President Biden: The NEW one and only politics thread

Yes, because it's the woman doing it.

 

There's a whole lot of it around here.

 

It was actually nice to read about a normal Republican, in The Atlantic:

What Mitt Romney Saw in the Senate

 

If he was confident in his positions, he wouldn’t need to write 5,000 words about why everyone is wrong about him.

He’s either deeply insecure or aggrieved. He believes he’s the only sane man in the world and everyone else is wrong or out to get him. Paranoid.

It’s like something I would do. Not a real thinker.

 

The Pentagon has contingency plans for everything. If Trump was talking about attacking Iran and asked how that would work, it would be standard to brief those plans. That wouldn't mean that Milley was advocating such an attack.

They've got a contingency plan to fight off Canada invading the U. S. too.

 

Based on the exchange rate, I think it's working. A lot of our winter North of the Border friends are having serious discussions about being able to afford Florida this season.

 

He quit Twitter? Because all The Cools are there.

And the Nazi conspiracy theorists Elon follows.

 

We did it.

 

What Smith is asking for, page 7: "a motion seeking to restrict extrajudicial pretrial statements or to require notification before conducting a survey of the potential jury pool"

 

I’m perfectly sane. Everyone else, however, is insane and trying to steal my magic bag. St. Patrick of Buchananomics!

 

Ok, the veneration of Romney is a little much. He’s been on the public political stage for three decades. I’ve seen the guy go from pro-choice (vs Ted Kennedy) to wishy-washy to pro-life to very pro-life. He’s gone from pro-Romneycare to anti-Romneycare/Obamacare. From casually pro-gay rights to pushing for an amendment as Mass. governor to restrict marriage. Gee is right, he does not give a flying fuck in general. He also does not give a flying fuck about consistency or personal integrity: see him twisting himself into a pretzel lobbying for the Secretary of State gig. He’s won two elections in his life: Mass. governor in 2002 and U.S. senator for Utah in 2018. Maybe you can count his election to his local church’s board or governing panel, too. We’re not talking about a political genius.
