There is (currently) a segment of the population that wants things to be clear 
cut. Up-down, left-right, north-south, male-female.

I think (I'm spitballing here, so don't get bent out of shape) that that 
segment gets their knickers in a twist when something (anything) doesn't fall 
into clean lines one way or the other. As I've gotten older, I have learned 
that almost no topic falls into the either-or category. 


The whole LGBTQ (can we pick one letter please? We will run out of alphabet.) 
is a great example. The fact is that people have never been just two sexes. 
There are, in fact, a whole range of expressions of sex that are too numerous 
to count. Some people can qualify as both, for example.

At any rate, when people start shouting, my inclination is to cross over to the 
other side of the street.

To me, socialism is the government taking all or part of the money, 
not the property, and then giving everyone back what they need.


Otto Von Bismark is basically the father of modern, organized public 
welfare systems.  He was also a firm supporter of the Imperial 
government of Germany and staunchly opposed to socialism.  He observed 
that most people in the socialist movement didn't actually care about 
the classism and redistribution of wealth; they just wanted to know that 
when they're too old or too sick to work that they'll still be ok.  So 
he realized he could neuter the socialist movement if he just gave 
people the social safety net.  And so he did.


The point being that you can provide social services without being 
socialist, and in fact it can be used a tool to keep socialists from 
getting too powerful.  And who knows, maybe someday you'll be too old or 
too sick to work too.

I equate government owing everything with communism.  All property, all 
businesses.  Everything.  
I don’t care enough to read Marx to learn the true meaning.  

To me, socialism is the government taking all or part of the money, not the 
property, and then giving everyone back what they need.  

We have and have had weird things in the country.  
I imagine most of you don’t recall price controls by Nixon...  Freeze on 
all wages and prices.  

Our 5th amendment allows the guvmnt to take your private property, but there 
must be due process and equity.  

Taking a bunch of buildings in a rundown part of town, then selling them all to

Part of the problem with discussing socialism is inconsistent definitions.  
There are people saying they are "socialist" who think that just means the 
government providing public welfare services.  The original definition is 
government controlling the economy.  


Welfare is only socialist in the same way that any other government spending is 
"socialist" in that some money is taken out of one sector the economy (tax) and 
redirected to another one (spend).  If that's socialism then all governments 
have always been socialist ever since the dawn of time.  And if having a formal 
system in place to help people is socialist then the Mongol Horde was socialist 
and so were Caribbean pirates and Powhatan Indians.  Oh and Otto Von Bismark 
too.  (Hint: none of those are socialist)


There's also commonly assumed to be an equivalency between socialism and 
communism.  Communism is marked by rigid authoritarianism, statism, and 
nationalism.  They figure their socialist dreams will not be realized without 
rigidly applied force.  All communists are socialist, but not all socialists 
are communist.


Here are some simple guidelines:

If they're seizing control of private companies and taking direct control of 
them, then they're socialist.  


If they're doing the above while also sending dissenters to be re-educated in 
the gulag then they're communist.  


If they're not doing the above and you're calling them Communist then you are 
incorrect.

Title: Re: [AFMUG] OT: The Silence is deafening..


For four years all we heard on the nightly news was Russia influence was the only way Trump won.  It was miserable.  Presidents were disliked in the past and the other side would always go after them.  Clinton, Bush, Obama were all attacked and demonized in some form or another by the other side.  What changed in 2016 is that the losing side decided it wasn't enough to attack the man, they had to attack the process.  I knew this wasn't going to turn out well when they started it.  It was never ending for 4 years,  Trump rigged the election via the Russians.  He was an illegitimate president.  Even with Bush vs Gore, when Bush won there was some grumbling.  But in the end everything settled down and the process was accepted and we went on with the normal attacks against the man.

The only way this election would have went well, would have been a landslide for either man.  We didn't get that.  So now we are in a place where 70+ million people in this country are being asked to accept a very close race.  Isn't going to happen.  Biden will be our next president.  The country will still stay very divided.  Hopefully the republicans will hold the majority in the senate give us a stop gap.  At the end of the day a government in gridlock can do the least amount of damage.

