And the percentage of congress or mayors that say that is? Very small.

No they haven’t. A small segment of “leftists” have, but as G2 points out assigning allegiance is complicated. Most people on all sides of the issue recognize that Hamas is terrible. Some of those also think Israel represses Palestinians and don’t like US tax dollars supplying bombs dropped on Gaza. It is possible to understand the problem Israel faces and also hope they can limit civilian casualties in fighting Hamas. There’s no easy answer and calling people names or assigning viewpoints to vaguely defined groups doesn’t do anything to fix problems. Sure, there are extremists that do defend Hamas, want to kill Biden, or other horrible things. But they are relatively few, hardly representative of the left.

Or maybe being able to throw a bit harder (for fewer innings) and not facing a batter more than once is enough to elevate his effectiveness significantly. Failed starter.

Jared Goff throws out the first pitch at a game, unleashing a 99mph four seamer with movement for a strike. And subsequently signs a contract with the Tigers, giving up football.

I think this is an appropriate level of seriousness to apply to Eric’s “argument”:

Still FOS, I see.

It’s nice to know I’m wanted, but at 67 it would be hard for me to get into game shape. What’s the signing bonus?

Railroad? WTF

In the Navarro case- Don’t do the crime, if you can’t do the time. In this particular Trump case- Don’t do the crime (x), if you can’t pay the fine. So much whiny victimhood, so little focus on the behavior that lead to the judgements. Or, FOAFO.

Patrick Roy: The beatings will continue until morale improves.

I’m pretty sure I have shopped at that Vons store in the video and I don’t remember seeing that woman…so it can’t be true. (I am joking to make the point that anecdotal evidence is crappy- but I have gone there).

Call a whaambulance, liar.

Yes, I think there is a readymade counter to any southern border issue: the Trumpublican party had bipartisan legislation it crafted-until Trump said no. Which ties in with a bigger fail-the party as now constituted does not know how to govern. Or even cares to when given the chance. All they know or care to do is stoke fear and ignore the rule of law.

@smr-nj come on, let’s just call a Spade a Spade 😎

I don’t know who came up with the term “tankies”, but it’s stupid. This and the Gaza thread have devolved into nuance-free polarization. And lots of exaggerated statements. Occasionally there will be a post that tries to show a balanced approach (Hamas is unquestionably horrible, but Bibi and his policies are also bad, just not as much, but can less Gazan kids starve or die, please). Casting everyone as in two camps, calling people names serves no good purpose. IMO

And the whole innocence/guilt thing.

He didn’t do it! okay, he did it, but you can’t indict him! okay you can indict him, but you need to answer all these delaying tactics okay, we’re down to saying the timing and degree of friendship on the prosecution team matters. —— GUILTY

What light?

For all the conservatives and the trumpublicans screaming about open borders and broken systems I suggest they put their money where their month is and raise taxes to hire more people to improve the process.

🤔 what are the 19-74 year olds not receiving protection from?

Nail it to the perch.

Eric, could you provide specifics to your claim that Dems loved tariffs/then hated them/Biden kept them in place. And not just fringe Dems, or opinion pieces. For the record the Biden administration did retain some tariffs, but dropped others. Tariffs may effect some voters deciding who to vote for, but choosing Trump to fix international economics indicates a limited grasp of reality.

But did they fire Dom, the security goon? Didn’t the Eagles season start to crater during the SF game when he poked Greenlaw and got him kicked out? F that guy.

Using Hill as an example for WRs is like using Brady for QBs. They are the definition of outliers.

It would be a real shame if the Rams team bus broke down on the way from their hotel and they had to walk miles through icy conditions. Yeah, a real shame. 😎
