That is a philosophy all governments follow......regardless of which flavor is in control but I get your point LOL

Approval rating Biden

Posted By Greg Shaffer

While we are discussing Biden's approval rating being dismal lets consider a couple reasons.

Since he took office:

1. The Taliban got a country

2. Russia got a pipeline

3. Illegal immigrants got a free pass into the US

Meanwhile US citizens got:

1. Inflation

2. High gas prices

3. Rampant crime

To be fair about it, Trump started the inflation ball rolling with the stimulus payments. NOTHING IS FREE

But that pretty much lays it out......that and he cant make sense for more than a couple minutes without a tele-prompter......

Soooo and a question: Why were we paying China to do gain of function research on corona viruses? Ohh wait, thats right, because we outlawed such things here 20 years ago but we still needed to get it done....Nevermind.

“We are still chock-full with COVID-19 patients "

Posted By Greg Shaffer

Kinda reinforces what I said a while back......these reports all seem to be coming from northern states. Infection rates will follow the weather.....colder it gets the more time people spend indoors, infection rates will go up simply based on proximity.....Soon they will rise in the southern states as well.....

Gas Prices in California in some places at $7,50 per gallon....

Posted By Greg Shaffer

Every single fiscal problem, the national debt, the deficit, etc as well as every single policy problem this country faces can be traced directly to a total of 545 human beings out of 320 million or so. They are directly, legally, morally and individually responsible for 100% of the domestic problems that we face.

They decide because we ALLOW them to decide.....we gave them the job and they are failing miserably. The problems we face exist because they want them to exist, if they did not want them to exist they wouldn't.

The great con is when they tell us we cant fix it because of politics, the economy or inflation. They are the ones that appropriate the funds. They make the rules, they set the policies, they CHOOSE......its not lobbyists, its not paid bureaucrats, its not regulators, those 545 folks HIRED them and they could FIRE them. Those 545 people control all of them. They CHOOSE. 

Its been said that they create the problems, then campaign against them.....That is 100% factual.

There is nothing theoretical about it Rod.....you and I do not decide fiscal or operational policy. The senate, the Congress, the President and the USSC do, all 545 of them.....They and they alone make those decisions. If the tax code is not fair it is because they want it that way. That is just one example. They as a collective DECIDE how this country runs. Party is irrelevant by the way. Things are the way they are because they collectively DECIDED they would be that way. There is not a single domestic fiscal or policy problem that cannot be traced directly back to the decisions of those 545 people (or the decisions of those they put in place to make them).

You sir, ...... seem to be bent on winning this years Darwin award.
You appear to be in dire need of enlightenment regarding your
communication methods. I suspect by the time you finish reading this
message you will begin to have a clue regarding your mistakes, at
least assuming that there is more in that head than you have shown to

Kaufman  , you old marmot felching, fellator of diseased yaks. Welcome
to the group!  We haven't had anyone this appallingly misanthropic,
and just plain spiteful, since the Chebucto Chunderhead. We do
appreciate your attempting to crawl out of the primordial slime, and
better yourself, by posting in here.  Unfortunately, you were bettered
in the entrance exam, by a frozen turnip, a broken toaster, and a
stretched Harley primary chain.  Your habit of picking scabs, is,
well, stupid.

The Maharishi Mahesh Yogi has said: " Kaufman is transcendentally
stupid."

Regarding Kaufman  ,Pope John Paul II said: "If I waddna the pope,
I'da kicka you stupid monkey ass."

Jimmy Durante came back from the dead to say: " Kaufman is so
stoopid, I never seen nuttin stoopider.  Inka-dinka-doo."

Scarlett O'hara, of Gone with the Wind, said: "Oh Rod , I do
believe you are the stupidest man, I've evah seen."

Stephen Hawking, in "A Brief History Of How Stupid Kaufman Is",
stated:
Kaufman is an example of what we call Singularity Stupid.  Stupid
collapsed on itself so far, that even the neutrons have collapsed.
Stupid gotten so dense, that no intellect can escape, kind of stupid.
He emits more stupid in one second, than the entire galaxy emits in a
year.

The Commandant of the United States Marine Corps, pointed at you, and
said, "STUPID!!"

Howard Cosell: "Well, .Kaufman..
After your inept displays,
Of egregious intellectual dysfunction,
There remains but one question.
How could anyone be so stupid?"

The State of Texas, has passed a resolution to have a, "Gawdam, that
  Kaufman is so stupid, he couldn't pour piss out of a boot, with a
hole in the toe, and instructions on the heel" day.  Because of your
*Texas-sized* stupidity.

Bob Dole said: "Bob Dole says that Kaufman is stupid, and when Bob
Dole says that Kaufman is stupid, Bob Dole means what he says. Stupid.
Right."

Oprah Winfrey says, "Hi, on "Oprah" today, we are discussing how
Kaufman can be that stupid."

You are weary, stale, flat and unprofitable. You are grimy, squalid,
nasty and profane.  You're a fool, an ignoramus.  Monkeys look down on
you, and laugh.  You are a waste of flesh.  You have no rhythm.  You
are ridiculous and obnoxious.  You are a living emptiness, a
meaningless void. You are sour and senile. You are a disease, you
puerile one-handed, slack-jawed, drooling meat slapper.

You  initiated an incoherent, flaky, boring, and mindless response,
and you egregiously assume moral, intellectual, and physical
superiority.  It must suck to be you, but then, you already know this.

You have greatly misunderstood the purpose of life.  You have greatly
misunderstood the purpose of the forum. You are a loser. You must
have spent your entire life in a skinner box to be this clueless.

Did I mention that you are stupid?  I cannot believe how incredibly
stupid you are.  I mean rock-hard stupid.  Dehydrated-rock-hard
stupid.
Stupid so stupid that it goes way beyond the stupid we know into a
whole different dimension of stupid.  You are trans-stupid stupid.
Meta-stupid.

You are so stupid you make Beavis and Butt-Head look like Nobel Prize
winners.

You clearly show yourself to be the most neanderthal, snotty,

And I wish you would go away.  Realistically, I don't think you have
the intellectual wherewithal to make such a decision, i.e., a correct
one.
So you will stay here, spooging your petty hatreds and minor thoughts,
into the ether, annoying any and all, until someday, someone, is gonna
grab ya by the ears, and pull ya on like a sock.

Just don't ask me how I *really* feel.

You have a nice day now......

EXCLUSIVE: Jan. 6 Protest Organizers Say They Participated in ‘Dozens’ of Planning Meetings With Members of Congress and White House Staff

There may still be a political cost to all of this, though. Recently Couy Griffin, the founder of "Cowboys for Trump," turned on Trump at a Qanon event in Las Vegas. Griffin was arrested and charged with participating in the Jan. 6th Capitol riot and jailed for nine days. In his estimation, the only people Trump got locked up were men like him who supported Trump the most, and he is not happy about it! He's starting to figure it out. Trump is a liar and a fraud who uses gullible men like him for his selfish political aspirations.

Lost "lives" as far as I have seen there was only one death actually caused and it was the police who shot an unarmed woman.....so where/what are these "lives" you mention?

Yes....3 of them unrelated though you are certainly trying to "relate" them. Are you so unsure of your position you need to inflate the numbers? One isnt enough for you? smile
