  1. Incorrect on both counts.
  2. Worst. Hype. Man. Ever.
  3. Yeah, all 170 of them nationwide.
  4. That shrimp knows a lot more about college football.
  5. At this point it seems fair to ask if the president has been checked for Multiple Personality Disorder.
  6. I have played poker with that guy at The Lodge in Round Rock.
  7. I brought cocktail sauce.
  8. So a Donald Trump venture did not accomplish as much as he claimed it did. Ya don't say. No shit.
  9. Has he actually gone anywhere, though? Has he lost his marbles if he never had them? Only try to realize the truth...... There are no marbles..............
  10. Re: Aspinall, all Jon had to say was, look, he's 20 pounds bigger than me, and he's still in his prime. If we were the same age and we'd peaked at the same time, I think I would've taken him like I took everybody else. But I just don't love fighting like I used to. And I'm aging. So I'm gonna step aside and let him have his time. Everyone would have respected that a lot more than what he did. As for the rest: scumbag gonna scumbag.
  11. Exactly. They very much do not want a dead American soldier. What they want is to be able to tell their people that we hit them with 12 bombs, so they launched 12 missiles in a proportionate response. No one in Iran can verify the effectiveness of either strike, so it sounds good to them. This can be the end of it if we keep our war boner in our pants.
  12. If that is it from Iran, man do they not want this to escalate. That would be a good thing, if President Tiny Hands can understand things at all and let it go.
  13. Iran says it has begun an operation against US base in Qatar, per CNN.
  14. Oh, 100% agree. I am very afraid that we've managed to set their nuclear program back zero days. Maybe a year or two at best. The GOP are high-fiving about how they just made the world safer. But maybe it's the opposite. Time will tell.
  15. I'll take this one. Because Iran is a terrorist sponsor with a stated aim of destroying a sovereign nation. They should never, ever be allowed to have a nuclear weapon. And the fact that they have gotten this close is 100% at Donald Trump's feet. He had to overturn as much of what Obama did as possible. Didn't matter what or why. So here we are, on the brink. And of course the GOP is trying to give him credit for (maybe) cleaning up the shitpiles that he deposited all over the living room carpet. I can't even wrap my mind around what an absolute clusterfuck this country has become in just five months.
  16. Our 5th Fleet is right there. If Iran tries to blockade the strait, that will end badly. But the concern, per a military guy on the all-knowing TV, is that they can put mines in the strait and cause something awful that way, or at least render it unusable for some period of time.
  17. Yeah, I don't see any way they can nuke the US, even if they already have weapons-grade enrichment. But I worry that we could see something simple and effective any day now. Not a 9/11, but an OKC...
  18. Or prices of literally everything that has to be shipped.
  19. Whether or not that conversation happened, I have no problem believing that there are Iranian-funded cells in the US right now. I'm afraid we're gonna see something go boom domestically within days.
  20. You know Trump was walking around the White House all puffed up for hours after he thought up MIGA. Simple fuck.
  21. Oh, 100%. Trump is a symptom. Nothing ends with him. I still want to see him in a casket, though.
  22. Why won't you just die?
  23. Yeah, I don't know that the military can even tell with satellites how successful that strike was. They can estimate, but I don't think they can know how much damage they really did. And they also can't know how much Iran moved, or, crucially, how much infrastructure Iran has elsewhere that we never knew about in the first place. I'm afraid there is a very real chance that this strike only set them back a matter of months, or maybe not at all.
