I have to believe he was just that greedy and committed to the grift. Which ya know, a swimming pool is a helluva thing to die for, but at least it's a rational gamble with your life.

Unlike just believing God won't let you get sick, even if you believe in God, he demonstrably lets people who believe in Him get sick and die all the time!

The literal Republican presidential candidate from less than a decade ago is in the mob.

it makes me wonder if McNaughton featured Romney in any paintings in 2012, and if so whether he was heralded as our Christian savior or whatever, or if it was a Ben Garrison style "Romney and Obama are the two heads of the ZOG snake" thing

E:


I think that's Romney kneeling behind the resolute desk with money

He's a white man with money so that seems good, but he's kneeling next to Holder so it's probably depicting him paying homage to a black president which is bad. There's also a CFL bulb on the desk and a Christmas tree with an Islamic crescent in place of a star so it looks like Romney was Always Bad

Oh and I guess that's Soros rolling up with a briefcase of Jew money, so yeah everyone in that crowd is supposed to be a bad guy.

So where does the Biden campaign produce voter confidence and enthusiasm for their candidate? There isn't any. And this will affect the ballot all the way to to bottom. Meanwhile the other side is more enthusiastic and motivated than ever before. The pandemic is DESTROYING Democrats all over. All of these Democrat governors passing Stay-at-home orders will find themselves out of office very quickly, either by voting, resigning or outright removal.

What? Trump is down to -13 in a RASMUSSEN poll and somehow Cuomo and Newsome are somehow going to be out of office instead of future presidential hopefuls that they are now destined to be?

you can literally campaign for Republicans, and even run a presidential campaign around "hey the president is doing a great job, no need to change anything jack" and Republicans will still hate you

To be fair, he's all the way in the back. He's just sorta awkwardly showing up to the mob party to keep up appearances.

You pointed out that it takes 1/5 of the Members to pass a motion for a floor vote

1/5 of the quorum, not 1/5 of all members. Republicans could have formed a quorum on their own, or with so few Dems around that they didn't constitute 1/5 of the quorum. Indifference or disorganization are likely in that scenario.

quote:

1 and 2 are effectively the same, there's no real moral distinction between voting for a bad bill because you want it to happen versus voting for a bad bill randomly because you don't care. Disorganization is ruled out because the bill passed the senate with unanimous consent.

None of this bizarre quibbling changes the facts, you're just playing games, the same kind of deliberate obtuseness Republicans resort to defend poo poo Trump says and does "oh but you can't look into his heart so who can say if his intentions were good or bad". Who cares, I care about results.

Process absolutely matters and, when it involves a large group of people, is never as opaque as a person's thoughts. Whether it was an issue of leadership or requires replacing members, it's good to know what the problem is rather than deciding it is what you want it to be before you try to fix it, and different problems can produce the same outcome, so post-hoc rationalization isn't useful, even if you're probably right.

The Senate might have had different issues and certainly had different leadership, so lumping it in with the House doesn't seem terribly helpful. IIRC Reid was Minority Leader at the time and he was at least more effective than Schumer, so it does seem likely that he was OK with the bill rather than not caring or being unaware of what was going on, for example.

You still haven't done anything but assert you're right. Someone somewhere has probably written about this with little things like supporting facts and interview sources.

This has always been true



capitalism is inherently opposed to democracy, because democracy is based on the principle of one man one vote, and capitalism is based on the principle of he who has the gold makes the rules

liberals support a bourgeois democracy where only the right people get to vote, and as long as the system suppresses the votes of the economic underclass and the corporate media manufactures consent from the poor that manage to vote, liberals will pay lip service to the idea of democracy.

but the instant that the poor actually vote in a way that threatens the propertied class, they start talking about the dangers of populism and demagoguery, and well maybe an oligarchy of wealthy elites need to take control, for the good of the confused benighted commoners of course.

I completely missed the cake. There is always more, and its always worse.

And certainly not. There are no homosexuals in our glorious military. For instance, I for one cannot imagine anything gay or gay-like going on in those submarine crews. Which are still male-only... in tight quarters under the surface for months at a time... with nothing but their own sweaty bodies for company...
