Re: There will be a bloodbath if Trump loses in November

I would be more concerned about a "christian nationalist" uprising than a Trump-inspired one. Sure, Trump has his supporters (and even rabid ones), but the best way to stir people to action is to use religion as an excuse for (or even more a call for) the excesses--it's been that way throughout hist...

Re: Fani Willis can continue

BP--for an alternative perspective, I still maintain that no one (or very few persons) in government want these Trump cases to go to trial and verdict as they realize they can face the same thing for their peccadilloes (and few policians don't have those skeletons in their closets). After reading th...

Andy--I think it's more about appearances; just as a boss should not have a "romantic relationship" with a direct report, DA should not have a relationship with someone who (s)he supervises, approves payments for, approves expenses for... Even if there is nothing inappropriate, it still should not b...

Re: Watching SOTU

Give you a hint; it's not the SOTU.
I think he'll take back his crown soon enough. Just give him time, it'll happen.
Give him time--he won't disappoint. :lol:

Re: Watching SOTU

That's pretty funny; a friend of mine had a last name which sounded quite similar to a polite (more or less) euphemism for intercourse of the sexual kind; he gave each of his kids the middle name of the town where they were conceived, so it would be something like William Vail Screw--he said they'd ...

Re: The Oscars

He looked a bit out of it to me when he came onstage--but then he always looks like that; part of the image he is trying to project I guess (Nicholson did it better IMHO). It wouldn't have surprised me if he just ignored (or missed) the teleprompter as it made little sense to read the winner without...

Re: The Oscars

Re Pacino's gaffe, I saw this Oscars producer Molly McNearney told Variety in an interview after the telecast that “it was a creative decision” to have Pacino jump straight to the winner. “By the time you get to the end of the show, you’ve seen all 10 best picture clip packages,” McNearney said. “Pe...

Re: Watching SOTU

I have to say I am pleasantly surprised that even the republicans (at least the ones speaking out) were not happy with Britt's speech; I honestly thought that it would play well with the party that takes Trump seriously (since they enjoy being manipulated), but that doesn't seem to be the case. I gu...

The Oscars

Did anyone else watch; it was a pretty blah show, punctuated by a few silly musical numbers (like I am Ken with Ryan Gosling running though the audience), and a big gaffe by Al Pacino neglecting to read the Best Picture nominees and only announcing the winner--sadly, I think the man's mind is going ...

Re: Nick of time

The sad thing is that she's only in her 60s; if she has had plastic surgery (and it looks likely), I imagine she got the best and still wound up with these results. A good argument for aging gracefully (or at least more gracefully than from botched surgery).

Scooter--I tend to agree with you re his behavior a an actor; my only concern would be if he acted recklessly when handling the pistol; even if you are sure it is not loaded, that is no reason to point it at people of dry fire it (i recall years ago one of the posters here killed his dog while dry f...

[aybe we should just leave off the criticism and encourage TFG to pick her as VP. Be careful what you wish for--she's a lot smarter than Trump (who isn't) and can only help his ticket. And seeing the overly dramatic presentation she mad, she's also shameless, which will play well with the base. I'd...