I can just image the damage that would have been done if the roles were reversed.  If Trump held the slim margin and was going to be in for a second term.  Do you really think Biden and his camp won't be doing the same thing Trump is doing?  Look what they did when Hillary lost.  Stacey Abrams in GA still claims she won her election two years ago.  The riots would have been off the charts.

Was reading another article from one of the
mainstreams about what happens if there is no
certification and the congress has to vote in a new
potus, apparently it's not limited to the two
candidates, it's got to do with aggregate votes and
would potentially leave bernie sanders in a position
to be president. Its was MSM and they're full of shit
all the time but it sounded good. Can you imagine
that, the dnc fucked this guy over twice in a
concerted effort, particularly in 2016 when he had a
real good chance of beating the republican., and then
he pulls that feat off. I'd love it. I hate his
policies, and hed have zero chance of implementing 95
percent of them, but I'd pay to watch that happen.

A whole string of countries approved use of Remdesivir for Covid19 within a few 
months time period in the spring of 2020. The US was right in the middle of the

else did. It would be more noteworthy if they didn't . 
The Trump administration took credit for increasing supply of Remdesivir 
through "an Amazing deal with Gilead" on June 29th. 
But on May 5th (almost 2 months before that), Gilead announced that they 
increased supply by voluntarily licensing production to generic drug 
manufacturers in India and Pakistan. 

Do I thank Gilead for making what people want to buy, or thank Trump for asking 
Gilead to sell the product that they manufactured for the purpose of selling? 
It might be just as appropriate to thank the invisible hand of the free market 
because I can't imagine a scenario where Gilead makes the product and then 
doesn't sell it to hospitals. If we had a president Clinton or presidents

Having the DOJ chase down military people who vote out of state for 
years because of normal military transfers ( 3K so far in NV ) which has 
been the normal state of affairs for over 70 years and characterize that 
as voter fraud is going a little bit too far in my book.  I still am 
hoping that he is going after that more about raising money than 
actually thinking he can corrupt the belief in the voting system.

Really really really disliked Hillary.
I don’t know of anyone that voted for Trump because they liked him.  
Everyone I know thought he was an ass hat from the get go.
Second, you all have seen, first hand, for 4 years how little a 
president can actually do to harm a country.  Not much.  He didn’t 
start any wars so that is about the most damaging thing he can do.  He 
didn’t act on the virus properly but lots of countries fall into the 
same category. He embarrassed us on the world stage.  That is about 
it. Congress can affect us.  Presidents not so much.
We have always had nationalists here.  It is part of the culture.  
Some call it patriotism. I don’t think it is bad. I am not a 
globalist.  I support our country and our national interests above 
other nations.  Part of rooting for the home team.  Being a patriot is 
a far stretch from dictatorship.

they're full of shit all the time but it sounded good. Can you
imagine that, the dnc fucked this guy over twice in a concerted
effort, particularly in 2016 when he had a real good chance of
beating the republican., and then he pulls that feat off. I'd love
it. I hate his policies, and hed have zero chance of implementing
95 percent of them, but I'd pay to watch that happen.

Re: [AFMUG] OT: The Silence is deafening..

2020-11-11 Thread Bill Prince

  
  
Oh. Poser. Now that's an interesting descriptor that had not come
  to mind for me. The ones that I've often thought of were words
  like fraud, cheat, con man, charlatan, crook, phony, racketeer,
  flim flam man, grifter, hustler, and so on. 

Anyone who's been willing to look has to realize that with him
  everything is a show or a production of some kind. What he's
  willing to show you is what he wants you to see, not what he is
  actually doing. For that, you need to look when he thinks the
  cameras are not rolling. As someone once said, the true test of a
  person's character is what he does when he thinks no one is
  looking. If it's not what he wants you to see, it is at least a
  distraction to draw your attention away. I guess he is more of a
  sleight of hand artist or illusionist, except that he's not
  actually much of an artist either.

