I’d much rather you describe it. When it’s white is it trailer park white? Is it tinfoil hat white? Is it inbred white? Which one perks your ears up the most?
What is my wish Bob?
To have a politician who sat on the intelligence committee, that knows the truth yet spreads lies to hand cuff the leader of the free world by promoting the Russian hoax, that emboldened Russia, that divided our Country, held accountable.
And I bet you are against making America Great. Am I right?
Once again, you fail in your ability to separate the personality from the policymaker.
The country was unequivocally in better shape under Trump than under Biden. Period.
But there's too many dipshits in the country who looked at Biden and said....."Hmmm, he seems like a nice guy. I guess I'll vote for him".
A meglomaniac isn't necessarily a bad thing. Most people in that level of power have those traits.
A made up concocted charges and trial from a democrat DA with a very political agenda. Trump will never see jail time.
George Floyd was a multiple time convicted felon who couldn't follow the law. He rolled the dice with his life be believing the rules didn't apply to him. He also did of a drug overdose and a cardiovascular event, not someone with their knee on his back (because he was resisting arrest and wouldn't comply with police instruction).
Is Fox consider part of the MSM? Not sure. I would consider the big 3, (ABC, NBC, CBS) as well as the print media, which are all very liberal except for the WSJ.
So define "Main Stream Media." Not by 'which media qualify in your eyes'; but by the criteria that make a media organization "main stream."

the news outlets that don't require cable. The 'evening news' shows that a lot of people watch when they get home from work.
Appreciate the straightforward answer, but only about 25% of US homes qualify under your definition. Mainly very, very old people don't either have cable or a streaming cable equivalent.
Apparently your wish is to live in a country in which a person can be arrested and tried for treason for telling lies about a political figure. I don't think I'm misunderstanding you. You said a couple times.
If that is true, you're living in the wrong country. Considering all the times MAGA brings it up, it seems that you would understand what the constitution says. In short, the very first amendment says we don't do that in this country. I'm sorry to explain this like you are a child but it seems appropriate given your desired action against a member of congress.
If you move to an authoritarian country with a strongman in control, you can get your wish........although people to tend to not speak out against those in charge as they can end up in prison or dead.
You have to take the good with the bad in a society where free speech is the standard. You don't get to pick and choose which speech is allowed and which isn't. Sounds like you want a dictator you agree with. You're on the right path.
Get rid of that tired old word and racism accusations. Today she was with the Hispanic gathering and sure sounded like a wanna' be in that crowd. If DJT did the same, you'd be bitching like an Iranian with a new pager.
I will get rid of them when you stop being racist, gramps. This isn’t that difficult. Well, it is for you apparently.
Of course not.
But I currently live in a Country where the sitting political party took a 7 year old misdemeanor charge, against their political opponent, that had passed the statute of limitations, and somehow turned it into 34 felonies.
I thought republicans were the party of law and order though? So if someone is committing crimes and is convicted, isn’t that what you want?
Also, please show how the misdemeanor charge was past the statute of limitations please. Thanks.
Well then demonstrate you are sincere and stop calling for ANYBODY to be prosecuted for free speech.

Thanks for the link. I can see it both ways. Probably not the strongest item for the prosecution on its own merit but tied with everything else it was enough.The best — and worst — criticisms of Trump’s conviction

So should the Yale degrees of Justice Clarence Thomas, Dr. Ben Carson, and Dr. Henry Louis Gates be taken away since affirmative action is racist?
The founder of affirmative action was a black Republican, Arthur Fletcher who worked under the Nixon and Reagan administrations.
I couldn't careless about any of them. Just don't be out here on your high horse calling others racist, when you believe in discrimination due to race. Do you support segregation too? You just going all in? Do you want all black dormitories at Purdue?
Affirmative action and DEI is not racism. By the repubs being against them both, they will never have significant black voter support. Secondly if white folks didn’t discriminate against blacks on the first place during the Jim Crow era, there wouldn’t be any need for affirmative action or DEI in the first place.
Many companies are smartly backing away from DEI. DEI isn't helpful to the workers in general, the employer & definitely the consumer. Raises costs & lowers potential employee pool. It has actually created some backlash from the consumer in many instances. And they are dropping it, or downgrading it's importance to their management practices. They have found it's just smart business.

So it's not racist to hire based upon skin color... And it's racist to hire based upon skill and merit?
Affirmative action tells all that it aides they're not good or smart enough to do it on their own. It demeans them as well.
Good Lord BNI....Crow is dead, and racism would be too if a certain section of the black community didn't cry it for everything.
Racism is a much maligned and mis-used word. You have the same exact rights anyone else has. By claiming it so much the meaning of the word has been totally diminished.
Nope. Your statement is quite intellectually deficient. So, according to you, Clarence Thomas, Ben Carson, and Henry Gates were not smart enough to get into Yale? Is that what you are saying?
Nope, racism would be dead if white folks wouldn’t discriminate against blacks and other ethnic groups.
I'm quite sure those three gentlemen would have been allowed into any college they might have chosen. Maybe you or me might not make it, but they surely would have.
So blacks are in no way racist to whites or others, just that whites are the only ones that are racist to blacks and others. That’s hard to believe.
Dude, anyone can discriminate against anyone else. But don’t be naive. Y’all know what I’m talking about. White folks discriminating against blacks during Jim Crow is what I’m talking about. And it’s still happening today under Jim Crow’s more sophisticated son, James Crow Escquire. Still overt in a some of cases but it’s more subdued and coded nowadays. If it wasn’t for that discrimination and segregation we wouldn’t need to have affirmative action in the first place.
There is more discrimination against whites and Asians in America than against blacks. Sorry that hurts your feelings. Affirmative action is just revenge racism. It's still racism.
This ought to be a classic. So in your mind, how is there more discrimination against whites and Asians?
That’s not what you said so that’s why I responded. With DEI today if one were to consider racism it would be against the white race. There’s no denying that not always the best candidate will be hired for a job.
Y'all always assume that the black person that is hired due to affirmative action or DEI is not qualified. But that's why we've had affirmative action and now DEI because historically qualified black people have been passed up for employment or education.
Then when it comes to legacy admissions, particularly in the IVY League schools, that's the biggest fault in my opinion. Bush the Younger comes to mind. Y'all say nothing about legacy admissions. How many legacy students are not qualified to enter these schools but get in because of their parents? But the Asian student law suit blamed affirmative action without looking into the legacy admission issue.
Well if you're not hiring someone because they are white... And everyone knows that colleges deny Asians because they don't want to many Asians on campus.
