• Happy Voting

    From Gregory Deyss@1:267/150 to All on Mon Nov 4 20:21:12 2024
    Tomorrow is election Day. Y'all know I will be at the polls casting my vote to Make America Great Again. Saving America from the disaster that will certainly be another road to ruin.

    In the beginning of Joe's Presidency I was skeptical, now that it is nearly done. I have been as others are, reflecting on it now.
    It would seem that the skepticism was indeed accurate.

    A few highlights of Biden Administration.
    Leaving Afghanistan - the way we did. - Disaster.
    Seeing a Chinese Spy Balloon traversing across the U.S. hovering over our Military installations along the way. Only to be shot down off the Carolina coast. I would of shot it down very quickly.
    Sending a message of strength instead of weakness.
    Build Back Better and being told it was a success - when people are still and very much so struggling.
    Being told Biden was strong and vibrant - sharp as a tac and let us not forget hard to keep up with. All a lie.

    So I will be voting for who the left calls a Felon.
    Make no mistake this was intentioned for tomorrow - Election Day.
    All the court cases, all the pundits, all that hate. Tomorrow is the day.
    We shall see who comes out on top. America has two possible futures ahead.

    Who told you that? Did he also tell you about the 3000 Taliban terrorists that Trump forced the Afghan government to release from prison, and that immediately took power?

    How has this affected you personally?

    Seeing a Chinese Spy Balloon traversing across the U.S. hovering over
    our Military installations along the way. Only to be shot down off the Carolina coast. I would of shot it down very quickly.

    Yeah, of course you would. What do you think would happen if it was shot down over your home?

    How has this affected you personally?

    Sending a message of strength instead of weakness.

    Instead of sending a message that "we know what you are doing, but we care more about our citizens than some trigger happy hawks here".

    Build Back Better and being told it was a success - when people are
    still and very much so struggling.

    The original BBB included all the later Acts that the Biden administration later managed to pass through a hostile congress.

    Every single one was so successful that even the hard-core MAGA Cult members still are taking credit for them.

    How has this affected you personally? What people are still struggling? Do you know anyone?

    Being told Biden was strong and vibrant - sharp as a tac and let us not forget hard to keep up with. All a lie.

    Yes, he was and still is strong and vibrant. Just because he unfortunately no longer is able to overcome his stutter, does not mean that he no longer have 50 years of experience in his brain.

    This unlike the Orange Jesus, that time and time again demonstrate that he knows even less about anything than he did 2016.

    Do you really think that tariffs will benefit the US people?

    What does your wife think?

    Who told me of this National embarrassment? - and it was every-bit of that and more. As for the negotiated prisoner release there is so much to that story, then what you have attempted to twist it into.

    You can be assured that there is a greater response coming.

    In the beginning of Joe's Presidency I was skeptical, now that it is nearly done. I have been as others are, reflecting on it now.
    It would seem that the skepticism was indeed accurate.

    I am still perplexed at how so many people were so surprised that Joe
    melted down during the first 2024 debate. His cognition issues were very obvious even before the 2020 election. Granted, with his lack of public appearances before the 2020 election, they were able to hide it some but,
    good grief, it was obvious *long* before he and Trump took the stage for
    that debate.

    I know some were denying it on purpose, but there were others that really
    did seem shocked, and still others (at least one here) who still don't
    believe he has any cognitive issues.

    A few highlights of Biden Administration.
    Leaving Afghanistan - the way we did. - Disaster.

    Yep.

    Seeing a Chinese Spy Balloon traversing across the U.S. hovering over our Military installations along the way. Only to be shot down off the Carolina coast. I would of shot it down very quickly.
    Sending a message of strength instead of weakness.

    Yep. Had it not been such a clear day when it first crossed over into the
    USA from Canada, so clear that regular citizens could spot it, we the
    regular citizens probably never would have known about it. And more of them would have undoubtedly followed, unchallenged by either Canada or the US.

    Build Back Better and being told it was a success - when people are still and very much so struggling.

    It benefited the companies owned by donors, I am sure.

