Re: The Most Fresh & Cordial Political Thread Ever

I'll have to watch the other Jon Stewart clip recently posted. But this one was fantastic. And this same bullshit has been going on well before Biden. So not posting this because it's a democrat appointee. It's just the general disdain government officials across the board have for honesty. The government, both sides, are the fucking problem. And if you want to blame 1 side more than the other, go for it. But you'll either just be being dishonest about your sides blame or bragging about being only 38% of the problem.



The American people are fucking awesome, our government is a fucking embarrassment.

Re: The Most Fresh & Cordial Political Thread Ever

Is there 1 capitol* city in any of the 50 states, that votes more right than left? Even in states like Mississippi or Alabama, etc., that are clearly right leaning overall? If not, which we all don't even need to actually lookup, why is that?

There is an easy answer to this. It is cities in general not just capitol cities. It involves land claims from centuries ago. It involves segregation. It is why all the rural areas vote mostly right.

This is a topic that actually interests me, I need to look on Amazon to see if there are at least somewhat recent books on this subject. Not saying above isn't at least part of it, but I feel like there has to be way more to it than that.

For the most part it is just that simple. Slaves obviously couldn’t buy land. Black people in general for years after slavery still couldn’t. There was safety in numbers, and they either migrated to or were segregated to their “pods” while white people bought or stole all the land. Unlike the weather it really never changed. Gave rise to every ghetto in the country and the hard right now wonders about crime in the inner cities. Lol. Didn’t pan out they way they hoped it would but what do you expect when you treat people like animals?

I love John Stewart. Honestly think he should be in Office. Watched the whole clip . I all so want to say I have two daughters who are married to Military men and have been living the a Military family lifestyle for a long time. Stewart makes very good points BUT so did she. Stewart tried to tie up audits and taking care of your personnel and she was right it's two different things. I work for the Maryland State Government and auditors and the budget writers are two different factions. Auditors are concerned with where is it and do you have and can account for all you are suppose to have.

Taking care of the Military personnel and their families is a whole separate issue. Deciding where that 850 billion goes is not up to the auditors but to budget committees(not sure what they are really called). No argument from me that more needs to be done but John was wrong saying the can't show them where the money went in an audit. I thought she was pretty prepared for him. To add this has been an issue for decades not just under Biden but my kids have lived through this with trump, Obama and Bush and they all failed!

I commend him for his patience. I found her to be quite disrespectful, and he didn't let it bother him.

I understand you can't account for every dollar, but to me it just came off like, no big deal, the cost of doing business means losing track of hundreds of millions of dollars and is ho-hum, whatever, and expected. And don't question it.

That's the thing they haven't lost track of any of the money it's where the money is going that is questionable and what it's NOT being spent on.

I'll have to re-listen today after work. Apparently I misunderstood. I blame the beer.
