According to one of my music buds on Zuckerberg, Johnny Cash is playing the Louis Armstrong role in Ken Burn's latest plug and chug.

Howard Dean
@GovHowardDean

Actually the Supreme Court is NOT for life. The Constitution says the federal bench is for life. Which means Supreme Court Justices can be rotated off onto district courts. Since two of them were put on illegitimately, that is important to know.

Neat idea Dean. Maybe DJT can rotate out the wise latina and Ruthie and we'll see how that works.

I watched the first installment of Ken Burn's documentary last night.

I never "knew" that the Country music would have never happened without African slaves bringing the banjo.

But he reminded me every 5 minutes last night.

Funny thing, my hillbilly relatives had lots of fiddles and guitars, but I don't remember ever seeing one of those essential banjos:)

[henry]

You mean Deliverance wasn't a documentary on country music?

[MissMarple2]

My grandad, whose parents emigrated here from Denmark in the 1880's, had a banjo. He used to play it at the pressman's union hall.

I think there was a fad for them in the 1920's.

Old white Democrat tries to relate to black crowd via story of yelling at black kids to get their greasy pomade hair out of the pool with their crime gangs & rusty straight razors before threatening to take a chain to them.

There's NOTHING more classically racist than Joe Biden

=====================================

Whether Corn Pop was a real person or not (there was an obituary in 2016 someone found with a guy with that nickname) it doesn't matter. The way Biden told the story, like the only way those black kids could relate to him was hearing a story about gangs, was simply condescending and racist.

Daughter's homeowner's insurance went up. So she checked Zillow, called around, and checked with the insurance company.

This house, which she purchased 3 years ago for $70,000, would now reasonably sell for around $100,000.

Now part of this is because we are near a small private university (and much as I hate to admit it, that dang electric express bus line) BUT that is a pretty fair appreciation in 3 years, especially since we are not in California or a big northeastern city.

I attribute it to Trump being president. No one will ever convince me otherwise.

[MissMarple2]

IF Biden is the nominee, it behooves us to pay attention to who he names as VP candidate.

If Hillary, we will know a deal was cut and he will resign in a month or two.

Anyone else, we need to pay attention because Biden has had 2 aneurysms, and it is obvious he is not in good health.

Vance should be in prison for his many abuses of power.

Wasn't Vance involved in the non-prosecution slap on the wrist of Epstein back in 2005? He should be persona non grata everywhere.

"Democrats are setting the stage to do something Republicans should have been doing for 100 years: nullifying SCOTUS rulings by simply ignoring them.

They’re going to lose Roe v. Wade. It’s bad law. The Dems know it. And all of this nonsense is for the purpose of intimidating Justice Kavanaugh, or failing that, delegitimizing the Court’s ruling when Roe is overturned.

Andrew Jackson famously said, “John Marshall has made his decision; now let him enforce it” with respect to Worcester v. Georgia which struck down a law that imposes regulations on the comings and goings of white people in Native American’s land- suggesting that Native Americans enjoyed some degree of sovereignty in their relationship with U.S. governments.

Democrats have a long history of defiance. We ought not only prepare for it, but learn a few things from it." –– Paul Strauss

[GUS]

So a guy called CORN POP actually existed. So fucking what. The RANCID MFM seems to think this validates Biden's story.
If Biden's story was true, he left out the part about him running like a sissy all the while shitting his pants. There is NO CHANCE that his story is true.
Biden is a beta. He talks big, but he's pansy.
The former head of the DELAWARE NAACP says it's true!!! Biden stood his ground.

HOW THE FUCK WOULD THIS GURGLING LIBTARD POSSIBLY KNOW THIS??

[GUS]

Yes CORN POP existed. How does that prove Biden's story. Juanita Broaddrick exists. By the logic of the MFM, that proves Clinton raped her.

[GUS]

The ROMANS GANG existed in Delaware in the 60's.

Do you know what that proves. That Biden knew the ROMAN'S gang had existed in the 60's. Nothing else.

[MissMarple2]

GUS,

The guy known as "Corn Pop" died in 2016. You cannot convince me that Biden would have told that story if the guy was still alive.

How come we have never, ever heard this story before now? Why didn't he campaign in Delaware with it back when he was the VP candidate or a Senate candidate? Why didn't he have "Corn Pop" (who supposedly came to be a good friend) come visit him in DC? It would have been a great photo op.

Biden is full of it. This is just a lie like his plagiarism and other stuff he has pulled.

A thought.

If are going to take out a huge (land wise) oil processing facility like Abaquiq using drones and cruise missles wouldn’t you want specific target coordinates? How would you get those for exact guidance especially for objects like stabilization towers who’s radar profile would be almost nil.

You would bribe someone inside to tag each target with GPS tags, that’s how.

Again my 2 cents.