    Being told Biden was strong and vibrant - sharp as a tac and let us not forget
    hard to keep up with. All a lie.

    See my impressions above.

    So I will be voting for who the left calls a Felon.
    Make no mistake this was intentioned for tomorrow - Election Day.
    All the court cases, all the pundits, all that hate. Tomorrow is the day.
    We shall see who comes out on top. America has two possible futures ahead.

    I am still in the camp that believes both parties, and the primary voters, really let us down as far as the two top-party candidates are concerned.

    I also believe we cannot underestimate the female population who are very
    angry and who won't make the same choice as you, no matter how bad the
    other choice might be.

    I have heard at least one male Harris voter complain that she made the
    campaign almost entirely about that, where most people are more affected by other things. One example he brought up was the economy and how the
    average person, who is currently living paycheck to paycheck, is not going
    to relate to talk about how economic trends show good things coming. They really want to hear you say you are going to do something about it -- as
    Trump did.

    Based on the reactions of some females on social media who were Harris supporters, abortion was pretty much the only issue they seemed to care about. A few were upset that "selfish" people cared more about "other issues" than that one. I guess they are doing well enough financially that they were
    free to focus on just that one.

    The hard facts are that women have always had 'reproductive rights'. They say "no" and keep their legs closed.

    "Reproductive Rights" actually means "not having to take responsibility for their decisions."

    But this was always the plan.

    I've noticed for a long time now that more adults seem to be more child-like in their thinking. One of the Elitists' plans was to create a dependant-class that would always vote them into office. Making people child-like (unable to make rational decisions, needing someone to absolve them of their bad decisions, do their thinking for them, etc.) was being pushed out as early as the 1970's.

    Indeed. They knew about it when it was over Canada (actually, I think they knew when it was over *Alaska* before it even got to Canada). US citizens started reporting it when it was somewhere over the northern plains.

    The administration let it get over more densly populated areas before acknoledging it, which did mean that the chances of it falling onto a house were greater, hoping we'd ignore all the time it spent over corn fields and other sparsely populated areas.

    Best form of birth control is a baby asperin held between the knees. :-)

    But seriously, when you say that they bring up rape and incest. First,
    these are a VERY very small percentage, but even in those cases I am
    against abortion. There are no other crimes where we kill the offspring
    of the criminal.

    But even allowing for that and nothing else, which I'm not comfortable
    with but is a step in the right direction, is not enough. What Clinton
    called "safe and rare" is now "no one else's business, even up to the
    point of birth."

    But the Elitists always dress up their Narratives with opposite
    sounding names.
    "Reproductive Rights" actually means "not having to take
    responsibility for their decisions."

    To me 'reproductive rights' means 'right to murder my unborn child.'
    It's not 'reproductive' if you are stopping a pregnancy.

    Just like "planned parenthood" - really means "we kill the unplanned."

    But this was always the plan.

    I've noticed for a long time now that more adults seem to be more child-like in their thinking. One of the Elitists' plans was to create

    Agreed. We saw a bit of that with Hurricane Katrina...

    Not talking about suggesting to me - talking about the santity of

    Planned parenthood is just that, planned parenthood.

    When they promote killing the unborn, that's the oppisite of
    'parenthood.'

    You sound very righteous, and that is OK.

    Only because of the Grace of God and the Salvation through Jesus
    Christ. In and of myself? Nope - very, very evil!

    Somebody choosing not to have a baby at this time is also OK.

    If someone doesn't have the wherewithal to have a child it might be
    better that they don't.

    Choosing not to have a baby by killing the baby? Does that include
    after it is born too?

    So it's better for a child to be dead than to be born into a life
    where their parents don't want it? Does the same go for one that
    is already born? Better to throw it in a dumpster than give it
    a chance at life?

    Serious questions - I'd love to hear your perspective.

    I wanted to get back to you as promised. I did reply somewhat, but I was pressed for time as I was getting ready to goto work. Shortly there after it was the election and now the world knows that Donald Trump was victorious within the electoral college and he also won the popular vote too.

