   THIS IS WHAT I THINK ABOUT YOU FOR REJECTING SO MANY OF MY POSTS…

   FOR ABSOLUTELY NO REASON WHATSO EVER…!!!

   You're a mean one, AOL
   You really are a heel
   You're as cuddly as a cactus, you're as charming as an eel, AOL
   You're a bad banana with a greasy black peel!

   You're a monster, AOL
   Your heart's an empty hole
   Your brain is full of spiders, you've got garlic in your soul, AOL
   I wouldn't touch you with a thirty-nine-and-a-half foot pole!

   You're a vile one, AOL
   You have termites in your smile
   You have all the tender ********* of a seasick crocodile, AOL
   Given a choice between the two of you I'd take the seasick crocodile!

   HA!... YOUR CENSOR ALGORYTHM BLANKED OUT THE WORD "S/ W# E! E$ T@ N% E^ S& S"... WHAT A CROCK...!!! FIX IT...!!!

   You're a foul one, AOL
   You're a nasty-wasty skunk
   Your heart is full of unwashed socks, your soul is full of gunk, AOL
   The three words that best describe you are as follows, and I quote
   "Stink, stank, stunk!"

   You're a rotter, AOL
   You're the king of sinful sots
   Your heart's a dead tomato splotched with moldy purple spots, AOL
   Your soul is an appalling dump heap overflowing with the most disgraceful
   Assortment of deplorable rubbish imaginable, mangled up in tangled up knots!

   You nauseate me, AOL
   With a nauseous super "NAUS"!
   You're a crooked dirty jockey and you drive a crooked hoss, AOL
   You're a three-decker sauerkraut and toadstool sandwich with arsenic sauce!

   I'm tryin' really hard, Ray... To see what yer seein'... But come up empty! As I posted before... oil production has increased... virtually steadily... since 2005. Including throughout the Obama administration... and through Trump's administration... and so far, through Biden's administration... and we're STILL net energy independent! Here's data directly from the EIA's website... (I hope it posts so you can actually read it!) U.S. Field Production of Crude Oil (x 1k BPD) Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun 2005 5,446 5,501 5,601 5,563 5,596 5,442 Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec 5,253 5,198 4,214 4,555 4,857 4,988 2019 11,848 11,653 11,899 12,125 12,141 12,179 11,896 12,475 12,572 12,771 12,966 12,910 2020 12,785 12,826 12,816 11,911 9,711 10,420 10,956 10,558 10,868 10,413 11,121 11,084 2021 11,056 9,773 11,160 11,230 11,334 11,288 11,330 11,206 10,851 11,526 11,769 11,604 2022 11,369 11,306 11,655 I see...
   September 2005- lowest oil production
   November 2019- highest oil production
   May 2020- drop in production due to pandemic
   An almost steady rise in production until...
   March 2022 (last EIA data available)- 2nd highest oil production since covid!
   Please tell me how you see anything different! And, as opposed to simply stating... EXPLAIN how you reached your conclusions about what Biden did and where that's reflected...

   Read my post again, Ray... And try to absorb what it’s actually saying, rather than jumping immediately to your own conclusions! The data I presented is directly from the EIA website on “U.S. Field Production of Crude Oil”… check it out! I hope you’re not suggesting that the EIA is lying! And let’s be honest again, Ray… President Biden never “promised to end our petroleum production.” What he DID say during the presidential debate on October 20, 2020… when asked by Trump if he would “close down the oil industry,” and when he was finally allowed to answer the question was… “I would transition from the oil industry, yes!” And when asked why he would do that, his response was… “Because the oil industry pollutes… significantly [meaning, as a source of energy]... and it has to be replaced by renewable energy over time. Over time!” So, you can twist THOSE statements any way you want… But please… be honest about what he actually said! And while I don’t deny your assertion that oil is still necessary for the production of all kinds of products… I’ve never heard anyone suggest that the flow of oil would be staunched to the point we would not have the resources needed to produce the products we’ve come to rely on! I mean… even Tylenol is a petroleum-based product! (continued… )

