Re: Fani Willis can continue

My own personal bias about the people of Georgia (and Mississippi and Alabama and Louisiana) included a zero expectation that they will be reasonable. Rational? Absolutely they can easily rationalize three things before breakfast.

Re: Watching SOTU

How can it be a lie? The Gentle Lady is an Honorable Senator and a Republican. Honest Don has worked hard since 2016 to remove any taint of deception from the Grand Old Party. Any one who thinks such would lie is just un-American.

Re: Nick of time

I guess I am just demonstrating my membership as a mean old white man. I have always judged that the clothing with Versace labels were exercises in bad taste. I don't think I have ever before seen a picture of the individual responsible for this 'fashion statement"

Re: The Judges Must Have Forgotten to Check Her Nether Regions....

I always get a little chuckle when the finite, ignorant, short-lived person announces they 'know' anything about the infinite, all-knowing, all-powerful. beyond time, manifestation of the divine creator of the universe. We don't even know what we don't know.

But it is fun to pretend.

Well, according to the bible (Galatians 3:27-28) There is no longer Jew or Greek, there is no longer slave or free, there is no longer male and female; for all of you are one in Christ Jesus.

Re: Primary Election Day

Note he has already been the peoples's choice for Lt Governor. Here in Dele where the GOP shot itself in the foot in a a primary and rejected the incumbant Senator because he was not 'pure' enough and nominated a carpet-bagger witch. Yes Really.

Big, (may I call you by your first name?) I will attempt to answer your question. Simple two words.

Stupid. Ignorant.

See the entry above for the Miss Teen USA 2007. These two words seem to be almost incomprehensible to many people.

Yes, that percentage is very small. In my daily life I do not deal with thousands, or millions or even hundreds.

BB, your faith in a binary system is remarkable. Have you no acquaintance or friend who has spent a decade or so working in a maternity/delivery room? It is assigned.