The whole "fraudulent election" scam is yet another cover for
  what is probably going on. Some hints that we've gotten in the
  last week or so is (1) The soliciting of donations for people
  wanting to contest the election have in the small print that the
  funds can (will?) be used to retire campaign finance debt. (2) The
  "fight" will enrage/motivate his base to fire them up for the
  coming runoff election in Georgia in January, (3) Give him time to
  wreck more stuff like replacing as many of the officials in the
  Pentagon as he can. (4) Probably other things that no one has
  discovered yet.

We only have about 70 days left for the clown show, but no one is
  laughing. The vote counts that have to be recounted will be
  recounted, they will probably find a handful of actual fraudulent
  votes, but none of them will amount to to the tens of thousands of
  votes that would be needed to overturn the election.

said “two Corinthians”.  I knew at that moment that he had

  What a fake, ignorant, poser.  
   
  Then later he was quoted as saying he does not read

I just find it hard to believe that either
  one of these clowns is the best we can do. Both in their
  upper 70's. One cares so little about the office he will
  say anything. The other, well I am just not sure how much
  gas he has in the tank. It would be great if someone
  honest would run and get elected but our system makes that
  an impossibility.
   
  We have a minimum age for presidents. The founders
never thought anyone in their 70's would be alive and
able to hold office. We should have an amendment for a
maximum age for President, Congress and Senate. For god
sake there is an age limit for commercial pilots and FAA
controllers. Should there be one for an important
office? What was the crypt keeper that died  a while
back? Strom Thurman or something? I think he was old
enough he actually owned slaves. Ok maybe not owned them
but his uncle probably did.

Well, I hate to tell you but those cages were built during Obama's time in 
office. And really, calling them cages is just a bit on the inflammatory side. 
They are detention centers. Technically, you can call anything a cage with a 
boundary. Unless you are going to ask the CBP to stop doing their job, they are 
going to have to detain people.  

We can agree the immigration issue is a mess. Nobody in 30 years has really 
tried to fix it. We need a way for those who want to come here, who have an 
intent to work, no or little criminal history, to do so in an expeditious and 
inexpensive way. To continue on our current path of immigration dooms our 
economy to ruin as we are not producing enough offspring for a growing economy 
on our own.  You don't even have to argue about if it is right or wrong to have 
borders enforced. It is more about economic security than anything else.

Well, I hate to tell you but those cages were built during Obama's time in
office. And really, calling them cages is just a bit on the
inflammatory side. They are detention centers. Technically, you can call
anything a cage with a boundary. Unless you are going to ask the CBP to
stop doing their job, they are going to have to detain people.

We can agree the immigration issue is a mess. Nobody in 30 years has really
tried to fix it. We need a way for those who want to come here, who have an
intent to work, no or little criminal history, to do so in an expeditious
and inexpensive way. To continue on our current path of immigration dooms
our economy to ruin as we are not producing enough offspring for a growing
economy on our own.  You don't even have to argue about if it is right or
wrong to have borders enforced. It is more about economic security than
anything else.

Re: [AFMUG] OT: The Silence is deafening..

2020-11-11 Thread chuck
Saying something is “wrong” is almost always a statement of opinion, not fact.  

Children in cages vs children in holding areas created our of cyclone fence 
materials... well what do you do when you have to contain a large bunch of 
people?  The media created the hysteria.  Like saying they had to drink from 
toilets.  No, it was a sink built into the top of a toilet.

It was an expedient solution... and it was started during the Obama 
administration.  Funny, folks like MSNBC and CNN  always seem to leave that 
last bit unsaid...

You would have to be pretty cold hearted to think separation of families is not 
wrong.  But it happens every single day when DCFS types of organizations have 
to remove children out of bad environments.  Sometimes the law separates 
children from families.  There is an old saying “the law is an ass”.  

But a good solution came out of it – wait in Mexico.  I think this was Trumps’ 
best act.  

Bans on people coming from terrorist exporting nations is not the worst way of 
trying to prevent a terrorist attack.  Problem is Trump does not seem to be 
able to understand the difference between a peaceful religious Islamic human 
from a radicalized terrorist.  I have a  big problem treating groups of people 
differently based on their religion.  That is one of the reason this nation 
exists in the first place.  I don’t have a problem with a travel ban from hot 
spots of bad people.  

