The more brandy, the funnier it gets.
Can you imagine what would happen if a Captain of a major airline demanded they remove the president of the United States because the Captain claims the president is mentally unstable?

Given your uncompromising arrogance and leftist elitism all I can do is pay for tickets on the airline you do not work for. That is all.

Never compromise Rockie. Never accept facts over your opinion.

Clinton, the nation's 42nd president, was impeached by the House of Representatives on December 19, 1998, for allegedly misleading a grand jury about his extramarital affair with Lewinsky in the White House, and then persuading others to lie about it, too.

Yes telex, I remember hearing his name in the news once or twice. But what does that have to do with my post? While Slick Willie might have had trouble keeping his zipper up he was definitely of sound mind, had a brain in his head and wasn't a whipping boy for Putin or any other friend or especially foe of the United States.

He didn't vaingloriously blab other state's secrets to the Russians, and he knew how to run something other than a crooked real estate business. And no, he wasn't impeached, he was acquitted. Check your history kid.

So far I see no comparison, so what was your irrelevant point again?

You're almost there Telex. Clinton was in fact impeached by the house for perjury and obstruction of justice (remember those, you're going to hear a lot about them plus a LOT more with the current guy). The Senate however cleared Clinton of all charges and he served out his second term. Them's the facts, but you'd have to read past the part you like to know that.

That's not to defend Clinton, he deserved everything he brought down on himself plus more for taking advantage of an obviously gobsmacked and naive WH intern and then stupidly lying about it when he got caught. All that pales to insignificance compared to Trump though for whom you guys have an obvious blind spot as big as the sun.

That's funny. Now Rockie is a board certified physiatrist. It must be awesome to be so smug that you have no clue as to your own limitations. Ignorance is bliss, (hence the continued support for cultural Marxism).

Crap, you beat me to it. But then again, what to expect from smug canada that pontificates about how they are superior to the rest of the world. The worst part is that the pontificators appear to be the least well traveled ones. Quite provincial as the Brits would say.

Is a "physiatrist" somehow connected to covfefe? I was sick during most of my Cultural Marxism course so maybe I'm at a disadvantage here.

I corrected something in your quote. Hope you don't mind!


Still no idea why this topic is still left running here.

Or bring back the "Water cooler" board :mrgreen:

Indulge me B208, cultural Marxism is your inexplicable go to insult for literally everything so that's no surprise, but what in my last post led your unique mind to think "board certified psychiatrist"?

I'm serious. That's from way out there so if you could explain some connection that'd be great. Thanks.

Well Rockie, that's pretty straight forward, I'm surprised that you need it explained to you. You have made a diagnosis that Trump is unstable. Such a diagnosis falls within the purview of a mental health professional, hence you obviously think you are qualified as a mental health professional.

Also, cultural Marxism is not an insult, it is a label for a set of beliefs and behaviours. If I were looking to insult you I'd call you a 'useful idiot'.

Cultural Marxism generally refers to one of two things:

1. First — extremely rarely — "Cultural Marxism" refers to the general application of the Frankfurt School's Marxist ideology to the social sciences.

2. Second — about 99.9% of the time — "Cultural Marxism" is a snarl word used to paint anyone with progressive tendencies as a secret Communist. The term alludes to a conspiracy theory in which sinister left-wingers have infiltrated media, academia, and science and are engaged in a decades-long plot to undermine Western culture. Some variants of the conspiracy alleges that basically all of modern social liberalism is, in fact, a Communist front. In current wingnut usage, the term is a favorite of Pat Buchanan and, to the most dangerous extent, Anders Behring Breivik. It is a Cold Warrior's way of decrying "political correctness" or "multiculturalism."

Here's another observation...

When someone brags that they are "anti-PC", it's just a PC way of saying "I'm an asshole and proud of it".

No, you have formed the opinion that President Trump is unstable. Whilst you are entitled to form that opinion, you lack the qualification to give that opinion any weight. Further, your opinion seems to be coloured a bit by the halo effect; you don't like the President and hence are more inclined to believe bad things about him.

It is cute that you don't know the difference betwixt an observation and an opinion. It makes your dissertations throughout all the climate change threads even more entertaining.

OH-oh, somebody's getting grumpy about losing again. :smt040

Hey, Rockie: What would you think of someone who posted a photo of themselves holding Jack Layton's (fake) severed head? Now explain why it's ok for a progressive to do it?

I think you're confusing the halo effect with the horns effect. Anyway, it's not my opinion that Trump reacts like a jilted teenager on twitter with juvenile name calling and utterly ridiculous gifs of him beating the crap out of CNN. I can post the links if you like so that you can observe them yourself. That just isn't the behavior of a stable adult in anybody's book with the exception of Trump followers. Most stable, responsible parents would give their toddlers a month long time out in the corner of the room for such behavior.

It's not ok, and I would advise that person to take a step back and get some fresh air.

Now you explain why it's ok for a president to tell his followers to beat the crap out of people who disagree with them.
Explain why it's ok for a president to say we should kill the families of terrorists.
Explain why it's ok for the president to advocate torture when it's illegal.
Explain why it's ok for the president to call a free press the enemy.
Explain why it's ok for the president to use his office to further his business interests.
Explain why it's ok for the president to renege on treaties.
Explain why it's ok for the president to try and squash legal investigations.
Explain why it's ok for the president to ignore scientific advice.
Explain why it's ok for the president to cowardly avoid real press conferences with real press.

I could go on all day, and we haven't even begun to discuss treason yet....

Hi Dude,
Just as an educational exercise for you, I have reduced your post, (above), down to what actually qualifies as observations vice opinions. Pretty scant, isn't it? Study it and contrast it with your original post (below) so that you might come to grasp the difference. Work with me here Rockie and we will make an intellectual out of you yet! :smt040

Bold items are simply your opinion dude. Please remember that just because you think something is so, does not make it so.

Well then you might want to take a step back from your progressive movement dude. They are encouraging and carrying out acts like that. Have you been following black lives matter? Either way, when this thread gets pulled come on over to the other site and we can continue the chat.
