Rebound

What “illegal shit” was Biden “slapped down” for doing? Do you mean the mask mandate for air travel that Trump imposed, which was stopped three weeks before it was set to expire? That wasn’t much of a slap.

Truth? Truth is easy: The Bible is a book. You open it, and you read it. But you don't do that. You say you do, but you don't. Example: Two gay people want to get married. Your retort? "They're persecuting me!" Yeah. Two people, minding their own business, are "persecuting" you because they're getting married. The only thing being persecuted is your sense of bigotry and hatred.

Because oil is a commodity. It’s price is set globally, so when Saudi production increases, global prices decrease.

Data? Link?

The article says that the Director of WHO stated that, “Globally, about 3.4% of reported COVID-19 cases have died.” Calling the 3.4% figure a “mortality rate” is correct, but it’s important to understand the context. It may well be that 9 in 10 infections go unreported. In the earliest days, only severe cases which resulted in hospitalizations were confirmed as Covid. We only have the data we have. We can’t take blood samples from every person on earth and analyze them all. We could go on and on about this, but it’s odd that the people who have been claiming there is no pandemic, that Covid is a hoax, that the vaccine doesn’t actually do anything, etc, are suddenly upset now that Biden stated that the pandemic is over. What does the term “pandemic” mean? It is a relative term applied to an epidemic which has spread globally and threatens large populations. So the President stated his belief that Covid-19 is no longer a pandemic, which does not mean that the disease has been eradicated.

I’m worried that Americans think this man, or any man, is above the law.

Lowest unemployment in over 20 years.

The lowest unemployment in over 20 years. We’re finally out of Afghanistan after 20 years. US soldiers aren’t in combat for the first time in over 20 years. We are finally investing in alternative energy, and in a manner that ensures our investments won’t be taken by China. We’ve invested in US semiconductor manufacturing. The deficit is 1/3 of Trump’s last deficit.

Oh? There’s “plenty of evidence the election was stolen from Trump”? Where is that evidence? The Cyber Ninjas didn’t find it. 64 lawsuits didn’t find it. Where is this mythical evidence? We’d love to see it.

EXACTLY! You can’t quote the Bible, you have to quote some made up baloney to justify your hatred of gays. Why not just read the Bible yourself? You said the LGB community is “persecuting” you… but you voted for the ADULTERY community. Are the adulterers persecuting you?

Trump is subject of six separate criminal investigations. Obviously, the dude has broken laws. One little example: After promising his supporters to share his tax returns, like every other Presidential candidate since Nixon, he went all the way to the Supreme Court to keep his tax returns private, then he fought like a dog to delay their release. OBVIOUSLY he has criminal activity to hide, and sure enough, his CFO wound up in prison over it.

Tell me where in the New Testament it says that homosexuality is a sin. If we read 1 Corinthians 16:9, it says, "Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind," So... if that says homosexuality is a sin... it puts fornication and adultery first, doesn't it?

No, we aren't a socialist country. A job isn't a "right," if somebody lays you off they don't have to hire you back. But people can get jobs today, the unemployment rate is under 4% and employers are dying to hire people; they can't find enough people to hire and why on Earth don't you know this? I feel like I'm talking to a Russian troll. Maybe in Russia you can't find a job except for writing lies on message boards, but here in the US, you can get a job anywhere.

My friend is a realtor and he's put over 150,000 miles on his Tesla in 3 years, and he's never had a problem.

Nothing replaced the sound of a horse and buggy, either, but we still don’t drive around in them anymore. And we developed the infrastructure of gas stations, which is much more complicated than a bunch of electric plugs. People who can park their car in their own garage or driveway don’t have an infrastructure problem. People in apartments… it’s not so good right now. I’m a home mechanic. Currently I have a car in my garage that has the engine and transmission on the floor, waiting for clutch parts. I’ve replaced all the gaskets except the head gasket. Rear main seal, oil pan, etc, etc. New water pump, all that stuff I’ve done myself. I’ll never be able to enjoy that with an electric car. But all my friends who have electric cars absolutely love them. It’s a better technology because all you’ve got is a giant battery, a small electric motor, a cooling system and a hydraulic brake system with an electric brake booster. No belts; it’s all electric — the brake booster, AC compressor, heater… All solid state and completely silent. People love that stuff. Besides that, the fastest Teslas are faster than the very fastest Porsches and Corvettes. Indy 500 may one day be all-electric.

You said infrastructure. The required infrastructure is electricity. Eventually, the end game is we’ll be able to fully charge one of these things in a few minutes. Then it will be no different than getting gas, when you want to. But I’ll tell you… I have a Prius Plug-in car, I plug it in at night and go to the gas station about once a month. You really won’t miss going to a gas station. You know what else you won’t miss? Oil changes, air filter changes, and brake pad changes. I just replaced pads and rotors on my Prius after ten years and 165,000 miles. Electric cars are better. You’ll see once you own one. People running out of electricity? They’ll figure that out after getting towed once.

You mean, “America is at its lowest level of unemployment in twenty-two years.” Yeah, that’s awesome, isn’t it?

Really? There’s no electricity where you live?

How long were you sick from Covid when you got it?

I’m just getting tired of the whole “Let’s commit crimes and then cry ‘political persecution’ when we get caught” schtick.

Yeah, I think it would be a genius idea for the guy who lost by 7 million votes to run again.

Let me give you some advice, because you obviously lack common sense, ok? If you’re ever inside a building, and you come upon a hallway, and the doors are closed, and you see that there is furniture piled up against the other side of the door and police on the other side of the door are shouting at you to not go through the door and one of them is pointing a gun at you: Do Not Smash Your Way Through That Barricaded Doorway. I know, that’s a tough read for some people. It could be that they barricaded the doors with furniture as part of an obstacle course fun run and maybe they were going to replace the windows and they’re hoping you smash all their windows to save them the time of doing it themselves. Hard call, I know. Well, no, pretty much anyone can figure out that when police tell you not to smash your way through the windows of a barricaded door and they’re on the other side of the door pointing a gun at you, people with IQ over 65 can figure out that they shouldn’t try to go through the doors. Ashli Babbit figured it out, anyway.

And yet, he kicked Trump’s ass by seven million votes. Trump filed 64 lawsuits and lost them all. Then he brought in goons to storm the Capitol and he still lost. He’s lucky he isn’t in prison where he belongs.

If the mysterious “handlers” did it, then won’t they just find a different candidate, since they’re the ones in charge? And why are there “handlers”? Why don’t one of the handlers just run instead? Are the handlers a bunch of 20-something’s in their dorm rooms? Has the whole Republican establishment been outsmarted by a team of invisible, undetectable college kids?

1) Jimmy Carter and Barack Obama didn’t cheat on their wives. Clinton did, and it got him impeached… though the outrage was non-existent when Orange Man did it. 2) Trump is a big fat tub of Jello. He can’t even hold a cup of water in his hands. 3) Comparing the wealth of Trump to Bernie Sanders is a joke. Like you. 4) Trump gave away Israeli intelligence to Russia, who he coddled up to while nearly destroying NATO. His “foreign policy” included using Ukraine to dig up non-existent dirt on Biden. And how did that work out? Russia wound up invading Ukraine. Good thing Trump personally held up weapons shipments to them. That dope probably would have shipped weapons to Russia to help them invade Ukraine, if they could get him dirt on Biden. 5) Yeah, Trump treated loyal Mike Pence really well. Uh huh. 6) Donald needed a bigger parade than France. 7) And now your defense is that Pride isn’t a sin at all… the “pick and choose religion” is in full bloom.
