Sedition

Perseveration in calling attention to your screw-ups in "correcting" neoplacebo and subsequent cowering from accountability = masochism. Poor baby.

WTF is the Beverly Hillbillies thing about?

Flight of Ideas gone amok again?

Could be that. Or, country folk are yet another group that Useless is bigoted against. I'm not sure where he sees the insult in a family that is collectively kind, generous, wise, supportive of each other, self sufficient even before finding oil and wealthy, but whatever floats his boat.

[Ulysses]

BRD is the modern version of the Beverly Hillbillies.

Own it.

And I've missed more than $300 in not replying to useless posts. But then I did note that I'm not greedy.

I estimate 99% of Neo's posts are useless. That is, they have no value whatsoever.

I suppose that's better than them being a liability, like some posts here.

Deluded much? Not a single person stood up for you in this chat:
viewtopic.php?p=155969#p155969

Just one. Why are you still here?

Why do you want to know?

You know, I could ask you the same question.

Why are YOU still here?

neoplacebo is wanted.

Because Neo is dastardly clever, funny, thoughtful and contributes interesting things to the board......

Ulysses should observe and aspire to be more like Neo.

Self awareness is not his forte.

At what point does the question occur to someone that claims everyone else has a problem start to think maybe I'm the problem?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Projection.....

Attribution fix.

You're such a dreamer!

GoCubsGo's point is proved.

[Ulysses]

If anyone here has zero self-awareness, it is you, Sluggo.

You're even worse than the other BRD loser.

Even if what you posted were accurate, I'd still beat you because ALL your posts are useless, So even in a worst case scenario, I'd still have 1% stellar posts while you'd have squat. And with regard to whether my posts have "value" I've already made clear that I am paid $75 every time I reply to one of your useless posts. How much are you making? Can you now see where the value actually is? Probably not. And on top of all that, I've been offered a raise which I humbly declined. Now go sniff some glue and take your hand out of those cats' asses.

[Ulysses]

Neo,

You're just a bag of bile. Mildly amusing at times, but bilious and nasty most of the time.

Neo, ...

How do we know that the RNC are traitors? When even Moscow Mitch scolds them for it:

Thank You, Mitch, For Clearing This Admittedly Low Bar
The Republican leader in the Senate called January 6 exactly what it was after the Republican National Committee's shameful resolution last week.
By Jack Holmes

On Friday, the Republican National Committee approved a resolution censuring two House Republicans, Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger, for the grave sin of acknowledging the events of January 6 were bad and worthy of further investigation by a special committee in the House. In effect, the measure was meant to stamp "RINO" on their foreheads. In the process, though, the RNC branded the January 6 committee "a Democrat-led persecution of ordinary citizens engaged in legitimate political discourse," with the implication that January 6 constituted "legitimate political discourse." RNC chair Ronna McDaniel rushed out afterwards to insist this meant "legitimate political discourse that had nothing to do with violence at the Capitol," but the resolution itself made no distinction between violent and nonviolent advocates for Trump's election-fraud make-believe. There is nothing in the resolution to even suggest anything bad happened on January 6. The takeaway is that the committee looking into it is The Bad Thing.

The move crystalized the Republican Party's position on January 6: no big deal, shut up, stop asking questions. Nothing bad happened, and also anything bad that happened was the work of antifa and the FBI. Donald Trump doesn't like the January 6 committee, so neither do we.

It was refreshing, then, and worthy of note, that a major figure in the Republican Party was out Tuesday with a rebuke of this resolution. Here is Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, saying the simple truth about January the 6th.



... Thanks, Mitch. This might be a low bar, and McConnell probably has his own prerogatives mixed in here.

For example, notice that he fails to mention Dolt .45 or treasonous members of Congress like Mad Caw.

