    Of course you did. Because you can't dispute it.

    Nope. Deal with it. Its not that hard to ignore. You can even cut it out when you quote the post. I wont' be offended. Honest. Besides, its not like you have never used the terms before.

    What? Can't handle what you dish out? Wah.

    you dug up a post of mine from 2019, a reply to someone accusing dems of having tds, really?

    I did reply in same for a while, then the right got upset and reported me, I got a hand slap, so I stopped... we should all have to abide by the same rules

    Would you like a newer one?

    That one was posted just last Thursday at 10:54AM pacific time.

    Want to try again? Or are you going to keep deflecting and refusing to address the rest of that post that you got so offended at?

    About you? Uh huh...so explain this:

    Said in response to a post of someone who was responding to someone else's post. Had nothing to do with you.

    Again, want to try again? Or are you going to FINALLY respond to the post that offended you so much?

    Are you ever going to learn that you have a HISTORY of posts here that anyone can look up and see the hypocrisy that you are displaying here?

    yep, the right brought up tds again and I said those that attacked the capital on 1-6 had tds, not sure your point

    You JUST said that you only bring it up when someone "says about me first" <---exact words.

    And just a reminder of a post that you still have not addressed yet... no doubt because you can't dispute it.

    if one is applying the attack to a group I belong to, like all dems, then yes, it's about me too

    but your correct, anytime I see those 3 letters, I do usually reply

    all you have to do is repost the question without the "TDS" nonsense attached, I will answer it, can you do that?

    I don't dish it out unless the poster serves it to me first, i can handle it fine, some republicans can't

    if you put "TDS" in your post, that is what I will reply too, post the question again without that, and I will answer it

    Yeah. Didn't think so. If you could actually handle it then you would be able to address the whole post. Not just a tiny meaningless part.

    But what is the lie? The content of the legislation is set out in black and white.
    It isn’t a lie to cover two topics in one piece of legislation.

    Spin spin spin. That is all that you're doing. You know damn well that the only thing about this being about "NASA" is the title.

    Riddle me this: If Congress ordered a company to give them all their tax information via subpoena and that company gave them a folder titled "all of our tax information" and when Congress opens up that folder only to find news clippings of Joe Biden do you think Congress would be "OK thanks" or would they be referring that company to the DOJ for obstruction and lying to the federal government?

    We both know the answer. Only difference between you and me is that you would spin it. I'd say that the company lied.

    Not spin. The legislation also deals with NASA’s ability to lease its facilities.

    Everything that is being done, is being done according to the procedural rules that are in place.

    Personally I would be much happier if legislation dealt with only one topic at a time, and all legislation was bipartisan. Ideally there would be votes for and against the legislation from both parties.

    But that can’t happen right now. Both parties are obstructing legislation, although I think the Republicans are much more the party of “no” - obstructing everything the Democrats do, without real thought.

    The Republicans are using the filibuster (which is part of the procedural rules) to obstruct everything.

    In that environment, I don’t see anything wrong with the other party also using the procedural rules to advance its legislative agenda.

    Question: Do you want felons to vote because you actually care about their voice, or do you just want them to vote because you know full-well the vast majority of them are Democrats? I guarantee it’s the latter. No deal.

    Do you want felons NOT to vote because you assume the vast majority of them are Democrats? I guarantee that’s your reason.

    You are making the argument to be rid of the filibuster...we have had this talk.
    The only solution is to end the filibuster in its current form or other legal tactics like this will arise.

    When solving problems one goes after the source, not the symptom. Solving this symptom wont be possible during this administration, and when you solve it with yours, another symptom of the failed filibuster rule will arise. Maybe that's what you want though..the system chasing its tail stuck in a habitual loop? Irrelevant though because if this is unconstitutional, then its already illegal. And the problem will take care of it self.

    Disapproval only reveals that one would make a failed lawyer in practice. Which is fine, not everyone is cut out for the job.
