Senators reach deal ...
Funny this deal gets passed and i didn't see any catchy
democrats kill virus relief bill
I have seen the Trump supporters on other sites,, still making outlandish claims still blaming democrats about the details of a bill
That Their President is going to sign  unless Fox tells him something else

they killed
it earlier. that’s why you didn’t see anyone say they killed
it this time.
are you denying that senate democrats are the reason it didn’t get passed a few days ago?
When faced with a pandemic, every doctor says the first thing you need, is $35 million for the kennedy center for performing arts. that will keep us all healthy.

many thousands of people
wouldn’t have been furloughed.
you can’t just say, the dems
killed it.

me, regularly criticized republicans and praises liberals.

that? on what major
issues do you disagree with liberals? We’re all
ears wayne, go ahead and tell us which major issues you side with conservatives on?

Since you have so much experience in the private sector, you tell me how many Americans you think got furloughed in the last 72 hours?
I agree three days isn't the end of the world. But the fact is, the senate democrats killed it on Monday, and the did so because they wanted funding for liberal projects, some (not all) of which have absolutely nothing to do with helping sick people - do you agree with this, yes or no? Requiring that companies have officers in charge of inclusion and diversity? $35 million for the Kennedy center for the arts?

It did - to stick up for someone.
It is that I think responding to someone's posts (who isn't talking to you) and insulting their intelligence says something about them. I thought you were better than that but I'm prob. wrong since you seem to be doing that more and more.

Did you duck into a nearby phone booth to don your cape or do you walk around wearing it all the time?

Because you've just been the perfect example of thoughtful and meaningful posts here lately.
Your posts lately are basically a mix of fighting with Jim, calling Scott snarky, or passing your holier than thou judgements on anybody that disagrees with your views, so spare me your thoughts about my character. I sleep fine at night.

Wayne, don’t worry about his supporters. Hold you ground and control what you can control. We will get through this. Do you go on other sites to discuss politics also?

I’m happy to dunk on Congress, but I don’t understand why some people think it should be quick, easy, and painless to get a majority to agree on how to spend two trillion dollars.

Feel free to support all the fish tank cleaner imbibers you want.
Some hope that politicians look for support among the people not so easily confused
Apparently that is not the case with Trumplicans

"House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.) worked to scupper the phase-three coronavirus relief package on Sunday after Majority Whip James Clyburn (D., S.C.) told caucus members last week that the bill was “a tremendous opportunity to restructure things to fit our vision.”
Clyburn’s comments came on a Thursday call featuring more than 200 House Democrats, during which caucus members laid out a list of provisions they wanted to be included in the Senate’s trillion-dollar package."

If a large portion of the population have the view that she committed some sort of crime, let's say, in the way she handled her emails, they are not holding an extreme view, that is, not holding a view that is the furthest from what would be considered "the center," or not holding a view that is held by so few that it is an "extreme" outlier.
There are enough people who think she committed a crime, that to consider their view to be an extreme one seems to be at least erroneous, or, more underhandedly, might be considered a biased tactic to marginalize and dismiss them. And further labeling them beyond that as vitriolic, or haters, is demeaning them as well. It is a pretty shady way to have a discussion.
And if you're trying frame the argument as one can only believe that a crime has been committed when it is brought by "law enforcement" (whatever that means), then your attempt at thought control is closer than you know to that "authoritarian" form of government that you accuse others of.

Since when in America do we arrest people for crimes that in your words
" a large portion of the population have the view that she committed some sort of crime"
But all of law enforcement is unable to find any evidence of these imaginary crime and still have yet to arrest her..

Wow thats an amazing statment

Since when did I say we did?

Since when has it been considered extreme or hateful or vitriolic for people to believe that law enforcement didn't do its job as it should have? We've had powerful civil rights movements based on law enforcement not doing its job. And most Americans don't consider all of those movements to be extreme, or hateful, or vitriolic. Perhaps, by your logic, we should consider them so.

And I used his logic against you. And I didn't disagree with what he posted, so I don't see how it was against me. It seemed to me that he used the back and forth between you and me to rag on Trump.

Nearly two-thirds of Americans believe that Donald Trump committed crimes before he became president, according to a new Quinnipiac poll conducted after Trump’s former lawyer Michael Cohen testified to Congress.
Among those surveyed, 64 percent believe that the president committed crimes before he was elected, with 24 percent saying they don’t think he did.
Those polled were split on whether they believe Trump has committed crimes while in office: According to the poll, 45 percent believe the president has, while 43 percent say he hasn’t.

According to wdmso's way of seeing these things, Quinnipiac must be extremist, vitriolic, and a hater since no crimes were specified but just a belief about general "crimes" that weren't "brought by law enforcement."
