Russia is militarily and financially struggling to defeat its much smaller, weaker neighbor. They are using the same WW2 strategy as the USSR did in WWII; drown them in your own blood. These missiles might cost as much as the damage they do, so this is another bargaining chip should Trump manage to bring his buddy, Putin to the table. Putin needs…[Read more]

Thats the way. I had some that would let dogs bark for hours. I asked them to please stop several times. I was ignored. I setup 3kW PA gear with extra sub-bass on the edge of the property, aimed at their house. All covered in plastic sheeting in case of rain. Started with all sorts of psychological noise like sirens, screaming, chains, factory…[Read more]

There is a common feeling that you can’t make a decent living without an advanced degree. I have an advanced degree and never got close to as wealthy as a good electrician, carpenter, plumber, elevator mechanic, dental hygienist, or HVAC technician. And many of these well-paying trade jobs can’t be exported to where labor is che…

Pope, I agree with your take on Jewish culture. I know so many Jews who are atheists, yet they still practice many of the cultural attachments of the religion. Sometimes it is out of respect for the elders or family and sometimes just because they find it enjoyable. And here’s the thing…it’s no big deal if they don’t believe. The family still…[Read more]

I think underneath the big political rift in the US, there is a growing educational divide. Those without an economically useful tech degree really got hit harder by “globalization” and the offshoring of manufacturing. Everyone is not for college, there are all sorts of avenues to success that we don’t even explore. Hell, I don’t even think they…[Read more]

Our regard for nonhuman animals is shameful. If they’re pets they are beloved.

Irresponsibly loved.  Each year, approximately 2.7 million pets are euthanized (1.2 million dogs and 1.4 million cats) worldwide.

@unseen, yes I’m afraid for my son’s father. His dumbass hasn’t gotten his citizenship yet when he could have years ago. I’m afraid they will deport him. My son hopefully is safe. I’m a citizen. But then again you just never know with these assholes. They’ll deport anyone who “looks Mexican.” Next thing you know will come the g…

What Maher is saying is that you have to play to what people believe instead of what is true in order to win. In fact, Biden did turn the economy and inflation around, he did strive to end the trickle-down policies that both parties have been supporting for decades. Voters are in fact misinformed. Doesn’t matter. Bill is correct you must do what…[Read more]

Emperor Trump wants congress to go on recess so he can slide his morons into power without hearings. Republicans and their jelly-spines.

Come on. Palestinians are human and love their children.

Sorry, I have heard them say they hate Jews more than they love their children. Their actions confirm this. All they have to do is stop trying to kill Jews.

The parents of these brainwashed children are happy to use them as human shields. There were miles of tunnels, but those were for safeguarding their precious terrorists only. Such a great honor to have a martyr in the family, especially if they killed some Jews first. Even as many Iranians themselves are protesting their oppressive government,…[Read more]

Globalization was hard on people who didn’t get tech degrees or specialize in skills valued by international corporations. Education level has become the best predictor for how someone will vote. I have been worried for years that ultra-liberals can in fact be very unliberal and will drive the political center way to the right. I expressed that…[Read more]

Start at 10,000 feet and zoom in on a row of houses 50 miles from any Midwest or Southern larger city. Pick any house and zoom in on the kitchen where a 56 year old, married white couple having coffee and toast. Fox news is on the den TV that has a painting of Jesus placed atop. Trump is talking about eliminating the Dept of Education. They are…[Read more]
