    I don't think anybody ever said President Trump was a devout Christian. And I don't think he ever claimed that, either.

    That's very wrong.

    At least one person said he was sent by God, who clearly hasn't lost His famous sense of humour.

    Obviously, saying HE WAS SENT BY GOD! doesn't belong in the media fellating thread, it deserves a title all of its own.

    Actually, it was said Caligula was sent by God.

    Care to go around the theological bush on that one?

      John Hagee said Hitler was sent by God to help the Jews get to the promised land.

      As we all know, people say unbelievably stupid shit all the time, but I reckon that guy must practice.

        Biden gave a talk about buying additional vaccines in which he twice gets confused and talks about being able to vaccinate 300 Americans. Every news outlet has edited those parts out. The editing is quite jarring too.

              He's absolutely hilarious. I used to tune into these shows after I came back from the pub. I remember thinking he reminded me of a sweaty little bowling ball.

                All through the speech Biden mentions various quantities of doses -- 100 million, 200 million, and so forth. I think any idiot would recognize a simple omission and not conclude that OMG IT'S THE DEMENTIA!!!!!

                From a few corrections inserted between brackets, he actually does it more than once. If you did it, it would be no big deal. If I did it, it would be no big deal. But in Biden, of course, it's OMG DEMENTIA!

                Not for nuttin, his remarks that I have redd from the beginning of his term seem coherent and organized. FWIW. IMO the dementia thing has been falling apart like a cheap suit from the get-go.

                  The correlation is amazing, that the people who always seem to know exactly what Trump was talking about are also the people who know that Biden has dementia whenever Biden speaks!

                    Yeah . . . though I'll be the first to admit that the anti-Trumpers were just as guilty when it came to LEAPING onto the bandwagon.

                      Ella Emhoff Gets a Major Modeling Contract

                      By Vanessa Friedman and Jessica Testa

                      Ella Emhoff, the 21-year-old stepdaughter of Vice President Kamala Harris, became the newest face at IMG Models, one of the world’s most prestigious modeling agencies. Along with Ms. Gorman, who also signed with IMG, the agency works with such famous faces as Karlie Kloss, Alek Wek and Ashley Graham.

                      “It’s not really about shape, size or gender any more,” said Ivan Bart, the president of IMG Models, noting that what brands are attracted to, and what consumers want, is authenticity. “Ella communicates this moment in time. There’s a cheekiness and a joy she exudes.”

                      And, he said, when he saw her at the swearing in, he thought, “Wow, she’s communicating fashion.”

                      Ms. Emhoff’s decision to work with IMG reflects both her own interest in design — she is a senior at Parsons School of Design in New York, where she is studying fine arts with a focus on textiles — and the growing importance of the brand ambassador when it comes to marketing products.

                      It also speaks to the fashion world’s growing embrace of the Biden administration, with its focus on diversity and empathy, after four antagonistic years with the Trump administration. In 2016, some designers publicly stated that they would not dress Melania Trump because of her association with her husband’s policies; now they are once again in Washington’s thrall.

                            Good lord, you extrapolate stuff I never said and never intended,

                            If that is so, then I apologize.

                            ETA: Unless you were commenting on the media bias . . . oh geeeez.

                              https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/2021/01/30/dogs-white-house-questions-major-champ-biden/?arc404=true

                              After a four-year vacancy, the position of DOTUS was filled this week by Major and Champ Biden. When the two German shepherds entered the White House, they brought a great opportunity to dig into the day-to-day doggie logistics in one of the busiest and most powerful households in the world.

                              For instance, who fills the water dish, rubs the bellies and scoops the poop? Can the pups just pop into the Oval Office? And what if one ruins a rug or bites an ambassador?

                              Here are the answers along with a peek into the lives of first dogs.

                              Who actually lets the dogs out?

                              Many first families care for their dogs themselves, longtime White House chief usher Gary J. Walters said in an email. Walters oversaw the residence portion of the house through a slew of first canines, from Lucky Reagan in the 1980s through Barney and Miss Beazley Bush in the 2000s.

                              However, every family is different, and members of the residence staff are ready to step in to help out with as much or as little as the family would like.

                              Barbara and George H.W. Bush were do-it-yourselfers, and the president even bathed the dogs in the residence shower, said historian Jennifer Pickens, author of “Pets at the White House.” The Fords were similar.

                              Betty Ford told Pickens about a wee-hours potty run that went awry. The couple’s golden retriever, Liberty, was days from giving birth to nine puppies and needed to go outside, so she woke up the president at 3 a.m. by licking his face. He dutifully pulled on his bathrobe and slippers and took her out to the South Lawn to do her business.

                              Many, many, other hard-hitting questions are answered in this story.

                              Note: Former President's Trump's lack of dogs is not (explicitly) mentioned.

                              Nor is this:

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

                                The British Heads of State have centuries of inbreeding behind them.

                                What's America's excuse?

                                I was only joking

                                  Was that intended to be ironic?

                                  Nope. I know plenty of Catholics, absolutely plenty, who think their righteousness exempts them from developing social graces. I don't understand why that is. Quite obviously it's unnecessary. How many rape victims have you browbeaten about having an abortion? I'm guessing none, ever.

                                  @aqua-letifer It was that "Love thy neighbor" definitely includes how not to sound like a self-righteous assclown and navigate these issues politely." that struck me as ironic.
