Between this and Seacrest still leading the Natural Immunity parade while having Covid for the second time last week, the unintentional comedy today has been off the charts. Simply amazing.

I will explain it for the morons. A year ago, people like ME were saying that we should probably CHILL OUT because COVID isn't the end of the world, and mostly, the people that were dying, were the elderly. To that tune, the Branch Covidians like Golden Jet labeled us monsters. So it's interesting now that the same Branch Covidians, are using that same defense when an elderly person, vaccinated, still dies of COVID.

Huh, what is this rambling nonsense?

Like I said, you struggle with the basics.

Cucker Bob laying out how his views on COVID have followed the exact path that Dear Leader told him to.

Im giving him free breadsticks tonight for that admission.


That comes out of your 9.25/HR salary.

Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Powell, etc are dishonorable.

Powell wasn't the person who made the decision as to what was to be said at the U.N. Bush and moreso Cheney made the call on that.

He was a puppet in that one.

I bet a dollar to a donut that Rambling Rectum Ruffcorn was always turned off by Powell's "steller reputation" also.

How did Powell atone for leveraging his credibility in service of the Iraq War? by telling people to vote for Joe Biden? George W. Bush did that too and I don't think he's off the hook either.

I was hoping he would have run for President in 1996. He would have had my vote.

RIP.

He would have defeated Clinton in '96. All the polls showed it. It wasn't even close.

He would have been the first Black President. He would have gotten re-elected and been in office on 9/11 to guide the country in its response. Kept the Republican party more moderate. There probably would be no President Obama or Obamacare.

He was a pivotal character in history. Unfortunately, his influence was directed in the wrong direction.

I'm no Milt Rosenberg, but that's a counterfactual that almost really occurred.

I guess the POTUS is a bot or disinformation agent then because that’s exactly his stance too . Probably just doing it for Twitter likes though.

That there are bots and actual purveyors of disinformation on social media isn't a partisan talking point. I rarely engage in all these dumbass partisan squabbles about masks, the vaccine, etc., because it's all agenda-driven and a fucking waste of time.

He has a school in the South Suburbs that he donated things to and quietly visited during the W Bush years.

It is pretty crazy to think how different history would have been if he had run and won.

I think Powell was duped, he was the only one with credability so they lied to him and let him sell that horseshit to us.

Just a soldier following orders?

I don't think Powell makes it past the primary in 1996. I'm also not confident that our country was ready for a black president after OJ and I doubt Powell had the political skills to beat balck President Clinton.

Powell winning in 96 against the incumbent with that economy would have been a tall order. He was very beloved though then. So it’s possible.
