2022 will be. But never underestimate the media in conjunction with the DNC to label whatever Republican candidate is nominated as the next Hitler. They've done it repeatedly since Bush. Bush was Hitler. McCain was Hitler. Romney was Hitler. And Trump was Hitler. The American people elected a President who actually withheld foreign aide from Ukraine until they fired the prosecutor investigating his crack head son - after Trump was impeached for the act Joe Biden actually did. NY Democrats have already ended their impeachment, but Democrats impeached Trump a month after he was out of office. These aren't rational people attempting to remain consistent and logical. Look what the media and Democrats did weaponizing and exaggerating the dangers of COVID. The same amount of people have "died from COVID" under Biden with the vaccine as died under Trump without the vaccine, yet what does the narrative coming from Democratic politicians and the media look like today compared to November 1, 2020? They'll do anything they can to build a narrative that only they can save you and if you don't support them, you're a bad person and a bigot.
There's so much in here that just isn't true...I can't believe people find you a credible poster here...
Let's just start with the claim that Biden is withholding money from Ukraine to protect his son:
https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2 … aine-help/
You've once again engaged in a discussion dishonestly. Is it really 'free speech' if you knowingly lie on purpose?
Mitch, if you’re going to link politifact articles and call me names, at least do us the courtesy of not embarrassing yourself manufacturing what I said so it looks like you have a clue. Reconcile your article to what I said. I’ll help you. Joe Biden withheld aide from Ukraine until they did something he wanted. That something he wanted was firing a prosecutor. That prosecutor, among many many things, investigated why Hunter Biden was on a Ukraine gas company’s board being paid millions when he had no experience in the industry. I don’t need you linking a politifact article that refutes something I didn’t say. But I humbly ask you use the same scrutiny Politico and other entities use to excuse Biden’s behavior, as you do trying to supplant motive and intent behind Trump’s phone call.
Take a break dude. You’re not offering anything original or your own. You’re grossly misinformed on nearly every major issue, lack the capability of forming a coherent idea, and lash out with toddler like anger when the cognitive dissonance overwhelms you. I read the same CNN and Huffington Post articles that your media feed is narrowed to.
You’re not normal. Normal people don’t worry about a state trooper shooting their infant. They worry about the 100 people that were shot on their doorsteps this weekend by black gang members. They don’t post on a forum to defend the talking points of far left outrage machines.
You’ll keep posting, yawn and yuck it up. Continue to cry foul when you’re called on it and refuse to change your behavior.
This conversation is much better without you, and I have a hunch you’re a week or two away from joining buzz. Please either grow up and quit making shit personal, or stay on topic and provide original, thought out posts.
And no, Mitch. Pointing out the absurdity of the things you post (like being worried a cop will kill your infant in cold blood cause he’s black) isn’t the same as you mocking my military service and laughing at whatever injuries I sustained.
Be better. For once put in the effort to validate the opinions you hold rather than yucking it up with your perceived mental and moral superiority.

Isn’t Biden damned either way? He’s absolutely responsible for what happens after his pullout. But we’re not at Obama pulling out of Iraq and calling ISIS the JV team yet. In 2008, Democrats mocked McCain for saying we’d need 100 year residual force to maintain the gains made during the war. The same is true in Afghanistan. If you thought the US pulling out would result in anything but the same power vacuum immediately filled by jihadis like in Libya and Iraq, you weren’t paying attention.
How many American lives are worth upholding an Afganhi government Afganhi’s aren’t willing to defend? South Vietnam anyone? The question is does Biden sit back and crack jokes as the Taliban gains real power capable of wielding it at the US. We have an open border where 50k illegals are “caught” every day. How many aren’t caught? And if the Biden administration is willing to drop off Covid positive illegals in a random American city, how hard is it for the next Bin Laden to send loyal followers through the 100s of thousands?

You still believe in space James? You should come over to the other side, much more fun.
Can you please elaborate on the premise beneath your question?

