The Random Thoughts About Anything, except VAR, Thread [R]

Here's a good summrt.

Trump

• The “billionaire” who hides his tax returns.
• The “genius” who hides his college grades.
• The “businessman” who bankrupted 6 casinos and lost over $1B in 10 years.
• The “playboy” who pays for sex.
• The “Christian” who doesn’t go to church or read the bible and thinks he is the "Chosen One" and the "Second Coming"
• The “philanthropist” who defrauds charity; the Trump Foundation
• The “patriot” who dodged the draft 5 times & received 5 deferments
• The “innocent man” who refuses to testify and blocked witnesses from testifying/ignored subpoenas from lawmakers
• The “married family man” who is divorced twice and had affairs behind the backs of each of his 3 wives including the current one with Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal
• The “hard working President” who has golfed more than any other President

...and taxpayers are paying (a) for Trump to golf at his own resort, (b) for secret service lodging (c) for frequent rallies he refuses to pay for.

 

you left out one glaring one...

the cvnt who IS a total cvnt......

there, fixed.....

 

nah - that was actually the second piece of the avalanche. It started with a guy called Lee Attwater and the concerted pincer attack on Gary Hart in 1988 ... bu tthat was somewhat behind the scenes in terms of its obvious manipulation of the public.... but it began there.... An abandonment of all connection to any form of decency....
John McCain, for all that I would naturally disagree with him about, was in his own way, an upholder of the idea of decency (it used to be an american political public ideal!). That's fundamentally why Trump couldn't associate with him... Trump has zero decency. He is basically its antithesis.

 

Well, I hate to drag this thread away from politics....

But a French player has applied a new twist to the term 'nut job'

"An amateur soccer player in France has been suspended for five years for biting an opponent’s penis during a fight on the pitch.

The incident occurred during a game in November between SC Terville and AS Soetrich, two clubs in the eastern region of Lorraine, separated by just a 10-minute drive. When two players began fighting, the unidentified victim (a Terville player) stepped in to break it up, according to local news site Lorraine Actu. That’s when the Soetrich player bit the Terville player on the penis.

The victim was forced to go to the emergency room, where he received a dozen stitches to close the wound and was deemed unfit to work for four days.

The matter was referred to the disciplinary arm of the local soccer governing body, which ruled this week that the Soetrich player be suspended for five years. His club was also fined €200.

Incredibly, the victim and his club were also punished. He was suspended until June 30, 2020, for his actions in the locker room and in the parking lot. Terville was fined €200 and docked two points in the league standings. "

Like I said, a real 'Nut Job'.

 

"His actions in the parking lot and locker room," yeah I can only imagine the rage/terror of a man with his cock bitten into.

 

Wife had a cake made for me today for my birthday

 

RIP Mamba YNWA

Memorial service was today. Be thankful for every day mates.

 

Now let’s get back to politics.

Let’s not!! Let’s meet Caroline Wozniacki a Danish former professional tennis player. She reached world No. 1 in singles, just retired. Her favourite practice shirt was Stevie Gees.


Rarely misses a game, was on Men in Blazers

 

Pretty girl - good tennis player, great warm up kit!

 

Her career went downhill after she let a man utd fanboy break her heart.

 

Explain why Sanders would be "an evil"? This is where your analysis falls apart. I'm fascinated by how people would never consider saying that those policy makers in places like New Zealand and Denamrk and Norway and Ireland and so on are evil for providing a lot of safety nets for people who might need them. But the minute an American espouse a lighter version of these things there's got to be something wrong with him.
I'm guessing that an advanced alien looking down on us would more likely think its the country and the body-politic of the place that has something wrong with it, not a person of reasonable good-will towards other people such as Bernie Sanders.

 

The only problem with viewing things as simple balanced fractures and grievances which have escalated and counter-escalated in an intellectual fight for 50+ years is that such a proposition, as a totality, allows for the green lighting of the introduction of a section of the press which has been taken over with malicious intent and used from that point on, entirely for public-opinion-manipulation based overwhelmingly on falsehoods and cant, all of this designed to gee up one side of an argument that would have otherwise continued to falter and fail and hobble along (like an idea fallen out of Strom Thurmond's head) along the same gradual course it had been failing along in the years between the mid 60s and the late 80s.

Conservative moderation isn't a bad thing, per se, but it's fairly obvious that when restrictions to freedom are loosened in societies (say for the Western world - post WWII - starting in Europe and following on a decade later in the US), and reach the point where people are individually free to think and act for themselves without the fear of punitive reprisal and hostility by society, then the gradual incline is toward social liberalism. This, if left to its own devices, would of course tend toward a greater liberal weighting in the nature of the body politic. Which is simply what a thing would be if allowed to be - however, if you can call it a bias, then you can erect a platform to wage an anti-bias.

Maliciousness and deception of that kind of order should be called what it is. All political conversation should revolve around that. The people who most need this help are those who have been thus stupefied.....

 

Media reporting today that the premier league could be cancelled if Coronavirus gets worse.
They would decide if cancel or leave it to clubs to decide who wins league and position of all clubs and who gets relegated.
hmmmmmm cannot see the bottom 3 club agreeing to that

 

We need to win our 4 games as quickly as possible

 

Why do you guys consider your FPTP systems where one can only choose between two options still a democracy?

 

Those countries you mentioned don’t have a massive Military Industrial Complex to support. Or a bunch of 3% ers who need tax breaks so they can buy back into their shares so they can hoard more money.

 

After our game today I had to get away. Piled Ringo and my old gitfiddle (guitar) into the car and found a quiet beach. Ringo trotted around checking all the Driftwood logs for pmail while I sat on a nice log and worked on a couple of tunes.
I’m really not very good but out on the beach with nobody around it amuses me.
None of the tunes I know are less that 40 years old. Music died when two of the Beatles did. So one I played today was the title song from their last album “Let it Be”. Tough one, it has all of 4 chords and all in the top 3 frets.
Didn’t get much support from Ringo other than he licked my ear.

I feel better now.


Can we go home and eat now?

 

4 wins away but now we can not wine it at home v palace we got to do it at city but of cause city have to win all their games b4 they play us

 

I just don't see why it's "bad"?
It strikes me as generally good.

 

Well, as you probably guess. .... That's the key to my point. I don't think a Massive Military Industrial Complex is a good thing. In a free functioning democracy it would be curtailed down to a standard that meets defensive necessity. Not a superstructure of lies about defensive necessity ......

 

I agree with that.
But that's not what it seemed that you said. Or at least not what I took it to mean. When you said you wouldn;t vote for him it seemed to me to be of policy and taxation opinion based.....
Personally, although I voted for Sanders in the California primary, I hope Biden gets the nomination, because the risk of not beating that sh!thead out of the white house is not worth any kind of policy desire or timing ....

Trump is an imminent danger to the basic decency and viability of functioning democracy...
