    In your very humble opinion... of course... but I suppose I'm just as biased as you are, too.

    OMGAWD! How you can even entertain the idea that Trump comes anywhere close to Ruth's intellect is unbelievable....if Trump is your idea of "smart" then no wonder you have to call my opinion "humble".

    "The religious factions that are growing throughout our land are not using their religious clout with wisdom. They are trying to force government leaders into following their position 100 percent. If you disagree with these religious groups on a particular moral issue, they complain, they threaten you with a loss of money or votes or both.

    I'm frankly sick and tired of the political preachers across this country telling me as a citizen that if I want to be a moral person, I must believe in 'A,' 'B,' 'C' and 'D.' Just who do they think they are? And from where do they presume to claim the right to dictate their moral beliefs to me? And I am even more angry as a legislator who must endure the threats of every religious group who thinks it has some God-granted right to control my vote on every roll call in the Senate. I am warning them today: I will fight them every step of the way if they try to dictate their moral convictions to all Americans in the name of 'conservatism.' " ~ Barry Goldwater 1981

    We went from safe legal and rare to 24/7 drive through abortions. All abortions all the time at all ages.

    Governor Blackface and Covid Cuomo say otherwise.

    Just own the carnage.

    Abortions weren't always safe , legal, and rare.

    There are restrictions and time limits on elective abortions. No one has changed that.

    With you everything is either snow white, or obsidian black! There are, believe it or not, 'shades of grey', too. And different people have different aptitudes, abilities, and proclivities.

    Ginsburg prepared herself through academic pursuit and hard work for a superb career in law and judicial processes... while cultivating her own preferred political viewpoints regarding life in the United States, and the Constitution.

    Trump took ~$120 million dollars that his father gave him and using it aggressively, has amassed an empire that Forbes estimates today to be $3.1 billion! For someone like Trump, 'government', per se, is just another damn thing you have to deal with in the greater effort to achieve wealth, prosperity, and a higher standard of living, for yourself, and for the CITIZENS of your country. They are two very different people, Foxhastings....

    I have no idea of what Ginsburg's IQ is, or Trump's, either... and neither do you -- although I suspect that each of them 'scores' relatively high.

    I don't know why you're prattling on about IQ and Trump's "success" in sucking off his father but I was discussing brains, intellect and wisdom, none of which Trump has...

    His "genius' was found in failed businesses and screwing others over......that doesn't take brains, wisdom or intellect...


    The old " IQ" thing is just that , old, and doesn't prove anything...


    Let me know when you care to address the topic...

    YOU, Foxhastings, were the one who veered off into the speculative realm of how smart Ruthie Ginsburg is compared to Trump (review your recent posts in this thread). I merely tried to juxtapose the aptitudes of these two individuals, and to put their differences into perspective, but, you're tired of your little deflection now, and want to move on to something else, like the thread topic? OK.

    Yeah... so, abortion. I'm in agreement that we should let the 47 year-old 'Roe v Wade' decision stand as the law of the land. My guess is that you feel the same way...(?). Fine. Have a nice day... it's likely we'll never agree on anything else, so, let's enjoy it. :roll:

    the goldwater republicans cannot suppress their puritanical Christian base forever, there will be a reckoning.

    when they return to power they will overturn the 47 year-old 'Roe v Wade' decision

    Puritanical Xtians aren't the least bit suppressed, and Goldwater Republicans are now called RINO's. Wake up and smell what you're shoveling... :roll:

    Aah -- there you go again, regaling us with your wholly subjective opinion about Ruthie's intellect. On...off...and, ON again.... :lol:

    I don't doubt that Ginsburg is very intelligent, Foxhastings... did I ever say I didn't think she was intelligent...? I don't want to go down this 'rabbit hole' again, but I'll just close by saying that some people have the ability to grow businesses phenomenally well, and, some others have the ability to think 'great thoughts' -- and then impose them on other people!

    That's WHY we have a Constitution in this country, Foxhastings, so that we can HOPE to have a sure, solid foundation for what we DO as a people, and HOPEFULLY, to be protected from rank revisionism of hyperliberal 'great-thinkers'! Now -- have a great weekend!

    YUP, so was Roland Freisler, Staatssekretär des Reichsjustizministeriums, and, Präsident des Volksgerichts, 'back in the day'....
    He, too, was just "doin' his job" -- ya know, dreaming up crap and then making other people obey it. The idea has been around forever....

    I think you and I are the only ones here this morning. Gotta go do some stuff now before the plebs come out of their holes and start setting off fireworks, getting drunk, starting fights, having even more car wrecks, and causing wildfires. I HATE the '4th of July'!

    Be happy -- be safe -- it gets harder and harder every year to get away from these idiots....

    We had some neighborhood dolts setting off fireworks last night...

    The set from 9:20 to 9:30 was perfectly fine.

    Whoever set off the single LOUD one at 4:30 am is on my **** list.

    I hear ya though.... permanently in my bottom 5 holidays...
