Now having said that, you epitomize that deranged leftist mindset.  

It is funny to me that your entire reason for existence on this planet is to worship a political party.  

There has never been a single political issue upon which you have differed in your entire life with the Democrats.

You have not only not criticized one member ever, and in fact you have made excuses for the biggest racists and anti-semites in your party, those like Ilhan Omar and Rasheeda Tlaib. 

Quite sad.  

Tell me, do you have a DNC party platform statement on your wall, and do you get on your knees and light candles beneath it, and then recite the party lines by which you live?  smile

Honestly, your response is full of lies and misrepresentations, and what stands out most is the complete lack of self-awareness. Almost everything you accuse Rod of could just as easily describe your behavior in this forum. You defend the Republican Party no matter what. You push far-right talking points without much question. You rarely, if ever, criticize Trump or the GOP. You constantly make excuses for bigots and authoritarians. Do you not see the pattern here? How about you apply your criticism to yourself, fix your obvious flaws, and then get back to us?

This puts at risk many missions including those already returning data.

Strange support from someone who pretends to be interested in astronomy.

Don't worry, they can all go to work for ICE, as their budget is expected to increase to tens of billions of dollars by 2029. They will become the largest federal law enforcement agency without much effort. So, instead of fixing our broken immigration system, we are going to become a detention and deportation juggernaut that will undoubtedly have little oversight, cause all kinds of injustices, and trample human rights.

IMO, there's something wrong with your brain, it is broken...

Rich has a real soft spot for logical fallacies, but one of his all-time favorites is pretending that silence equals agreement. I've tried to explain to him that people can remain quiet for various reasons. Maybe they're busy, perhaps they're bored, or maybe they're just tired of arguing with Rich. However, using his logic, we can assume he believes in Bigfoot, the Tooth Fairy, and the Loch Ness Monster, since he has never explicitly denied them. Who knew we had a mythical creature enthusiast among us?

No, it has not, it has recently been used by the ilk of Jew haters like Ilhan Omar when she describes the Jewish population of Israel.  This is common knowledge, however you are free to make that false assertion.

If you want to submit that nonsense and excuse, simply show me a few cases in the past where someone prominent in politics used that phrase.  If it is commonly used, you should be able to provide ample evidence in a heartbeat.   I'll wait for Your evidence.

The phrase's origin is from 90s hip-hop music. It's even the title of a 1997 Puff Daddy song. It didn't even originate in politics. There is even a movie, "All about the Benjamins," starring Ice Cube, which was released in 2002. The point is, it's a phrase that has been part of the American vernacular long before Ilhan Omar uttered it, and just because you want to latch onto it as anti-semitic and use it as a cudgel against Rod does not change the fact that it's a common phrase. You right-wingers may take issue with it, but hardly anyone else does, and anyone without an agenda, and who is not merely looking for a gotcha moment to go on the attack, can tell from context and intent that Rod was not using it in an anti-semitic way. But hey, you do you; we all know that you are constantly looking for something to nitpick or split hairs over.

That's the issue, not the context in which Ice Cube or Puff Daddy used it.

Ilhan Omar was not using the phrase in remotely the same context that your examples used it. 

Rod used it in the context of defending the vile cretinous Democrat Ilhan Omar.

I will assert this, Rod was attempting to use that term purposely to try and equate the way that Omar used the words to imply that her context was no big deal when it is.  

He knows what HER context and HER meaning was in her use of those words but yet he will defend HER for one reason and one reason only, and that is because she has a D after her name.  

And that shows Me one thing, which is that the Most important attribute that another person possesses, in Rod's eyes, is that the person is a Democrat.  

That is the biggest attribute that Rod Looks to when deciding whether he will support that person.

IF they are a Democrat and they are a racist, that's ok with him, and he'll defend them.  

IF the person is a Republican, and they are a racist, he will excoriate that person.

Rod's Singular criteria for judging a person's character is whether or not they are a Democrat, because he worships the Democrat party and will never go against them, and more importantly he will defend that person to his last breath.  

As I stated, his political party is his God and his very religion.  smile

You have thrown around your accusations of antisemitism so broadly and without proper justification that they have no meaning anymore. There is hardly anyone left on this forum whom you have not accused of antisemitism at one time or another. The intensity of your response to Rod is entirely out of proportion with what he wrote since reasonable people could read Rod's post without ever seeing it as antisemitic. Your rashness in weaponizing common phrases like this only makes you look ridiculous and like you can't help but make everything a personal vendetta.

Do You think I care about your blather?  <-- Dismissive rhetoric that is an ad hominem instead of addressing Rod's comments.

