Good thing I'm not a lib. Oh and that article you posted kind of re-wrote history. The irony is lost on you.

Redondo's article was about NK starting up their nuclear program again (the word "again" isn't accurate because it is something they never stopped doing under Trump and continue to do so under Biden). The aren't launching missiles right now though? So what is there to do? Trump didn't stop them so why should Biden? To be honest, I agree with Tank that Biden could talk with Kim. Maybe even strike a deal but what is the point? In this highly partisan country, it will be just be slammed and criticized. And then revoked under the next president. Tensions will increase. People will say that NK was never abiding by the deal (and they would probably be right knowing Kim's character). Oh and Redondo,we can still talk about Trump because not doing so isn't providing a full context of history and if there is one thing I know, we don't want to appear as if we are erasing history.

If you can't trust a guy who kills people with anti-aircraft guns and then feeds whatever remains of them to his dogs, who can you trust?

From what I understand, he never stopped his nuclear programs while Trump was in office.

They never stopped working on their nuclear program so this is no surprise. What would you like Biden to do? Go to war?

Never trust anything that bleeds for a week but doesn't die.

I don't remember it that way Jay but I could be wrong. I thought people were questioning his gaffes and mental capabilities long before the election, mainly during the primaries and when it was apparent he was going to be the nominee.

When I saw libs on social media say the world was laughing at us because of Trump, cons said they didn't care what the rest of the world thought. But now they say the rest of the world is laughing at us because of Biden. Which is it, do we care or not?

Robert E Lee was a decent general and the war wouldn't have lasted as long as it did without him but he was a bit overrated. He was too aggressive for his own good (needlessly lost a lot of men he couldn't replace). He definitely gave Grant trouble in 1864-65 though. He faced some terrible Union generals who helped him look pretty good. Sort of like a soft tossing lefty facing the Angels.

This sucks. RIP Norm.

At this point, I don't think they ever will be fiscally conservative again, except in talking points. My hopes of a balanced budget or surplus just aren't going to happen. So that leaves two choices it seems. Tax and spend or borrow and spend. I don't like taxes but with the overall debt being a main concern of mine, anything to stop it from growing even more would be preferred. I feel gross posting that.

The withdrawal was doomed from the beginning with too little troops and too many people wanting to flee. It was twenty years in the making.

And I agree which is why I wasn't a big fan of his mandate and felt like he should have thrown in a few more option besides just those two (three if you count quitting your job which is an option but I know it is an extreme one).

Or they can just get tested weekly if it’s in the private sector if they choose to not to get vaccinated.

He’s giving private businesses two options. Get vaccinated or get tested weekly. He should have added a third option of antibody testing as well if he was going to impose mandates. But if he’s not doing the same thing for USPS and illegal immigrants, then it is idiotic. I haven’t dived into this but is he at least requiring for the latter two groups to at least be tested weekly at a minimum? If not, again pretty fucking dumb. But then again his border policy is terrible.

My question was about getting tested weekly as an alternative and people's thoughts on that. Focus.

While I don't agree with the private business mandate portion (I'm okay with fed workers mandate since I think that falls under Biden's authority), it does offer the alternative of getting tested weekly as opposed to getting the shot. I think that part is getting overlooked a bit. Thoughts on that? Is that over stepping as well?

I had no idea Smollett was in the Mighty Ducks.

Documentary.

It was Rico. He did the stick figures of them (I think they were stick figures). And they always talked about boobies.

Just finished episode 4 last night. Super depressed after watching it just knowing how poorly it was going in 2004 and again 2009 (the parts they talked about) and knowing we were still going to be there another decade. They knew back then they didn't have a plan or a strategy.

To be fair, you don't always answer questions either.

Meh it collapsed regardless. Military didn’t want fight for the government, government didn’t want to stick around and the end result is it all collapsed. Again I think Biden needs to get that money back but I know it won’t happen.
