“O give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endures for ever.

Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom he has redeemed from the hand of the enemy”

*correction* He said it was before he ran for Congress and while he was on vacation so it doesn't count.

Disney has lost $50 billion in value since war with Florida began​

And Florida has more hammers to drop on Disney.

 

[FirewithFire]

Take solace in the fact that you assuredly disagree on solutions to that problem.

Identifying the problem is not the limitation for radical leftists, it's their ignorant and dogmatic solutions.

Yeah, some of it is just moonbeam bullshit, but some of it I wholly agree with, like counseling.

There comes a time in any war when you have to change tactics. That time has come and gone for the war on drugs. Prohibition was a massive failure and so is this current "war".

I urge everyone to look into who started the war, and why is was started. It will explain a great many things. Also, look into why cannabis (hemp) was outlawed and why the FBI wanted no part of it.

Hint: It involves lobbyists and corporations.

I keep hearing about how Dems have supposedly gone super far left. Here's a platform statement from the national convention that seems pretty reasonable. Is this the "insane hard left turn" the party's taken? Which of these do y'all disagree with? Don't seem so outlandish to me.

Politico can’t post these fast enough. Hunter Biden pics after being available for at least a couple of years they won’t even acknowledge. This is why no one considers these people journalists anymore. It’s all just gotcha stuff, on both sides of the spectrum.

 

[AustinTXCat]

The green new deal includes nothing because it is a resolution not a bill. It is just a text of ideas to fight climate change and build back up the poor and middle class. It has no laws and no enforcement. It's just Congress being a useless Congress as always and proposing a resolution to discuss future legislation. I don't know why Congress is even allowed to pass these useless resolutions. It's just their way of wasting time and getting media attention. It's essentially their grandiose Twitter feed.

1. More give aways instead of getting people to work

2. SS has been going broke as long as I can remember. BS

3. open borders.

4. minimum wage is not supposed to be a career goal. If you’re making minimum wage after a year, you got bigger problems.

5. why do they need to increase unemployment when there are thousands of jobs that need filling?

6. union money grab

7. you get what you are worth

1. How much federal assistance is already provided? This is worded as if it’s non-existent. The number is likely astronomical already. But I have no problem with improving infrastructure in any community. The problem is that any bill passed has so much pork in it the consequences outweigh the societal good
2. Obviously no blue collar citizen would have a problem with this. Bad thing is they don’t mean it. Neither do the RINO GOP’ers
3. Every immigrant who enters this country should be properly vetted and prove they can benefit our society. Period
4. Raising minimum wage in an economy with ever rising inflation benefits no one.
5. Yes we definitely don’t have enough people on federal assistance. Let’s sign everybody up.
6. No problem with improving working conditions. Unions don’t give a rip about the workers anymore.
7. No problem with the last one. Should have always been this way. But In salaried positions where talented people are in high demand, corporations sometimes have to offer signing bonuses and other perks to get their man… or woman.

Where is equal pay for equal work not a thing, especially for sex? Thats already a law for starters.

I've never once heard of saying huck huck there's a woman, let's pay her less. A. If corporations are so greedy...wouldn't they just hire all women and save. B. It defeats basics of capitalism that I wouldn't pay a woman more of she brings in more revenue/value or else a competitor would.

I remember when bernies campaign discovered that men were making more...bc they were working more...instead of asking why the women didn't work more hours, he just made the men get paid less. Lol.

If this is the Democrat platform they do an incredibly shitty job of selling it. Not to mention its the govt, writing cuddlies on paper doesn't translate to anything but inefficient unintended consequences that does nothing except demand everyone continue to pay more and more in taxes with no solutions.

I can start on each of these, but social security is always my most annoying issue. The ultimate ponzi scheme of theft.

 

[Mash 2.4]

If the memo doesn’t mention altering election law enabling them to commit fraud in the easiest way humanly possible. And passing legislation in order to eliminate dissenting opinion while couching it as “fighting disinformation”.
Then it isn’t their real agenda.

 

[SDC888]

The Biden Sanders action plan is their real agenda; it's quintessentially democratic socialist and wholly unacceptable.

Thanks for the responses. To all: THIS WAS THE REPUBLICAN PLATFORM OF EISENHOWER'S 1956 CAMPAIGN. Yes, Ds have moved left since then. But Rs have moved MUCH further right. It isn't debatable, and it's destroying the very foundations of society. Thank you all for playing.

Regarding your 100% correct view of SS as a Ponzi scheme.

When it was introduced with a retirement age of 65, the average life expectancy at the time was 62.

Do you think this is some type of gotcha? We kind of all agreed they were good ideas, but overly simplified. I think as a base line many conservatives would still be fine with this. Except for the immigrant asylum point. And if you think that situation hasn’t changed significantly since 1956 then you’re just being disingenuous.

He just went to work over the last week researching/trying to figure out some way to twist reality back into his favor.

Copy/pasted what he found here.

The country has gone radical left and his very existence proves it. IF it hadn't, the kind of idiocy he spews on here daily would be readily apparent to everyone nationwide, even on college campuses and the worthless academics that taught him it, for the malarkey that it is.

It's a complete joke that people midwit ingrates like him actually think/say what they do with a "straight face."

It might be but the dims are for all of that now. not to mention crt, pediphillia and defunding the police.

 

[jameslee32]

Those stupid people Trump hired had the economy doing slightly better than it was right before the Ukraine/Russia war started. Take out Covid (which Trump wasnt responsible for but does get some blame for how he responded) and it’s an even bigger difference.

wut?

That's the point. Those statements could have easily been from a D convention today. Those are all tame, moderate positions most of the country should be able to agree on. Even Republicans from nearly 70 years ago. But to today's GOP? Radical socialism!

Yes. Growth should not be the number 1 priority of our society. The welfare of the people should be. Economies only exist to serve people. People are what matter.

How about when she lied on the stand about calling Pelosi a traitor? Perjury only matters when it's about a blowjob I guess.

Hillary has lied repeatedly under oath. So has Fauci. Are they in jail or unable to run for office? Not sure why Green would deny saying it anyway. It’s an opinion. Oh and Pelosi is a traitor.

Yeah I don't care at all, they all lie. She's just dumb. They obviously had it in evidence as he immediately went to "exhibit 5" so she should've even been prepped on it right?

Yeah. Agree with ya there. She should have just said yeah I think she’s a traitor. Not sure why that would even be used as evidence anyway. If you think Nancy Pelosi is a traitor you shouldn’t be eligible to run for Congress?

Only speculating, but that one’s probably motive. If you actually think the Speaker of the House is a traitor you might be motivated to take extreme steps to remove them. The eligibility is part of the insurrection and the 14th Amendment, I would assume they have to tie her to Trump's Eastman plot.

That was a pretty good one.

I can say the same thing about Kennedy that you say about Eisenhower, by the way. Hell, even Clinton's first term was based on things like school choice, balanced budgets, and opposition to illegal immigration.

Have you ever heard of the equal and opposite reaction? The right's move to the right has only been an equal reaction to the left's rush into the absolute abyss of insanity. The left is straight up F'ing moonbat crazy now.

My dad and his whole family were life long die hard democrats. Straight party ballet voting types. Even he won't vote for that group of degenerates now.
