    I've followed Yeonmi Park on YouTube for a long time now. She has also written books, given Ted talks, many lectures, and is thoroughly believed by those people whose opinions matter on the issue of North Korea. As for those taking shots at Fox News, you seriously need to open your minds more - Park can see where America is heading better than most, because she's experienced what it's like to be where we are headed in this country. Some of you won't understand that until it's too late.

    @aqua-letifer said in It's a "Washington Fudge.": @klaus said in It's a "Washington Fudge.": @george-k said: The thing that annoys the hell out of me with regard to Biden is what a blowhard he is. Granted, one can have reasonable disagreements on public policy, the economy, national security, whatever.... But this guy loves nothing more than the sound of his own voice. One need only look at some of the hearings in Congress where he's participated. I recall one instance (can't remember the specific hearing...9/11 perhaps?), in which the questioner was allowed 10 minutes with the witness. Biden spoke for 7 minutes before he asked his first question. Then, he complained that he didn't have enough time to "pursue his line of questioning." This. I'm sorry guys, but in context to the guy who was just in there, this is about the funniest thing I ever heard. That’s what she said.

    I'm all for reducing emissions of all sorts. But not in a kneejerk reaction to 'mights' and 'ifs'.

    If there are still classified evidence of the 9/11 event, indeed they should be declassified and made public.

    Okay that's pretty cool. I have an 8-or-so-year-old Air just collecting dust here that I might try this on just for kicks.

    @jolly said in 233: https://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/565814-hundreds-of-staffers-at-two-san-francisco-hospitals-test-positive Wow… So much BS in one article. Let me paraphrase a few items “yes, breakthroughs are occurring, but very few cases are severe”. Great. Most cases among unvaccinated aren’t severe, either. How about we get some actual numbers? “breakthroughs are still very rare! 160,000,000 vaccinated and only 120,000 breakthrough cases” is about the worst statistical analysis I’ve seen. Give people the facts. Real facts, real numbers. Every obfuscation or generality given just makes the hesitant doubt you more.

    Big time rabbit hole… I’ve gone down it a few times in the past. I also enjoy reaction videos from sports moments or even public disasters. I’m fascinated with how people respond in such situations!

    If I'm not mistaken, the Finn was once asked was it hard to kill a man. He said it was. Men tended to run and jump about.

    @axtremus said in When Helping People, Be Humble About It: Nah, that's asking for too much. If you help people and feel like bragging about it anyway, I'd say go ahead. I am not going to dissuade a braggart from helping others just because he's braggart. Lots of assistance to others are motivated by PR considerations, beliefs in karma, and/or tax benefits. So what? Go ahead and help anyway. Even more democrat Use someone else's money to help people and take credit.

    The ones that are caught might get tested. The ones that don't, never get tested.
