i find that clicking the “keep me signed in” before using the iPhone stored password keeps me signed in.

Sic transit gloria mundi (so shut up and get back to work)[quote quote=1635]Not even close. They were critical in the questions but did not enter the room with a pocketful of prepared speeches. They actually were thoughtful 90% of the time as Republicans usually are and nearly all would admit, despite their party affiliation. That is not to say there were not partisan disagreements. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_House_Select_Committee_on_Benghazi[/quote]
All I know is this: if I had people working for me who acted even half as infantile as the dem representatives that I listened to yesterday, they would be fired on the spot. The disrespect shown was disgusting. Barr was fully justified in laughing at the show.

Sic transit gloria mundi (so shut up and get back to work)I just want to know: is this what republicans did in the Benghazi hearings? Did we ever see this level of crudeness? I honestly didn’t watch them much.

Sic transit gloria mundi (so shut up and get back to work)Did anybody watch or listen to the Barr hearing? What a shitshow. The Dems must rely on none of their constituents actually watching the circus they put on. What childish, rude, and brutal people they are.
I reclaim my time.

Sic transit gloria mundi (so shut up and get back to work)Brilliant. You can see the intern who compiled the list being fired if you close your eyes real tight.

Heavy doses of salt are bad for you.

Sic transit gloria mundi (so shut up and get back to work)[quote quote=1596][quote quote=1594]Pin your hopes on the malaria drug and open up society. LOL.[/quote] More bad theater. Can I play? You get Covid and don’t know what to do. The MD says he is going to flip a coin to help decide what to do. Heads you take the malaria drug because there is evidence of some success, tails you tell the doctor that under no circumstances are you to take the malaria drug because it’s laughable. I know exactly what I would do. What’s your call?[/quote]
TC has taken antimalarials before. That alone would make me pause to consider whether I would.

The lack of accountability in local government will be a portion of our downfall.

Sic transit gloria mundi (so shut up and get back to work)[quote quote=1544]Interesting yet instructive that that you or anyone plugged into the rhetoric of the MSM would focus on race in this hypothetical tale rather than the political narrative driving the progressive socialistic movement to destroy the structure of our society. I understand your perspective but if you focus on that only, you miss the larger and greater point. Big picture, PL. Do not fall into the trap of inferring that anyone is “racist” or any statement is “racist” as all progressives do when one points out the fallacy of their movement and actions. I do not find the above narrative amusing in the least. You are mirroring their ploy that if one uses satire to point out the usage of race as strategy of the political narrative of the Left, one is therefore using racist rhetoric. WTF. They us race as a cudgel and if you point that out and highlight it, even in a parody, you are racist. Sol Alinsky redux. In this war (and that is what it is), any weapon is fair game and playing the race card, the sex card or any other card to mask the true nature of what is the end goal of the movement really is the game plan and has been since its inception. Oppose us and you are racist! St Louis is instructive. Under the new socialist DA regimes fostered by Soros and others, it is without consequence if one trespasses onto private property, threatens property owners goods and person and terrorizes a private neighborhood but it is a chargeable offense to use weapons legally licensed and obtained on one’s own land to deter such illegalities. (Apparently, one can also alter evidence to manufacture new charges) This has happened in Portland, Chicago, Detroit, Seattle, Minneapolis, NYC and other places. It will soon come to your town if the Dems win because no Dem will oppose the left wing of its party and the socialist mayors and DA`s enabling it. They are emboldened and will become increasingly so until the election to create chaos. Oppose us and you must be racist! It will only be stopped in its tracks at least temporarily if Trump wins the election. “Live free or die” works for me while it seems so many prefer “Live scared rather than die” these days.[/quote]
touche. I got a kick out of it. Green bugs and all.

Sic transit gloria mundi (so shut up and get back to work)[quote quote=1502]No matter what people think of Trump. He has exposed the CCP for what they are and no future president can ignore that we are in conflict with them. My money is on us, even with less aggressive conventional Administrations[/quote]
I disagree. The Chinese threat will be papered over by 98 percent of politicians in the U.S. because it is being papered over by nearly 100 percent of the wealthy. Too many wealthy people (especially the billionaires) have a need for access to the Chinese market, and won’t poke the bear.
They steer the politicians.
Trump has been right on China. He was right on ISIS. He has been right on NATO. He has been “not wrong” on North Korea (remember, they were about to nuke us when he took office), and he has been “not wrong” on Afghanistan as best I can tell. The question is whether he has been right or wrong (or voting present) on Russia…but Russia isn’t dangerous with moderate energy prices.
His foreign policy has been overall better than anybody could have expected from a marketing-driven socialite blowhard.
As to China: Here’s the rub… In 1985, the U.S. imported approximately $400 million of goods from the USSR. Inflation-adjusted to today, that’s about $1 Billion. We exported 6 times as much to the USSR than we imported from them.
For comparison, the U.S. imported approximately $450 billion of goods from China in 2019. That amount is about 4 times what we exported to China.
In other words, the Communists have done a really good job of wresting the means of production from the Capitalists. So, all the capitalists have their balls in a vice and won’t criticize the communists… See the NBA for example, or Amazon’s quick walk back of its TikTok ban.

Sic transit gloria mundi (so shut up and get back to work)That’s a heck of a response, Bob. The references to foreign combatants on U.S. soil and US Citizens living abroad are golden. Once again, logic is a tough mother.
Your line about rights and privileges of citizenship only accruing to citizens is a good one and incites a lot of arguments from the left. CA Prop 187 and the debate around it was a good example of that conflict writ large that cause a lot of liberal lashing out.
