POLITICAL THREAD

[UKBrassowTipIN]

Why the argument over mlk, the blm/social justice crowd of today hate mlk bc they lean Marxist. Mlk, even if you consider him socialist, did not agree with Lenin/marxism...which is the difference in thought too over violent vs non violent protest. Today's social justice crowd believe the end justify the means

 

[*CatinIL*]

I don’t believe that God would be ok with LGBTQIST and whatever other you liberals come up with. You might want to read up on Sodom and Gomorrah.

Give them enough time and it will be A-Zers...

 

[DrH. Lecter]

There is no record in the Bible saying abortion is never acceptable. That is my point.
Republicans are passing highly restrictive abortion laws with the Bible as a basis... When there is no evidence of this.

It's right there in the verse saying we can fly in airplanes and drive electric cars. Clown.

Fact: Tampon Tim signed 40 week abortion law which is many weeks beyond Roe. Leftists are radical and out of step with America and Europe.

Politics and Baseball...
Would Kamala Harris know the difference between a baseball and a coconut?
I say no.

 

[sambowieshin]

You didn't answer. Can a man have a baby?

A biological male cannot get pregnant and give birth. Who cares??

That's why we need a national law. It will prohibit nutty left wing 40 week abortions and nutty right wing rape baby laws.

Bama’s defense is not good. What a letdown.

When Bama loses…America wins.

 

[*CatinIL*]

Baseball update....LA fans getting testy about something. Someone probably held up a Go Trump sign and got all their thongs in a bunch...

Pathetic loser fans...

Update...pathetic LA fans were throwing stuff on the field. Losers!

 

[trueblujr2]

i like baseball but have lost interest over the years. i spent many, many afternoons and evenings at riverfront stadium back in the 70’s. i still watch the reds on tv when i can

Hoping like hell this Terry Francona hire pays off.

No they're doing it in accordance with the rest of the developed world instead of doing it for a money maker which democrats are doing with massive abortion lobbies funneling it to them.

Remember when you went apeshit when democrats blocked birth control being over the counter? Oh you didn't know...yeah they did. Wonder why...they claimed bc it would be unaffordable, but all that money planned parenthood gets could easily pay for it.

Not a single Democrat has stepped on the floor of Congress to promote a constitutional bill...bc that would mean they'd gave to explain why they support 9 month abortion, which no developed country on earth supports

 

[Cold Stout Beer]

Say What??

 

[*CatinIL*]

Sorry LA...just ANOTHER long 3rd OUT. Go sit down clowns...no offense @HymanKaplan

Anyway, kamala is still being Kamala...Uh, Ummm, well, I think, maybe, ummm, I like Yellow buses.

 

[CastleRubric]

Update for all you political nerds that wouldn't know a baseball if it hit you in the head...the SD Padres are up on the Pathetic Draft Dodgers 3-1.

Oh, and BITE ME if you don't like me tossing in a little baseball talk into this endless thread.

I ALWAYS lose track of baseball and forget this time of year is the title run
LOVE watching baseball pitchers - pitching is always fun to watch
The rest isn't interesting and the sport scared me as a kid and the coordination required to HIT a ball - maybe the hardest feat in sports?



About politics though - it seems like any political discourse or proposed policy - from elected officials down to armchair bureaucrats - should always be somehow couched in the context of where we are historically - right?

Some basic mutual understanding the US assumed a radically different posture and philosophy and opa tempo after 9/11 - AND the post WW2 dollar dominance globally - isn't a permanent fixture of the geopolitical landscape

Because it seems like there are no voices of restraint - and there's almost an assumption we can and should continue functioning more like an empire - and one that uses coercion and military force in situations that often serve other nations or corporate/banking interests vs genuine threats to our citizens or states

We have generated a LOT of resentment and done some pretty haphazard things since 9/11

I think acknowledging that plus the systematic migration of nations fm the dollar and the obvious needs for attention in our backyard - should be the jumping off point for a healthy discussion about how we make foreign policy decisions -

Are you SURE we need to deploy to nation-x at this time?
It really HAS to be us?
New congressional budget and NDAA's - are we REALLY maintaining the configuration of military resources where we left them after WW2?