   ( …page 2) As for Mr. Yergin… I know he’s a well-respected, often quoted and published author and “expert” on global energy. And I actually appreciate many of his opinions on renewable energy! However, I fail to see how you come to the conclusions you have that he has a negative opinion of them! Because here are just a few things he’s said about renewables and our energy crisis during an interview with Ezra Klein, on March 22, 2022:
   
   Regarding Russian oil; “This is an emergency! Can we increase our production of oil to take barrels away from Russia?”
   Renewables are not only about climate, but it’s also about energy security, and in order to rise to the occasion, and solve those problem, we need to;
   Scour the world for more L.N.G.
   Burn more coal for a couple of years so we can reduce gas imports from Russia.
   Accelerate development of more efficient sources of energy.
   Accelerate the rollout of electric cars.
   Focus on renewables so we don’t have to use as much gas for electric generation.
   (continued… )

   I'M NOT WAITIN'... I'M DEAD...!!!

   *** ANOTHER CLASIC...!!! ***

   STILL WAITING AFTER SIX DAYS LATER...

   I'M DEFINITELY DEAD...!

   There are very few things, ?Call...
   That I believe anyone has the right to hold as THEIR belief...
   And insist that everyone ELSE adhere to it as well!

   Meaning that if there are those who desire to live their lives based on their morals and beliefs... then go for it... they're more than welcome to do that!

   I don't believe however, that they're welcome to impose THEIR morals and beliefs on anyone else simply because they live in the same state... with the only alternative being to move out of that state!

   In my mind, the concept of having 50 different states, with 50 different laws, treating the very same personal, private matter in 50 different ways … is patently absurd!

   Not to change the subject, or attempt to deflect, but... for an example to consider...

   IF IT WERE CONSTITUIONALLY LEGAL...
   To insist that everyone in your state become Christian... or Jewish... or Mormon... etc, etc.
   And if not, then the only option would be to leave the state!

   Would you consider that a morally correct behavior?

   Or another example to consider…
   There are over a million Anabaptists in America (Amish, Mennonites, Quakers, etc.), who all live very strictly by their own morals and beliefs…

   Yet there's never been any effort on their part to insist that ANYONE ELSE live life as they do!

   This is The UNITED States of America...
   Where we’re supposed to have each other’s backs, and support each other!

   We’re not the Excluding States of America...
   Which would never make America great!

   I agree with your premise, Bill... Mostly... While bullying can be a major influencer of violent behavior... there are a lot more issues that can contribute to it as well! The CDC has identified the following 6 specific causes of violent behavior… I’m sure there are others; · Repeated victimization of violence. · Attention deficits, hyperactivity, or learning disorders. · History of early aggressive behavior. · Involvement with drugs, alcohol, or tobacco. · Low IQ. · Poor behavioral control. · Deficits in social cognitive or information-processing abilities. · High emotional distress. I don’t know where this may fall under “causes”, but… I’ve unfortunately seen parents, either individually or in pairs… absolutely berate and demean their child… and I mean to the point of being psychologically abusive… to where I felt it necessary to intervene… at my own risk, mind you! And that is only MY experience of the abuse… I can only imagine what that child has had to endure on a daily basis… and what kind of person they might grow up to be! It makes me really sad for that child... And our society! So, while it’s all well and good to say “the answer” is better parenting… We have to realize that’s a far rarer opportunity than we’d like to think!

   Denial, Deflection, attack, and lie!

   My comment was not about whether you were agreeing or disagreeing with Hermann's point... and it certainly had nothing to do with whether Ron "approved" of your comment, or not...!

   It was all about the fact that you clearly (to me, anyway) don't have a clue what you're talking about...

   And... in spite of your insistence to the contrary... you're simply repeating nose-to-tail the things you've heard and agree with... without any real comprehension!

   Thus, the "crickets" to Ron's request for clarification... because you don't have an answer!

   Or...
   Did you think he was simply making a recommendation on how to make your point more effective?

   Oh wait... that would require...
   Actual thinking!

