  1. It says something good about her that she gets attacked from the right and the left. Right wingers stereotype her as she's a democratic from San Francisco. They don't understand San Francisco history. Worth noting that Dianne Feinstein was chosen as queen of the Junior Grand National livestock competition at the San Francisco Cow Palace.
  2. That's irrational. She was already very rich. No need to continue to serve because of money.
  3. She wasn't in charge of term limits. California kept sending her back is all.
  4. She was a centrist actually. I loved her and had the opportunity to vote for her multiple times while she was supervisor, mayor, and Senator. She was the rare kind of politician that had the potential to unite. She should have been a president. Super intelligent lady and she projected as a real leader. Don't judge her historically long career based on her sad decline in recent months. That's the human condition.
  5. San Francisco native, she was California's longest serving Senator. She was 90. Despite recent controversy that she should have resigned because of dramatically declining health her long career was notable. Although a democrat she was a political centrist. In previous decades her name often came up as potentially the first woman (and Jewish) president. Probably her most iconic moment as Mayor to be of San Francisco replacing the assassinated George Moscone.
  6. Excuse me, but speed talking plastic Vivek doesn't impress me as a caring human being, for children, or anyone else.
  7. Vivek is such a total sleazeball. But he has no chance to be nominated.
  8. I suppose recreational cannabis is competition to the liquor elite here. Can't be having competition, can we?
  9. An interesting premise (a love affair between the Latino-ish son of a U.S. woman president and a comely British prince) gets played as a light engaging family friendly soap opera. It's no must see but it's a fun see.
  10. Yes. The way he accelerated Covid vaccine production and rollout. His base hates that, but it was very good.
  11. Yeah. White people's problems. Looking for things to be offended about. They're not shooting us. That's a good day.
  12. He made a hard decision about what is best for all the people. That's what good presidents do. It's impossible to please everyone on every issue and action.
  13. Will he be joining the picketing workers? I doubt he would, but if he does, even a broken clock is right twice a day. All I've heard from him so far about the strike is cynical fear mongering against the adoption of electric vehicles.
  14. Of course it doesn't. I don't think we need Brit-centric usage police on this forum. I'm not saying you should use Americanisms. Just that sometimes I choose to.
  15. It's an origin theory. I give it credence as Yiddish has had a massive influence on American English.
  16. I get it. You're against Biden. I find your attacks cheap and weak.
  17. If you literally translate "where the sun don't shine" to Thai, do Thais understand that we're talking about buttholes?
