sounds like you, and your kid, made some expensive choices

Hope it all goes well for you
January 24, 2026 at 4:34 PM
which is fine, good on ya, but those are your choices
January 24, 2026 at 4:26 PM
Not a straw man at all. You're claiming financial victimhood in comparison to some imagined European paradise, which is quite frankly embarrassing in someone old enough to have college age children.

if your kid picked a $45K/yr college, you both made some self-indulgent luxury choices.

Do you have any exposure to or knowledge of systems where a university education is "free"?
January 24, 2026 at 4:06 PM
which university?

In 2020, Biden could say, I love my son, I'm proud of the way he turned his life around

He couldn't say that second part in 2016

His shady business dealings are too numerous to list

"In 2016, Biden began a relationship with his brother's widow, Hallie Olivere Biden"
That shit don't play in Peoria

Good lord. Obama very much did not run on single payer health care.`

Bill Clinton ran on a massive expansion of the health care system, and balancing the budget through tax increases, which he did.
January 24, 2026 at 5:02 AM
I can't speak to all of them, but Clinton, Obama and Biden all ran slightly left of the center of the Democratic Party

So, like this ridiculous little girl, you don't live in the district?
January 24, 2026 at 4:02 AM
good god
January 24, 2026 at 4:01 AM
you are a self-parody of immaturity and entitlement

Did you even move into the district yet, you ridiculous little person?
January 24, 2026 at 4:00 AM
If by that you mean she was really, really popular with Deomcrats, you have a point
January 24, 2026 at 3:51 AM
the way everyone erases HRC's popularity with, you know, Democrats, in these discussions drives me crazy

and people get really mad when I mention what Hunter was up to in 2016
January 24, 2026 at 3:51 AM
My thinking: McCain probably wouldn't have picked Palin if HRC had been the nominee, but yeah, HRC would've won, but she wouldn't have had Obama's reach-- no IN, no NC, maybe not OH, IA and FL-- or coattails-- no Franken, no supermajority
January 24, 2026 at 3:49 AM
How do you think Biden, as a 2016 candidate, would have addressed the fact that Hunter was not only actively using drugs, still employed in shady business deals he owed to peddling his father's name and office, and fucking his recently dead brother's widow?
January 24, 2026 at 3:46 AM
That weak candidate almost beat the political phenomenon that was Barack Obama in 2008, when her vote for the Iraq War loomed much larger
January 24, 2026 at 3:42 AM
Hillary Clinton was extremely popular among Democrats in 2016. Biden would've been kicking up a hornet's nest if he had challenged her.

And what Obama saw up close was that JRB was raw from Beau's death. Even when he was in office, some of Biden's worst moments were triggered by grief over his sons
January 24, 2026 at 3:41 AM
I hope and pray you're right about that

I'm not sure
January 23, 2026 at 8:09 PM
do you also speak in gibberish when you're in a restaurant or talking to your neighbors?
January 23, 2026 at 7:45 PM
When was Obama anti-choice?
January 23, 2026 at 7:33 PM
god almighty

I thought the people whining that the government wouldn't give them an allowance were pathetic
January 23, 2026 at 5:57 PM
when ?

or do you mean he said something like "safe legal and rare" or "we must respect the views of our fellow Americans" (sounds more like him) and the kind of people desperate to see themselves as THROWN UNDER THE BUS! got hysterical because they like the view from the cross?
January 23, 2026 at 5:43 PM
"Obama wasn't pro choice"

what?
January 23, 2026 at 5:38 PM
which Democrat do you think is gonna strip which rights away?
January 23, 2026 at 5:37 PM
the polls evolved

gay marriage hero Joe Biden co-sponsored the Defense Of Marriage Act in the 90s

I guess he temporarily forgot about that day in the 50s his dad told him the two guys kissing just loved each other like anybody else
