I know this is sarcasm but I just want to say I hate it, actually. Seriously, when was the last time the final 2 (we all know how it goes) were both decent candidates? The fucking 1970s or something? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacepup | 2,412 Administrator · Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Policy agreements or disagreements aside, I had a lot of respect for Obama and McCain, as individuals. That was 2008, but of course it feels like ages ago. And then in 2012, I felt at least Obama and Romney were reasonable, relatively speaking. It has been a wild ride since then. I voted for Obama and I still believe he was and is a stand-up individual. I honestly feel the same about McCain. I think he made some strategic mistakes, and I didn't agree with all of his policies / ideals, but I still had a lot of respect for him. And the more time that went on after 2008, the more respect I felt for him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Link | 2,741 Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 I also had a lot of respect for McCain. I really admired the way that he tried to keep the inter-party dialogue reasonable when many rabble-rousers of his party were openly calling to assassinate his opponent. Too bad it didn't work.

Kguillemette | 1,547 Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 McCain was the adult in the room when the NeoCon movement started taking over. It really made him stand out. Unfortunately for us all, Trump successfully brands any modern equivalent a RINO and sucks all their oxygen. Or at least he used to. I'll be watching the republican primary season closely and aggressive voting against Trump. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, what's the point? Racism sucks, but it's the whole world round. In some places white is seen as better, in others, black, in others, Asian etc etc etc. My buddy and I wanted to perform a gig at a popular joint for beer and Japanese food, we messaged the owner in Chinese, he turned us down as since we sing English songs (mostly Americana fiddle tunes), it couldn't be sang along with by locals. This is quite funny though, as at our other gigs all the locals love CLAPPING to our songs. Furthermore, the defacto performer has NO stage presence, no one watches or listens to her, she arrives late and leaves early, etc. Either the owner of the shop is racist, or he's shagging her. I lean towards both... Nothing sucks more than knowing people are denying you a chance based simply off your skin. For me though, it just makes me want to work that much harder to prove a point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

West is an evil nutcase, but NOT a joke, I wish he was. Sadly, he still has influence. Well, hopefully he'll catch some horrible disease and refuse to be treated, because I'm sure he also thinks medicine is a "Jewish conspiracy" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"As the attack happened, all I could think was, ‘Please Lord let me live, please Lord my daughters need me,'" she continued. "A complete stranger heartlessly spit, beat and kicked me over 100 times just because of my heritage. ... My only hope is that God and the criminal justice system will see fit to make sure this never happens to any other innocent family again.” I have no faith in NYC and their criminal justice system. An unprovoked attack filled with hate, almost killed a senior citizen and this career criminal gets... a whooping 17.5 years? How long before he's out on parole? He beat her within an inch of her life, and this is it? FUCK NYC and FUCK the politicians that made such a light sentence possible. Edited December 1, 2022 by avatar!

avatar! | 1,831 Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 How antisemitism became an American crisis --A well written article-- https://www.yahoo.com/news/how-antisemitism-became-an-american-crisis-174246445.html “You’ve seen a normalization of antisemitism,” Anti-Defamation League president Jonathan Greenblatt told Yahoo News at a recent conversation at the organization’s offices in Manhattan. “We've watched the numbers increase dramatically.” In 2014, the storied anti-bias organization (which now fights racism, nativism and gender-based violence in addition to antisemitism) recorded 912 incidents targeting Jews across the United States; by 2021 the number had spiked to 2,717, a record number. Jews are targets of about 60% of all religion-driven hate crimes across the United States, a fact that is especially surprising since Jews make up only 2.4% of the American population. “It’s a community that desperately needs our support because it’s getting hit from all sides,” FBI Director Christopher Wray said in recent congressional testimony. Very sad that here in the USA Jews, or any minority, should feel so threatened today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrWunderful | 2,927 Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 All he has to do is say “Hunter Biden” and all the low IQ terrorists that support Trump will come and slob on his knob. Wait until he starts selling twitter DMs to China to sell more Teslas there. The inbred hicks will still hold their mouths open for more shit, like they love. Just lapping it all up. Republicans wont accept subpoenas from Jan 6th, I say everyone else subpoenaed about Any Hunter Biden Nonsense (or whatever Hannity makes up in the right wing conspiracy-sphere) throw those subpoenas in the fucking Garbage. James Comer and Kevin McCarthy are gutless bootlickers who can sit on a bowling pin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coming in here, firing off a snipe to "own the libs", and crying when the inevitable backlash occurs (like the last time you posted in this forum) is where you're going to be treated like a troll. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
