I agree.....you are nothing if not comedy gold.

Thank you.

Real Americans no longer own, operate or represent the majorty,

Categorically untrue, real Americans still own, operate and represent the majority. Unfortunately for a minority of Americans wishing to turn back the clock to a time when straight, White, Christian men controlled the country, the definition of 'real' has been expanded to include ever more Americans.

Honesty plays a part in my voting in that I judge a candidate's sincerity when they speak about the matters that concern me.

But the candidate doesn't matter: only the policies that will be imposed matter.

You don't know that????

And that is why, in part, she is an authoritarian fascist and classical liberal American.

Let's see if you are smart enough to recognize that I prove my point:


Gas prices up 38%


Food prices up 21%


Mortgage rates up 148%


Home insurance up 61%


Car insurance up 118%


Real wages down 2.24%


Drug deaths up 36%


The border isn't.....
8.5 illegals crossed the Southern border
plus 3 million got-aways
for the hightest number of invaders in our history

And she changes the subject. Notice she does not tell you that Inflation is about 2.6%, UE 4.3%, with a strong labor market and increasing wages. Nor does she tell you that XiTrump crashed the economy with their mismanagement of Covid.

I was afraid you weren't smart enough to recognize that I put you in your place again.


I guess that that happens a lot, huh?

"Over the past several decades, the progressive Left has successfully fulfilled Antonio Gramsci’s famed admonition of a “long march through the institutions”. In almost every Western country, its adherents now dominate the education system, media, cultural institutions, and financial behemoths."

I’m surprised there was no mention of Frankfurt school in that link. Unless I missed it.

I'm not sure what your point is. I take into account policies, judgement of the candidate's honest belief in his stated policies, and the ability to see them through as primary considerations. It's not a popularity contest.

The most striking example of agreeing with a candidate's stated belief and judging him not to be trusted occurred in the election of 2000. I recall being set on voting for George W Bush. I also remember him saying during the campaign that, "we must be very careful when it comes to nation building." His action of naming Dick Cheney caused me to distrust his words on nation building. In protest I voted for a non-major party candidate, I believe it might have been Ralph Nader that year. With our intrusions into Afghanistan and Iraq, I consider it the most satisfying vote I ever made.

My point is that all the talk about a candidate is simply misdirection. If you are astute, you recognize what policies you will get with a particular candidate, as in party.

A shady character is not an indicator of what policy will be chosen.

You'd have to be brain-dead not to know what policies each of these candidates would bring.

So, you are brain-dead????

Yep, like a prorgam much better and cheaper than ACA. You are some gullible.

Didn't you just claim not to know what policies the two candidates would bring?


You did, didn't you.



Did you leave the stove on?

Cause you just got burned.