    I think the prosecution of Trump circus-like court case and how Judge Merchan conducted his courtroom was very unfair. Trump and his attorneys found their way through it without going to rikers island. Personally I think they should lay the cornerstone for a real Arkham Asylum in Gotham. as seen in The Batman Universe.

    This is NOT a criticism of Trump or what he said at the time or during or even after the NY court proceedings.

    Additionally, I give no praise to Judge Merchan now that he is considering of tossing out the Frankenstein felony conviction. I believe this was done for the sole purpose so that lefty pundits could proudly recite w/ confidence and assurance use the word Felon 100 x times within a broadcast or at every opportunity. Trump lived and breathed for 70 years and no criminal record and then all of sudden, yeah I don't buy it and neither do the American People.

    Who told you that? Did he also tell you about the 3000 Taliban
    terrorists that Trump forced the Afghan government to release from
    prison, and that immediately took power?

    It is also important to note that other Taliban commanders were released long before the Trump administration's agreement.

    How has this affected you personally?
    I would ask you the same question, why do you care?

    Seeing a Chinese Spy Balloon traversing across the U.S. hovering over our Military installations along the way. Only to be shot down off the
    Carolina coast. I would of shot it down very quickly.

    Yeah, of course you would. What do you think would happen if it was shot down over your home?
    The trajectory of this was no where near me / Home of Uncle Sam (Troy, NY)

    Build Back Better and being told it was a success - when people are still and very much so struggling.
    The original BBB included all the later Acts that the Biden
    administration later managed to pass through a hostile congress.
    BBB was masquerading in a Halloween costume and underneath it all it was
    Green New Deal.

    Every single one was so successful that even the hard-core MAGA Cult members still are taking credit for them.

    You think of THAT was process. Just wait - Trump will blow the doors off. Speaking of blowing Kamala will not helping either, thanks very much..

    Being told Biden was strong and vibrant - sharp as a tac and let us n forget hard to keep up with. All a lie.
    Yes, he was and still is strong and vibrant. Just because he
    unfortunately no longer is able to overcome his stutter, does not mean that he no longer have 50 years of experience in his brain.
    Stuttering had nothing to do with his fall from grace. His incoherence seen in what is known as the famous Biden Gaffes which can easily pulled up at a moments notice on Youtube.com Followed by Kamala's cackle not to mention her Word Salads. To be unburdened by what has been. I am glad the election is over as well. The Blue Wall turned out to be thw Red Wall.

    This unlike the Orange Jesus, that time and time again demonstrate
    that he knows even less about anything than he did 2016.
    It is clear that the American People have provided that as a opportunity again. Thanks to all my so called liberal friends, oh so very delusional they are. Their seething hated of Trump made us all pay attention to what was being done to this man was so incredibly wrong.
    Hang on to your Schackrutors, you haven't seen nothing yet.....

    To me 'reproductive rights' means 'right to murder my unborn child.'

    Has anyone ever suggested to you to "murder your unborn child"?

    No? I didn't think so.

    Not talking about suggesting to me - talking about the santity of
    human life.

    I wasn't talking about you personally either and I agree, life is sacred.

    Just like "planned parenthood" - really means "we kill the unplanned."

    Planned parenthood is just that, planned parenthood.

    When they promote killing the unborn, that's the oppisite of
    'parenthood.'

    Nobody is promoting killing the unborn. Parenthood should be planned.

    I believe a woman has a right to privacy and a right have to abortion.

    It works the same way in reverse. She has a right to give birth to her child.

    You sound very righteous, and that is OK.

    Only because of the Grace of God and the Salvation through Jesus
    Christ. In and of myself? Nope - very, very evil!

    I understand.

    Somebody choosing not to have a baby at this time is also OK.

    If someone doesn't have the wherewithal to have a child it might be
    better that they don't.

    Choosing not to have a baby by killing the baby?

    No killing has happened.

    Does that include after it is born too?

    That would be murder, that is not happening is it?

    So it's better for a child to be dead than to be born into a life
    where their parents don't want it?

