I guess I can only speak for myself and my wife…but during our work careers (which were in very different fields), we didn’t talk about our jobs with each other much at home.
Justice Alito's home flew flag upside down after Trump's 'Stop the Steal' claims, report says
- Thread starter cigaretteman
- Start date
So when you asked your wife about her day, she never said, "Oh, I supported a coup for a couple of hours." I mean ofc she never said anything this absurd. Yet here we are. Alito wants us all to believe that this very thing happened.
It's the same argument as Thomas' wife. Somehow, these two couples have stayed married for god knows how long and they never discuss politics/work.
Why does something that allegedly happened a few years back trigger you so?
I was just echoing your desire to jump down a rabbit hole and assign blame to some deep state cabal under the “organized left”.
See how silly my conspiracy theory sounds? Now go back and re-read what you proposed.
You are desperately trying to come up with a theory as to why Alito receives so much scorn and abuse.
Perhaps the simplest explanation is that he’s a POS and lives his personal and professional life being aggrieved and trying to own the libs? Not everything is a conspiracy, darling - or a smear campaign to besmirch his fine character.
His character largely speaks for itself.
OMG Huey. It was not related to the riot on 1/6.
Seriously go google “brain food” and immediately adjust your diet. I hope it helps.
I’m not desperate by any means…but the fanatics who’ve had it out for him since he happened to write the majority opinion on RvW are absolutely desperate.
Tell me…what makes you an expert on his character?
If you’ll re-read my post I did say that I thought it was an ill advised reaction to the vulgar language in the signs the neighbor put up that pointed in the Alito’s direction. She had to know it would be used against her spouse.
Alito’s judgement has been called into question long before Dobbs. Again: this isn’t a recent thing.
Does 2010 and his “not true” moment at Obama’s State of the Union in 2010 ring a bell? After being (rightly) called out on Citizen’s United?
Do I need to be a character expert to see a grouchy old man reacting to a changing world he doesn’t care for? He’s a freaking curmudgeon who has a lifetime appointment to the highest court in the land - and doesn’t seem to give a F about the optics about his personal opinions.
That’s a cause for concern.
LOL what a pathetic, lemming you are.
They killed nobody, however the Capitol Gestapo ambushed and murdered an unarmed female patriot
No attempted coup took place, put down the liberal's guide to nonsense talking points.
Taking tons of money from Billionaires as well, nothing to see here. JFC
Cons in this thread are proving that at least a decent chunk are really ****ing dumb
Then why was the flag upside down? How does it stick it to the libs to fly the flag upside down if not for the signal MAGAts used to support the coup?
Why do you believe that it was in response to vulgar language? It is after, the 2nd excuse they used.
She actually believes some bullshit story Alito made up
You would think there would be pictures of said vulgar signs...I wonder why there aren't
It is likely both.
And frankly, it’s an assumption by almost any reasonable person. It’s not as if this would happen without a conversation and agreement between husband and wife. And given that part of his story is demonstrably false, smart money says the rest of it is.
So you do believe responding to the neighbors alleged vulgar signs is the reason the flag was flown upside down?
Per the sources I’ve seen it’s gone on for a while and the neighbors got increasingly vulgar.
Huey, it was to respond to the signs put up by the neighbor. Not some signal to a bunch of total fools wearing Buffalo headdresses from a souvenir shop - 11 days later.
Remember this is over three years ago. None of you lefties have raised any questions as to why this is just now a story…and you won’t either.
I’m not going to jump on that bandwagon other than to say if she hadn’t joined the ragtags she’d still be alive.
FAFO Exhibit A.
So you and your wife discuss everything? That’s your business and your life and good for you.
Other strong marriages don’t have to function in that manner - and many don’t.
And it just "happened" to be on the 1/6 timeframe....
His excuse here is a stretch.
Like when your underage kids came home smelling like alcohol and "someone else just spilled on them"....
I imagine those are long gone - after 31/2 years - and they weren’t helpful to the group who took a grainy photo of a flag and held it until it was useful.