Just read this:
"The #Taliban not only seized appr. a hundred US humvees and (MaxxPro) MRAPs at Kunduz airport, but also several US ScanEagle drones.
Billions of US tax payer $ going to Islamist extremists, thanks to the administration's hasty withdrawal without a peace deal or follow up mission. "They also now have more Blackhawk helicopters than 160 other nations.

I think all the dead old people was worse, imo. The defense CNN is giving for its own coverage is really embarrassing.
It looks like progressives are going to kill the infrastructure deal in the house. This is a bill Biden really, really needs right now.
Apple plans to scan pictures on Apple devices for child porn... Absolutely nothing bad will come from that *it's going to be a disaster* It amazes me they'll protect a known terrorist privacy by not allowing the FBI to open his phone, but white on the privacy of law-abiding citizens. People have been arrested for taking funny naked pictures of their kids. People have been arrested for having pictures of girls who look underage but arent. And teenagers are well known to take and share naked pictures. Maybe Apple should stay out of law enforcement?
Biden’s DoJ already said they found no fault with the nursing home deaths in NY, PA, and MI. Hell, Biden appointed PA’s Secretary of health who removed her mother from a nursing home before ordering COVID patients back into them, as the under Secretary of health for the feds. Media and Democrats don’t want anyone kicking the tires on this.
I’ve had an iPhone since the iPhone 3G in 2008. I supported Apple when they refused to give the FBI access to a jihadist’s cellphone after a mass shooting. Privacy is incredibly important. But if they implement this new software, I’m swapping to an android. They can scan their cloud servers all day long, but scanning my phone for images they deem naughty, no thanks. NSA already has numerous exploits to gain access. We don’t need Apple creating another back door to exploit security on our phones. Supporting privacy means supporting it even if the bad guy is a pedo or mass shooter.

So Cuomo….
I wasn’t in the room, so I have no idea what really happened. The allegations paint a grabby guy who liked to chase tail much like the media narrative around Trump’s “grab them by the pussy” comment. If Cuomo did these things, why the drawn out process? This came to the forefront in March, right? He denied the allegations, and supported an investigation by his AG. If he knew this shit was out there, why let his AG do the investigation?
If he didn’t do these things, why are these women alleging he did? This deserves attention because it’s a big moment for reconciling what society tolerates as acceptable behavior and those who allege wrongness. If Cuomo was guilty, and all these advocacy group leaders who profess to represent the MeToo movement were in cahoots to help Cuomo spin a story, what credibility do they have? If he’s innocent, we need to hold those accountable who spin horrid lies for potential fame. Either way, some form of truth needs to be investigated.
But I can’t say I feel sorry for Fredo making CNN look like the partisan doublespeaking chodes they truly are.
#538 Re: Guns N' Roses » When do we hear Hardskool? » 248 weeks ago
Are we buying in to the album actually being mostly Chinese Session tracks?
That's my wager. I'm hoping some VR stuff (especially the early shit they did with Izzy before Scott joined) or some 90s vault stuff (Hardskool) are sprinkled in since a lot of the tracks Axl did with NuGuns wouldn't resonate with the image and sound they're going for now. I say that as Absurd was just released, so what the fuck do I know, but the industrial type shit just doesn't vibe with me.
#539 Re: Guns N' Roses » When do we hear Hardskool? » 248 weeks ago
Surprise release isn't possible if they're going to support physical media releases. Not only would it leak through supply chain folks at the various big box stores, if that was somehow managed, the mom and pop stores never follow official release days. They sell it as soon as they get it. I got Contraband 3 days before its official release cause the record store at my college town had it out on display as I walked by.

Man, I spent every summer in the early 90s babysitting my sister during the summer for $30 a week. I'd save all that money and blow it on Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat when we went on vacation. I'm almost 40, so about 10 years younger than most of you, so my memory of arcade life was at the end of its dominance and what little pacman stuff I can recall from the mid 80s. In 95 when the Saturn, N64 and Playstation launched, there wasn't the big dramatic swing you had from arcade versions to home versions. That gap only got smaller in the years to come and by 2000 there was one arcade left in my mall and it had a handful of games that weren't Chuck E. Cheese types. I spent every break at Babbage's (now Gamestop)mastering that Star Wars pod racing game.
