  1. But couldn't you say that they have actually done just that with their decision today ? They've saved future Democrat presidents from having a Tennesee or Texas or Montana from keeping them off their ballots depending on how they interpret " engaged in insurrection ", without a charge and conviction, or disqualification from congress.
  2. I suppose this comes down to whether you're under the impression that " right to abortion " is mentioned in the Constitution. " Engaged in insurrection " is.
  3. And I remember thinking the opposite walking out of Fed Ex after the Buffalo game, following Sean Taylor's death.
  4. Getting a ruling through a state court would be all they need though, right ? Because no one has faced federal charges of insurrection.
  5. Each state would be able to decide for itself what " fomenting " ( technically " engaging in " ) would mean. So, yes.
  6. Unanimous Supreme Court restores Trump to Colorado ballot https://www.npr.org/2024/03/04/1230453714/supreme-court-trump-colorado-ballot
  7. Well, yeah we didnt clinch with that win , but it was more about the feeling and sitting at 9 -5 instead of 8 - 6 with two games left, we felt confident we would get there.
  8. Well, just under 32 years ago, this game, right here. December 13, 1992. My father, an old friend of his who had known me since I was born, and myself took a bus trip including tickets to the game and a ride to and from the racetrack in Laurel, the Saturday before the game. This was a nailbiter throughout, until the fumble at the 3:12 mark. We were sitting in the lower level seats, but in the opposite endzone. It took a while for people to figure out what happened, because I'm not sure everyone paid attention to or could see that Danny Copeland had the ball in his hand, running away from the pile. Was his knee down ? Was it a safety ? Was it a touchdown ? And then the signal came. The place erupted. The three of us grinning from ear to ear. Me, letting out a couple yells. There was still a few minutes left, but somehow, we knew. We had just beaten the Cowboys and we were.going to the playoffs. It's not my greatest of all time. That still belongs to Riggins 10 years earlier, but it's way up there.
  9. Been a while, but not that long since I've played. An older kid that lived a couple of houses down the road, charged me fifty cents a lesson, when I was seven years old. It's a great game. I still love playing.
  10. I understand money being used as an incentive for informants is not earth shattering and if everyone here knew about the reward offered, and my post about the exact amount that was offered to Steele , came off as redundant or " spamish ", my apologies. Yes, it's a small detail in a bigger picture that includes some things outside of the dossier, and those things are fair game, but part of that bigger picture also, are the actions " mistakes " and abnormalities by the FBI with regards to the investigation. Strzoke, and Comey were fired, Clinesmith was punished, and they should have been, and to me there seemed to be a lack of curiosity and scrutiny by some - not all of course - but particularly in the mainstream media, applied to the FBI. Trump shouldn't be giving them the fodder so to speak, but ... Basically with this ... To me, the FBI made it even worse.
  11. The Oxford dictionary defines sandwich as any meat cheese or filling between two pieces of bread. So, the question of whether a burrito or a wrap qualifies as a sandwich, seems to be a question of whether a tortilla qualifies as bread I vote not. Although a tortilla is described as an unleavened Flatbread, so ...😁
  12. It being basically debunked, is old news. But I wasn't aware of the offer made by the FBI, that's all.
  13. Yeah. Maybe so. I hadn't learned about it myself until fairly recently.
  14. Alexandria, Virginia(CNN)Shortly before the 2016 election, the FBI offered retired British spy Christopher Steele "up to $1 million" to prove the explosive allegations in his dossier about Donald Trump, a senior FBI analyst testified Tuesday. The cash offer was made during an overseas October 2016 meeting between Steele and several top FBI officials who were trying to corroborate Steele's claims that the Trump campaign was colluding with Russia to win the election. FBI supervisory analyst Brian Auten testified that Steele never got the money because he could not "prove the allegations."
  15. Might have been mentioned here before, but didn't know if everyone knew ... Ken Norton Jr's dad was once Heavyweight Champion. Beat a guy named Muhammad Ali.
  16. Guess I had forgotten he was with us for 11 seasons. Apparently Gibbs has donated 10 grand.
  17. https://newbostonpost.com/2024/02/20/massachusetts-high-school-girls-basketball-team-forfeits-after-transgender-opponent-injures-its-players/ A high school basketball game in Massachusetts was cut short earlier this month after one team forfeited due to injuries caused by a male transgender athlete on the other team — including at least one injury caught on video.
  18. Suspect who fatally shot 2 officers, 1 first responder was not permitted to own firearm https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/suspect-fatally-shot-2-officers-1-first-responder-was-not-permitted-fi-rcna139474
  19. Of course it did. https://www.cnn.com/2024/02/16/politics/navalny-death-biden-trump-divide/index.html https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-navalnys-death-no-doubt-putin-thugs-behind https://www.nytimes.com/live/2024/02/16/world/aleksei-navalny
  20. On just the age thing alone, not taking into account all the other things that will most certainly be considered by voters for both of them, come November... It's not just about a number. There are some 92 year olds that are still pretty sharp. There are some 82 year olds, who are not. I think some Democrat stratetegist are concerned there might be a difference between saying " Nicki Hailey " when you mean Nancy Pelosi, or thinking it's Friday night on the campaign trail, when it's Saturday, or even thinking magnets lose their pull ( ? ) when submerged in water, and ... Making a statement and stopping mid-sentence for four or five seconds only to say " Oh well, anyway... ", or speaking at an event and calling on someone who has been dead for years.
  21. If you try to tear from the top, it doesn't have the tension from the weight of the roll itself, as it would if it was under. Hey, it's not a big deal with me either way. 😁