    Nobody in America is aking that argument, why do you?

    Does the same go for one that is already born?

    Of course not. That isn't happening and I don't understand why you bring it up.

    Better to throw it in a dumpster than give it a chance at life?

    Same response. Why do you bring that up?

    Serious questions - I'd love to hear your perspective.

    Abortion is health care. Today in America women who need health care are turned away from hospitals because doctors are afraid they will be sued/jailed for giving a woman the care she needs.

    These women I bring up had a miscarriage, not an abortion. They wanted their baby and were carrying it to term. After the miscarriage (or an abortion) a women may need a D&C to remove any remaining material in their body.

    A D&C is a fairly simple and common proceedure but it is a life saver for a woman in need. Women in America have died because they couldn't get the care they need from their doctor/hospital.

    There a recent cases like this, I am not making this up.

    It's not 'reproductive' if you are stopping a pregnancy.

    And it should always be between the doctor and the parents to make the decision. It some (very, very rare) cases, it may need to be done to save the life of the mother.

    In any case, it's none of the state's business and not society's problem to pay for.

    to give a simple procedure (yes, simple - my wife had a D&C after our
    first child was lost in a miscarriage in 1990). My understanding was

    The afterbirth. It can be a very serious issue if the afterbirth is not expelled, or is not expelled completely.

    A D&C is a fairly simple and common proceedure but it is a life saver for a woman in need. Women in America have died because they couldn't get the care they need from their doctor/hospital.

    The reason that medical professionals might be concerned about performing a
    D&C and then reporting it in their statistics (or as part of an autopsy
    should the mother die anyway) is that "D&C," pre-Roe v. Wade, was also used
    to mask procedures that were actually abortions.

    You have many times dodged and weaved. Even appeared to make things as you continue to stick to the liberal talking points which has no basis in logic.

    Democratic Politicians that suggest things are rosy and everything is better when they are not. Which means they are completely out of touch.
    When the American people feel things they vote. Oh Boy did they vote.

    Democrats not only lost in the Presidential election but they lost their footing and control in the House of Representatives 208 to a 215 Republican. Senate was a red bloodbath.

    Having you here just repeating this liberal non-sense is really disrespectful especially to those who are continuing to struggle.

    There is no child at that point, no killing is taking place.

    And that is something I guess we'll never agree on. I will firmly
    defend the life inside the woman just as strongly as the life
    outside the woman - and the woman's life too.

    I don't understand how that has become the norm in this country.

    What's right for you might not be right for someone else.

    No one is forcing anyone to have an abortion. Why would you force
    someone to carry a child to term? There are many valid reasons why a
    woman might choose an abortion.

    Again, we disagree on the definition of 'valid.' And you're right, no
    one is forcing abortions. They are being celebrated though, and that
    turns my stomach...

    There a recent cases like this, I am not making this up.

    I have heard of ONE case like this - only one - but it is broght up all

    I would like to review the facts myself. Is that Texas? Or somewhere else?

    Okay - I looked it up. Looks like the SECOND attending physician made a HUGE mistake. The article I read blames the anti-abortion laws, but also points
    out the same doctor made other mistakes in the past on non-pregnant people.

    My takeaway is that it is VERY very sad what happened, but saying that
    abortion shouldn't be illegal doesn't fix when doctors make mistakes.

    The point being, women have miscarriages all the time, sadly, and
    medical procedures to take care of them still happen all the time. I've
    seen no proof that doctors are 'scared,' just rhetoric about it.

    Okay - it's MOSTLY rhetoric, at least in my state. Left leaning
    legislaters want to say, "doctors are leaving the state becasue
    they are scared," when the truth is they are leaving because
    they can't perform abortions - something they make money on.

    Now that the states are in charge it is my hope that states will step
    up and that doctors will be free from fear of litigation or
    imprisonment to care for women when needed.

    Again, I'll disagree on the word 'care' there. Your form of care
    sounds like abortion on demand, and I hope the states will rise up
    and NOT allow it.

    Sadly selfishness has come out on top in a lot of states thus far.

