    Hi John, When Eisenhower left office, he was asked what he thought was his biggest mistake as POTUS. He said appointing Earl Warren to the SCOTUS. A lot of us think that was his best decision. Things do not always go as planned. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Bill, Re: Both parties have idiots. I agree. However, IMO the GOP has more of them and they are further along the road called Stupid Street. Re: to ignore the law and rule in a way that she believes is correct? I am of the belief that judges should judge. The sole purpose of a judge is to judge. To me, that means to consider all sides & come to a decision. Is that not what we want them to do? Here in Oregon, we have Measure 15 which imposed minimum mandatory sentences. It was wrong when it was passed & it is wrong now. It will always be wrong. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi folks, Maybe some light at the end of the tunnel: Ukraine also claims to have killed six Russian generals. Russia acknowledges just one dead general. NATO: 7,000 to 15,000 Russian troops dead in Ukraine - oregonlive.com Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Phil, Re: An American man who fled the U.S. after being charged with assaulting police officers during the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol was granted refugee status in Belarus Good riddance. Since a great number of the Jan 6 folks got off with rather light sentences, one has to wonder which is the greater punishment; 6-8 weeks in the slammer vs living in Belarus. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi winsor, Re: a 'country club' incarceration facility Having been in one of these a number of times [for work], I can assure that they are no 'club fed.' They are definitely a prison. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi X-1, Re: we will call it 'Right Side vs. Wrong Side'. As long as you include which side of the road we drive on, I'm in. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Stumpy, Re: Hunter should be given a job in the administration by his dad? Yea, one that he is/was not qualified to hold. Now what family name comes to mind? Hmmmmm . . . . Jerry Baumchen

    Hi John, If one ever flies on an American airlines with a member of the US legislature on board, you will quickly know what 'preferential and deferential treatment' is. BTDT, Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Keith, I seem to remember some old adage that goes: The Truth Hurts Owee, Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Keith, We have one; it is called the GOP. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Sky, And, to stay on thread, some people worry about Ms. Harris becoming President. Well, that idiot was actually President. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Sky, As do I. Sure hope I don't get in trouble for it. Jerry Baumchen PS) And my daughter has Power of Attorney for me. Am I in even bigger trouble? How about my Doctor's Directive? Is that going to get me in hot water, also?

    Hi Bill, I have to admit that I am surprised at how Ukraine is able to keep the Russian army at bay. I can only hope that 'Putin's victory' includes something, somehow to rebuild the Ukraine infrastructure that is now almost non-existent. That is going to take a LOT of money. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Bill, How do you determine a Republican from other politicians? Just watch his tongue as he speaks; it is forked. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Joe, From your link: The minister said last week that Slovakia is willing to give the S-300 to Ukraine if and when it gets a proper replacement. If NATO ( and the US is a part of NATO ) is willing to give these unmarked arms to Ukraine, then why in the world can we ( NATO ) not give them unmarked aircraft. Also, from your link: Russia has warned against any shipments of advanced air defences to Ukraine and has warned it may target Western arms supplies. Since we are giving a lot of arms to Ukraine, I wonder just where Putin's line in the sand really is. Just what does Putin consider advanced air defences? It is obvious to me that the might of the Russian army is really not much. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi folks, I think that this horse had died. It is not possible to inflict any additional punishment. Let's move on. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi folks, Probably no serial numbers on these either: Raid of Salem home turns up what feds suspect is largest ghost gun manufacturing operation found in state - oregonlive.com Re: running a “massive” ghost gun operation from the basement of his mother’s house I'm sure that she had no idea.

    Hi Chuck, Re: the verb, not the title Yet, you used it not as a verb but as a noun. Re: If you think he's foolish, so be it. I would prefer that you not put words into my mouth. Re: You guys can pee on the parade all you want. I am definitely not trying to do that. Andy & Luke are very gifted skydivers with an insane amount of experience. I think that if anyone can pull this off, these two can. I wish them well. I just do not like the term 'engineer' being tossed around willy nilly. Some of us worked very hard for that title.

    Hi Keith, I think a lot of us ( including me ) are wasting a lot of time discussing this. 'I want my hour back.' Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Chuck, Re: Luke is a meticulous engineer What engineering specialty did he get his degree in? Jerry Baumchen
