Chumbolones
-
When I was a young reporter, before getting on the elevators to head up to the the newsroom, I’d take a minute to study the lobby of the great newspaper building where I worked.
It was as if I were wandering through some ancient, gothic museum dedicated to the stern Anglo-Saxon gods. There were clues to be found there, carved in ancient script upon the walls,like this one from a Lord Macaulay:
“Where there is a free press, the governors must live in constant awe of the opinions of the governed.”
But take a minute and look around you now. Does it seem as if these governors are living in constant awe of our opinions of them?
No, but you can dream. The problem is that living in a dream and fantasy land is the act of a madman who is living breathily in a glass menagerie fantasy.
Such dreams are for Chumbolones. You are not Chumbolones. And just by reading this, you’ve declared yourself to be a member of the “No Chumbolone” Nation.
But that was years ago. I was a young husband and father. I must have been in some other country with strange customs and strange people.
The nation I grew up in would not have tolerated an invasion by millions upon millions of illegal migrants, young men alone of military age coming across the non-existent borders to take what they wanted while demanding money.
The land I grew up in would not have allowed the president and his federal police to portray families as potential domestic terrorists simply because they dared question the state’s role in politically indoctrinating their children at the government schools.
And in that country where I grew up would not tolerate a president and his family taking foreign payments, in effect being a paid foreign agent of our greatest adversary.
China is determined to push us off the world map and all Joe Biden and his many defenders in corporate legacy media shout “lies” about the U.S. Congressional Oversight demanded by The Constitution they say they revere.
The country I grew up in did not rush eagerly to be branded as Chumbolones (idiots, or fools) or to have the corporate legacy media cement their status as residents of Chumbolone Nation, i.e., a nation of idiots and/or fools.

I am still trying to figure out how President Biden has been so accommodating to China during his term.
I think that mainland China is wondering the same thing. LOL

Wonder not.
He was bought and paid for. And being an "honest" politician, he stayed bought.

That doesn't answer the question. LOL
I would say that China is in much worse shape now than when President Biden was elected.

I don't think people here will disagree.
But, is it because of Biden?

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

Biden certainly does live rent free in your mind, doesn’t he?

No, but I do believe he's a bit dirtier than the average pol.

Just imagine how much worse it would be without Mr. Biden on the payroll.

Well, I suppose it depends on how much power a person believes the president has to influence US policy. LOL
You guys know my thoughts on this economically - I dont think that the president has as much influence as people say. Foreign policy, I think they do have a bit more power in this area.
But it is really just shows the politic divide.
President Trump does something good during his term
pro Trump - happened BECAUSE of him
anti Trump - happened DESPITE himPresident Biden does something good during his term
pro Biden - happened BECAUSE of him
anti Biden - happened DESPITE himI think it is good that we have these (mainly LOL) civil politic debate here on this forum. One of the reasons I like it so much. But, we all show are biases here also.
During President Trump's term, the unemployment rate could have dropped to 0%, inflation to 0%, salaries increased 10% per year, and some people would have still complained.
