  1. Biden refused to sign off on an aid package for Ukraine, passed by Congress for several weeks in deference to Russia. https://foreignpolicy.com/2021/12/16/us-ukraine-russia-military-support-congress-biden-delay-aid/
  2. I understand what unemployment is, you don’t understand what “record low” means.
  3. Record unemployment??? NOT. Six million more jobs need to be filled before he can claim he has created a single job. More people dying of COVID than during Trump. Did Russia’s bidding by green lighting Nord Stream 2. Debacle in Afghanistan. Inflation reducing real wages. Violent crime running rampant. Approval rating in the thirties and dropping. LGB
  4. “A half-century ago, progressives used to push limitless free expression, blasting conservatives for their allegedly blinkered traditionalism. They boasted of obliterating once-normal boundaries in art, music and literature to allow nudity, profanity, sexuality and anti-American boilerplate. Now? The left is Victorian — increasingly puritanical, regressive and hypersensitive. Even totalitarian censorship and book-burning have weirdly become part of their by-any-means-necessary methods.” https://www.chicagotribune.com/opinion/commentary/ct-opinion-left-cancel-culture-books-hanson-20201204-jib62lsznvh3zfo2vvcidilblm-story.html
  5. https://www.chicagotribune.com/opinion/commentary/ct-opinion-left-cancel-culture-books-hanson-20201204-jib62lsznvh3zfo2vvcidilblm-story.html Hello kettle, meet pot.
  6. “The hard reality is that decarbonizing the global electric grid will require finding economically viable — and socially acceptable — substitutes for coal and natural gas. Sure, renewables are politically popular and they are growing. But both wind and solar are facing increasing headwinds because of land-use conflicts. Since 2015, more than 300 local communities from Maine to Hawaii have rejected or restricted wind projects. The backlash against Big Solar is also gaining momentum. Over the summer, Big Solar projects in Pennsylvania, Nevada and Montana were rejected. Among the most recent rejections: In November, regulators in Henry County, Va., rejected two large proposed solar projects.” It is amusing that sharing this simple reality results in name calling and personal attacks. My thread “The Green New Deal = Magical Thinking” was so controversial that it was eventually locked. Ironically, global CO2 emissions are greater now than they were a half a decade ago when I started the thread. #Vindicated
  7. As my grandmother used to say: try in one hand and poop in the other, and see what one fills up first.
  8. “I am harsh, I am cold, and my name……?
  9. “we expect U.S. fossil fuel production to continue rising in both 2022 and 2023, surpassing production in 2019, to reach a new record in 2023.” https://www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.php?id=50978 Even coal is making a comeback. I don’t think net zero is in our future.
  10. Not with the “target rich environment” provided by the Biden administration. Ukraine/Russia? Border Crisis? Inflation? Crime Spree? Legislative Failure? Labor Market Turmoil? COVID? Midterms? Biden Gaffes? It has FOX news wishing for more hours in the day.
  11. MSNBC and CNN double down on stupid and continue ratings suicide by continuing to be stuck on 1/6 with Democracy in Peril and the RMS.
  12. Because the disparity is much more profound in high level combat arms. (Both officers and enlisted)
  13. That was all before Nixon ended the draft. In the all volunteer force, the “tip of the spear” guys are overwhelmingly white. Some of the reasons for this disparity are barriers to entry such as: not having a criminal record, being able to swim, and having to pass a land navigation course. https://www.rand.org/pubs/research_briefs/RB7526.html
  14. Everyone knows math is racist. https://marketresearchtelecast.com/canada-declares-a-math-test-for-teachers-racist-and-unconstitutional-but-some-question-the-decision/232753/
  15. I never saw FOX as superior, the market place did. I don’t watch FOX, they are predicable and boring, I watch MSNBC to get my fill of liberal tears. (Andrea Mitchell was positively crestfallen today)
  16. Was your privilege only extended to white Brits?
  17. I didn’t quote the article, tough guy, it’s not just leadership it is enlisted soldiers as well. Do some more research before you pop off half informed, you will look less foolish.
  18. It only seems fair that us white male soldiers bear the brunt of combat, given we are the beneficiaries of a racist, misogynistic patriarchy.
  19. I was in combat arms for the duration of my military career so I never administered a PT test to any women. I did administer many PT tests in my all male units and I don’t recall giving the slow guys a head start to make things “fair”
  20. So to address this inequity, every time the taller player scores his points would be redistributed.
  21. https://thefederalist.com/2022/01/19/in-defiance-of-youngkin-fairfax-public-school-demands-high-schoolers-participate-in-privilege-bingo/ I think the libs are just pissed off that their indoctrination factories are being scrutinized.