But it is a vital development when any Republican speaks frankly in public about the fact that the former standard-bearer of their party tried to stay in power in contravention of the expressed will of the American people. Not to put too fine a point on it, but this is the gravest crime you can commit as steward of a democratic republic. The RNC resolution went on and on about how Democrats are socialists who like inflation and the Green New Deal, all the while aligning themselves with an attempt to seize the presidency by force. The people involved in its crafting and passage should never get another invite to a dinner party, much less real influence over this country's affairs.

Right, like that will ever happen.

And yet, then there's the other head honcho for the Republicans in Congress: House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, he of the vanishing spine, who faced similar questions Tuesday about the giant dookie that members of his party dropped on the Constitution of this country a few days earlier. Here's what he's got:



Notice he refused to say whether he supports the resolution. At another point, he Olympic speed-walked away from a reporter. Also, the resolution does not say what he is now saying it says. It makes no mention of six RNC members, and in fact refers specifically to "ordinary citizens." CNN's Manu Raju reports a McCarthy aide says he got this "six" number from McDaniel, the RNC chair. But again, none of this is reflected in the actual resolution approved by the Republican National Committee. Besides, that someone was in Florida on the day of January 6 does not preclude the possibility they were involved in the run-up to the events, or otherwise played a role in the former president's sprawling campaign to stay in power after he lost the election.

FU, Kevin McCarthy of CALIFORNIA.

... In the immediate aftermath, characters like McCarthy and Lindsey Graham seemed to have had something of a come-to-Jesus moment. But others—nearly 150 other Republicans—voted to overturn the election results from various states immediately after the legislature was sacked by street goons allied with the same president whom they still insisted on aiding in his schemes to subvert the Constitution of this country. And now they've been joined by the McCarthys and the Grahams, whose fits of conscience were merely a momentary eclipse on the brightly burning stars of their own ambitions. It's a sorry place to be, and one where we need to acknowledge when unlikely people do the right thing. If we accept the Republican Party will continue to be a force in our politics through the years to come, this is a beggars-can't-be-choosers situation. So thanks, Mitch, for clearing the low bar.

That bar was really low for a Turtle to clamber over. Thanks, Jack.

[GoCubsGo]

Meh, apply the Occam's Douchebag theory to Moscow Mitch and it make more sense.

Talking about Jan 6, political infighting and keeping it in the news is not good for the party and the midterm elections.

FBI: Online sleuths' posts led to 2 arrests in Capitol riot
Hooray for online sleuths!

One of the men — Matthew Jason Beddingfield, 21, of Johnston County, North Carolina — was out on bail on an attempted first-degree murder charge on Jan 6. That's how Trumpettes are.

https://news.yahoo.com/fbi-arrests-trum ... 29503.html

When he stormed the Capitol, Beddingfield was on bail on a first-degree attempted murder charge in connection with the December 2019 shooting of a 17-year-old in a Walmart parking lot, when Beddingfield was 19. He was initially held on $1 million bail, but he secured pretrial release when bail was lowered to $100,000. After he stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6, Beddingfield pleaded guilty to a lesser charge in connection with the shooting. He was on probation in the shooting case when he was arrested Tuesday.

One would think that this would be a probation violation, but no mention.

[Vrede too]

He was placed on probation after Jan 6, so not a violation. If he'd been arrested earlier, before he "pleaded guilty to a lesser charge in connection with the shooting", he could have had his bail revoked, but that's moot after the plea. It's possible that the judge will take his conviction into account when sentencing him for Jan 6, though.

Lock him up!

Where's Merrick?

[Vrede too]

Where's Merrick?

The FBI did just arrest Beddingfield for Jan 6, so we can assume that a DoJ prosecution will follow.

As he ploddingly avoids easily proven crime after crime committed by Trump and family while waiting for ... what? -
a majority trump party in congress &
his chance to prosecute Fauci?
or just playing nice like Obama did with cheney war crimes?

What a lousy pick for AG - Milk-toast Merrick

Obama and Pelosi ignoring the cheney/Bush war crimes probably signaled to republicans that, unlike republicons, dems in congress don't prosecute politicians.
