You typed that while sitting under your portrait of Saint John...
I now believe in destroying all billionaires and giving their wealth to socialist politicians after watching this amazing video of rice...
You certainly will not get any black votes. With the exception of Little Richard
Yeah, at some point, common sense and reality will prevail, I'm thinking.
What happens when this thing corrects itself and goes away in short order w/o all the death the left has been promising?

I posted this but the ABC affiliate later deleted it...so after that it shows up on here as Tweet! I'm still not sure if it was a joke or the most heartless thing ever...
But of course somewhat got a screenshot before ABC13 deleted it...sister dies/house burns down..."here is an umbrella!"

That is pretty funny. At least original. Ha Ha. Much better than "Pete is Gay, heh, heh." What about Pete is a neoliberal hack? That's funny.
This is a very interesting development. We'll see what happens. Definitely news worthy.
Ok. I quoted some basic data. Of course, we all draw conclusions from data and I think this data shows problems. Of course, again, we can disagree.
“The right to regulate the use of wealth in the public interest is universally admitted. Let us admit also the right to regulate the terms and conditions of labor, which is the chief element of wealth, directly in the interest of the common good. The fundamental thing to do for every man is to give him a chance to reach a place in which he will make the greatest possible contribution to the public welfare. Understand what I say there. Give him a chance, not push him up if he will not be pushed. Help any man who stumbles; if he lies down, it is a poor job to try to carry him; but if he is a worthy man, try your best to see that he gets a chance to show the worth that is in him. No man can be a good citizen unless he has a wage more than sufficient to cover the bare cost of living, and hours of labor short enough so after his day’s work is done he will have time and energy to bear his share in the management of the community, to help in carrying the general load. We keep countless men from being good citizens by the conditions of life by which we surround them. We need comprehensive workman’s compensation acts, both State and national laws to regulate child labor and work for women, and, especially, we need in our common schools not merely education in book-learning, but also practical training for daily life and work.” -- TR
“The Constitution guarantees protection to property, and we must make that promise good. But it does not give the right of suffrage to any corporation…. There can be no effective control of corporations while their political activity remains. To put an end to it will be neither a short nor an easy task, but it can be done…Corporate expenditures for political purposes, and especially such expenditures by public-service corporations, have supplied one of the principal sources of corruption in our political affairs.” --- TR
“At many stages in the advance of humanity, this conflict between the men who possess more than they have earned and the men who have earned more than they possess is the central condition of progress. In our day it appears as the struggle of freemen to gain and hold the right of self-government as against the special interests, who twist the methods of free government into machinery for defeating the popular will. At every stage, and under all circumstances, the essence of the struggle is to equalize opportunity, destroy privilege, and give to the life and citizenship of every individual the highest possible value both to himself and to the commonwealth. That is nothing new.” --- TR
“The absence of effective State, and, especially, national, restraint upon unfair money-getting has tended to create a small class of enormously wealthy and economically powerful men, whose chief object is to hold and increase their power. The prime need to is to change the conditions which enable these men to accumulate power which it is not for the general welfare that they should hold or exercise. We grudge no man a fortune which represents his own power and sagacity, when exercised with entire regard to the welfare of his fellows…
“We grudge no man a fortune in civil life if it is honorably obtained and well used. It is not even enough that it should have been gained without doing damage to the community. We should permit it to be gained only so long as the gaining represents benefit to the community. This, I know, implies a policy of a far more active governmental interference with social and economic conditions in this country than we have yet had, but I think we have got to face the fact that such an increase in governmental control is now necessary.
“No man should receive a dollar unless that dollar has been fairly earned. Every dollar received should represent a dollar’s worth of service rendered — not gambling in stocks, but service rendered.” --- TR

Somebody had it in for him....It was just a matter of time before the mud slinging started...

Not rooting for anyone to die from CV19, but this is interesting nonetheless:

I thought the picture of Trump ducking below the podium to make fun of Bloomberg was photo shopped.... I saw the video today, ****ing hilarious. Clearly the funniest president of all time.
The word farcical comes to mind for all your posts as you really have no clue versus what you spout, as what you think is "smart". It is not.....
I read the King James version of the bible for personal reasons. You would do good to read or type to yourself too before allowing others to realize things you espouse... it lessens your perceived or more likely imagined prestige....
Great deal of projection in this post. Do we really know motivations of someone else? It is pretty difficult.
Someone tell that moron to quit quoting me out of context.

This makes the point about all the draconian steps Lefties here want to make to the US energy sources & economy while never addressing what they're going to do about much the much larger problem of China pollution. Truth is they're not interested in pollution reduction but control of your lives.Pollution cleared in China after Coronavirus kept everyone indoors.

Then they'll move on to promising death and destruction at the hands of some other impending scenario. One that will be Trump's fault, of course
