OTOH, Trump keeps telling us how smart he is and how much he knows. Even if he didn't know that people died from the flu. And his shill Navarro believes it's smarter to trust Trumps intuition than the science. airdvr, go to the back of the class. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Her speeches have recommended that people listen to climate scientists, and not media deniers. Compare that to Trump, who claims that doctors are amazed by how much he knows about virology, and that he is an intellectual because his uncle taught at MIT. One of those people is lying through his teeth. One is not. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It would seem that if we do the exact opposite of what the Mango Mussolini says, if we take every statement he makes and reverse it, we'd be doing the right thing. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The number of times they simply take the truth and run with it is staggering. What they did with the Mormons and the Scientologists was brutal. Absolutely hilarious and they didn't have to make up any of it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ryoder 1,590 #1359 April 10, 2020 From another forum I frequent, this is an excerpt from a physician working in a Georgia hospital: I hate that I have to risk my life to take care of so many of Georgia's right wing deniers. I have patients who refuse to get tested for covid 19 or refuse my advice because this is still all a hoax by the left wing.........I have had to put about 8 of them on a vent , all 8 lived but these idiots are making it hard for people who followed all the rules and still get sick...except in 4 weeks, we won't have any ventilators for them.

When did "perfect" start meaning free, and "large", and "full"? It seems more likely, if not more logical, that the multiple definitions are used in an attempt to make the statement ambiguous, thus covering more area when challenged. BUt again - who can be sure, when we are in at least the second language any of this text was interpreted from. Aramaic to Latin, then English? Aramaic to Greek, then English? Isn't it always nice when you can look back and add your own definitions after the fact, stating what someone meant rather than what was written?
