  1. There would have been only one way to determine that: call their "bluff." The Bush administration obviously didn't think it was a bluff. Did it ever occur to you that the reason that Mueller said that was because that they weren't completely convinced of his involvement?
  2. The Taliban offered Bin Laden to the US via a third party on condition that the US provide evidence that he had some sort of complicity in 9/11. They never did. In fact, they explicitly refused the offer. Furthermore, by April of 2002, fully 7 months after the attacks and 6 months after the invasion, Robert Mueller was on record in the press saying "investigators believe the idea of the Sept. 11 attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon came from al Qaeda leaders in Afghanistan, the actual plotting was done in Germany, and the financing came through the United Arab Emirates from sources in Afghanistan…We think the masterminds of it were in Afghanistan, high in the al Qaeda leadership." "Investigators believe"..."We think" That's not a justification.
  3. Seems like a political version of this loser
  4. You know better than to use “trumper” and “honored” in the same sentence.
  5. Thought the bump would be concerning a different matter, but for those not in the know, Bobby Eaton passed away last week. His 63rd birthday would have been this coming Saturday.
  6. Which isn’t surprising when you consider that this is the same crowd that blindly follows liars that are in positions of imagined authority in their so-called “spiritual” lives. This is the same crowd that blindly follows religious figureheads that claim their faith is justified by the laws of thermodynamics, physics, et al. These are credulous people. They will believe anything that sounds good to them. OAN knows this and they play on this. There’s no fucking way they didn’t already know this asshole was a loser without a shred of credibility on the subject of mathematics. But they trotted him out there anyways because they knew their gullible audience would swallow that shit up, exactly as you describe. Ah yes, the Joan Peters strategy. But they wouldn’t be correct in red states where I’m sure this shit could be used to “prove” that Biden actually won, right?
  7. 30 years ago, they would have been labeled "moderate Republicans." Of course, they can't run on that. They can't run on "they're Pepsi, we're Diet Pepsi," so they have to get all creative in their messaging to make it look like they're different from the Republicans while simultaneously staying at arm's length from the Bernies and AOC's of the world. Right, they care about those things more than Republicans do, but that's like saying "the nicest guy in prison." But again, that's a very hard message to sell, which is why they look all convoluted and confused when they're really not. They just can't come out and say what they actually are. Republicans don't have that problem. They appeal to the absolute worst dregs of society and they're completely open about it, which is why they keep getting people to vote for them, which by definition is voting against their own interests...and even then, they still have to cheat like hell with all this gerrymandering, voting restrictions, coup attempts, et al.
  8. And they’re also giving free healthcare to pot-smoking atheists
  9. You are not helping yourself with these theatrics.
  10. The bigger takeaway should be that if 72% are that pig-ignorant about a basic concept like Arabic numerals, what reason do we have to believe they’re not even profoundly more ignorant regarding issues of social policy?
  11. That diocese shares a lot with a bank. I’m sure it’s just a coincidence
  12. 1990 The bulk fled to the new PCPC on Oak Lawn.
  13. What's really pathetic is that was well known throughout the planet, including the US, well before 2016. To have even considered making this effeminate loser POTUS at that time is like in the late 1990's someone saying "Ted Kaczynski should be US Postmaster General!!!"
  14. I would love to have been the judge in that case just to be able to say: ”The President of the United States isn’t good enough.”
  15. Any updates on the lawsuit? Latest I've seen is dated last October.

    Rats!

    Expect any different? He’s the fucking poster child of the Dunning Kruger effect, which is a characteristic symptom of his pathetically incurable case of narcissism. He’s incapable of admitting to any significant error of his “logic,” which also means he’s incapable of correcting same. He would rather climb up a tree to tell a lie than stand on the ground to tell the truth.
  17. I mean I’ve seen quite a few baseball players strike out before. I’ve seen quite a few hit home runs and start strutting around in celebration of same. But striking out that badly and strutting around as if a home run was hit? That’s an art that only brainless shitheads like Sidney Powell could master. Got a thing for the clap?
  18. Hasn’t changed. And yeah it’s really kid friendly especially the little water park at the end
  19. Will never forget it. I was 8. Had a soccer game that morning (we won 3-1). Dad literally picked me up off the field not even after the ending whistle finished echoing to stuff me into his 1990 silver Cadillac DeVille, took me home to change into UT gear, got back into the car and we whizzed quickly over to the fair (secret pathway). I’m about to attend my 30th consecutive TX-OU game this coming October.