It was almost a miracle that you were able to come up with One Democrat that you've criticized.  <-- Moving the goal posts since Rich said Rod couldn't even come up with one example, so he did, but, of course, that is not now good enough.

I give you credit for the one, but my guess is that you can't come up with one other.  <-- Argument from silence since Rich is assuming since Rod only came up with one, he can't come up with another.

I'll look back at your Gavin Newsome thread to see what you actually stated about the guy.  <-- Amazing! Nothing wrong with this statement.

And sorry, but NPR is simply a 2nd wing of the marxist Dem party.  I recall very readily the lies that their leader made when she testified in front of the House w/in the last few months.  She lied so much and was called out over and over having to retract her lies right then and there when she was confronted directly and in real time regarding her continuous lies that were never ending. <-- Haha! This is just one huge logical fallacy after another, but basically, since you don't agree with NPR, then they must be wrong.

It was a total and complete embarrassment for both herself and the public broadcasting service. <-- Ridiculing based on your emotional judgment, not facts.

Perhaps next time, use a credible source in your link. <-- Circular reasoning: Your link is not credible. Why? Because I said so.

He's worse than a troll. Rich is an emotional and prejudiced person who is only here to vent his pent-up anger at imaginary enemies. Haha. Just look at his last response to Rod. It's pretty pathetic considering he fancies himself to be quite the debater who only deals with facts.

Really seems to bother you that this administration is bringing us back to fiscal sanity, and it appears that we're already recovering mightily over the last leftist/Marxist Democrat administration.

Are you still seething James over the fact that virtually ALL of Your Doomsday scenarios have not come to fruition?

How's that stock market working for you James, with the S&500 breaking records including the longest win streak ever?   

How's that inflation rate working for you James, being that it is at a 5 year low?

How are those gas prices working for you James, having dropped to the lowest levels in ages?  I paid $2.35 per gallon yesterday, a far cry from the $5.00 per gallon that Biden got us to at one point.  

How's the unemployment working for you?  The numbers were better than predicted by the Feds.

How does it make you feel to know that every single prediction You and those on the radical left made didn't materialize?
 
You were wrong on every single issue for which You predicted doomsday.

But then, that's just another false claim and more fear mongering from you isn't it?  smile

Haha.  Changing the subject doesn’t address anything I said about your posting style. You’ve misrepresented my views (I didn’t predict any doomsday scenarios), and you’re cherry-picking data. What about the national debt, housing affordability, or the overall cost of living?

If anyone seems emotional here, it’s you by resorting to ridicule, mockery, sweeping generalizations, and false comparisons. And no, most experts wouldn’t say this administration is restoring fiscal sanity, especially considering the massive spending in the BBB legislation.

How about those fuel costs?   They're at the lowest I remember in the last 4 years or more. I do remember in 2022, that Under Biden the costs of gas was at the Highest level in US History, even adjusted for inflation.  You radical leftists claimed that fuel costs would go through the roof if we intervened in the War between Israel and Iran.  So YOU were wrong about that also.

What happened to WWIII??  YOU and other radical leftists made the claim that Iran would retaliate so badly, that China, Russia, and even South Africa and Brazil would join Iran and we would have boots on the ground,

You and the rest of the radical left were wrong about that as well.  

How about the tariffs? YOU and every other leftist on this forum became hysterical, warning that we wouldn't have FOOD on the plate because Prices would be so GD high that there wouldn't be any food.

Just MORE Hysterical radical leftist lies coming out of your mouth and the rest of the psychotic leftists here and everywhere else in this country.

Do YOU want to give us any MORE warnings James, any more HYSTERICAL insane Bullshit predictions you what to make James?

After all, the egg is still dripping off your eyebrows, chin, and nose.  

How 'bout you add some bacon and toast to hang off your face along with those eggs?  wink

Feel free to pump out more of the doomsday scenarios that you do on a regular basis.  smile

Haha. Your interpretation of things always includes imagined scenarios or intentions that no one expressed. We've pointed this out several times. That is, you build arguments around things that weren't said or implied. This pattern of yours is completely ingrained in your DNA, and it seems impossible for you to engage with what's being said. It's a peculiar reality that you seem to inhabit.

One of his psychotic notions is that he's in my head 24/7. Life is too short, he can go on with his fantasies, but I'm going to try and ignore the crazy man just as most of us here do with his hysterical posts no one reads or cares to respond to.

I agree, life is too short. I let myself get dragged into this when he was outlandishly attacking Rod (of all people) as an anti-semite. I'm sure a doctor could write an entire textbook about his constant engagement with imaginary enemies alone, not to mention all of his other psychotic breaks with reality.
