With all due respect. GFY. You act as if the Democratic party is entitled to votes. Clue phone here. They are not. Want our vote. Give us a candidate that we can vote for. Until then. Sit and spin. #20 | Posted by LauraMohr

Here you go SpeakSoftly. Case in point.

There are probably few users on this site more in need of a liberal SCOTUS for protection than Laura. But cutting off nose to spite face seems to be preferable for the Greens than voting for Al Gore or Hillary. So at least I'll be able to schauden my freude when those SCOTUS rulings inevitably make their way into our society.

Meanwhile, in France: "French Candidates Drop Out En Masse to Stop Far-Right Takeover" www.thedailybeast.com

So the French thought rationally and strategically, taking necessary steps to protect their hard-won rights (like five weeks of paid vacation a year, universal healthcare, one year of paid parental leave per child). And we have the Greens thinking that they proved a point while the Repubs tear down the few benefits we have.

And just to be clear, I will be voting for Biden if that's the only choice I have that might beat Trump. My concern is that Joe has no chance of recovering from that debate, especially seeing as he was already behind before he figuratively relieved himself up on that stage.

I am not certain whether this disdainful mind-set says more about the people who have contempt for fashion or the people willing to waste tons of money on narcissistic items such as a $2700 bag. #11 | Posted by moder8

I think it says oodles about the people who spend almost $3K on an item that costs 5% of that to produce. Much like it said much about a culture that spent the cost of a home on a tulip bulb.

The fact that the owner of this company is a billionaire many times over, but the people manufacturing the product earned $2 an hour says quite a bit as well.

But hey, I'm always in favor of people with too much money on their hands spending it. Only wish that it went to those who needed it more, rather than, in this case, the third wealthiest man in the world.