    If a woman chooses to have an abortion no one has been killed.

    Then our definition is NOT the same.

    OK. I don't see any murder in abortion.

    I see a woman making a decision for herself and her future.

    It is the womans life until it is born.

    So in your mind a pregnant woman has two hearts? Two sets of lungs?
    Etc.?

    No.

    Women "NEED" abortions. That's the part I can't get behind.

    That's what I have been reading.

    Good. I'm not failing to make my stand known then. :-)

    Yes, I understand your position.

    And that is something I guess we'll never agree on. I will firmly
    defend the life inside the woman just as strongly as the life
    outside the woman - and the woman's life too.

    That's good to know.

    The only difference betwwen our positions is that I beleive a woman has the right to privacy and to make her own choice.

    I may not agree with her choice or some parts of it, but it is still her choice to make and she free to do what is best for her.

    No one is forcing anyone to have an abortion. Why would you force
    someone to carry a child to term? There are many valid reasons why a
    woman might choose an abortion.

    Again, we disagree on the definition of 'valid.' And you're right, no
    one is forcing abortions. They are being celebrated though, and that
    turns my stomach...

    OK, I think a woman may have valid reasons to choose as she does.

    There a recent cases like this, I am not making this up.

    I have heard of ONE case like this - only one - but it is broght up all
    the time, even here in Tennessee.

    There are several recent cases, another in Texas.

    My takeaway is that it is VERY very sad what happened, but saying that abortion shouldn't be illegal doesn't fix when doctors make mistakes.

    Doctor mistakes is another thing altogether.

    That's not rhetoric. That is what is happening today.

    Okay - it's MOSTLY rhetoric, at least in my state.

    It is not rhetoric, it is happening and will continue to happen unless it is corrected.

    Left leaning legislaters want to say, "doctors are leaving the state becasue they are scared," when the truth is they are leaving because they can't perform abortions - something they make money on.

    Doctors make mony delivering babies as well.

    Now that the states are in charge it is my hope that states will step
    up and that doctors will be free from fear of litigation or
    imprisonment to care for women when needed.

    Again, I'll disagree on the word 'care' there. Your form of care
    sounds like abortion on demand, and I hope the states will rise up
    and NOT allow it.

    Abortion is health care for women. They need or want it as the case may be.

    Abortion on demand is not a thing.

    Sadly selfishness has come out on top in a lot of states thus far.

    I have to agree.

    If abortion is outlawed women will still have abortions because they want or need it. This is dangerous. It is better that women have a safe place to get the care that they need.

    Left leaning legislaters want to say, "doctors are leaving the state becasue
    they are scared," when the truth is they are leaving because they can't perform abortions - something they make money on.

    Doctors make money delivering babies as well.

    I would argue that they make more money on babies that are carried to term
    and delivered... there are multiple doctor visits during the pregnancy, and after, and there is a hospital stay after delivery.

    With abortions, unless there are complications, there is one office visit
    and it is done.

    Doctors make a lot more money delivering babies than aborting them.

    Abortion on demand is not a thing.

    It certainly is not any more and, statisticly, was not usually the case.

    I see a woman making a decision for herself and her future.

    Then we will never agree on this. I see the baby in the womb
    as just as alive and a SEPERATE PERSON as the woman is.

    I see it as a separate person at the point in time where it can viably live outside the womb without being on life support. Until it is capable of
    living outside the womb, it is not a separate person.

    Again, in Tennessee there are no reports of this. There are people claiming it happens, because it goes against what they are pushing, but it's not actually happening.

    The reason there are no reports of that in Tennessee is because a
    three-judge panel in October ruled that, contrarty to Tennessee law,
    doctors cannot be punished for providing abortion services in emergency situations (where the mother is at risk).

    There is currently a lawsuit challenging Tennessee's restrictive abortion
    ban. If Tennessee should win the lawsuit, these emergency services will go back to being banned. You will then start seeing reports of women being
    turned away and possibly dying because care was denied.

    Google "Tennessee cannot discipline doctors abortion" and you will get
    plenty of articles about the case.

    and is funded by taxpayer money.

