Joe Biden confronted by veteran over Iraq War support: 'Blood is on your hands!'

https://www.foxnews.com/media/joe-biden ... ar-support

It is sad that older people are supporting Joe Biden. That guy will not do anything for young people that are economically struggling in life. He will not do anything to legalize cannabis and will not defend freedom. I do plan to vote for Biden in November if he is the Democratic nominee, but I could change my mind.

Yep. Vet Michael Thurman should definitely vote instead for the 5-time draft dodger that insults POWs, publicly berates Gold Star families and who calls the military leadership of this country ‘idiots’.

But that is nothing compared to 'Blood is on your hands!' So what is Biden going to do for me? Why should I vote for Biden in November?

You want Ginsberg to be replaced by a Trump nominee, too? Wow. Seems like just yesterday we had a thread about how stupid people were who bitched about losing the courts to Trump because they hated on Hillary so much they voted for Trump, third party, or stayed home.

Politics isn't about getting everything you want. It never can be. You have to figure out what really, really matters most and not lose sight of it.

So far, so good. . .

Why should I vote for Biden in November?

If you plan to vote for Biden in November, then you can answer your own question as to why you should vote for Biden in November, can you not?

The biggest thing Biden is going to do for you is not be Trump. In this day and age, that's huge.

This is being passed around on social media:

1. You're not just voting for President.

2. You're voting for who replaces Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the Supreme Court.

3. You're voting for the next Secretary of Education.

4. You're voting for federal judges.

5. You're voting for the rule of law.

6. You're voting for saving national parks.

7. You're voting for letting kids out of cages.

8. You're voting for clean air and clean water.

9. You're voting for scientists to be allowed to speak about climate change and for rebuilding the CDC.

10. You're voting for what a President says and does on Twitter.

11. You're voting for housing rights.

12. You're voting for LGBTQ people to be treated with dignity.

13. You're voting for non-Christians to be able to adopt and to feel like full citizens.

14. You're voting for Dreamers.

15. You're voting so that there will be Social Security and Medicare when you retire.

16. You're voting for veterans to get the care they deserve.

17. You're voting for rural hospitals.

18. You're voting so that someone else can have health insurance.

19. You're voting for the preservation of PBS.

20. You're voting to have a President who doesn't embarrass this country every time she or he attends an international meeting.

21. And you're voting against allowing the USA to become yet another authoritarian regime.

22. You're voting for sensible gun laws.

No Democrat is perfect.

Your first AND second choices may have dropped out. Your third might. But the nominee, no matter who she or he is, won't be perfect. They won't pass your purity test. And yet every single one of them will be better than four more years of Trump!!!

If it was the Democrat nominee, I'd vote for a brain damaged pig this November. The GOP did last time; why can't I?

And there is the point that in the last analysis you can always eat the pig. You can't say that about Trump.

Trump once tried selling 'Trump steaks', but I don't think they were genuine. Even then I believe they were not a great success.
