You don't know me, punk. How can you possibly know what I'm thinking when it comes to voting? I think the post you originally replied to says that I'm open to voting for anyone not named Biden or Trump.
And that's the thing, they bait you into thinking that there can be any kind of civilized discussion here but it doesn't matter how innocent or neutral you post is, they will pick it apart. And then here comes the memes, the insults. Which is why I asked why anyone even bothers with this cesspool.
Oh fuck yourself tough guy. So would you vote for Joe Biden if he were running against Nikki Haley or not?

It's easy to understand the reasoning for a lot of stupid things, that doesn't make them any less stupid. Especially since the reason here is not much more than just "Jesus!"
So you do or don't agree? What is "probably not"?
Exactly what I said. We discussed this enough times that unless you just being hostile for some reason you should understand. As you know I don't call myself a creationist a Fundamentalist or even a Christian. I don't think I live up to the standards out expect a Christian to at least strive for. Then again I don't feel comfortable calling myself at atheist because I just don't know. And while I'm not a pro-lifer I do think there should be some boundaries about abortion.
As for you when you're ready to state that you are an atheist or that you are in any time for any reason at any age abortion guy then it's probably easier for you to make a black and white answer. If you aren't 100% on either of those then I would suppose probably is a valid answer.

Doesn't it seem like the formula or whatever for Sterilite couldn't possibly be so exclusive has to be within the imagination and creative mind of only one man? It seems to me like every invention has multiple people going down the same path in various places? I guess it's possible. An example might be if somebody dies who is written the song but never recorded it or written get down that exact song will never be recovered. Just thought that was an interesting question.
As you were.

So I guess it doesn't really matter whose Ox is being gored here but this guy is being persecuted because he spilled the beans that some people in power didn't want spilled. Does it matter to you guys whether it's the Democrats Republicans or just the Deep State / ruling class that's gotten embarrassed by the stuff he put out?

Oh lord, here i go giving you a response... I'll regret this...
- if you think Biden is some hardcore leftist you're a moron
- can't think of one? Repealing Roe v Wade is pretty fucking conservative. Plenty of attacks on LGBTQ rights too. And no, I'm not talking sports. Or just the MAGA crowd, actual politicians, calling anyone that disagrees with them traitors and other inflammatory language. The right has gotten more right over the years. Unless you're in that forest, it is easy to see. But most of this board is in that forest and I'm not going to get them to see any trees.
- no... I won't. Unlike most of this board I'm not picking my positions based on party politics. I'm picking it based on what I feel is the right answer. Ranked choice voting makes sense. And it isn't a "pet" thing. Many countries do it already. Many countries do democracy better than us, ironically enough.
- when my feet are put to the fire? I have no idea what you're talking about. I voted for Biden to just punt for 4 years and hope things didn't get worse. Infrastructure bill, etc have been great, but still plenty that didn't happen (student loans).
- no one said the third party automatically meant it was better. But a third party naturally breeds more competition, more collaboration. Removing the current system where power is concentrated to just two groups only helps this country long term
Not sure I've heard Trump say anything horrible about the queer community. Nor have i. I'm not a science denier though.
Arrow versus Wade is more democratic than you might think. People in states or communities would be able to make the choice as to whether they want abortion anytime for any reason. Some might not agree with you or me.
I think you're kidding yourself if you believe that other countries do democracy better than us except for the fact that we're not a democracy and were never meant to be.
Marjorie Taylor green and governor Noem are both young. Would you vote for them against Biden ?

Ok? Besides the fact we probably have different definitions of moderate I'm not sure why that matters or why you've repeated it twice now.
Sure, there are certain potential third parties that would resonate with my beliefs more, but in general just adding any third party would be a good move. Everything would naturally adjust to a Left, Middle, and Right party anyway.
MAGA breaks away? They're the new right. Traditional Reps join more conservative Dems. Progressive Dems become the new left.
Same thing probably ultimately happens if the progressive left breaks off first.
Or maybe we can get 4 parties? Even better
And ranked choice voting would be the first step in that happening
Just like you whine about people calling Joe Biden or the Deep state that controls his actions liberals. You can't think of one fucking hardcore right-wing thing that anybody associated with your personal Boogeyman MAGA.
If and when a Conservative candidate gets voted in because of your pet voting method then you will be shitting your pants about that. What can I say. I'm about the only guy on here who has ever said he was okay with a moderate candidate. When your feet are put to the fire the only thing you can say about Joe Biden is that he's not liberal enough for you so there's that.
Third party does not equal good bad or anything else.

