Truly delusional, don't ya think?
Rod, I'll have to give you some credit if you are capable of understanding the incoherent babbling of the senile former Vice President.wink As I stated in a post several weeks ago, I can envision the possibility of his mental state deteriorating so rapidly that he'd be incapable of appearing in public by the end of the year. I seriously doubt he's capable of taking care of himself at present.

Rod, you are considerably more humorous that the leftist excrement on late night TV. Have a good day.😄

The Federal Judge Who Ended The Travel Mask Mandate

In other news....

I'll be interested to see how mask-wearing is going by the general public over the next two weeks as I drive to VA to pick up my new 20-incher at New Moon Telescopes (woo-woo!) and then to Texas for first light.  Back home by May 8.

Just as a basis of comparison I did a fair amount of pre-trip errands today, in the local shopping mall, the public library and a couple of other stores.  Every person I saw today indoors, staff and customers alike, was wearing a mask.  Zero exceptions....

I wonder what i will see at lunch in Cracker BArrel (Catfish for lunch - yum!) in Kentucky or at a Truck stop on I-30 in Texas.... I'll be masked indoors throughout my trip, keep my distance, plenty of hand sanitizer etc. of course.....

Dave
Dave, you're not one of these people driving around alone in your car wearing a mask, are you?grin

Edit:  Correction, they lost 348 up from 345 since the 3 liberal loons here who regularly watch those 2 networks have decided to leave as well. wink
Richard, I certainly hope they all get their promised refund for their CNN+ subscriptions.wink

What happens when the Democrats in the Senate don't get their way.

So the tyranny of the minority prevailed last night. And once Alito's ludicrous argument that abortion isn't a enumerated right in the constitution prevails, then any right that the righteous right doesn't like that isn't enumerated in the constitution becomes a potential target of their vindictive wrath since Alito's opinion will be a precedent that the mighty righties will pound that table over while simultaneously forgetting about the precedent behind Roe Vs Wade,  much in the same manner the conservative justices forgot about what they told congress about precedent during their confirmation hearings. Enumerated rights in the constitution? Since when did that become the gold standard? We don't have enumerated rights to vote, marry, cross state lines or have a right to privacy enumerated in the constitution. So, whenever and wherever the cons don't like something, a right that you may take for granted goes out the window when it gets to the courts...
Rod, you appear to be a bit upset.sad

William, I watched a bit of one of the videos where Chomsky is being interviewed and asked about Ukraine. He actually says something favorable about Trump's policy, then shortly afterward characterized him as the most dangerous man in history; not Hilter, Stalin, or Mao. Why would a sensible individual say something like that?

William, if you can find it, check out Ben Shapiro's show from yesterday. He addresses this and there is a great deal more to the matter than a brief clip of the "pallbearers".

Nancy Pelosi Denied Communion by the Catholic Archbishop.

Richard, that is good news. Support for and prompting  the killing of the unborn has consequences.