Pipes through any lands?  I am ok with fiber optic cables, pipe lines,  any 
necessary infrastructure to be buried anywhere.  The 5th amendment lays the 
groundwork for doing this.  As long as the underlying property owners received 
due process and fair compensation.  Same as for highways and power lines.  
Including national parks and monuments.  It does not harm the land.  I am also 
OK with drilling oil wells almost anywhere.  These things are not wrong - to 
me.  

But again, wrong is a statement of opinion, not fact.  

I am not going to like it when Biden expands some national monuments that Obama 
and Clinton tagged Utah with on their way out of office and Trump restored to 
their original state.  I look at those like they took a large can of red spray 
paint and wrote their name on the red rocks of our Southern area so they could 
claim them as legacy.  They are/were already federal lands, already under NEPA 
protection no need for extra designation.  But it will happen.  And that means 
no more cell phone towers out there and more hikers attracted to the “new 
national monuments” and more hikers dying of thirst in the summer because their 
phones don’t work

So Mr. President (elect), tag our state with your graffiti, kill some hikers... 
 see, I can do rhetoric too!

I think the point where I totally lost any particle of hope or respect or 
interest I had for Trump was during his first campaign.  

He was ham fistedly trying to quote 2nd Corinthians.  He said “two 
Corinthians”.  I knew at that moment that he had never read scriptures nor had 
listened in church or Sunday school provided he ever attended.  
What a fake, ignorant, poser.  

Then later he was quoted as saying he does not read books.  So obviously not a 
student of history.  Presidents need a good foundation in history to inform 
their decision making.  But we later found out that only Fox news and ratings 
informed his decision making.  

I really think he thought of the presidency in the same vein as the Miss 
America pageant.So he won the tiara.  Screw the concept of earning his 
paycheck.

I don’t agree at all.  Trump got elected because more than half the country 
really really really disliked Hillary.

Really really really disliked Hillary.

I don’t know of anyone that voted for Trump because they liked him.  Everyone I 
know thought he was an ass hat from the get go.  

Second, you all have seen, first hand, for 4 years how little a president can 
actually do to harm a country.  Not much.  He didn’t start any wars so that is 
about the most damaging thing he can do.  He didn’t act on the virus properly 
but lots of countries fall into the same category.  He embarrassed us on the 
world stage.  That is about it.  Congress can affect us.  Presidents not so 
much.  

We have always had nationalists here.  It is part of the culture.  Some call it 
patriotism. I don’t think it is bad.  I am not a globalist.  I support our 
country and our national interests above other nations.  Part of rooting for 
the home team.  Being a patriot is a far stretch from dictatorship.

Declaring any large movement today, meaning ones with millions of people in
it, can't be compared to Nazis. You need to look back at history. not
saying it couldn't eventually work its way to something closer. But it
isn't even close. To say it is discounts how horrible Nazis were and what
the Jewish people went through.

The closest thing you could say is that Trump wants to be more like Harry
Truman ( a Democrat ). Truman took it 10 steps further by locking up
American citizens. Yes that was a time of war but it doesn't make it less
wrong.

Anyway, comparing anyone except those wacko white nationalists types to
Nazis is just partisan hogwash.

Title: Re: [AFMUG] OT: The Silence is deafening..


This is a shit show no matter what side you are on.  At the end of the day whoever ends up in the white house will piss off over 70m people and we will be even more divided than we ever were.

Someone has to realize we need to be brought back to center.  The house should declare this a contested election and kick both Biden and Trump to the curb.  They need to pick a moderate democrat and a moderate republic and put them in the white house.  At this point I don't care which one is President and which one is VP.  Basically lock both sides in a room together for the next 4 years and make them play nice. 

They have the power to do this, but I don't think they have the balls.  At the end of the day, neither side gives a shit about the country.

In our county (and I have no idea if this is
the norm in the rest of the state), they count
them as they come in, but hold the results in
a secure area until the close of the in-person
polls. Ballots that are postmarked (if they
were mailed) up until the day of the election
will be accepted for a certain amount of time,
but I don't know how long that is.