You taking an opinion piece on the blaze that constant references harry potter as fact is sad, old man
And if Michelle Obama ran Trump would get destroyed. Just fyi
Well she does check the two major boxes required for the guys that rely on identity politics, might be the trifecta if she is actually gay or trans.

A third party and ranked choice voting make sense
Which means this country will never do it
No Doubt but I don't think it would be the moderate one that would hold your attention. And let's face it Republicans loved Ralph Nader because he drew votes away from the Democrat party. Democrats would probably love to see Nikki Haley as a third party to draw votes away from the Trump camp.

Bob, the Woodpecker isn't voting for any moderates. You can take that to the bank. And regardless of what he might say he loves him some braindead vaccine conspiracy theories.
Kennedy's problem: we are a pretty shallow class of Voters and he talks funny. And that's not even a joke.

Only slightly off topic but do any of you people think that Vegas oddsmakers have absolutely nothing to do with the outcomes of NFL games and the NFL itself doesn't try to promote different matchups than what the people might enjoy seeing? You think that's 100% impossible?

Voters are delivering a poor assessment of President Joe Biden’s job performance. They are also looking back more fondly than before on Donald Trump’s tenure.

I disagree with a lot of this. The "journalists" calling Tucker a "diminished figure" are corporate mouthpieces who will never sniff an interview of this magnitude. The interview with Putin will be more viewed than anything he ever did with Fox News. I don't follow him regularly, but just scrolling through his twitter feed it looks like his show episodes typically get more views than the highest rated shows on Fox. As it turns out, the rest of the media following Fox News' example and aiming for the lowest common denominator isn't really sustainable.
Tucker's not on the same level as Howard Stern/Jon Stewart/Bill O'Reilly when it comes to talent as an interviewer, but he did a decent job. Asked Putin questions that I would think most Americans would want to be asked. I didn't see anything in the interview that I'd consider a dereliction of journalistic duty (something he did regularly on Fox News). I'd love for him to interview Zelensky in the same manner, but I doubt the US State Department will let him do an interview that isn't meant to propagandize their war effort. The Putin interview already has over 50M views. Zelensky would probably love to have his message out to that many people.
Putin's answers weren't anything that he hasn't said in front of a camera the last two years. Lots of realpolitik and a bit of Nazism in Ukraine as a bogeyman. I was happy to see that Carlson pushed him on using that argument as a justification for invasion. I was very surprised that Carlson also spent 10 minutes of the interview arguing with Putin for the release of an American political prisoner. I just can't see a corporate journalist arguing with Putin like Carlson did there. Many of those worthless journalists were calling him a traitor for simply doing the interview, and they wonder why people stopped listening to them.
Not unlike signing Baker Mayfield nobody, none of these second third and fourth string news networks have got the money to pay Carlson what he's getting already because of his Fox contract. That's just the way it is. I would love to see the rumor happen, though I doubt it will, about a conglomerate new News Network owned by Carlson O'Reilly Megyn Kelly and maybe Beck. I think it would be a massive success if it were doable. Fox has already lost a ton of money, look at the second and third rate companies that are advertising now. Too bad Rupert Murdoch and Roger Ailes are out of the loop and the company is in the hands of the two idiot Sons Uday and Cusay. [Sp]

So for liberals, Trump haters or actual Biden supporters: it really is time for the Republican Party, if they care to remain in existence, to rally around Donald Trump. It's also time for Trump to quit acting like an asshole that every opportunity. Blind hatred of trump is probably the worst reason to cast your vote regardless of how you see the country in 5 years.

This flick dropped on Apple+ recently, l watched it last night. It was definitely interesting and had its moments. I consider myself a Scorsese fan and l thought he did a fantastic job. I guess my main gripe is, as the flick went on, l ran outta characters that l actually liked.
Yes they're really weren't any. Which is one of the very intriguing aspects of the movie. Everybody sucked.