Do we REAAAALLY want to allow the insane flow of unchecked foreign masses into a country without any logical evaluation of economic or epidemiological impacts?

Just feels like we have no national dialogue on some things that REALLY matter & may soon become critical -

It would be a wonderful if the sane people all acknowledged that we have differences BUT we need to STOP electing ANYONE fm the professional political classes

Start radically voting - even drafting - each other
It wouldn't be overnight- but that would be a political exodus worth taking together



I WILL edit this down later -
Will be up late 💪🤓

Even tho tomorrow is oct 7 and an anniversary of the worst attack on jews since the holocaust

What's the over/under democrats and the press say we must condemn Islamophobia tomorrow bc they gotta pander for those votes

 

[*CatinIL*]

OK San Diego, you're up 3 in the 8th. Don't blow this like a Vice President...

 

[*CatinIL*]

I think they will focus on Jan 6...

 

[Blackish_Mamba]

I want to see a full MLB season with LSD. All 162 games.

 

[*CatinIL*]

SD up 6-1 over the Dodgers after a 2 run dinger. Suck it LA!

Meanwhile Joe Biden is sleeping soundly after licking a pint of ice cream tonight. Just trying to put a political twist in this post.

Carry on...

 

[CastleRubric]

Thou shalt not kill - Exodus 20:13

Before you try to dissemble on this, abortion has been condemned since the early days of the Christian church.

I don't normally touch this topic but I think any discussion about "abortion" needs to acknowledge the harvesting of cells and "parts" fm the baby and under what conditions that's occurring

Cause that practice - adds a whole new set of motivations, ethical decisions and secondary medical concerns - not to mention a demand side market likely needing more transparency

And now - camomile tea (don't laugh HK📡)

 

[HymanKaplan]

Boom goes the dynamite

I'm liking the baseball talk in here. This needs to continue all the way through the WS.

 

[CastleRubric]

NFL stat

There’s only three starters who have a Super Bowl ring. Mahomes, Stafford, and Rodgers (his was 14 years ago).

Crazy.

I THINK there's only two QBs that went to Super Bowls with two different teams ---

i THINK that still stands anyway

 

[*CatinIL*]

7-1...just sayin...

 

[HymanKaplan]

Earl Morral?

Tom Brady?

 

[Caveman Catfan]

There was a time when I thought at least the Bible was off limits and the right would at least not let Trump slap his name on that and change it. How stupid of me? Nothing is too far for him that they aren’t willing to accept. If he came out and said “I’m changing the flag. No more Stars and Stripes, we’re going with my face and the MAGA logo” and half the country would be like “Exactky what we need. Trumps face shows dominance to the rest of the world, I’m tired of looking weak.”

The fact that everyone on this board is cool with Trump hawking a fake bible and then getting a kickback from schools for having it in the classroom tells me all I need to know. And no I don’t expect it to make you choose to vote for Kamala but at least admit he’s a conman POS that caused you to sell your soul out.

It’s good to see Bibles in schools. Period.

 

[HymanKaplan]

Kurt Warner did it too (pretty sure) . so that's three at least

Jim McMahon was on the packers 1997 team, so that's four.

 

[HeismaNole]

I THINK there's only two QBs that went to Super Bowls with two different teams ---

I think it’s three but that’s still a crazy stat- Warner, Manning, and Brady.

 

[HymanKaplan]

And Earl Morral (Colts and Dolphins)

Craig Morton did as well (Cowboys and Broncos)

Brother-in-law lives in Clearwater. They are in the direct path this time it seems. He lives on the bay side close to the Clearwater airport, so hopefully surge won’t reach him.

