My high school was number 1 in the state, so all the others were losers.

It was the first Nixon administration, he defeated Hubert Humphrey.

...and that State was the only one to vote against him in the next election, which could be used to suggest that a good education does add some value.

George McGovern was a good man, a combat pilot flew a B24 in WWII.

Both parties had reasonably good, experienced and qualified candidates.

Although Mr. Nixon's goodness faded somewhat.

You know, the guy is sixty.

Doesn't look a day over 75.

Yeah he’s only six months older than Harris. Looks decades older.

It's the PTSD he talked about.

Iraq could be a dangerous and violent place...

"I'm proud of that work because, look, I was the football coach," he said.

No, Gov Walz. You were not THE coach. You were AN assistant coach.

Maybe she picked him because he reminds her of Joe.

[George K]

He never explicitly says we had IVF, but it's certainly implied.

Uh, no Governor. You did NOT have children through IVF.

[George K]

Update on the lies that Tim Walz has told:

• Being an Afghan veteran
• Being a command sgt major
• Conceiving his children through IVF
• Knowing his unit was being deployed
• Carrying weapons into war
• Being a head football coach
• Lying about being deaf to get out of a DUI

I'm just picking one and looking into it, where did Walz say he was a head football coach? He was a coach of a football team. Does this mean the rest of your list is made up? BTW don't forget Trump had over 30,000 documented lies between 2017-2021. That's a lot of bullet points.

[jon-nyc]

I can imagine saying IVF is personal to you because you had fertility challenges so you relate to others that do too. Did he ever claim his kids were the result of IVF?

[89th]

Plus if he said IVF but really did IUI, most people don't know what IUI is but know what IVF is. IUI is like the JV version of IVF btw. Most couples who do IVF usually do a round or two of IUI first.

@jon-nyc said in It's Walz:

Did he ever claim his kids were the result of IVF?

No, but he and his wife did undergo fertility treatments and he brought it up in the context of IVF. It's sorta like saying you carried a weapon of war (when you didn't go to war). The words aren't there, but the implication is. That's the definition of weasely.

And the DNC still introduced him as Command Sgt Major the other day.

[Jolly]

Hoo-ah!

@jon-nyc said in It's Walz:

Did he ever claim his kids were the result of IVF?

Oops. Yes he did.

In April, the Tim Walz for Governor campaign office mailed out a fund-raising letter in an envelope that read: “My wife and I used I.V.F. to start a family.’’

[Jolly]

You've got more patience than I.

AFAIK, he never did. But, just like the other weasely things, he said he "coached a football team." Campaign literature showing "Coach Walz."

He was a volunteer, unpaid, coach.

Again, what he said was not really a lie, but the impression....
