    The election 2024 Thread

    heron replied to Tweety's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Doesn't that put the onus on pro-choicers to do some public fact checking - aka consciousness raising? Women who need late-term abortions have been an invisible constituency since forever. It's up to...

    What caught your attention in the world today?

    heron replied to toomuchbaloney's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Yes. I'm frankly leery of most of what's been published on the subject. Vietnam and Iran are two examples of major conflicts entered into because of deliberate lies. I'd really rather not get dragged...

    The Trump Thread

    heron replied to Tweety's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Naaah - I read the post under discussion an ill-informed attempt to minimize anything that might document trump's lawlessness. The silly riff about liberals was supposed to make us defensive. Pure...

    Well thank you Captain Obvious! Flipping conspirators is SOP when going after criminal enterprises like drug gangs and organized crime families. It's not mystifying at all that magadonians would look...

    Israel Hamas War

    heron replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    US wartime propaganda hasn't really changed much over the course of my adult life. History is, after all, written by the winners. As far as dead babies are concerned, whose dead babies am I...

    Israel Hamas War

    heron replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    It's a lot of peoples' suspicion. I've seen it all over lefty commentary. No solid evidence though. Not worth chasing down yet. In fact, we may never know. It doesn't seem like the kind of thing the...

    What caught your attention in the world today?

    heron replied to toomuchbaloney's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    You missed my point. I was referring to the fact that just about every argument over trans identity seems to be over MTFs. As if that is the only direction that matters. FTMs are seldom, if ever,...

    heron replied to toomuchbaloney's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    True. What I'm referring to is the anti trans rhetoric floating around the general social atmosphere, for instance the hysteria over bathrooms. Does it have to do with reproductive capacity? Policing...

    Yes, I got tweety's sarcasm and added a bit of my own in agreement. Since we're asking questions, here's mine: All prosecutors, from the US Attorney general on down are tasked with speaking...

    No, I'm saying that the particular talking point you refer to involves considerable editing out of relevant context in order to point the finger at Biden. See also the phony email presented as proof...

    Sounds like just a rousing chorus of don'tlookoverthere. Alternatively, a transient episode of pickme syndrome, maybe? Anyway, I, too, would like to hear more about this mess of which tweety...

    Marines run in my family, so I'm inclined to credit them with exceptional performance even when they had nothing to do with it. My bad. But back to the large discussion. It's not just about...

    You're right, I goofed. Still waiting with great anticipation to hear what he has to say. He is being credited with keeping our armed forces out of the attempted overthrow of the 2020 election as well...

    Gen. Mark Milley was trump's top military guy. He's been trying to retire, but Tuberville's block wouldn't let him be replaced. Dem senators got together and figured out a way to get around it and...
