We shouldn't have been there (something Dennis still won't admit) because we were white boots marching in a yellow land trying to save Vietnam from the Vietnamese.

The old domino theory was not that once some enemy took one country they would take the next one. It was that once one country adopted communism, the next one would. Somehow many seemed to believe communism and USSR were the same thing. This wasn't about saving people from themselves, it was about capitalists, afraid of uprisings by the people fearfully trying to protect their investments.

No princess you are once again completely WRONG, completely out of your mind and pretending you have any clue as to what the hell you are talking about. You on the Left frequently tell us something was not posted specifically to us just as you are doing with me right now. But of course you KNOW or should know everything posted here on the entire UHH forum is posted for everyone as in a free for all. Everyone has a perfect right to interject their feelings just as if the content was posted for them personally. You know that but now are trying to change the rules of the game. You are doing your best to make believe only certain people get to read and then comment on your posts.

"Brain dead and pull the plug", you tell us about me. Why is that princess? You know I have a college degree, have done things you will never have the skill set to accomplish nor would your pussified cowardly heart allow you to put yourself in harms way for others. You have never done that and never will. We all know that. Tell us one thing you bravely did in your entire life where you put others lives in any way ahead of your own.

You continue to put down my employment skills but only because you could never do any of the jobs I have done, not one of them. You don't have the brain skills, basically you are not smart enough, not personable enough nor do you CARE enough to work with other people. That comes out in almost every one of your piss poor pathetic posts. You personally are the poster child of Me Too.

You don't know if I was a cop or what type of cop I was, you tell us. Of course you do. You have been telling members here I was a crooked cop and a crooked corrupt correctional officer for years now. How on earth do you forget those words so easily? Are you getting too old little girl, pink lace panties maybe too tight for you, can't handle the pressure of anybody speaking out against your anti American, pro Communist comments perhaps. 🤔

Isn't it time for you to grow up little princess? Time to face the real world, time to grow a pair (Yes I know, don't ask me how that impossibility could take place) time to realize you are the one who is a failure in life, a perhaps retired light bulb changer in a world where lifetime type bulbs are now the norm. Damn!!!!! That must be a frightening world you live in.

You are free to read and attempt to understand any post here addressed to anyone, But if I address a post to member "A" explaining that I think their IQ is a negative number, for you to read that and then accuse me of saying your IQ is a negative number, is insanity on your part, and may actually prove the point that you are accusing me of making. You're retired, why not see if your local community college has a course in bone head logic? No one needs to know you are taking it, and you might even learn something. Glad I could help.

What you say may be true and if it is then other than venting and trolling this site is a waste of time isn’t it. Unfortunately, that thinking seems to be pervasive in the press, populace and into the furthest reaches of our government. Gridlock and impasse anyone?


I'm sorry, this isn't on you, but I wasn't really able to follow the point you were trying to make. I guess you can try again, or you can decide that I'm just too dumb for it to be worth your time. Either way, it's your choice. I seem to be getting way more wordy than is called for so I may pause and regroup anyway.

It is true that either side can leverage their position with pretrial motions but the reasons cited like a witness may die can be handles by deposition if granted by the court and properly noticing the other side (since the accused has the right to confront and cross examine their accusers). In the deposition the deposed would have to produce any documents or other physical evidence ( these can be exceptions to the hearsay rule). The prosecutor has volumes where his case is put together in the order he will present it so his memory waning would probable not be good cause. In a case like this if the issues are complex and discovery isn’t complete or their are constitutional issues tied to a motion I would think to avoid further appeals, if the defendant waives his right to a speedy trial, the court should err on the side of the defendant. Of course, I am not an attorney and if I am way off base Bazo will let me know.

No one is taking any of Trumps rights by taking it to SCOTUS. There isn't a chance in hell that the final decision wasn't going to be theirs. No matter what the appeals court were to decide, it was going to go to SCOTUS. The delay that this would give trump is not a right or something that is being taken away from him. If there are legitimate reasons that Trump should be given more time, they can be considered, but the delay that the appeals court would have added is not amongst his rights. If he needs more time to prepare, and has a right to it, he needs to make that case.

I was questioning NP's logic in evidently supporting Smith's desire to do an end run around the appeals court. The wheels of justice move slowly from time to time but why not let the process run its course?


There are special provisions that specifically allow this in these situations, but in the end we disagree and there will probably be much more important issues for us to fight about than this. There is no argument I could make that would change your mind. To insult you or remark about your motives or comment on your intelligence would all be out of line. Disagreeing with me doesn't call for any of them. You are not required to agree with me, and all it really says about you is that you don't agree with me. I shouldn't have to explain all that, and I'm sure that you didn't require it, but I wanted to separate myself from how things so often go on this site. I really do have many questions I'd like to ask you, bet we're not going to resolve them here. I think it's unfortunate that people stake out territory and no amount of facts will sway them, but we probably all do that. I feel you are very biased, but most likely when you look my direction, you feel the same about me, so you and I simply can't resolve this.

