  1. Obviously, it was God's will! Stick with loudspeakers on minarets.
  2. If you meet an American who tells you they are pro-life ask them how they feel about capital punishment. Prepare to hear self-contradiction.
  3. His very real problem at this moment, which it looks like he got a taste of already, are his brother inmates who will take turns taking the Big Man down. The old "crabs in a barrel" mentality.
  4. Long ago I heard Arafat preaching the economy of scale of their genocide; this was direct from his mouth on a television interview: we blow up a school bus and kill 40 Jewish children today -- twenty years on each of those would be an adult and producing at least 2 more Jews, so in affect we are killing 120 of them. This was in the 1960s or '70s. After hearing such logic I decided anything goes in combating this kind of thinking and its actions. BY ANYONE.
  5. He hires all these sex-professionals and he's still flogging his own mule? And to think how rich this guy was, he could have bought his own island. Instead he had to play out the badazz pimp thing. Lock him up and he'll find Jesus (he's Catholic).
  6. Your kids will have to start their own fights.
  7. My German gf long ago tried to teach me German language, and in the lessons was a little poem for basic learning. It was something about geese being stolen, she said she remembers it from her own school days. I'm wondering if that was the inspiration this piece of news. Lots of Germans in that part of the US, y'know.
  8. Ok, that's it, I'm convinced. There is no way I'm going to vote for Willy Brown in November.
  9. Note to the rest of the world: Don't be afraid of all the guns in the US, the people who have them are obviously incapable of shooting straight.
  10. As a native of NYC, I can tell you that area is most definitely the creepiest part of the five boroughs. Houses on stilts over the water, we used to call it The Boondocks (from the pop song of the 1960s). I left the place in the early 1970s and I know at least three airliners filled with passengers crashed into that bay in my youth, the bodies and wreckage never completely recovered, and there have probably been other crashes since then. For people who practice voodoo they've found a perfect spot.
  11. Two weeks ago this ago this got a lot of attention in political circles: James Carville Names 'Only Way' Republicans Can Get Their 'Party Back' In November I like Carville and his whole style of political commentary but I don't always agree with him. I disagree here because the 1964 presidential race was tainted by the JFK assassination, and the following 1968 race was colored by the incumbent dropping out and the assassination of the front-runner, which left the Dems in a mess. 1976 was about the Nixon skullduggery. Maybe some GOP members are taking this to heart -- after all, this is the guy who got Bill Clinton elected in 1992. They know they've already lost this year, but looking ahead to 2027 (when the 2028 race begins) they are probably already planning how they can beat her then. So yeah, the thinking in that camp might be "let's elect somebody we know we can beat next time around."
  12. Impressive, as Morgan has kept a lip-lock on the orange hindquarters up until now. Both of them have done well as trash TV celebrities. After DT loses again, he should take up the deal a network offers him to get his old show back, story is NBC offered him $25 million in 2021. The two of them would be a great Krusty the Clown and Sideshow Bob team.
  13. I believe that the position, to quote Chris Rock, was that of House N****. As former RNC chair Michael Steele put it "See? We have one of those too." He knows what he's talking about, he used to be the "one of those."
  14. Hey, maybe she'll write a song about him! In metaphor, of course. Or maybe a lament, for a poor Eastern European girl whose dream is to marry a rich American, who, eventually, and unfortunately, does.
  15. DT's real problem is that not all of the US voters swallow his ridiculous banter. But think of it this way: if not for all the crazy stuff he says and the lies that cannot be backed up he would probably be a much more successful candidate. Somewhere in the future, like 2028 or 2032, a candidate that appeals to the same pro-fascist voters without all of DT's reality TV shtick and his fetish for "strong men" foreign leaders just might bring down the US gov't as we know it. Not a pretty picture. If you are not MAGA or GOP don't be too enthusiastic about Liz Cheney, I sense she's putting her hopes in a GOP renaissance. With herself as the standard bearer. Pretty obvious she has her eye on the Oval IMO. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/sep/15/liz-cheney-ginni-thomas-january-6-investigation About a week before the debate there was some discussion in media circles (non-Fox nor OAN et al) about airing things that are known to be untrue, that would make them complicit in spreading lies. I would think it was these discussions that made the moderators do a fact check.
  16. The right-wing is busy doing things to eliminate voters from the rolls, and the Dems are out there encouraging people to register. This is the real race at the moment: the GOP knows it ain't gonna win unless they do the contentious stuff he blames the Dems of doing. And if he doesn't win it's on to Act II, Stop the Steal 2024. So yeah, Harris could get the vote. Let's see how DT's friends on the religious (Christian) right, like that guy who stuffs Thomas's pockets, come through for him. The election is just the half of it. Bold words, Bill. Now tell us a pot joke.
  17. This is kind of like visiting an insane asylum and one of the patients tells you "watch out for the guy in the next room, he's crazy!"
  18. So damned stupid they didn't know why the Russians were favoring them with such gifts. DEFINITELY dumb enough to be a loyal MAGA follower. I had a buddy, a real BS artist whose go-to excuse was "I didn't know!" (the rest of the time he was an arrogant know-it-all even though he was not very bright).
  19. Actually MTG has been relatively quiet since Jasmine Crockett slapped her down. Watch the responses on Raskin's face. Say what now? For those who don't get it, oversized fake eyelashes are all the rage with the young ladies in the U.S. these days. You might think MTG would get along with Boebert, but no, they fight like dogs. They were competing for whom gets to file impeachment against Biden, what happened there, girls?
  20. All the best people? Does this guy think the world is a Saturday Night Live skit? Gabbard couldn't handle Bill Maher when she was on his show a few months ago. He showed her up for the buffoon she is. S. Miller is a very much a Hitler admirer. He is to Jewish people what Clarence Thomas is to Black people. Gaetz is a joke. And a punch line.
  21. Kara Swisher said the same thing about him, that was maybe a year ago. I'm tired of seeing that smiling chimpanzee face every time I read a news page.
  22. The way DT keeps bringing up russiarussiarussia is because he's trying to overplay it into oblivion: "there they go again, russiarussiarussia when we all know it never happened, and whoever says otherwise their mother is a cat-eating immigrant..." and so on. "Guilty as sin" as the expression goes. He even brought it up in the debate yesterday. There is a lot there, before he got into politics him and the sons were doing money laundering for the Russian oligarchs, and I am still waiting for some action to be taken there, or perhaps the clock has run out.
  23. But wouldn't making up fake news be an expression of free speech? This fellow is quite adept at labeling true things as lies, so yes, he is using his free speech to tell lies, and he wants that to be a protected right. But maybe he's lying when he says that. His speech is cheap.
  24. He crossed the bounds of sanity in his first few minutes, but when he got to the part about immigrants eating cats he became certifiable. Barking mad.