   IF YOU THINK THAT WAS BAD...

   A part of the lesson we could all recognize (in 20/20 hindsight) from what we're learning from these hearings...

   Is that this is just more of the same kind of behavior and attitudes that Trump has exhibited and practiced HIS ENTIRE LIFE!

   It doesn't take too deep of a look into his life, to find all kinds of evidence of that fact.

   The sad... really, really sad part of that...

   Is that too few were able to see past his well polished schmooze...

   To recognize who he REALLY is!

   Well... now we all know!

   That was quite a tome, Vette…
   In defense of “protecting” women, and women’s sports!

   Too bad that virtually all of it is based on a fallacy!

   You said that, “preventing someone participating in school activities (sports) consistent with their gender identity … means there is no requirement to physically transition, use hormones or other procedures to differentiate someone from being a male."

   That is a patently false statement!

   The article is about the application of Title IX…
   It has nothing to do with trans requirements to participate in sports!

   On Jan. 19, 2022, the NCAA Governing Board released the following clarification of their trans-athlete policies;

   “The NCAA Board of Governors … voted in support of a sport-by-sport approach to transgender participation that preserves opportunity for transgender student-athletes while balancing fairness, inclusion and safety for all who compete. The new policy … aligns transgender student-athlete participation for college sports with recent policy changes from the United States Olympic and Paralympic Committee and International Olympic Committee.” (continued…)

    They explained the reasoning for their policy is because, "Approximately 80% of U.S. Olympians are either current or former college athletes. This policy alignment provides consistency and further strengthens the relationship between college sports and the U.S. Olympics."

    Every state has some form of state high school athletic association… And each and every one of them have the same ability to establish policies to accommodate trans athletes… as required by Title IX and SCOTUS rulings... which are fair and reasonable for all athletes participating.

    And, it would behoove them to do so for the same reasons as the NCAA… to “provide consistency and further strengthen the relationship” between K-12 sports, and college sports!

    You also said that, “In general women can not compete with men in sports.”

    Another patently false statement!

    As there are numerous examples of women competing in men’s sports all the way from ***-wee leagues to professional teams!

    I know that none of what I’ve presented fits into your (and Jim’s) “protect the girls” agenda… but it also doesn’t mean they’re not fact!

    I’ve read quite a bit about Mr. Hanson.
    And while I realize he’s established himself as an intellectual authority in the eyes of many…

    I also realize that he’s very selective in the topics and examples that he uses to support his positions.

    For example, he’s condemned the Biden administration, and virtually all Democrats, et al, for failure to protect and prosecute the 2020 riots, the threat against Kavanaugh, attacks on pro-life centers, using the Jan 6 hearings to distract from current events, etc, etc…

    Yet he completely and uncourageously fails to address the fact that those exact same behaviors have been practiced regularly by Republicans, conservatives, and right-wing radicals!

    Instead, he passes out time honored platitudes… in a very intelligent and sophisticated manner, mind you... to plant the most potent weapon the right has at their disposal… FEAR… into the minds of those who are most susceptible to it.

    And you’ve just very loyally repeated a bunch of them!

    We have a multi-tier, corrupt system of justice…
    A complete breakdown of governmental functions…
    We no longer have a representative government…
    Democrats and Republicans are corrupt and do not care about the country…
    Etc… etc… etc…!

    None of which are fundamentally true!

    So, believe what you want…
    But I’d say y’all are getting’ ****** punched!

    Check out the story, Dave...
    Of trans boxer, Patricio Manuel!

    He’s been booed every time he wins a boxing match...
    
    Mostly from men, whose male virility is apparently offended by the fact that their "man" got defeated by a trans athlete!

    Unfortunately, Manuel's career has been short-ended due to the fact that, although he fulfills the boxing commissions requirements for trans boxers… cis boxers often refuse to get in the ring with him!

    Hmmm… I wonder why!

    An interesting side note;
    In the history of boxing, there was racial discrimination against black fighters, with heavyweight champion, John Sullivan declaring in 1892, "I will not fight a [knee.. grow]. I never have and never shall."

