evidence provide the deductions instead of talk show hosts on cable news. 1

I had you on ignore before searching out greener pastures, but I’m glad I read this post. It refects the rare intersection of disparate points of view and how the world works. I agree with you on Lenny—what the f does a guy raising a family and balancing work obligations in an upstate NY community know about deep intelligence dives. Likewise, I’d reject what you might have to say at the time. The only challenge now is explaining why Biden pushed forward. I already know what I think, and it’s consistent with my view on the order of things in Washington. Many people like the status quo because it’s someone else’s job to suffer. A vote for Biden is a vote for that particular world order in spite of angry protestations about a bogus war. It’s not just that of course, but why move forward when you can have the 80s again?
