Yes, she was a lawyer, though her firm folded...somehow made me think of The Firm...
She got into politics right away out of college, though not as a candidate until this Senate run with Trump's support after she went all in on the Big Lie.

Here is an idea I want to throw out. Why don't we as a nation bag the national anthem at sporting events. Then we can bag the idiotic SotU address. That is a win/win all day long. The SotU address is nothing more than a useless if not self serving dog and pony show. At the end of the day no American will miss the national anthem and no American will ever miss the SotU address.

NATO did work as intended during the Cold War. With the demise of the USSR, I'm not confident that the rest of NATO is still willing or able to deal with the threat of a revanchist Russia, so long as they are confident that the US will do the heavy lifting on their behalf.a fan wrote: ↑Fri Mar 08, 2024 11:44 amThen don't make it sound like a bad thing that NATO worked as intended with your sarcastic "rah rah", and never had to fire a shot.old salt wrote: ↑Fri Mar 08, 2024 12:29 amAs I said -- the mightiest alliance that never fought a war.

Re: The Biden - Harris Era.
NYT fact checking Biden: https://x.com/LeadingReport/status/1766 ... 94173?s=20
1. “15 million new jobs in just three years — a record,” Biden claimed.
• The Times ruled the claim needed context because the job gains “were beginning to return” before Biden came to office from the huge losses during the pandemic.
2. “My policies have attracted $650 billion in private sector investment, in clean energy, advanced manufacturing, creating tens of thousands of jobs here in America!”
• The Times ruled Biden’s statement lacked context and Biden calculated $650 billion based on “public announcements of investments — not necessarily dollars spent — across industries targeted by Mr. Biden’s legislative accomplishments.”
3. “I am cutting our carbon emissions in half by 2030.”
• The Times determined that Biden’s statement lacked context and Biden confused his goal of cutting emissions in half with what his actual policies would cut.
4. “We’ve already cut the federal deficit over a trillion dollars.”
•The Times ruled Biden’s claim needed context:
Under Mr. Biden’s watch, the federal deficit dropped to $1.4 trillion in fiscal year 2022 from $3.1 trillion in fiscal year 2021 — but much of that reduction was attributed to the expiration of coronavirus relief spending. The deficit then rose in 2023, to about $1.7 trillion. The deficit remains higher than it was before the coronavirus pandemic.
5. “You know, there are 1,000 billionaires in America. You know what the average federal tax is for these billionaires? They are making great sacrifices: 8.2 percent. That’s far less than the vast majority of Americans’ pay.”
•The Times reported Biden’s claim did not “technically” reflect the current tax rate.
6. “Many of my friends on the other side of the aisle want to put Social Security on the chopping block.”
•“Republicans are not currently calling for cuts to Social Security,” the Times said. Former President Trump, in fact, said in 2022 that he would never cut Social Security.

Re: The Biden - Harris Era.
So for a lack of context it's possible that Joe was trying to sell the American people a load of BS. I can't imagine any politician lying to get reelected. whooda thunk it? It's funny with those billionaires. They can afford an army of accounts to leave no stone unturned to find every loophole that the federal government has given them. Would it not be a wise idea for the government to take away all of those loop holes?? Then billionaires would actually be paying their fair share. The dirty little secret is those billionaires donate massive amounts of money to both parties to make certain that that never happens.youthathletics wrote: ↑Sat Mar 09, 2024 9:39 am NYT fact checking Biden: https://x.com/LeadingReport/status/1766 ... 94173?s=20

Re: The Biden - Harris Era.
I'm not trying to compare trump to Biden. I only saw a few minutes of snippets from his SotU show. He seemed abnormally jacked up from normal everyday Joe. He was as sharp as a barbers strait razor. So for 364 days of the year he stumbles and mumbles and bumbles his way through every public interaction he is a part of. For an hour and a half he was able to pull it together. Too bad Joe can't be that spot on message the other 364 days.SCLaxAttack wrote: ↑Sat Mar 09, 2024 10:23 amGrasping at straws.

You can actually listen to his speeches, interviews and more, or you can keep believing the 15 second "gotcha" clips that pop up once or twice a month. I gave you a great hour long interview where he's sharp as a tack and actually a relatable human being. But of course you ignored it and didn't give a rats rear end to give it a listen. You prefer to live in your snippet world.
Keep listening to the few minutes and osnippets to make up your mind about his cognitive abilities.

Joe Biden has a 50 year track record of saying really stupid and ignorant stuff. If you don't believe me look it up yourself. Do you wear Ray Bans too? Sounds like your auditioning to be Joes wing man. Joe had a good night at the SotU show. They had Joe juiced up and ready to rock and roll. They should hook Joe up with a pick line of whatever drug cocktail they concocted.NattyBohChamps04 wrote: ↑Sat Mar 09, 2024 12:28 pm364 days of the year? LOL.

Re: The Biden - Harris Era.
So I got to thinking and this goes back to the days of the old forum. Some of the progressive stragglers that are still around today took great pride in insulting, degrading and making disparaging remarks about GWB. Their consensus was that Dubya was stupid, shrub was their favorite nickname. I use to defend Bush by informing them that stupid people don't wind up flying Mach 2 fighter planes. Anybody out there think Joe ever in his life had the mental capacity to fly an F102? That wouldn't have ended very well indeed. In short order Bush was stupid and Joe is a genius. Got it!!

BTW, are you mean and verbally abusive to the people who work for you? Outside of yours truly do you fire F bombs at them? Do you also have a kind and gentle side and a mean and nasty side?? Sorta like president Jekyll and president Hyde. I guess there is no behavior or no amount of rude behavior you won't forgive Joe for? One thing about trump...he is a dick head 24/7/365. He never pretends to be otherwise. I know that from your perspective Joe is just a loveable little old fuzzball.
