[Bumblebrain Biden has proven himself to be everything predicted.  Everything he has touched so far has been or quickly turned to bullpucky for Americans and our nation’s future.  I now challenge readers; who will be the first one to discover something beneficial that he will do in the time to come.  Since beauty is in the eye of the beholder, we will only accept beholders of the conservetarian et al leanings.  gjr]

    I do read the posts Punch……more importantly I remember your old posts. The ones where you whined incessantly about the popular vote…..Hillary won the popular vote….what about the popular vote….the will of the people. Arguments conveniently forgotten now that the conditions have reversed themselves.
    Really Paul….you’re too old a man to be this big a weasel.

    Biden is not my guru or my first choice for President but he was far and away the best choice rather than Trump who is severely disturbed narcissist and a delusional man and a danger to our country. Trump is not my choice among the two but you like him which is your privilege. There is not much more to it than that.
    Biden easily won the electoral votes and had the largest popular vote in history so he was clearly the choice of the American people.

    This blog went through years of blaming the debt on Obama when he was President even when the Repubs controlled the House and Senate which was until two years ago. In fact you are verifying the Republicans and Trump responsibility for the debt for at least the first two years of his administration and the last 6 years of Obama’s admin because the Repubs controlled the House for all those years.

    “According to one law enforcement official, medical examiners did not find signs that the officer sustained any blunt force trauma, so investigators believe that early reports that he was fatally struck by a fire extinguisher are not true.”
    “But investigators reviewing video of the officer’s time around the Capitol haven’t been able to confirm that in tape that has been recovered so far, the official said.”

    After Britt Wray married in 2017, she and her husband began discussing whether they were going to have children. The conversation quickly turned to climate change and to the planet those children might inherit.
    “It was very, very heavy,” said Wray, now a postdoctoral fellow at Stanford University and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. “I wasn’t expecting it.” She said she became sad and stressed, crying when she read new climate reports or heard activists speak.

    If this turns out to be true, I want whoever cocked up this stupid story hung out to dry. Although I believed the initial story of the officer being bludgeoned with a fire extinguisher to be true, I wondered why there seemed to be zero info on exactly who, why, and when this happened. They seem to have lots of info about everything else.

    I found the video of what is supposed to be the officer being hit by the fire extinguisher. It looks to be empty and the officer has a helmet and doesn’t seem to be affected at all by the impact. I’ve seen countless videos during the summer of officers being struck and hit far harder by rioters as well as the officers that were deliberately blinded by lasers.
    The Dems cheered!
    Now it could very well be that the person who threw that can did cause something to happen to the officer that later caused his death, but it will be impossible to prove that anyone else had a hand in what looked like an illegal, violent, stupid and impromptu toss into a crowd.
    If you really want to ascribe blame I would suggest the various Dem mayors, DAs and governors that promoted violent rioting all summer.

    According to CNN, a fire extinguisher was tossed, but that was a separate incident not involving Brian Sicknick.
    CNN: “As part of the investigation into the riots, prosecutors have charged several with assault against a federal officer stemming from violent episodes at the Capitol, separate from the one involving Sicknick.”
    Separate from Officer Sicknick violent incidents:
    “One man can be seen in surveillance video striking uniformed officers from the Capitol Police and the DC’s Metropolitan Police Department with a metal baseball bat, according to an FBI affidavit.
    Another man allegedly threw a fire extinguisher at a group of police officers, striking three in the head, an affidavit says.“

    Early bird gets the worm. Morning quotes from Year One.
    Insight: “In order to become the master, the politician poses as the servant.” —Charles de Gaulle (1890-1970)
    Observations: “Gotta say it is a bit head spinning watching much of the political press cheer for a Cheney.” —Erick Erickson
    Re: The Left: “The real story is that AOC was in her office and then a cop came and told her to evacuate. The end. That was her entire involvement in that day’s events. She managed to turn that into a harrowing tale of narrowly avoiding death at the hands of assassins sent by Ted Cruz.” —Matt Walsh
    Upright: “I respectfully disagree with the president and the executive order on doing away with the Keystone pipeline. … I [would] rather it come from Canada than I would from Venezuela. … You cannot eliminate your way to a cleaner global environment. You can innovate your way through technology, and that’s what we intend to do.” —Senator Joe Manchin
    Demo-gogue: “We’re going to work to undo the moral and national shame of the previous administration that literally, not figuratively, ripped children from the arms of their families.” —Joe Biden, who was VP when the Obama administration first erected cages
    Non compos mentis: “[Trump] absolutely should be charged with premeditated murder because of the lives that were lost for this invasion with his insurrection.” —Rep. Maxine Waters
    Race bait: “This is the Republican playbook. We saw it with Donald Trump. Anytime they are faced with consequences for their actions to undermine our democracy, they blame Muslims, they blame immigrants, they blame black people, they blame women. I just happen to embody all of these identities. … Republicans can’t just wave a magic wand and attack the black congresswoman.” —Rep. Ilhan Omar
    Political theater: “This is a very difficult situation and we’re in it, still, because of the incompetence of the previous administration.” —Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot regarding that city’s absurd in-person teaching revolt
    Grand delusions, part I: “I think that it’s critically important that the education system and educators respect the rights of all students, including students who are transgender, and that they are afforded the opportunities that every other student has to participate in extracurricular activities. I think it’s the legal responsibility of schools to provide opportunities for students to participate in activities, and this includes students who are transgender.” —secretary of education nominee Miguel Cardona
    Grand delusions, part II: “Attacks on trans youth in sports are showing up in dozens of state legislatures nationwide. These bans are discriminatory, harmful, and unscientific. … FACT ONE: Trans girls are girls. FACT TWO: Trans athletes do not have an unfair advantage in sports. FACT THREE: Including trans athletes will benefit everyone. FACT FOUR: Trans people belong on the same teams as other students.” —ACLU
