Your problem is you look for every reason to discredit what you don’t like hearing. I get it. Many people don’t like to admit things that are painfully obvious. Kind of like not wanting to believe a loved one is making mistakes, when everyone else says they are.
Everything with Biden is a train wreck. Your refusing to see it doesn’t make it less true.
The end of the video really defines Joe Biden as a president. He will never have our backs, he will only turn his back on us. Someone he will never turn his back on, though.
Also. Multiple libs here have pointed to Joe Biden's response to the pandemic as something he has done better. He has had almost as much time as president during the pandemic as his predecessor, only with more knowledge of the virus and a trio of vaccines and we are in a downward spiral with almost 200,000 cases a day and a two week average of +1,300 deaths/day. I thought he was going to squash the virus. Oh, and cure cancer. I thought he was going to unify us and heal our nation. But he's been the least transparent president and more partisan than he's ever been. Is this when we blame him for every covid death and call him a liar?
No, we can’t call him a liar. It’s our fault. If we only would wear our masks, stay inside, avoid gatherings, limit our time in public, and get the 5 stages? of vaccines that are readily available, then the virus would have been beaten. He’s also doing a great job at the border. If you don’t believe him, just ask him.
We really should admire Biden’s hard work. Now stay off his case, it’s close to his nap time.
It's a damn video, dat. It mocks biden using his own words/lies. Who gives a shit what the source is. Whenever you don't want to address the context, you deflect by attacking the source.
According to numerous reports only 8000 of the refugees worked with us.So there are going to be roughly 100000 who are not going to be vetted coming into our country.Before you libs say they will be vetted realize that the normal vetting time usually takes between six to eight months,so there is no way to vet that many people in a few weeks.Another major problem is that without being in the country who do we go to to vet them.How many would be terrorists will be let in?
And it is heavily edited and manipulated. They make it look like VP Harris is laughing about Afghanistan. It includes a clip of a guy on the street falsely claiming that President Biden brokered the deal with the Taliban. They made cuts to pretend President Biden was looking at his watch during the dignified transfer. It's not honest journalism.
I think they just mocked camela as that is her reaction to about anything. I don't think they expect people to believe that she was laughing about Afghanistan, but I get your point. The clip of the guy on the street was how he views it, whether it is false or not is another thing. Pretend that he was looking at his watch during the dignified transfer? Pretend? Am I missing something?
To revisit that. One of the fathers said that he did it all 13 times. If this is the case, I could see where it could be some kind of tribute thing and not as selfish as I took it at the time. Has there been any clarification from the WH?
The fact check I read said he only looked at the watch after the ceremony and that there was video. 🤷♂️
Michael Moore's "Bowling for Columbine" film (and pretty much all of his stuff) is similarly dishonest on the left. I agree w/ his values more and can accept his point despite the manipulation, but I'd never offer him up as a source in a serious discussion.
Superlative. You get a gold sticker. Like your students when they memorize their times tables!
You think that video was created for serious discussion? I took it as an intentionally over the top piece meant to mock an inept administration. A mixture of exaggeration and actual quotes of Joe Biden’s lies.
If all the media you expose yourself to exaggerates in the same way, just to different degrees, it warps your sense of reality.
There's a reason players have to be retired for 5 years before they're eligible for the Hal of Fame. Otherwise, people would be voting in David Ross, the back-up Cubs catcher who hit a homerun in game 7 of the '16 Series in the last game of his career. Y'all are talking about a 7-month Presidency as the worst EVER in the moment. About the present day crisis in Afghanistan as the worst Presidential decision EVER. I like to avoid hyperbole because it's so dramatic and it's embarrassing. More practically, it makes it way more difficult to have honest conversations with anyone who sees it differently. It adds to division.
Well, I find that when people let their social stances control their political views it also warps their sense of reality. Can't speak for anyone but myself, but sharing, or having a sensible chuckle at some exaggerated or over the top videos doesn't really mean that it is all of the media that you expose yourself to.
A couple of things on the point that you keep attempting to make. I am saying with full confidence that this is the most inept administration ever. I can't say for certainty that he is or will be the worst president of all time. I said this before the Afghanistan debacle. His border policy is destroying our security, letting tons and tons of deadly drugs into our country and heavily contributing to the spread of covid. The virus he was going to squash. The amount of waste in the infrastructure bill that he is going to blindly sign into law makes George W, Obama and Trump (all huge contributors to wasteful spending) blush. He's an incoherent vegetable half of the time and has terrible leadership values even more than ever. He rarely takes questions and when he does, they are from pre-selected reporters, likely knowing what the question is going to be. The man is a shell of his old self and that wasn't much of a man to begin with. I would have sympathy for him at his cognitive state if he hasn't been a failure of a politician for almost half a century and on top of that, enrich himself and his family by using his influence as VP and head of international diplomacy.
