POG Politics Thread Version 3
Come on in! Since Dustin is taking his ball and going home, it's time to start a new politics thread.
If you have to arrest people to keep them from talking about the harm you're causing, you are not winning the goodness contest.
If there was international law, we would have violated it. There is no international law, though, because there is no true hegemony. We tried to make it happen after the USSR fell, but the Bush II neocons ruined it.
What there is, and will always be, is precedent. Conservatives used to understand that. Maybe they've given in to leftist fatalism (see Mark's musky savior) and are now simply "smoke em of you got em".
Morning john article today quotes senate majority leader Thune (R-SD) lamenting that POTUS even needs to notify Congress when abducting a foreign head of state.
Yikes.
US was invaded ten years ago when Russia took over Facebook. They captured half our nation and vassalized our state without stepping foot onto our soil.
Otherwise all of our threats are to "interests abroad", but since we are an epicenter of world commerce we have a lot of long tails flicking around the room.
and you wonder why nobody ever responds to this cute little alt account you made...
Happy Jan 6 to all who celebrate!
Greatest day in our nations history, people are saying
I'm celibrating with a visit to Taco Bell.
And my wife, by the way, my wife hates when I do this. She said, you know, she's a very classy person. Right. She said, it's so unpresidential. He said, but I did become president. She, somebody, she hates what I dance. I said, everybody wants me to dance. Darling, it's not presidential. She actually said, could you imagine FDR dancing? She said that to me. And I said, there's a long history that perhaps she doesn't know because he wasn't elegant fellow, even as a Democrat, right? He was the attack by Japan. You know, he was quite elegant. But he wouldn't be doing this. But, but nor would too many others, but she says, darling, please, the weightlifting is terrible. And I have to say this, the dancing they really like. She said, they don't like it. They're just being nice to you. I said, that's not right. The place goes crazy. They're screaming, dance. Please, but the weightlifting, but no, they go, get your help. And you see, I want to be more, but I have somebody watching. I want to be more effusive. I want to really, yeah. But she gets it. I dropped the thing, walks off the stage crying, her mother's crying, her father's going, "God gets up." He said, "Have you lifted before a little bit?" And he walks up, being, he could have gone, ding, ding, ding. I think it was 112 pounds, right? It's crazy. For the beautiful boxer, they have boxing now, and they have a young gentleman who transitioned. It was a very good boxer, but he wanted to be a woman, which is, you know, to each his own. Because they want to be very liberal when it comes to these subjects. I'm trying to get that road. It's not an easy vote to get. It's very tough for me to get it. But he transitioned, and he transitioned. And the girl was a champion boxer, from Italy, remember? She got up first round. He had a pum with a left, a left for those, everybody had his butt, but a left, least enough better than anybody. But a left is defense. He goes, "Pum." She's like, "Oh, my God." She walked to the corner, remember? She didn't go down, but she did everything else. She said, "I've never been hit like that before. I don't want to go out again. You can do it. You can do it." Bing. You walked off. She said, "That's..." He happened to win the gold medal that young woman. You won the gold medal. There were two transition people. They're both one gold medals. The whole thing is ridiculous. You have policy on your side. They don't have policy on your side. You have policy.

[Excerpt from *Naked Lunch*, page 46]
The Meat Café occupies one side of the Plaza, a maze of kitchens, restaurants, sleeping cubicles, perilous iron balconies and basements opening into the underground baths.
On stools covered in white satin sit naked Mugwumps sucking translucent, colored syrups through alabaster straws. Mugwumps have no liver and nourish themselves exclusively on sweets. Thin, purple-blue lips cover a razor-sharp beak of black bone with which they frequently tear each other to shreds in fights over clients. These creatures secrete an addicting fluid from their erect penises which prolongs life by slowing metabolism. Addicts of Mugwump fluid are known as Reptiles. A number of these flow over chairs with their flexible bones and black-pink flesh. A fan of green cartilage covered with hollow, erectile hairs through which the Reptiles absorb the fluid sprouts from behind each ear. The fans, which move from time to time touched by invisible currents, serve also some form of communication known only to reptiles.
The Sailor spotted his Reptile. He drifted over and ordered a green syrup. The Reptile had a little, round disk mouth of brown gristle, expressionless green eyes almost covered by a thin membrane of eyelid. The Sailor waited an hour before the creature picked up his presence.
"Any eggs for Fats?" he asked, his words stirring through the Reptile's fan hairs.
It took two hours for the Reptile to raise three pink transparent fingers covered with black fuzz.
Several Meat Eaters lay in vomit, too weak to move. (The Black Meat is like a tainted cheese, overpoweringly delicious and nauseating so that the eaters eat and vomit and eat again until they fall exhausted.)
A painted youth slithered in and seized one of the great black claws sending the sweet, sick smell curling through the café.
Trump's spew reminds me of that old POG poster dream- something??? That dude never made any sense.
Any help on the pog poster name? My braincells have corroded. I remember he had his own containment thread for a bit.
Duh.. FortunaMaximus!!!
Yes now THAT name I remember.
rude, nonresponsive, and self-contradictory
not a promising flirtation, but this is 2P2, and it's politics so cherry picking a semantically-loaded hyperbole can also be expected
still, POG can do better! I will also try. thank you. 😀
suspect is carrying a semantically-loaded hyperbole
deploy caltrops
the left needs to step up its game
that reads like a fortuna maximus post
in a good way
It's Giordano Bruno. They burned him at the stake in Rome in 1600.
Got some riot action starting in Minneapolis right now, although it's possible they're only acting out scenes from One Battle After Another.
****ing pigs
