Re:Politics Date Posted:2025-09-11 08:49:05Copy HTML You’re confusing irrationality with concern. This country if fractured and heading for mass disruption and violence. On Saturday you’ll see the side I’m on. |

Re:Politics Date Posted:2025-09-11 12:37:53Copy HTML The British Ambassador to the United States was fired for defending Jerry Epstein in his first trial and said that he should never have been charged in the first place for the prostitution charged. If that wasn't enough he went on to say that Jerry Epstein had been his best friend and that he use to like hanging around with him a lot. Talk about people that should bit their own tongue off before they say anything more. Typical Brit, probably from one of those Irish Clans. If their not running around naked on their peddle beaches over there then their running the roads with the Epstein Clan to all wee hours of the morning. The most common excuse they tell their wife's is, I drank too much and had to stay our at Jerry's place until I sobered up enough, so I didn't lost my licence. It's only Blonds & American housewife's who will buy that storey, eh! But that's ok because as long as the old man isn't home they can have Roger the Dodger over for bridge and finger sandwiches, after. |

Do you mean Jeffrey Epstein, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeffrey_Epstein ? Yes I do. I should have just put J. Epstein and it would have be easier for you. |

Re:Politics Date Posted:2025-09-11 02:03:38Copy HTML Lord Mandelson was always a risky choice. He was fired twice under Tony Blair, this makes it a triple sacking. You're playing chess with Fate and Fate's winning.

Re:Politics Date Posted:2025-09-12 07:10:24Copy HTML Why is this Charlie Kirk held in such high esteem by the Maga right? Sorry to hear that anyone in America comes to an early death from a nutter with a gun, but why was his body carried by an honour guard in full dress uniforms and put on Airforce 1 or 2? He wasn't even a part of your Government and was known for attending high schools and up pushing Trump's lies so why all the fan fair? |

Because he was MAGA & got the younger people out to vote for Trump on two elections. Some say he would have been POTUS some day. |

He wasn't even a part of your Government and was known for attending high schools and up pushing Trump's lies so why all the fan fair? Why? Because he was a brilliant orator and champion of free speech and association, the bedrock of conservatism. No lefty, and I mean no lefty, ever beat him in a debate, know why? Because he had that elusive gift of common sense and decency, so lacking in Dem circles. You know nothing about him Pete but I will tell you this, he was a honest, decent Christian family man who had nothing untruthful to say. He verbally destroyed lefty’s for fun and in their hundreds, maybe that’s why your ilk hate him, that’s why they murdered him. |

Re:Politics Date Posted:2025-09-12 08:31:02Copy HTML He said a level of gun deaths was worth the price of the right to bear arms, he might have thought differently if he knew he would be one of the growing number of statistics. You're playing chess with Fate and Fate's winning.

Re:Politics Date Posted:2025-09-13 12:02:59Copy HTML "Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities" Voltaire said something like that & I think this is spot on for the Kirk assassination. |

Re:Politics Date Posted:2025-09-13 07:13:03Copy HTML Why don’t you try watching him and then you can speak with a little authority I have Art and he was front and centre at most of the Trump rallies which you must have missed. He run with Vance and Trumps older two sons. He would go like I said to the high schools and universities and start arguments with the students during their debates. If he was losing in anyway he would through his religion in the mix and say they didn't have any. His wife was on the tube today and being up set like would have been expected then she switched to religion and put him on a pedestal and went on how he was a such a good Christian for his kids and then she started reading out loud his favourite scriptures from the bible which tells me they both were not just far right supporters but also thought their religion was the only one out there. What stuck out to me was his trying to act rude and argumentative like Vance likes to do while standing behind Trump. |

Re:Politics Date Posted:2025-09-13 07:27:58Copy HTML I was just mentioning to the barfly lawyers at the Legion that a lot of these commentators need to be very careful with the climate of the country these days. Lots of hate all around. And who do you think is the biggest spreader of hate in America. Would you believe the clown you voted for 3 times in a row is. Have you ever seen him once not bashing the left or people from his own party that he don't think are towing the line. It the rights commentators that end up paying out billions for their broadcasting of lies and hate. |

Re:Politics Date Posted:2025-09-13 07:35:35Copy HTML Gone are the days of reasoned debate, now it's one side is right the other wrong and you'll deserve to die if you're on the wrong side. This applies to both Left and Right. Luckily I'm Centre. You're playing chess with Fate and Fate's winning.

However, the other side is guilty as well. |