We also have an online ballot tracking system.
After we dropped our ballots off, we could go
to a ballot status web site that told us (1)
if the ballot had been received, and (2) if it
had been accepted. It took 48 hours for our
ballots to show up in that system. I presume
if our ballots had not been accepted, there is
some sort of mechanism to go fix that, but
I've never had to use it.

Nope, they're targeting the left now. Turns out it wasnt ever about trump
in Portland nor BLM. Which is why all that started under the nations first
black president. Sow the seeds of divisiveness and you shall reap those
rewards, plentifully. Epic, simply epic. Electing the king and queen of
locking black folks up, will be rewarded to the white elitists as expected.

The whole punch card voting "system"  was doomed
from the beginning. I remember using it when I
lived in Santa Clara County 30 years ago or so.
Even when you punched out a hole properly, the
chads would sometime stick or hang on a corner.

For quite some time now, we've been using the
paper ballots where you fill in the square or
the circle.

I've also been registered as a permanent
absentee for over a decade. When I voted (almost
a month ago now), we filled out our ballots at
the kitchen counter, and took them to a drop box
the next day when we were running errands in
town. The actual act of "voting" (if you want to
call it that) took less than 1 minute as we just
dropped the ballots off at one of dozens of drop
boxes all over the county.Our county has (IIRC)
39 drop boxes for a population of ~~ 750,000, or
about 1 drop box for every 20,000 people.

Pennsylvania still hasn't started counting the
late arrival absentee ballots. All of the ones
they've counted so far arrived before November
3, but for reasons I don't understand were not
allowed to be counted until after the day-of
voting. From the things I've read, there are
only about 85,000 of them, and they are unlikely
to do anything but extend Biden's cushion.

I (for one) would be in favor of uniform
voting/counting standards. Perhaps it would be a
violation of state's rights, but on the other
hand, there would be a lot less confusion when
the time for voting comes around.

This is the shit that irritates me
https://breaking911.com/texas-man-charged-with-theft-of-over-100-pieces-mail-including-absentee-ballot/
The headline, which is all people read, and barely, is technically true,
but it alludes, by design that there were a lot of ballots. The singular vs
plural isnt even relevant, since we dont follow those standards now (he she
it they them)
It's one ballot, and the thief didnt even likely know they had it.

This is why real people have no trust in the media

it used to be sitting presidents didnt spy on incoming presidents, or at
least get caught in the act.
I dont think there will be much of  a pulpit left for anyone. The left
had already "unfriended anyone who disagreed with them and isolated
themselves, then attacked any public space where any dissent would sit. so
the "racists" (a term used by morons with no depth) started moving
elsewhere with their time and money.
Nobody really listens to anything outside what they want to hear, so
pulpits arent very relevant today. but kids are remote now, less
indoctrination, so theyll start being "racists" soon too. You lose a ton of
control when you lose a year of indoctrination.
It is kind of fun watching whats going on at fox lately. Things started
turning when that bigot smith left, I didnt care for his hate, but I liked
90 percent of his reporting. but once he left it was like they tried to
fill the agenda void internally and it turned into a pundit brawl. Hannity
went the way of Glenn beck, its a matter of time til hes wearing kleenex
box shoes and talking to cats, Tucker went from being a fun prick to just
being a prick, levin doesnt even hide his hatred of jews anymore, Its like
they decided they wanted to be jokes like lemon, cuomo, and cooper, but
multiplied to below the levels of msnbc, ratings reflective.

this whole thing is literally hilarious, watching the mirror image of 2016
happen. the arrogant hypocrisy is great. I have to admit, I havent been
keeping up on most of it, since i watched it all in the 2016 season. But I
do enjoy the highlight reels. The best part of it is watching the
"winners"  still melting down, as expected. I am kinda disapponted that the
"losing" team isnt our burning cities like they 2016 losers did, but I
guess nobody expected anything different in that regard, turds dont polish.

Used to be that former presidents never criticized sitting presidents.  

That went out the window with Obama/Trump.

Now, it will be interesting to see if anyone will give Trump a pulpit from 
which to speak.  Will he become a fox news feature?  Perhaps at Miss America he 
will pontificate.  I am sure he will not be able to resist seeking publicity.

   dropped it in a box.

