Re: Marriage In Trouble?

I don't think people generally think of social interaction this way, but it's a skill that requires regular practice. I have a sense that COVID caused a lot of people to be out of practice socially. One thing I will say is that COVID really strengthened my marriage; being that tightly confined helpe...

Re: House Republicans in Disarray

I think the #1 reason GOP politicians act the way they do is that they bank on the fact their base does not pay attention to what they do, and they have right-wing media making sure that's the case. #2 is their confidence in their ability to BS their voters. And #3 might be knowing the Democrat vote...

Re: The Trump Criminal Case MEGATHREAD.

Two things. 1. George Carlin said we should think about how stupid the average person is and then contemplate that half the people are dumber than that. 2. Justin Guarini got 42% of the vote in American Idol Season 1 finale. Against Kelly Clarkson. No one will ever be able to convince me that the V...

Re: Honoring Veterans

I saw this earlier today. What (normal) people don't seem to realize is that NONE of this is REAL to DJT. He has NO frame of reference and if he did, his executive dysfunction wouldn't allow him to process it. He has NO frame of reference for the military or what every day civilians face on a daily...

Re: Biden's Economy?

If Ajax would take the time to learn a few principles from a basic economics course, he wouldn't post this kind of gibberish. You say that as though ajax posts in good faith. I don't see that at all. It seems to me ajax posts what he wants everyone else to falsely believe along with him. It's not a...

Re: Honoring Veterans

Here's the latest Biden campaign ad (the video begins with it - I tried to find just the ad, but the link will do).

There are no lines; it's just a series of Trump quotes. It's hard to imagine being in the US military and thinking Trump is the leader we need.

Re: Chris Christie Entering the Primaries

It never ceases to amaze me that Republicans seem to know what crime is, but only want to apply it to "not Republicans." They have no problem trying to garner condemnation for crimes, so long as a Democrat committed it. Otherwise, they aren't really interested in justice, which makes their complaint...

Re: Abortion Messaging

This is 100% anti-American, and should be called out as such. These people are despots with no respect for the people they govern. I can't take any of the GOP's BS arguments at face value when they clearly don't give a crap about guns killing children. They're damned liars about valuing life. They ...
