Eh up TimMornin' c_v.
Question: when do you sleep?!
Hi c_v,Converting the garage into a workshop where I intend to get even more creative. Will be largely based on up cycling / re-purposing scrap timber, adding value etc.
Makes perfect sense to me - To win the war you just get rid of weapons. Whose weapons get got rid and who gets to win is another question.These two intellectual gargantuans lay out their strategy for defeating Covid. Their master plan is not to wear a mask. Sounds like something out of yer Orange Man's playbook
Pat,. . . He is the sort of rascal who will try every trick in the book to WIN.
I do so enjoy a good spatPat,
Your dislike of Trump is so great that you refuse to even look at the mountains of evidence that the election was clearly rigged. You give whole new meaning to the term 'confirmation bias'! Clearly, you haven't watched a single video or clicked on a single link in this thread. If you had, you couldn't possibly hold the view you express here. I wouldn't mind but for the fact that democracy is at stake and I'm genuinely shocked that members of this forum are so blasé about that and don't appear to think it matters. Seriously, at the very least, please, please take the allegations seriously and consider them with an open mind. Then ask yourself if the price of getting rid of Trump is really worth destroying democracy? If your answer to that is 'yes' then, when the inevitable carnage ensues, there'll be no use crying: 'that's unfair, that's undemocratic'. It'll be too late, once democracy is cast aside, there'll be no getting it back (in our lifetimes, at least), all because when it really mattered you - and millions like you - turned a blind eye, put your fingers in your ears and allowed it to happen.
Tim.
Pat,I am of course not an American Professor of law but then I doubt you are either. So I have to go on the judgements of the US courts, which is not unreasonable. I see 6 out of the 9 on The Supreme Court are Conservatives with 3 of the Liberal persuasion. Even so it was an unanimous decision 9 to 0 that Trump has not got a case. Good enough for me and I feel it should also be for other average sorts of people .
My attention span is indeed too short to wade through the plethora of posturings and outright lies of Trump's highly paid legal team who are no doubt carrying out the orders of their paymaster.
Reality and Justice have at last caught up with him. His billions will no doubt cushion his disappointment somewhat................
He has had huge coverage within the Democratic system to try and BS his way through but in fact has been shot down in flames at every turn.
OK ?
Usually Tim you have shown great insight but are somewhat short of the mark on this issue, it seems.
Clearly, you've not looked at anything posted to this thread either, cant'? Another member who appears not to care two hoots about democracy. Extraordinary!I do so enjoy a good spat
There is considerable humour in the matter of thresholds and in pertickler the one where opinion and shoddily researched /skewed data somehow becomes "evidence" and then that evidence becomes "proof". When one has convinced oneself all that remains is the simple task of convincing others. Life imitates art and belief trumps reality - not yet sure what trumps Trump as yet but no doubt history is getting ready to give us all a good spanking....and then there's Brexit and it's rich vein of absurdity.
You're quite wrong - it's precisely because I HAVE indeed been trawling through everything. As I said, thresholds. As for democracy: I do care a hoot but two would be a stretch. I'm not enamoured of any system, especially ones which lends themselves to unpunished abuse. If corruption and deceit in government were rewarded by a public firing squad I might be more enthusiastic. As it is, all I see are mostly self-serving individuals of exceptional venality putting themselves forward as principled representatives of the electorate when their real agenda is lining their own pockets and enjoying the world's biggest pissing race.Clearly, you've not looked at anything posted to this thread either, cant'?
