All purpose news and politics thread part VI: This Is Not The Time For Posing

He shouldn't care what the Qpublicans think, so long as the rest of the country is on his side.

Biden does need to get out ahead of it, though, and remind the country that gas is expensive because Russia and what they're doing to an innocent country

The problem is, I think he does care, given his insistence on bipartisanship. I could be wrong, I’d love to be wrong, but that’s my suspicion.

I used to say this about Obama and it applies to Biden as well: He could cure cancer tomorrow and the chyron on FOX News the next day would read: Biden Takes Jobs Away From Cancer Researchers.

The same could also be said when a Socialcrat is in office. Even when the person in office does wrong MSNBC, CNN, NBC ABC try to cover up for them. See Anderson Cooper covering for Biden at the town hall meeting.

Does it hurt to be wrong all the time?

Interesting results from googling Socialcrat.

Name calling is all the Right has. They have no workable agenda that will do any good for anyone but the Rich.

[Kirby101]

And those on the Right still pine for this guy. Even though everything he touches is an abject failure.

Mexican smuggling gangs have sawed through new segments of border wall 3,272 times over the past three years, according to unpublished U.S. Customs and Border Protection maintenance records obtained by The Washington Post under the Freedom of Information Act.

Even more amusing is the fact that the roads created to build and maintain that idiotic wall provide easier travel into the country - the wall actually made our border LESS secure than it was before.

On the other hand, have you ever considered that one of the reasons for America’s success in the world is an emphasis on wealth creation, and a system that uses greed as an incentive to maximise that wealth?

That maybe there is ultimately some advantages to having a right wing as well as a left wing to balance it?

Put it this way…although there are always a great deal of posts about various injustices in the US here, there’s no real appetite for the regular posters here to emigrate to other countries!

America was never so strong as when we taxed the wealthy and helped the middle class.

What we have now is hollowing out America from under. Our income inequity will destroy us.

But are you really not aware that “American privilege” exists similar to “White Privilege”?

That is: anyone born American is lucky and has through that luck has on average a better life than might be expected if he or she was born Chinese, Russian, Indian, Pakistani, Nigerian, etc, etc

And that one of the reasons for that better overall expectation is that the overall system you have works to your advantage?

With respected media like the New York Times or "Meet The Press" more and more reporting GOP talking points without fact checking them, and the power of right wing media like FoxNews, the country has not been on his side and it won't be.
