...Besides, thinking about the Napoleonic Empire is where it's at!

Like action, adventure, rogues, and outlaws? Like anti-heroes, femme fatales, mysteries and thrillers?
I wrote a book with them. Outlaw’s Shadow: A Sherwood Noir. Robin Hood’s evil counterpart, Guy of Gisbourne, is the main character. Feel free to give it a look: https://read.amazon.com/kp/embed?asi...E2PKBNJFH76GQP

Have you tried cold showers or being locked in a room with hungry lions?

The lion thing, but not the cold showers. The lions really did like their Lion Chow though. Originally Posted by MajorHoy

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is no anti-vaxxer.
Why are they calling him an anti-vaxxer? Robert F. Kennedy Jr. himself has said that he is not an anti-vaxxer. He just wants "safe vaccines", meaning vaccines proven safe.
“It’s that the media will not report what I say,” he says. “They call me an anti-vaxxer. I’ve never been an anti-vaxxer on any vaccine. I was trying to get mercury out of fish for 40 years and nobody called me anti-fish. I want safe vaccines. I want good science. I want to have vaccines that are tested against placebos like every other medicine, prior [to] licensure. I think most people would agree with that. I tell it to every reporter like you and you won’t report it.”

"Safe vaccines" is the "forced bussing" of the anti-vaxxer movement.
Dark does not mean deep.

In other words, he claims that he only wants what's already happening, while denying that it's happening. Originally Posted by Zauriel

True, since some of them are working in the Biden administration. Caroline Kennedy is the US ambassador to Australia. Joe Kennedy III is the US special envoy to Ireland. Originally Posted by Kirby101

You think, just maybe, they know something about him? Or do you dismiss every one else in a family that has given so much to this country. Originally Posted by Zauriel

RFK Jr. is building a presidential campaign around conspiracy theories
And now he isn't even running as a Democrat. His Father and Uncles are turning over in their graves.There came a time when the Old Gods died! The Brave died with the Cunning!

Honest union members, informed business men, responsible labor leaders, law enforcement officers, and the general public – all of these will suffer as the result of this bill’s death in the House of Representatives.
Those who voted against this bill, and who lobbied for its defeat, must bear a heavy responsibility during the coming months when racketeering and gangsterism in the labor movement continue unchecked. I cannot believe that the American people will accept some technical or procedural argument offered by way of excuse for the defeat of a bill which would have put Mr. Hoffa and his ilk out of business.
