@Region Philbis,
Hopefully the other major sports leagues and the big corporations will follow suit.

If the economic hurt to the state is significant, maybe it can produce some results.

Because it opens a crack that allows the public to see how compromised these people are, how hollow their claims of integrity, and why we need to reform our institutions and elect more effective public servants.

Nowhere did I say that I approved of Boehner's (or Bachman's) political record or ideology. I would have thought that was a given.



I’m taking less as givens these days, regarding some folk.

Your point is kind of squishy.

You say you always appreciate seeing glimpses of integrity and instances of calling out their party.

When I challenge you for giving them too much credit, you say that you do it because it exposes their duplicity?

Doesn’t really zip right through a logic flow chart, if you get my meaning.

It's the Democrats who are the problem.

The solution is to outlaw the party IMO.


1) This is just as goofy a thing to say as it was the first hundred times you repeated it.

2) No one asked you what you think about this

3) Because no one cares what you think about this

What we need is for conservative lawmakers to start cracking down on these leftist corporations.

No. what we need to do is outlaw the conservative lawmakers who are trying to destroy amkerican democracy by their outrageous proposed voter suppresion laws.

Preventing Democrats from cheating isn't voter suppression.

@oralloy,
Remember one important fact; these dupes believe that creepy Joe, without any active campaign, got more votes than any candidate in history, while president Trump received ten million more votes than in his victory in 2016.

@Builder,
Biden campaigned, he just didn't insist on presiding over super-spreader events. I know you are not an American, so perhaps you didn't realize that people running for office don't stage huge "Look At Me" rallies to ramp up the dumbshits. Biden supporters like to read, like to examine and are loathe to follow a carnival barker into a Steven King styled nightmare.

@glitterbag,
And that whole aspect of contrasting campaigning styles has been explained to 'creepy' Builder at least a half dozen times. Every time voters were treated to coverage of a MAGA spectacle, a significant portion of them vowed to vote for Joe Biden. The rallies were horrible publicity for Trump's campaign if you weren't a Trump fan.

@hightor,
I do think that every country has a different kind of election campaign.
Here, most of the campaigning is done through small information stands in the pedestrian zones. And information material that everyone gets as they see fit.

And if really a "famous person" comes and there were several hundred listeners - then there must have been free beer.

@hightor,
Man, I remember that photo. It was Trump coming back to the White House being despondent after realizing his rally in Tulsa only got a few thousand attendees instead of his promised 1 million.

Also a prime example of why holding rallies with thousands of people in close quarters during a pandemic is a bad idea: "In the 30-day period after the rally, the rate of new COVID-19 cases in Oklahoma more than tripled, to 513 cases per day."

@MontereyJack,
You can't prove that the Democrats didn't cheat in 2020.

Al Gore tried to cheat in 2000 when he tried to recount count only Democratic precincts.

Weak.

It was up to the Trump campaign to prove their charges of fraud — which, in case after case, they were manifestly unable to do. The courts never ordered the Democrats to prove they didn't cheat; that's not how it works.

@hightor,
We're not in court. We're on a messageboard discussing measures to guard against cheating.

You can't prove that the Democrats didn't cheat either.

@hightor,
Exactly, if someone makes a claim it’s incumbent upon them to provide proof, and the only proof of anything Oralloy has is what he pulls out his arse.

@izzythepush,
You're lying. I have cites to back up all of my claims.

That's because I'm not a phony like you are.

@oralloy,
Why don't you state what evidence would be acceptable as proof and then explain how anyone is going to supply that evidence here on a message board. If the best efforts of Trump's campaign lawyers failed to make the case, the evidence of alleged election fraud is simply not there.

@hightor,
At this point I don't know what I would consider convincing proof.

I doubt that it would even be possible at this point to provide real proof even if it were actually true that the Democrats didn't cheat in 2020.

For there to have been real proof, there would have had to have been trustworthy monitoring and anti-cheating measures in place during the election.
