By the way Tweety has played more golf than Obama did in two terms

He has probably eaten a lot more than Obama too. He should probably consult with Obama on how much he should eat and play golf. That would make him a good President. And maybe he should have consulted with Obama on which judges to nominate.

So Trump doesn't know the constitution?

right. You only did it to point out the hypocrisy but now want to discuss the serious things.

I got it.

Yo Semites, Thighland, Minneanopolis, plosma, totallyterrytism, Ulysseus S. Grant, America's frownders -- these and more are all from Tweety.

Now Tweety and his minions are trying to convince you it's Biden who's cognitively challenged?

They are both, like most of us, very flawed people. But it's not about which least flawed person should we vote for. It's about whether to slow down and continue to slowly reverse the Progressive agenda of an unlimited government, or to put its agenda back in high gear.

Not about Trump the narcist renegade

Not about Biden the decrepit phony Democrat tool.

Not about Trump . . . not about Biden . . .

Perhaps you could go and educate Tweety about the Constitution

Or you could just ........ https://www.privateislandsonline.com...ilability=sale

It's not about Trump. It's not about Biden. You keep trying to drag us into a discussion of Trump. It's not about Trump. He is not supposed to make law. Nor is the Court supposed to make law. The more we vote for Progressives, the more Presidents and Judges will be empowered to make law. Educate yourself about the Constitution. And about the Progressive agenda re the Constitution and The Court.

I’m pretty sure the upcoming election is about both, one has a clue and the other is clueless. We all are really sure who your voting for, but you keep preaching to an audience of what three or four, it’s really sad to watch. Nothing you say is going to change our minds, but I have to say, you and Pete are relentless in your efforts. If a gray squirrel was on the Democratic ticket against Trump, Rocky the flying squirrel gets my vote.

oh my yes, biden sees things more clearly then trump. watch the first debate, then let’s see if you can say that with a straight face.

biden PROMISED that if he won, there’d be a cure for cancer. go ahead and defend that. tell us that’s not taking advantage of people at their most desperate and vulnerable.

so it’s a character flaw when others post, but let
me guess, not when you do it? you’re getting stupider and meaner.

I never said it was a character flaw, I thought I clearly said it cracks me up that posts continue to be put up, in what appears on the surface to be an attempt to change others perspectives and that on this board will NEVER happen. Post away, enjoy your freedom of speech, I find it humorous to see the continuing debates as if anything on either side will change. We are over 5 million cases, this crazy wacky board is like late night TV to me, sad and funny at the same time.

Bump, for two reasons...
1. Any word on the big healthcare reform that was supposed to happen in two weeks, months ago?
2. Looks like Trump knew Covid was pretty bad in February but downplayed it anyways (via Bob Woodward)... Still digesting this one, and want to read the transcripts for full context....

I doubt you'll see the transcripts other than the recordings he released. It's not that alarming We knew Trump has been selfishly misleading Americans and costing lives to minimize political harm. Only difference now is that it's clear he was fully informed to the seriousness of the pandemic from the beginning and has lied incessantly about it.

It's not even like his shirking his oath to the Constitution any more, Trump has been intentionally working to harm Americans.

Considering the blatant lie or mistruth count is up over 20,000 at this point, getting the honest real truth about anything would be the real shocker. I’m sure our resident Sarah Huckleberry Mr. Debate will get out his blue font to tell us how wrong we are to call them lies. I really think it’s time for him to change the blue font to the real color he represents on this board, it would be more honest.

You could just listen to the tape, though his followers will claim he's just misunderstood or was joking.

They're just going to say he's always told the truth and cares deeply about the health and safety of the American people. His base will just lap it up.
