Posts from Rice in thread „Is Biden screwing things up?“

    Gotta, wanna and gonna are all the rage nowadays! Much like would of and could of.

    :ban:

    “Gotta” is slang (and reprehensible. I apologize!).


    Chutzpah is a Yiddish word meaning

    “the confidence or courage that allows someone to do or say things that may seem shocking to others. In other words, it's having the “gall” or “nerve”.   It is derived from the Hebrew word “ḥuṣpāh,”meaning audacity, cheek, nerve.  


    “Would of” and “could of” are merely illiterate misunderstandings of “would have” and “could have.”

    He took the $464,400 grant that was supposed to allow restaurants TO PAY THEIR EMPLOYEES AND KEEP THEM IN WORK, bit the hand that fed him, and probably retired to Florida.


    Hypocrite. Gotta admire his chutzpah. Until he folded and admitted the truth.

    May I ask a question, daniel ? Were you OK with the secret deal the former president made with his Taliban friends, blocking the Afghan leaders from the talks, and agreeing to have all our people out by last May 31?


    If not, I understand your anger at all of them. But if you did approve, then why blame Biden for keeping the agreement his predecessor had made, plus 3 months?


    Joking aside...we all know they're just figureheads. The 'real' decisions are made by others.

    I’m wondering what in the world kind of inside information and political insights you have, that have led you to such a preposterous conclusion? I spend hours every day trying to educate myself on government matters, and I simply can’t agree.

    Trump is 3 years younger than Biden, UK Man . I assume this means you’re against his being allowed to run in 2024? (I also am against that, but on the basis of mental as well as ethical unfitness and crimes committed against the American people, not age.)

    It's hard to believe that this moron was once president.

    … and that there are millions who still don’t get it. And would like to give him another go at giving Intelligence Reports to Russia, undermining US institutions, and promoting hatred, among other parts of his agenda.

    An age cap would be fine with me. Right after a competence test and a dementia exam (You know, “Is that a giraffe or an elephant?” and a repetition of 5 words, in order. Something really difficult like that.). And demonstration of a basic knowledge of American history, along with familiarity with the constitution.


    THEN the age cap.


    After the 4- year threat we have had to our democracy itself, the first insurrection against our government, and the ongoing legacy of The Big Lie, UK Man , I can live with a president whose only flaws you have found are aging legs and eyes.

    I apologize for having misunderstood, daniel . I thought that, as you said, you genuinely did not see the connection between vaccination and the spread of the coronavirus. So I spent a rather large part of my Friday evening trying to help.


    Now it is clear that your frustration is broader than the scientific question you raised. On this thread which is devoted to the virus, I cannot help you overcome your political frustration.
