  1. You liberals don't generally have your own clearly thought out views on matters. All you do is recite whatever you have been told is the correct point of view from your professors and the talking heads on CNN and MSNBC. 
      And that is why you resort to name calling, acusations, whatever it takes to try to intimidate the other side into shutting their mouths. It's a disingenuous way to win an argument. What are you so afraid of? if you have it all figured out why not just have a calm discussion? Express your point of view and allow others to do the same. Dazzle us.
      You want conservatives to just shut up. And to an extent that works, there are basically none commenting on this board for example. But that doesn't mean those people cease to exist. You think there are not a million conservatives on Surly? a sports site in Texas? Probably most of the folks on this board are consevative. They still exist, they just choose not to come here and engage with you for obvious reasons. Congratulations on making them shut up. 
      But you are not convincing them of anything, you are not intimidating them, and you are not keeping them from voting. I really don't see the point.
    Damn it! You caught us again.

  2. Well boys, it turns out the laptop is real. I realize you liberals are generally dishonest and hypocritical, and will proudly boast that you don't care about any of this, but for that small fraction of you with honesty, self-awarness and some knowledge of history this should be very concerning. And it puts a few questions to rest.
    (1) Is the president's son a drug abusing, whore monger, living off of his father's political position? Why, yes he is.
    (2) Is the media completely corrupt and essentially just a propaganda arm of the Democratic party? Apparently.
    (3) Has Joe Biden, Hunter biden, and Joe's brother (Basically the whole family) made careers out of influence peddling? Looks like it.
    (4) Did about 50 current and former intelligence figures knowingly lie and claim the laptop was "Russian Disinformation" to help defeat Trump? Yes, probably most of them knew it was real, Hunter never denied that any of it, some media outletts reported it accuratly
    (5) Did corporate and social media platforms intentionally black out the story to help defeat Trump? Yes
    The election was so close, especially in a handfull of swing states that this likely changed the election outcome. The fact that most liberals I speak with acknoledge this is all true but claim to not care is simply frightning. This is way bigger than Donald Trump. I personally believe that Trump is a baffoon, but we cannot have a functioning democracy without the media being at least somewhat impartial.
    Well shit. You caught us.

  3. I'd pay good money to watch Big John Fetterman beat Steve Bannon to death with Roger Stone. 
    I can get on board with this. Just to clarify. Fetterman is swinging Roger Stone like a bat to strike Steve Bannon dead?

  4. If the President does something, it’s not illegal.  So, therefore, if President Biden arrested Donald Trump and fed him to sharks with laser beams attached to their heads in his secret volcano lair under the pedophile pizza parlor, then by law nobody can complain.
    Get this man the Nobel Peace Prize!
  5. His lawyer pushed that yesterday basically. If he has the docs they can’t be classified because he can unilaterally declassify them by thought alone, there is no “ceremony” (her words) necessary for him to follow. If he looks at them and says they aren’t classified, that’s it. It’s absurd, but with this SCOTUS, it will probably work. 
    I mean his base will buy this excuse, but in the real world that is not how it plays out when it comes to declassifying information.
  6. Secret and top secret are v v different things.  I had secret as a summer intern at Raytheon.  My dad had TS and bureau dudes would show up at all my neighbors houses to question them about if the see us doing anything weird.  
    I agree. I had TS as a M/S. FBI interviewed teachers, friends and family.

    My point is, any Federal Agent is going to have clearance. They may not have "need to know" but it won't impede them from doing their job.

  7. I'm not sure they all have them, but there are certain assignments, terrorism and national security/espionage details, that may require them.
    I'm fairly certain that a "national security task force" or some such was involved in this and probably supplied the agents who looked at documents.
    Pure speculation, but I'm 99.99999999999% positive you can't be any Federal Agent and not have Secret/Top Secret clearance.

    Hell, I had it as a Midshipmen back at the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy.
  8. This. Good knives and a learned set of skills are the most important aspect of cooking.
    Yes this is true. However, the thread is kitchen shortcuts. Give me a tub of HEB pre-peeled garlic and a microplane and I'm set
