Most of us aren't idiots, but I don't think any of us are useful.

When you're a wealthy country, corruption is OK.

Except that he has also been commenting in the sports threads.

It matters because MAGAs suck while old school Republicans are capable of being reasonable at times.

I am hoping digitalpigsmuggler is more old school Republican and less MAGA. If so, he or she could add some balance to the forum.

Fine, eliminate both parties.

Jones is just Fing with his followers now seeing how much they will believe.

Apparently, he is not made of steel.

It means he was telling Fox News what they wanted to hear, but wanted to hedge in case he has to back pedal later.

And the whole constitution is "We The People!"

I loved the Cabrera trade and could not believe they were able to pull it off. I was hoping they would build around him with young players, but it never happened. It was still a fun team because they were good, but it had an artificial feel to it and you knew they wouldn't be any good without the bloated payroll.

I also became a fan in '68.

Six-month t-bill at 5.14%.

I believe if Baddoo was not forced onto the roster via Rule 5, he'd be a hot shot rookie and one of their top prospects this year.

I knew I noticed something on your left hand when you dipped into the pink popcorn drum a few years ago.

We misjudged you. You're not a stupid kid. You're an angy old man.

You can get a couple of decent pizzas for $30!

It costs money to park and eat to go to a game too. The main reason I never go to Fenway anymore is the cost and hassle of getting there.

A trip to the Boston Aquarium costs $34 and Boston is a pretty expensive city.

$50-100 to go to an aquarium? No aquariums for me!

I think not caring and not comprehending go hand in hand.

A mask is marginally effective at preventing spread of the virus. Add up a million marginals and you get a substantial effect. One problem all along has been that so many people are only concerned with whether a mask helps ME and can't seem to comprehend that it might help others. That being said, masks are a pain and I don't wear one any more unless I am told to do so which happens in doctors offices and sometimes at work (when I'm not remote). In those cases, I wear them without complaint.

He speaks like a scientist, very cautiously with no absolutes. If somebody on the left or right took that and put it into their own context that is their fault.

Did lefties think the lab leak was a conspiracy theory or did they think a lab leak engineered together by the Democrats, Fauci and China to take down Donald Trump was a conspiracy theory?

eh, he said, she said...Fauci is by far the public figure I have trusted the must throughout the pandemic (not that he has much competition). People change their mind when they learn things. They sometimes say different things according to the sophistication of the audience.
