lucklucky Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 Front web-pages of some Portuguese newspapers about the attack in Kabul. https://blasfemias.net/2021/08/26/quantas-vezes-estaria-escrita-a-palavra-trump-nestes-titulos-se-ele-ainda-fosse-o-presidente-dos-eua/ Pergunta da blogger : How many times there would be the word "Trump" in those if he was still President. There is no Biden in any of them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burncycle360 Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 This is the "weekend at bernies" administration. The party realized they could run the show and the president could just be a figurehead. Why should the president be one person when it can be a conglomerate? DNC Inc. Frankly I'm surprised one of the parties didn't try this sooner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim the Tank Nut Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 I wonder what Dr Jill is recommending as a medicine to pump Joe up? I suspect that they have been using chemical stimulants to keep the corpse moving but the problem with that approach is that you can't run that stuff forever. Does the White House have another problem in that their course of action with Taliban Joe is about to be derailed by the fact that his body and mind are going to fail sooner than they expected? It is an interesting situation that the puppeteers may not be able to keep the strings working long enough. The voting public must be so proud of what they have done. Even here on TankNet the usual suspects have stopped crowing about the grandness of the great Joe. I suspect someone will be along shortly to explain how all this is for the best.

Blunders and all, I think I would rather have Biden as a catatonic president than Kamala. That was never a choice. In any case let me posit something, tell us how it listens. Biden is titular, with his handler, who will never be held to account, whispering in Sloe Joe's ear, telling him what to say, what orders to issue. And if things backfire, no problem, the puppet master faces no public scrutiny and as for Sloe Joe, he has a soothsayer telling him everything is fine. He's doing an outstanding job. Now, however, if Kamala is in charge and we agree she still has all her mental faculties, then at least there is the chance she'll have some self-accountability. Some self-reflection of what her decisions might mean for her personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EchoFiveMike Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Keeping Creepy Joe as figurehead also is useful for continuing to direct the shame and humiliations upon straight, white, Christian men. In that facet, he's an ideal strawman, a meat puppet, a skin suit. It's part of the demoralization campaign. S/F....Ken M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikel2 Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Biden provides an image of moderation, even though I doubt he gets to pick the flavor of pudding he's served for dinner. This image is extremely important. If Kamala becomes president, this image of moderation goes away. Combined with her extreme dis-likability, this would be a disaster for democrats. Which leads me to the question - If Biden is removed and Kamala becomes president, does a new VP get nominated and continue to break the tie in the senate? Doesn't the senate need to confirm the VP nomination? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This image is extremely important. To be precise, Biden has never presented an image of moderation. He's had anger outbursts and kooky outbursts from the get-go. The press sanitizes his nonsense as much as possible, and low-info/low-IQ folks accept the narrative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Tan Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Im pretty sure that a big mid term loss will trigger the contingencies intended to cement the future of the Union of Federal Employees. With the bleeding wound that is Afghanistan, that will be a given. The contributors will demand special actions in light of poor results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I frequently discuss politics with a lefty black friend of mine, very smart man and a politics junkie. He had never heard the "The first clean articulate..." Biden clip. That alone would have destroyed the career of a trainload of republicans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