    That fetus has all the rights given to it from the constitution after the 1st trimester.

    I believe life begins at fertilization, so I'm against it all. BUT -
    your poposal has merit! That would save a TON of lives, which is
    much more than is being done now.

    For every 100 abortions, only 7 are performed outside of the first trimester.

    So 7 lives in 100 would be saved. That's better than zero!

    It is, and they are adding additional reasons and/or constraints daily to the availability of MAID.

    Currently you must:

    have a serious illness, disease or disability
    be in an advanced state of decline that cannot be reversed
    experience unbearable physical or mental suffering from your illness, disease, disability or state of decline that cannot be relieved under conditions that you consider acceptable
    You do not need to have a fatal or terminal condition to be eligible for medical assistance in dying.

    That part of the Tennessee law... doctor's getting in trouble for assisting women in emergencies... is not currently being enforced.
    It has been suspended pending the outcome of a lawsuit.

    I'll go along with that! Of course at the time our government was set
    up we didn't have people sacrificing children...

    One of the goals that the Elitists have is creating a "Dependant Class" that always votes them back in office. They've actually gone a long way in that as evidenced by the votes in the last election. A good number still voted for the Dems.

    Part of creating that class is to keep people "childish". i.e. deferring to "authority", not having to take responsibility for their actions, etc.

    The "abortion on demand" was part of the "not having to take responsibility" part of this conditioning.

    The example that I use here is to imagine a little kid. He wants a balloon. So his parents get him one. Being a kid, he lets the balloon go. He watches it go up and up and then realizes that it's not coming back. He cries so his parents get him a new balloon and tie it to his wrist.

    Next year, same little kid. He gets his balloon. He lets it go. He cries. But this time he's told "No. You knew what was going to happen. It's your fault you lost your balloon." And the kid matures a little that day.

    The Elitists want to halt that as much as possible.

    So is taking care of unwanted children.

    It would actually be closer to 4 lives if Joe's percentages on the number
    of those that are due to medical emergencies is correct.

    As I have said before, unless you are out there adopting these kids, or are happily paying the extra tax dollars to help raise them (with NO complaints EVER about high taxes), you really should not get a say in it.

    I am not adopting, and don't like paying the government more money, so I
    should *not* be telling women they cannot get an abortion.

    As I have seen *zero* stories in here from the pro-life crowd about how
    they personally have adopted a ton of unwanted kids, and how well it is going for them, it is my opinion that none of us should be telling women that.

    The US actually did have abortions back then.

    Google "history of abortion." The practice dates back to at least 1500BC.
    In this country it was seen as an acceptable practice, up until the point of the detection of "fetal motion," until the 1840s. That was when the American Medical Association was formed and began to see abortion as another pie they could get a piece of by regulating and making money off of it.

    Laws against abortion didn't come into vogue until later, after the country
    was nearing its 100th birthday.

    And no abortions leads to more people that become part of the "dependent class," which leads to more childish people who don't take responsibility
    for any of their (other) actions.

    I don't see a win-win in making it mostly illegal.

    But you assume that they will just keep getting pregnant, even if they can't get an abortion. I don't believe that's true. Some will, of course, but most won't after the first one - even if they give the baby up for adoption.

    But abortion is now a STATE issue. So the people who want abortions will simply move to a state (like the People's Socialist Utopia of California) that allows it on demand, any time and paid for by the state. In a way, it would consolidate all the childish adults into one area that wants those kinds of people.

    But in any case, abortion is a "distraction issue". It's emotional and gets people to direct attention there instead of other, more important, issues.

    We agree on this 100%.

    Someone I have known since we were kids, and who grew up to be a Democrat, pointed out that Kamala's biggest mistake was making that issue (a
    distraction issue) the biggest of her campaign. He pointed out that the
    Trump campaign stayed on point with their message regarding the economy,
    and that the economy is bad enough that most voters are going to be more worried about putting food on the table than they are abortions.

    Since then I have seen a lot of media talking heads point out the same
    thing, and they are correct.
