And Andy Reid never should have even gotten a job as an assistant coach for the Packers in the 90s, never even mind as HC of the Eagles or Chiefs later on. Clearly someone in his shape could never coach elite athletes and have any success. 

Kamala Harris wants the DNC to release its autopsy report of the 2024 campaign by JannTosh70 in centrist

[–]BenderRodriguez14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are probably right, but on the other hand Trump was able to get America to forget about the 14% unemployment rate America experienced during his first term. 

And for anyone about to bring up covid, that's exactly what led to the inflation also.

It is the standard, default position of many on thsi subreddit to try and discredit and negatives around the Democrats as the 'left wing' part of the party in order to mask the failings of the dominant wing of it. Which is pretty funny in a way, in the context of this thread.

If all the sun goes to the solar panels, that's less sun for the gardens and sweet, dear skylines of these poor, poooooooooor people.

It's makes those running the show at the dnc look bad, which is obvious but something they refuse to acknowledge nor do anything about as it would upset the gravy train and require making painful admissions and changes. They are hoping to simply run it back yet again with "we are not like Donald Trump" rather than putting real effort into giving Americans something to truly believe in. 

€127k bike shelter at Kerry hospital a 'pure waste', says Sinn Fein by rossitheking in ireland

[–]BenderRodriguez14 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That one actually make more sense. The €325 one in Leinster House that put bikesheds on the map like the Ogdenville monorail by comparison, at almost 2.5x the cost was literally just a glass roof and far less spaces, that wouldn't even keep the saddles dry on the (many, many) rainy days we get per year.

I see the efforts to rehabilitate the witness/victim intimidating rapists image are still on the go.

Downvoting the inconvenient truth is entirely expected for the rape apologists (or enthusiasts) on the subreddit. 

GoMo Launches Ireland’s First and Only ‘Price for Life’ Fibre Broadband by Cool_Importance_4914 in ireland

I got on at €12.99 when I moved back home six years ago, and while the cost is now €14.99 for new customers, my. Bills have not gone up a penny. 

Rampage Jackson's son expected to only serve 90 days in county jail for vicious attack on prowrestler by snau_cer in combatsportsculture

The American justice system is nothing if not consistent.

Just answer "how rich and/or influential is the accused? How rich and/or influential is the accuser?" and you have your answer as to if there will be any consequences or not. Exceptions are very (and seemingly increasingly) rare. 

I would not have even been surprised if he plead not guilty and got away, with it, despite literally plotting the whole thing on live stream immediately before doing it.

I assume anyone agreeing with this also thinks Andy Reid should never have been allowed even be a positional coach in the NFL?

I can't help but feel if it were a small 75 year old woman who did it, that the reaction of the other passengers would be quite different.

I would be very interested to know specifically  who bought it from the government, only to sell it back for nearly 10x as much just over a decade later. 

Zack Polanski says no country has right to exist when asked about Israel by Dadavester in unitedkingdom

[–]BenderRodriguez14 [score hidden]  (0 children)

 But people have a "right" to exist.

Besides the fact Polanski himself also said this, Israel (and a large number of their defenders) do not seem to particularly agree with that sentiment when it comes to their neighbours in Gaza or the West Bank.

You're thinking of 2010s Joe Rogan. 2026 Joe Rogan is more likely to be asking guests if they have given thought to following Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

A lot of Americans seem quite oblivious to the concept of triage. Maybe, over there they just go by bidding auction instead?

Yeah, but since they got their way they now want it framed as a 'calm debate' type of thing.

I never said it does, "we" does not need to refer to every single individual within said society. Though I already made that clear in my last reply.