First off the Epoch Times is no less reliable than the New York Times, so there is that. Your linked article does not discuss the topic at hand, there is that as well. Lastly although it may be true that the federal government does not directly give the migrants Visa cards with varying amounts of prepaid credit it looks as if they may be getting them from the NGOs that DHS is funneling money to through the Disaster Relief Fund.


More accurate would have been "The EPOCH Times is almost totally bullshit" All, totally, none, never, can all be true, but rarely are. If I were to say "Absolutely all Blurry cares about is his bottom line" I would probably be wrong. I I say "Mostly all Blurry cares about is his bottom line" I believe that would be true, and maybe even an understatement.

First off little princess and getting smaller by the moment in this thread, what on earth would you know about being a Patriot? Your words, right now, are completely opposite from your feelings during the Vietnam War. You wanted America to have nothing to do with that fight, that attempt to stop Communism BEFORE Communism hit America's shores. You must remember, right, standing in the streets protesting AGAINST America and American interests, wanting America to pull out of Vietnam and actually hoping North Vietnam, the Communist aggressor would win.

So what tune are you singing for us now? Are you changing your mind OR just being contrary because Blurry is on the Conservative side showing some concern about America, about Americans? You had no concern when your hero, POS Biden literally invited and allowed Millions of ILLEGAL ALIENS to just walk across our Southern border. Nobody has any idea who came across, who is mingling amount Americans now, most likely terrorists, people who hate America, numerous Chinese I am told. Where is the concern for America on that front? You have never once showed any concern for America in your life so why pretend now? Where is the concern for homeless veterans over illegal aliens? Tell us where the jobs are for these Millions of illegal aliens. Why aren't they working these supposedly jobs that only illegal aliens would want?

Communism is a concept, and/or a belief, and'or a philosophy. Not a physical enemy. These things cannot be stopped with bullets or bombs. There is no way I can explain that to you in a way you would understand. Maybe another way of attempting to explain it would be Trump could be stopped by a bullet (I'm in no way promoting such a thing) Trumpism cannot.

Scoot, you haven't posted anything factual, including a source. I have only quoted the information you gave in your opening opinion. So, just more of your BS and NO SOURCING (as per usual), unless you're using that far right Republican rag "Republican Daily" as your source.
John
Here you said I did not post the source then you admitted I did post the source. Which is it? Notice how I answered you without demeaning your intelligence?


To demean his intelligence would be a really heavy lift. Still, I respect your attempt to stay on the high road, more of us should probably do that.

Is it true that you only play here in an attempt to make other conservatives look better in comparison? It may be working. Too bad that better is not the same as good. Better than really really awful, is awful, which is a long ways from good.

The logic was real. Trying to get it to play in the attic was the attempt. The failure was probably my attempt at levity which may have been even worse than the one you just made.

princess you really need to pay more attention to your own reading comprehension. It just plain sucks. How in the hell could you accidentally post it to me??? This is a public forum. Whatever you posted goes to ALL of us, to EVERYONE. Did you really not know that little tidbit of information? You should have little girl. Maybe you have just been thinking of Christmas presents coming up for you. I am sure you have new dresses coming, probably some new make up to impress those Special Left Wingers on your list, maybe new undies. Who knows?

But here's the thing. No matter who you posted to I read it just as if it was posted to me. Alleged pharmacist you tell us. Hmmmmm, are you talking about wilpharm? I don't think he is an alleged pharmacist, probably a real pharmacist. What are you, an alleged light bulb changer at a local hospital? Do you hold the bulb and 6 Left Wingers turn the ladder? Remember, righty righty-lefty loosey.

The interesting thing is after you posted your, Me too, Me too, BS it is just as I predicted. Those on the Left felt the need to jump in with their own Me too versions. The Left Wing lemmings following along. Now where the hell is a convenient cliff when you need one?

You reading as though it were posted to you is your problem, and I don't have the training to help you with that.

I keep wondering when someone will finally realize you are brain dead and pull the plug. I don't know if you were a cop, or what type of a cop you were. I don't know if you were a screw, or an inmate, and what type of either you may have been. I do know what sort of a person you are, and it sickens me. Reply if you wish, but I've already wasted way over my quota of time set aside for you on you, and am unlikely to reply. I will focus my time on those still living.

We know he would have been in Lindbergh's club and would have supported Chamberlain.

Blurry doesn't understand that "what's in it for me" are not the words of a patriot.

Is this not an EU problem? How is it that many of the EU countries do not meet their military spending commitments to the NATO agreement and when problems arise they look to the US to take the lead and bulk of the financing... In case you have not noticed the US is broke, actually bankrupt. This is not a US problem it is an EU problem and it is long past time that you turn to the US taxpayers to handle your problems.


What heartbreak in WWII might have been saved if people such as yourself hadn't kept us out until Pearl Harbor. "America First" You and Lindbergh, and maybe Chamberlain, until the wheels fall off. Just what would have to happen for you to believe that maybe Russia's aggression was our concern? If we wait till they are on our shores, it will be much more expensive, and it may be too late, and you are younger than I so you will have to live with it, and good luck with your retirement.