You keep saying that 7 months isn't enough to judge a presidency. We are doing it by criticizing policy. In Trump's first 7 months, you guys were wearing pussy hats and screaming to the sky. Talking about how you couldn't imagine having to raise a daughter with Trump as your president. "Hurry up and get your abortions now!" Remember that dime? It was all sensationalized bullshit with the left. Always is.
Only thing I’ll add to this is anyone that thinks Biden is running the country has shit for brains.
He’s nothing more than a patsy.
Candace Owens denied medical treatment as Colorado lab cancels COVID test appointment
Conservative author and commentator Candace Owens was denied medical care in the form of a coronavirus test by a Colorado laboratory because of her political beliefs, Fox News anchor Tucker Carlson reported Thursday.
Completely partisan crap. EVERYONE thinks they're going entirely by the book and the other side is totally compromised by emotion. If the realization that EVERYONE feels that way doesn't give you reason to pause and do some humble self-reflection, you're just contributing to the divide (and probably blaming it on others).
This Gabriel Gipe dude sounds like a good example of a teacher who has completely abused his power, but I don't trust anything James O'Keefe and ProjectVeritas produce. O'Keefe is a felon (something I can overlook, but which conservatives sure haven't in past scenarios) and his editing is completely fraudulent. For all we know, he got this dude really drunk, then asked him questions like, "Okay, what's the most radical, straight-forward way you could express what you wish would happen?" For all we know, he edited out parts where Mr. Gipe said things like, "Now, I totally have to make room for other viewpoints and I make sure to defend them, as well..."
I mean, this Gipe dude sounds really awful, but O'Keefe is just as suspect, so...
And there's nothing brave or "DESTROYS" about yelling into a mic for your allotted time at a school board meeting.
If true that's absolutely despicable. IF true.Candace Owens denied medical treatment as Colorado lab cancels COVID test appointment

She wasn't "denied treatment." A private lab said that they were cancelling her appointment for a covid test. They suggested she go to one of the public places. After having her talking about how the virus was a liberal hoax and bragging about being anti-tax, the owner of the clinic took a stand. Whether the owner was right or wrong is certainly an appropriate topic for discussion but it is important to recognize what happened and she was NOT denied medical treatment.
You're actually not completely wrong for once. But... The lady didn't simply suggest that Owens go to one of the public places. She mockingly told her to and went on to explain how long the lines were and how long it took to get results. I am not aware of Owens' stance on covid, I am not a follower. But if she has called it a liberal hoax, then it is pretty ironic that she wanted a test. That said, if monitoring cases and contact tracing is as important as they say it is, then this practice put politics ahead of public health. That's just as irresponsible as Owens allegedly using her platform to spread misinformation. But that's the world we live in today. Two wrongs, doesn't matter what's right.
Oh, so conservative media and conservative public figure distort the truth. Shocking.
It's more accurately hypocritical than ironic, and if this private clinic has the right to deny her service, they have the right to deny it in whatever way they see fit, mockingly or otherwise.
You'd be clear to use "hypocritical" instead of "ironic" if this were President Obama's maskless birthday party.
I suspect this private practice will have no problem filling her appointment slot and maximizing their monitoring of cases and contact tracing for the public good, and Ms. Owens can do her part by standing in a long line like anyone else. She's no more entitled to private service than anyone else. Nice attempt at equivocating, though.
You are one sad and pathetic person.
But to address your dumb comment about the Obama maskless party. I said from the beginning that I had ZERO issues with him having a party and adults choosing not to wear masks.
The owner of the facility said that given. how much people like Owen have provided disinformation about the seriousness of the disease, people like her have made it much harder for places like this facility to do what needs to be done to try to get the pandemic under control. She added that she felt like it would be a disservice to her staff to allow Owens to use their testing. I don't know how I feel about that but there has now been a long line of reasons to deny people service, like refusing to provide wedding cakes etc. I do think that words and choices should have consequences and if you have made it your mission to spread disinformation, then maybe the consequence is that you get treated like the disease is not a big deal. Owens is a big girl and she mocked the facility so the "mocking" issue is just plain silly.
She has never said that that Covid was not real.She has not been vaccinated due to the fact that at her age after consulting with her Doctor she does not feel that it is necessary.She has to take the test because many of the venues she appears at requires either a negative test or proof of vaccination so to make a living she has to have one or the other.A far cry what the liberal board members have suggested
The owner of a medical facility is choosing not to serve someone based on political beliefs. And you're not sure how you feel about it.
How do you feel about this?
