It's putting a band aid on an amputation.

There are many's ideas on fossil fuel dependence.  I’ve just been reading for weeks if not months that there should be an increase in US Oil.  Domestic oil companies are not going to produce more so this is an alternative. I’d hope the posters here who have requested more oil would be supportive of this.

Unfortunately, one of the consequences to higher inflation is higher interest rates.

Many staffers quit during administrations, hope you knew that.

So should we not use our oil reserves? Asking for a friend.

Wondering if Westside is still on the fence

I would have the same suspicion if a crazy judge made a ruling based on an aberration that shows up one in one hundred thousand times should be overturned relatively quickly. (Think of a Title Nine ruling that would demand equal scholarships for quadriplegics in college sports) Heres a question. With this hypothetical dual gender child then be able to self reproduce like a planaria worm? If so maybe the Democrats will have a new voting Bloc.

And how many transgender athletes are competing in college sports?  Again not arguing that the discussion shouldn’t take place but are we in a Casey Martin situation here?

@VaporTrail what are your thoughts on the thousands of previously approved drilling permits that the oil companies aren't using?

 

Not to get all socialist here, but maybe something as critical to our economy, and the world's, should be entirely left up to CEOs looking to get the most benefit for their shareholders.

Not to mention the Keystone Pipeline exists and is operational.  Phases 1-3 are going it was Phase 4, Keystone XL, that was cancelled.  Phases 1-3 have the capacity to transport 1.3 million barrels per day.

I did see that someone had given a previous answer when I posted this. But yes it really can be as simple as people make it out to be; biological males should not compete against biological females. You brought in, facetiously I assume, people who were born with both sets. That's like point zero zero two of people.

Furthermore I think having that big goon swim against girls half his size is for no other reason than to shock and offend. You guys need to lay off that kind of thing. I can think of some fuckedupshit the right would consider doing but none as ludicrous as this.

I have a sneaking suspicion that little Sally who was born little Timmy and transitioned at 12 will probably take that decision to court and I’m guessing will make a very strong argument.

So you are going on record with the notion that Leah Thomas has both sets of genitalia from birth?

And you call me a contrarian?

That’s not at all what I’m saying.  When this is discussed and rules are put in place they need to be mindful of the eventual lawsuits and ramifications.  This can’t be a simple as of you were once male you can’t compete in female athletics because that will reach past the intended target group. This will be a difficult rule to make as people are transitioning at younger ages.  I’ve never weighed in on who, what, when, where or how. I just think knee jerk reactions to a particular situation never prove reasonable.

This isn't a hermaphrodite. This is a man. 

Agreed there is a large difference. Just pointing out you can’t simply say if you were born with a prick you can’t play female sports.

Frankly I don't see a logical or reasoned other side here.

So child is born with both sex organs and parents decide to choose female. Is she banned from female sports!

its sorta funny how lots on here talked bout big ben but now condone the browns getting watson! I hate ben i hate the steelers but ben looks like a saint compared to watson!

If you’ve been here long enough, you realize Browns fans will accept anything if the player is on the team and performing.

The histrionics by some of these Browns "fans" over the Watson signing is a head-scratcher to me.

This is America, where you are innocent until proven guilty. Watson was brought before a grand jury where his accusers testified in open court, and the grand jury did not find enough evidence to bring any charges against him. Zip. Zero. Nada. I hardly believe that the Browns FO and other team's FO's would have pursued Watson if any of those accusations had teeth.

And it's kind of interesting how all these accusations came out of the woodwork shortly after Watson demanded a trade from the Texans last year. Interesting timing.

Deshaun Watson fires back at 22 accusers with ‘money grab’ claim

 

In a  court of law, yes.  Personally I have a higher standard for moral issues as do most people.

Seeing some Browns fans not liking this deal.....always room on the KC bandwagon!  

I’m leaning more towards the Lions. Another classic franchise.

Will the Browns even do an introduction presser?  If they do, questions will have to be pre-selected. SMH. F’n face of the franchise talking rub & tug and suspension before he takes a snap. This is soooo Browns

Don’t like it personally or organizationally. Like many Browns fans there is a hard decision to be made concerning fandom.

Bingo.  I like the prove it one year deal too. And Actually show us 10-12M a year production and play (yeah I said it)

How many times has Dr. Fauci medical professional been caught telling a lie? You friggin' goober with a grade school diplomas thinking they can provide insight.

 

That is one man who has been a puppet for two administrations.  The medical community has been as consistent as the data has allowed and that is indisputable.  
 

My college diploma sits on my office desk.  With that being said, I don’t perform my own dentistry or medical exams.  I leave that to the professionals and if I believe I’m getting bad advice I seek another opinion.  I trust the consensus of those who have more knowledge of disciplines than a Facebook group made up of political conspiracy nuts.

Why wouldn’t they.  We are the largest oil producing country in the world and the domestic oil industry will continue to get even wealthier.  We import between 3-10 percent on our energy from Russia.  This is lip service once again that won’t truly move the needle on this crisis.

The idea is, just blindly trust what you are told don't check it out just follow orders!

Blindly trust? So your internet research is the same as a medical professional that has dedicated their life to the discipline, rhetorical.  That is one thing that really makes me chuckle, friggin’ goobers with high school diplomas thinking they can provide insight a medical doctor doesn’t know.  

I’m not surprised by crazy existing here. The issue for me is crazy is now in the light and tolerated by those who shouldn’t.  You brush crazy off as innocuous for too long and this is what you get.
