  1. Perhaps not, but you DO start with the low hanging fruit. And foreign aid qualifies for that in spades. Next, entitlements, Pentagon spending, take time but will yield savings as well.
  2. On another note, the LGB are starting to distance themselves from the "T" in the alphabet soup of victimhood. There is genuine fear that young boys who may be just gay are being told that they are actually girls trapped in a boy's body, and encouraged to 'transition'.
  3. I dunno. I think hooking a fish through the cheek and dragging it around, or catching it in a net and letting it asphyxiate sounds pretty gruesome to be honest. A quick exploding harpoon to the head might be a lot better!
  4. Don't stress about it. They use exploding harpoons, much more efficient than the old style ones. Are you shifting your argument to the acual harvesting procedures and away from a purely anthropomorphic one?
  5. I have tried two of the three. Didn't care for the taste all that much, but did it for the experience.
  6. Big problem is that there is less news and more "analysis". Which usually consists of a panel with one conservative and 4 or 5 flaming liberals, hosted by another liberal. It gets tired real fast. And yeah, Quest was a blast. I also even watched Don Lemon back in the day before he became a political tool. Same with Jake Tapper. Used to be more of a journalist and less a propagandist.
  7. Could "pillow biter" be far behind?
  8. Nah, but the national strategic reserve of maple syrup might have to be tapped soon... (that is a real thing, by the way).
  9. Uh yeah, because they are people and not animals. That is a fairly logical place to draw a line. Your analogy sucks. You are thinking 2 dimensionally. Whales have 3 dimensions to use. Just dive deep and be safe. And whales aren't killed for fun. They are killed for food. Big difference. All the brouhaha around whales is just emotion and misplaced sensitivity.
  10. Yeah? If they are so smart and self-aware, how do they let themselves be caught and eaten by humans?
  11. OK. Sardines better? The point being that it is just food to many people, we don't need to preach or moralize about it for that reason.
  12. Different strokes for different folks. Every culture has taboos about food. Some places, dogs and rats are delicacies. Others, whale meat is a traditional source of nutrition. No difference. As long as the harvest doesn't endanger the particular species, what is the problem?
  13. Bull cookies. Whales are a protein source, nothing more. As long as endangered species aren't taken, no different than fishing for tuna. Anthropomorphizing them is foolish.
  14. Agreed. This isn't the timing to crow about partisan politics. You can love her or hate her, but Pelosi has been an astute political fixture for years.
  15. Keep crying those oh-so-delicous tears of impotent rage. The estrogen and high soy content make them even more delicious.
