Kevin McCarthy: Russia Wouldn't Have Invaded Ukraine If

Posted By Mel Maki

You even conform your memory to fit your politics.  I remember saying it would have been better if we had sent more sooner. Very difficult to argue with that statement.
Politically, you want to trump this up to me saying Russia would not have invaded if we had sent more sooner.

Either way, it doesn't matter to Putin, he made up his mind on this one long ago...   
Gawd, you are a case. If I didn't say the words you thought I said, well, well you know what I meant to say! Just because I didn't say it, well, you liberals know dam well my conversation was along those lines! And even if it wasn't, well, well, I dam sure implied it!  Christ, Rod, take a hike! Your intellect is showing!
And no, I don't have a link for that.

Anyone with half a brain can see the these statements are a another way of saying the same thing...
What selective amnesia? Don't use my name in your "writing." I said only that more weapons sooner would have been better.

Fitting that you respond with, "Lol!"
You say you got the quote from the thread in question. You did not. That is a quote from a thread titled, "Russians Bombing
Nuclear Power Plants" 
If one quotes a person it does not mean that he shares that opinion. 
You are a blockhead or dishonest. Probably both. It certainly takes more time than anybody has to find out where you are going wrong.

Here's your entire post #6 from the thread in question entitled, " Russians Bombing Nuclear Power Plants":
"JFK did have a lot of staying power. Even after the Bay of Pigs his popularity remained high."
"Kevin McCarthy is  claiming he wanted to get weapons to Ukraine earlier but Biden said wait until they invade."

Nowhere did you place anything in quotations that would indicate you were quoting somebody else. Nor did you link to any citation in that post to indicate the same.
You're either being a blockhead, disingenuous, if not dishonest or senile...
Where does "it directly refute..."

I knew you could not answer. 
To blockhead and dishonest I can add, "Hey, you don't read too good!"

So you can't tell me in a few words.

The Federal Judge Who Ended The Travel Mask Mandate

Posted By Mel Maki

Very few people in S. Oregon are wearing a mask. Banks, grocery stores, it is rare.

There was good compliance when people knew of people that were sick. People got well and the masks came off.

Posted By Mel Maki

In the US there might be three people in a hundred that know who Marjorie Taylor Greene is. But probably not!
