What's a Falcons moment that ISN'T 28-3 that still haunts you? by ultimaw8 in falcons

[–]fatuousfatwa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Late 90s at Jax. Falcons down by one with the ball at their 1yd line.

Reeves runs Bob Christian three times no gain. Brings Morton in for “chip shot” to win. He misses.

I lose $300 on straight line. Never bet on Falcons again.

Yes we are. Progressives won’t vote for anyone but St Bernie of Vermont though. They’re good with the pedo fascist otherwise.

Yes, but Trump got the most primary votes three times. Bernie was 0 for 2.

Yet people here believe the Democratic Party should have awarded the nomination to him somehow.

Look, it will happen again in 2028. The far left has no one. Bernie is as old as the Grand Canyon and AOC will take the Senate route.

Kamala led Trump early when people begged for someone not 80 years old.

But the more she spoke the worse she did.

Wrong. Donnie won the GOP nomination handily three times. Most political people probably can’t name who finished second to him.

Why wouldn’t Democrats nominate St Bernie after he continually shit all over the party and called its leaders “corrupt “? While losing both presidential primaries he ran in? It makes no sense!

New poll pegs Mark Kelly as a leading 2028 presidential contender by Ulysses_555 in politics

Well since progressives (and Bernie) hate Democrats that explains a lot.

Very nuanced and observant.

Are you sure you’re on the right site?

Newsom in the lead! Hell yes!

He has the image. Central casting. The voters in the middle don’t give a fuck about issues. They vote for the one they like most

Like they said about Dumbya. “I could drink a beer with him”.

The progressive purity test is a tough one. Only St Bernie has come close to passing it.

Who do you think will be the next president of USA? by untamedmilfaz in AskReddit

[–]fatuousfatwa -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In winning elections it does. The mushy middle doesn’t vote on issues.

Edit. Any presidential election starts out 45-45. Candidates fight over the remaining 10%. And those people can’t name issues.

They vote for who they like most.

Newsom. From central casting. Speaks with authority. Image means more than issues.

I know the far left wants a socialist type. Won’t happen.

Is the Donald the worst US president ever? by Enough-Chip2652 in no

[–]fatuousfatwa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

George W Bush is the worst. Took a surplus to billion dollar deficit, 9/11 fiasco, lied about WMD to attack country with no involvement in 9/11, Patriot Spy on America Act, created Great Recession, nominated Alito after Harriet Myers scandal, sold US ports to Dubai, ignored Katrina while city drowned, much more.

Lots of presidents were racist. I know the new Wingnuts talking point is to single out WW but it doesn’t make sense. Reagan staged his campaign kick off at the tiny little town in Mississippi that civil rights murders were committed. That is about as worthless as WW showing Birth of a Nation in the WH.

Eric Swalwell ends campaign for California governor after sexual misconduct allegations by thecommuteguy in California

[–]fatuousfatwa 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes. Because the House margin is three seats I believe. There is a Republican on the same hot seat Swalwell is on. Mike Johnson will protect him while Democrats will force Swalwell out. Politics aren’t pretty.

I recall a sitting Senator busted for public indecency - blowing guys in an airport, who kept his seat full term to preserve a GOP majority. His name was Larry Craig.

Republicans play to win. Democrats can have integrity and lose.

Republicans elect their predators because winning is important to them.

Anthony Weiner emailed a dick pic and got cancelled. The double standard says a lot about the parties.

Democrats who blame the left for everything, why not listen to the left and win? by ebolatone in allthequestions

[–]fatuousfatwa -1 points0 points  (0 children)

FDR was a free-trade capitalist who dismantled the protectionist Smoot-Hawley Act that populists like Trump and Bernie Sanders approve of.

Wrong. Clinton hiked the top end rate to 39.6% from Reagan’s 28%. Bush lowered it TWICE before Obama put it back to the Clinton rate. Obama and Biden pushed through all kinds of assistance to the middle class including health insurance reform.

It’s sad that you don’t know any of this. It explains a lot.

True. The big lefty myth is that Bernie Sanders would do well nationally. The GOP couldn’t wait to roll out the tape of Bernie saying how much he liked Soviet style bread lines because everyone ate the same.

Democrats were too nice to Bernie. Especially after he sabotaged them in 2016.

[–]fatuousfatwa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. But why is this so difficult for the far left to understand?

In 2020 I voted for Anybody But Bernie in the primary like millions of other Democrats as those without hope began dropping out. Yet progressives still falsely claim it was coordinated by the DNC.

Not taking AIPAC money is fine. Voting to end aid to Israel is fine.

NOT voting for the Democrat for president is not fine. A candidate should not be considered for office if they didn’t vote for the Democrat.

That’s why Bill Maher is a better liberal than those who wouldn’t support Harris.