All the paper ballots including early in-person
and mail-in were required to sit in the locked
boxes until something like 7am on election day
before they could start processing them. This
was apparently also the case in many
battleground states.  They weren’t even allowed
to open the envelopes, uncrease the forms, check
signatures, nothing.

In our county (and I have no idea if this is the
norm in the rest of the state), they count them
as they come in, but hold the results in a
secure area until the close of the in-person
polls. Ballots that are postmarked (if they were
mailed) up until the day of the election will be
accepted for a certain amount of time, but I
don't know how long that is.

We also have an online ballot tracking system.
After we dropped our ballots off, we could go to
a ballot status web site that told us (1) if the
ballot had been received, and (2) if it had been
accepted. It took 48 hours for our ballots to
show up in that system. I presume if our ballots
had not been accepted, there is some sort of
mechanism to go fix that, but I've never had to
use it.

The whole punch card voting "system" 
was doomed from the beginning. I
remember using it when I lived in Santa
Clara County  30 years ago or so. Even
when you punched out a hole properly,
the chads would sometime stick or hang
on a corner.

For quite some time now, we've been
using the paper ballots where you fill
in the square or the circle.

I've also been registered as a permanent
absentee for over a decade. When I voted
(almost a month ago now), we filled out
our ballots at the kitchen counter, and
took them to a drop box the next day
when we were running errands in town.
The actual act of "voting" (if you want
to call it that) took less than 1 minute
as we just dropped the ballots off at
one of dozens of drop boxes all over the
county.Our county has (IIRC) 39 drop
boxes for a population of ~~ 750,000, or
about 1 drop box for every 20,000 people.

Pennsylvania still hasn't started
counting the late arrival absentee

If someone has credible evidence that would overturn the election, it
should absolutely be brought before the courts. At the moment, all of the
evidence seems to point to a fair election where Donald Trump lost by over
4,000,000 votes.

Just a factual correction:  RealClearPolitics never called Pennsylvania.
 And yes, I checked archive.org to verify.

And in case it comes up: CNN never called Arizona.   In fact, for quite
some time Fox and possibly the AP were the only ones who had called Arizona.

RealClearPolitics un-calls Pennsylvania for Biden.   The state is grey on
their map, now.   Was Blue yesterday.

I do not understand the vitriol against Mr Trump.   He's been an excellent
President for all Americans.
No I didn't ask... I can read everyone's comments, and I have.   For years.

It's pretty straight forward to verify integrity of the vote. We have
already dont it with covid test results. We are blind ballot meaning no one
can see who you voted for. Covid result eliminated anyone's ability to
claim their vote was stolen or manipulated since you can check your results
with your code. You can do the same without recording a name.
If there is any question of validity in a count, it can be verified, fairly
quickly.

Covid built us a system to have a secure vote. Inadvertant side effects are
the best side effects.
You register, you are assigned your key. Your registration can be verified
legitimate. You can even vote online. The tracing infrastructure can be
used to canvass a contested district for verification of vote accuracy.

This is the last election where fraud can be claimed... inadvertant, as is
most of the left's mistakes

Re: [AFMUG] OT: The Silence is deafening..

2020-11-09 Thread Ken Hohhof
Our county typically uses touchscreen machines for in-person voting, both early 
and day-of.  (A paper tape record is also printed out and can be verified by 
the voter)  Obviously these are very quick to process.

 

Early voting sites were open for 15 days prior to the election.  In addition, 
there was one early voting site open 40 days prior to the election, but it used 
paper ballots.  Basically you filled out the same form as a mail-in ballot, 
sealed it, and dropped it in a box.  That’s how I voted and I was disappointed 
that was the process, I thought they would scan them through a “tabulator” as 
the last step, just like back when we used paper ballots for day-of voting.  I 
expected as the last step before leaving I would feed the paper ballot into a 
scanner.  Instead I sealed it in an envelope and dropped it in a box.

 

All the paper ballots including early in-person and mail-in were required to 
sit in the locked boxes until something like 7am on election day before they 
could start processing them.  This was apparently also the case in many 
battleground states.  They weren’t even allowed to open the envelopes, uncrease 
the forms, check signatures, nothing.

