Re: UNH Hockey: Where Do We Go From Here....
Well Chuck, see, what I don't get, is how he gets such a 'pass' for the stuff he does, and says, now, and in the past. "Im good with it" that he can say what he wants, now, and in the past, and that's ok. Ok, that's how you see him, and you accept those things with a 'whatever'. I do not. I cannot. And, you know, I want to apologize for letting myself 'jump the shark' on this board and to those who must be reading our posts. Guess without our team (remember, that's what we signed up for here) in it (moot point obviously) we had to talk about something. But I'm sorry I let myself go down this endless rabbit hole, it's just a dead end. And I never meant to hurt anyone's feelings. I value all the friendships I have made here that have carried over to the rink. They have been invaluable..
I have so much work in front of me now so I'll say adios for abit. I can't handle the stress of what's going on in the real world, with a pandemic that could kill someone I love, and put energy here even tho as you can see, I have a passionate opinion. I'd much rather talk UNH hockey, but that's not happening here at the moment. Hopefully one day soon, it will. Be well.
If the President got anything approaching remotely fair coverage from the MSM for the last 3+ years, you'd have a point, HR. But Twitter (to which I don't belong/subscribe/whatever) is his only way to get his message out on his terms, and for once the MSM doesn't get to have full control of the narrative over a GOP president. And it drives the MSM into the depths of TDS. So I'm good with it in general.
I don't think any of us have ever said the guy is perfect. But given the alternatives in 2016 - a lot of same old, same old GOP'ers, and a horrendously corrupt, underqualified and unlikable Dem nominee, he seized the opportunity, kept a ton of promises to his base, and hasn't been the lapdog GOP prez the MSM and Dems have trampled over since the post-Reagan days.
You don't have to like him, and I don't expect you'll ever vote for him. But I will, and most others who did in 2016 will likely do so again in 8 months' time. Unless of course the President decides to postpone the election until 2024, which suits me just fine.
( … that's a joke, just like when he says he might keep running ad infinitum, to wind you guys up … )
It's not that complicated, Dan. The Communist Chinese - totalitarian dictatorship, command economy, using virtual slave labor, and without question the most truly racist (in the actual literal meaning of the word) regime currently on the face of this planet, experienced some boo-boo in Wuhan Province in China in late 2019 which appears to have had an animal-to-human transmission, and then went over to human-to-human transmission in early 2020. I believe both the WHO and CDC offered their support and intervention at some point during that stretch. And to the surprise of absolutely no one, the totalitarians in the Chinese Politburo said "no thanks, freedom loving capitalist pigs, nothing to see here, we got this, bye" or something to that effect.
So … the Chinese started it, the Chinese refused help with intervention, Trump shuts down travel to/from China (which I believe Canada was still allowing through earlier today) … and yet you falsely try to equate Chinese and US conduct. Seek help, please.
In the meantime, on the other side of the world, we have total unredeemable *****clown hacks like Nancy Pelosi, Jerry Nadler and Adam Schiff (talk about "Captain Arrogance") trying to ram a totally bogus impeachment on the President. If we're going to play Monday Morning QB on Trump for every last little thing he does or doesn't do to set off his media critics or Democrats (apologies for repeating myself) ... maybe, just maybe, everyone (including the oxygen thieves on Capitol Hill) would have had a little more free time and focus to be out there actually doing the people's business, and maybe getting an even better jump on this thing?
Anyway, that's my token post for the evening, Dan. Take your victory lap about all of your other stuff I'm not responding to (and keep fooling yourself that any of it deserves a response), as if you didn't ignore a ton of stuff I posted. Unlike you, I don't think my $h!t is ice cream. Have a good one.
