Kamala Harris botches The Pledge of Allegiance on the Senate Floor.
- Thread starter biggreydogs
- Start date
Well this is huge news, NOT. I am 73, we said the pledge of allegiance every morning in our Des Moines grade school. I havent had to say it much since then and probably once or twice in the last 20 years.
And right now I forget the words that start the 2nd stanza. People forget all the time.
You are worried about this rather than all the swamp shit prez dumster trump had in his first cabinet and administration and all his lies. Plus The Dumpster stood up in front of the nation and talked crap pure crap about Covid from day 1 until the end of his term and included some unknown disturbing thing about injecting bleach into people.
REally!!!!!
I love how @libbity bibbity shows up to this thread a month later to bring nothing additive to the conversation but laughing emojis.
I think the fact that you guys have no problem with it really shows your hypocrisy. If Trump had done it you’d all be calling him an idiot. Don’t deny it. Kamala really is an idiot.I love how @libbity bibbity shows up to this thread a month later to bring nothing additive to the conversation but laughing emojis.
Let’s break this down, shall we?
“You guys” – I directed my response to a specific poster, yet you responded as if addressing a collective, assuming a homogeneous group that shares identical opinions. That’s a lazy generalization.
“If Trump had done it” – Trump has done it, and yes, he’s an idiot. So your hypothetical is irrelevant.
“Kamala is an idiot” – I’ve never claimed otherwise. Your assumption that I’d defend her exposes your own bias more than it does mine.
Try engaging with what was actually said rather than arguing against a strawman. Maybe read the entire thread?
They're not able to engage in much meaningful dialog, so it's easier to just point at them and laugh.
Since I'm not a liberal, why did you respond to my post with "you guys?" Then, instead of just owning the mistake, continue down the path?
Might as well add this dipshit to your ignore list too, alaska guy. If you don't suck from the orange teet you're a liberal in these dicksicle's minds (damn I use that word with hesitation). Lord forbid you apply any sort of objective reasoning to a thread. Fvcking dumbass sheep. And ya, I'm looking at you, @JimStarr777 There is no "high road" I'm flat out calling you a dumbass and guess what? I didn't vote for Trump or that buffoon Harris.
Not if you aren’t going to be honest. All your posts are liberal leaning. You can call yourself whatever you want, but actions always speak louder.
I guess we both need to define what it means to be a liberal.
Why don’t you outline some policies or ideologies where you believe I might differ, and we can discuss them? I’ll be upfront...whenever I take one of those online political quizzes, I typically land slightly right of center and am often classified as a Libertarian. However, if Texas required party affiliation for voting, I’d be registered as an Independent.
Additionally, I want to clarify that my personal life tends to be more conservative than my political stance. I don’t believe much of what today’s Evangelical Republicans advocate should be legislated. For instance, as a Christ follower, I don’t believe the Bible should be taught in public schools.
That’s fair.
The thing is, I’m not sure I’ve ever seen you take a conservative position in any conversation on this board, so naturally that comes across to me as liberal. I could say I’m an independent, but my posts don’t suggest that.
That perception has more to do with the fact that, as a lifelong conservative, my biggest frustration is with what today’s so-called “conservatives” have become. From my perspective, the Republican Party has been hijacked by a narcissistic felon who has successfully weaponized Christianity for profit and twisted patriotism into nationalism.
Because of this, it may seem to you that I’m a liberal, but that’s only because my disdain for the MAGA movement happens to align with the liberal perspective. However, our reasons for that disdain are fundamentally different.
If you’ve been around this board as long as I have, you’d know I’m not alone...plenty of former Republicans and moderates have been slapped with the “libtard” label simply for refusing to fall in line with MAGA.
@JimStarr777
For more clarity, I believe in Christ’s teachings; empathy and sympathy toward my fellow man, treating others with dignity and respect, and making a genuine effort to find common ground. And if common ground isn’t possible, then at the very least, I support solutions that ensure equal opportunity for all. For example, freedom of religion gives me the right to worship Christ, but I don’t believe in forcing my faith on others. True religious freedom means allowing others the same rights I claim for myself. How is that not a conservative value?
Lol James if you think "the people " still get to decide. September 2024 should of been a smack to the face that's not happening anymore.
Outside of the fact I voted for a Republican president in every election from 1992 until 2016, I typically support the following:
Pro-Life – I believe in the sanctity of life, but I struggle with the idea of imposing my personal beliefs on others. This is probably the biggest social issue where I find myself at odds with traditional conservative positions.
Strong National Defense – I fully support maintaining a well-funded, prepared military, ensuring our armed forces remain the best in the world, and that veterans receive the benefits they’ve earned. National security is a priority.
Limited Government – I believe in small government and fiscal responsibility, but I strongly disagree with the way Musk's DOGE is currently approaching this. It reminds me of the flawed execution of the Trump/Biden stimulus checks; the concept was sound but the implementation was reckless. I should NOT have received any of those checks.
2A – As a gun owner, I strongly support the right to bear arms. However, I also recognize the need for responsible gun ownership, and I’ve outlined my views in the “pew pew” threads before.
Strong Border Security – I support securing our borders, but not out of fear-mongering or xenophobia. My concern is primarily about resources--ensuring that immigration is structured in a way that does not strain public services and infrastructure--and, to some extent, national security.
Funny thing is, there are many on here from both "teams" that would agree with the above, but politicians and click-bait media can't have us agreeing, that's less power and money for them. People, en masse, are pawns.
EDIT: I did vote for Perot. Just wanted to stay consistent with previously revealed information.
I can hold my own either way 🤣🤣I definitely don't need to walk around with a MAGA beard, red hat and open carry AR-15, though. That's for you dumbfvckers. 🤣🤣
What's the standard laughing emojis, btw? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I do none of those things, but keep projecting. 😉
No worries. I definitely read it. It’s weird…I’ve never seen you argue for any of those things on here.
I'm sorry I let you down. I will strive to do better.
EDIT: You can have fun with this 20 page thread for starters.