In our county (and I have no idea if this is the norm in the rest of the 
state), they count them as they come in, but hold the results in a secure area 
until the close of the in-person polls. Ballots that are postmarked (if they 
were mailed) up until the day of the election will be accepted for a certain 
amount of time, but I don't know how long that is.

We also have an online ballot tracking system. After we dropped our ballots 
off, we could go to a ballot status web site that told us (1) if the ballot had 
been received, and (2) if it had been accepted. It took 48 hours for our 
ballots to show up in that system. I presume if our ballots had not been 
accepted, there is some sort of mechanism to go fix that, but I've never had to 
use it.

The whole punch card voting "system"  was doomed from the beginning. I remember 
using it when I lived in Santa Clara County  30 years ago or so. Even when you 
punched out a hole properly, the chads would sometime stick or hang on a corner.

For quite some time now, we've been using the paper ballots where you fill in 
the square or the circle.

I've also been registered as a permanent absentee for over a decade. When I 
voted (almost a month ago now), we filled out our ballots at the kitchen 
counter, and took them to a drop box the next day when we were running errands 
in town. The actual act of "voting" (if you want to call it that) took less 
than 1 minute as we just dropped the ballots off at one of dozens of drop boxes 
all over the county.Our county has (IIRC) 39 drop boxes for a population of ~~ 
750,000, or about 1 drop box for every 20,000 people.

The whole punch card voting "system"  was doomed from the
  beginning. I remember using it when I lived in Santa Clara County 
  30 years ago or so. Even when you punched out a hole properly, the
  chads would sometime stick or hang on a corner.
For quite some time now, we've been using the paper ballots where
  you fill in the square or the circle.
I've also been registered as a permanent absentee for over a
  decade. When I voted (almost a month ago now), we filled out our
  ballots at the kitchen counter, and took them to a drop box the
  next day when we were running errands in town. The actual act of
  "voting" (if you want to call it that) took less than 1 minute as
  we just dropped the ballots off at one of dozens of drop boxes all
  over the county.Our county has (IIRC) 39 drop boxes for a
  population of ~~ 750,000, or about 1 drop box for every 20,000
  people. 

Pennsylvania still hasn't started counting the late arrival
  absentee ballots. All of the ones they've counted so far arrived
  before November 3, but for reasons I don't understand were not
  allowed to be counted until after the day-of voting. From the
  things I've read, there are only about 85,000 of them, and they
  are unlikely to do anything but extend Biden's cushion.
I (for one) would be in favor of uniform voting/counting
  standards. Perhaps it would be a violation of state's rights, but
  on the other hand, there would be a lot less confusion when the
  time for voting comes around.

Gore could have been robbed but we will never know for certain.  I am certainly 
willing to admit it was possible.

I am glad we don’t have a hanging chad issue with this election.  That was not 
a fun time of waiting.  And it is good to remember Gore was exercising every 
option he had too.  

While he was not as abrasive as Trump, he retracted his concession and tried 
everything he could to swing it.  You cannot blame the presumptive loser for 
trying if it is close.  

But in this latest election it does not appear to be quite that close.

74 is what I am talking about, not 68.  

Every president gets a reality check when they get in the pilot’s seat.  Things 
they said or did during the campaign turn out at times to be impractical or 
just plain wrong.  Whether Nixon did it out of political expediency or 
desperation or because it was the right thing to do, he pulled us out of 
Vietnam and ended it.

Nixon ended the war.  My dad hired hippies at the start of summer every year in 
Oregon.  Many of them were refugees from society believing civilization was 
coming to an end.  They loved to debate politics with me as a young man.  When 
they got down on Nixon I would just say he ended the war.  It always ended the 
debate.

Re: [AFMUG] OT: The Silence is deafening..

2020-11-08 Thread chuck
This was completely expected.  Under no scenario would have had Trump losing 
and acting in any other way.  

Born with a golden spoon in his mouth, surrounded his whole life by sycophants. 
 Bullying to always get his way, belittling and denigrating anyone that he 
viewed as contrary to his particular vision at any moment lead him to believe 
his own stuff.  