 

[HeismaNole]

Kurt Warner did it too (pretty sure) . so that's three at least

Jim McMahon was on the packers 1997 team, so that's four.

I think he’s only talking starters because Jimmy Garoppolo (no idea how to spell it) was a backup for the Pats in two Super Bowls but a starter for the 49ers.

 

[*CatinIL*]

A Political UPDATE!!!! Padres up 7-1 heading to the 9th...

 

[trueblujr2]

What percentage of the country thinks "patriotism" is a bad word? Evil word. My how times have changed. I know exactly what the libs on this site will say. Just wait.

How long before the New England Patriots are forced to change their name?

 

[Dionysus444]

Not a single Democrat has stepped on the floor of Congress to promote a constitutional bill...bc that would mean they'd gave to explain why they support 9 month abortion, which no developed country on earth supports

????? The Democratic House PASSED one in 2021...

 

[HymanKaplan]

Craig Morton should count (he started for both teams (cowboys and broncos) , as should Earl Morral, because Morral started 11 games (all wins) for the 72 dolphins.

 

[*CatinIL*]

How long before the New England Patriots are forced to change their name?

That's a good question.

 

[CastleRubric]

I want to see a full MLB season with LSD. All 162 games.

Thats a lot of - inner journeys, mamba

Bet it would eliminate fights though -

There's NO WAY the batter is making it all the way to that mound without getting distracted by seagulls/melted fan faces/insanely bright grass and confused giggling

this LSD discussion reminds me that baseball has an unreasonably long season - HOW does anyone stay focused on that mess?

 

[HymanKaplan]

The New England football team's mascot should be a picture of a "Southie" puking on the sidewalk outside of "Sully's"

What a shit town, filled with shit people.

Ask Dock Ellis.

 

[*CatinIL*]

Why are there no LA "fans" sitting directly behind the plate now?

Oh, never mind, they must be late to cocktail party.

EDIT!!!!!!!!
OH, UPDATE...ANOTHER DINGER FOR SD...10-1
It's hard to keep up! It's like trying to keep up with the number of times Joe Biden has gone to the beach during his time as POTUS!

 

[HymanKaplan]

LA is a crap sports town. Always has been. In fact, having lived in California, I can state the obvious and tell you it sucks; (except Napa)

 

[CastleRubric]

Craig Morton should count (he started for both teams (cowboys and broncos) , as should Earl Morral, because Morral started 11 games (all wins) for the 72 dolphins.

craig morton
Peyton manning
And kurt warner

DAMNitALLTOHELL - forgot about earl morral

so - sorry AND thank you, Sgt K

 

[Caveman Catfan]

Why is the outrage confined? As Tom McDonald said, the right doesn't riot. The left can't shoot straight. The right isn't professional victims or agitators like the left has. And, IMO, the election pales in comparison to covid and the response. That was on a much larger scale and was the most dangerous removal of liberty ... for a really bad cold. The "science" didn't make any sense ... you have to wear a mask, unless you sit down to eat. Why? Because covid doesn't transmit when you're sitting down or eating? The whole response was Fing stupid on steroids. "Vaccine" passes? Change the def'n of a vax so you can call the jab a vax? Remember, this news segment is brought to you by Pfizer ... and peoples lives were destroyed, education was set back many years, people are generally lazier now.

You know ... it really sucks, but the only action i see about 2020 is to press forward and make my life better for me and my family. If the ship is sinking (and it will, all Republics do), then I cannot stop it. Besides, what can be done about 2020 NOW? Nothing, the damage is already done and the destruction of our Republic was accelerated to ludicrous speed.

Read cat chasers post right after yours (EDIT: vh responded to cat chaser). 2020 isn't so simple as to be "one thing". There are SO many things that were fraudulent and they ALL conveniently broke towards the Dims. And you don't need "widespread", you only needed it in a dozen counties.

A stolen presidential election by far eclipses the COVID oppressing of rights, because it would steal the power to pull off other Covids.