He lacks the ability for introspection.  He is mentally handicapped in this 
respect.  Delusional.  Being a pitchman full of puffery is one thing.  That 
comes naturally to him.  But actually believing your own puffery is a huge 
defect.  You gotta know when to cut your losses and beat it out of town.  Live 
to fight another day.  But he is choosing to die on this hill thus killing any 
legacy he might have.  

He is a spoiled brat, and lacks all sense of being gracious or a good sport 
about anything.  He is not fully human in this respect.  So, this reaction was 
100% predictable.  If he was a football coach he would ask for a review of 
every play and then steal the trophy when he lost.  

Just sit back, get some popcorn and see how far he will take it.  Personally 
seeing him being frog walked out of the Whitehouse by SS agents on inauguration 
day would be highly entertaining.  Perhaps they will have to wrestle the 
football from him.

If trump and his supporters believe all the lies he's been spewing since 
Thursday, you have to get your head checked. Don't believe things without 
evidence. Trust no one, only yourself and your ability to fact check what 
people say. 

Fact checking trump's statements since Tuesday show he has lied on nearly 
everything about the election with no evidence to back up his claims. From 
claiming he's won states that haven't been called, to saying he "WON THE 
ELECTION BY ALOT" yesterday when he's losing the popular vote and electoral 
vote. Then claiming all of these jurisdictions are "finding Biden votes" when 
they're simply counting legal ballots already cast. 

We're seeing mail-in ballots are more Democrat than republican votes which 
makes sense that as they're counted, they'll favor Biden.

Then trump claims they're throwing out and blocking republican poll watchers 
which has been proven FALSE in every case. In Detroit for example there were 
over 200 poll watchers each for Dem and Rep, and nearly 70+ independent 
watchers. But as more people outside tried to enter the building, they said no 
because there were already 470+ watchers inside plus the press. They don't need 
to let in anymore people so then the conspiracies started.

All I see is trump is a very sore loser trying to cast doubt on our free 
election process. Aren't his supporters all about freedom and democracy? If so, 
how does calling the election a fraud help that belief? This has been the most 
fair and scrutinized election in history so as others stated, there's no big 
conspiracy being pulled off when elections are run by all parties, not just 
democrats. 

Good luck in court trump. All you're doing is making these lawyers some money 
and making a laughing stock out of yourself. Learn how to lose in a fair 
election and don't incite violence and doubt on the election process.

Hopefully future republican candidates aren't celebrities with an ego like 
trump's. We need a professional in this office who cares about every American. 
Biden was not who I wanted to win the Dem primary but he did. I would have 
preferred Klobuchar or Buttigieg as they both seemed moderate and willing to 
work with everyone.

I'm hoping this Biden win resets congress to wanting to pass bipartisan 
legislation instead of fighting with the president like they did with Obama. 
Unfortunately, I still believe congress fought Obama on everything because he's 
black. Now that an old white guy Democrat will be president and they have a 
history with him, my hope is they'll work on deals and get stuff done. I'm sick 
of the radical left AND right and prefer people meet in the middle, close 
enough to shake hands. I don't think that's too much to ask of our elected 
officials.

It would be the King Kong of conspiracies to pull off. Getting
  hundreds of thousands of poll workers to stay quiet and do a
  coordinated effort in (I think) thousands of local polling places.
  It blows the mind how that could happen. 

And like you said, there have been 9 or 10 suits brought to court
  (so far) and every one has been tossed for lack of evidence.

  The declaration that Biden has won is
premature.   This thing hasn't really gotten started
yet.
  
Judges don't hold court on the
  weekends.

  I’m reminded of the movie The Man Who Shot

  the old west with territories becoming states

  sent the brightest and best educated person to
  Washington to represent you.  Hah! 
  Politicians are not held in great esteem

  movie.  It’s an old John Ford western, in fact
  he shot it in B, but it’s a must see. 
  Look at the cast – Jimmy Stewart, John Wayne,
  Lee Marvin, Vera Miles, Andy Devine, Edmond
  O’Brien, John Caradine, Lee Van Cleef.

For me, it's Andy Devine and Andy Griffith. They're both "Andy",
  and they're both a little bit country.