    And, he retained his title not by skill alone... but by ducking competitive matches with opponents of color... a strategy later described as white fighters hiding behind "that cowardly protection, the color line."

    Rather than suffer that stigma…
    Sullivan proposed a solution… a system of segregation…
    "Let [knee.. grows] meet [knee.. grows], and whites meet whites," he said.

    We all know how THAT turned out!

    Echoing that sentiment today regarding trans fighters, podcast host, Joe Rogan has suggested a similar policy. "Fight trans people," he said. "The simple solution is: compete against other trans people."

    Or, in effect, let cis fighters hide behind “that cowardly protection”… of a trans line!

    Because Lord only knows...
    A REAL man certainly never wants to get beaten by... A Woman!

    OH MY GOD... "WHY"...???

    Before I disappoint you, Jim…
    By rising to your challenge… let me remind you of just one of your low-boy accusations.

    You said… “you do what you always do. You interpret something the way an emotional 4th grader might, then proceed to argue points never made.”

    Which is exactly what you’ve done here… because I never claimed you made “a defense of jan 6 in any way,” as you accused me of!

    Anyway… you and Chris were discussing the acceptability of violence. The thread covered the violence of the 2020 riots, the potential violence of the upcoming Supreme Court ruling, and the violent Jan 6th insurrection.

    Given that violence, you suggested that “Civilized people do not react with violence when they do not get their way. Isn't that what the current hearings are supposed to be about?”

    Several posts later, you said, “It's insulting to imply that the hundreds of people involved in all that violence and burning [of 2020] have been dealt with,” adding that, “given all that … where are the Congressional investigations?” Linking, for the second time, the violence of 2020, with that of Jan 6th!

    You then closed that comment with, “I get tired of people trying to link peaceful dissent to pure destruction and theft.”

    I responded by simply asking if you were “trying to pass off the events of Jan 6th as “peaceful dissent”!

    Which, given the conversation, was a legitimate question! And it’s what got you all riled up and flusterbated…

    Now do you remember… Narrow beam?

    That the "head fully inserted" excuse works really well for you...

    Because then you don't have to deal with the reality of a logical opinion other than your own! Just blame it on "the emotion zone of doom!"

    And, I also understand how you find SpaceX's response to their employees as "normal"... simply because, in your mind, you also find their behavior "unacceptable."

    But that doesn't necessarily mean that it is!

    It only means that it's unacceptable to YOU!

    As you've said elsewhere...
    There are other methods of conflict resolution...

    And in MY mind... those "other methods" need to be utilized by BOTH sides of the conflict!

    Unfortunately, I realize that probably doesn't fit into your realm of the "obvious"... because it would definitely require that you come out of your self-righteous little shell of authority... and actually deal with "the hired help!"

    “Of people trying to link peaceful dissent to pure destruction and theft.”

    I hope you’re not trying to pass off the events of Jan 6th as “peaceful dissent”!

    In both the summer riots, and the Capitol insurrection, there were legitimate expressions of “peaceful dissent”; one, of continuing police violence and racial injustice… the other, based on the lies of election fraud by a narcissist.

    They both also had elements of “pure destruction and theft”; one, committed mostly by “hijackers” of the event who took advantage of the situation to loot and pillage… the other, based on the directions of the above said narcissist, to attack our Capitol in an attempt to overthrow the very democratic principles America was founded on!

    And, contrary to your belief, the violent offenders of both events are being identified and brought to justice!

    According to The Prosecution Project (tPP), the summer riots “resulted in over 10,000 arrests nationwide.” And while prosecution is still ongoing, sentencing has ranged from time served… to community service… to more than 5 years in prison!

    HOWEVER…
    Since those cases are mostly all adjudicated locally, most of America is not aware of them, or their outcomes!

    On the other hand…

    Prosecution of virtually all of the Jan 6th rioters is national news, and most Americans are aware of them…

    Leading many of the village uninformed to believe there’s a disparity of treatment between the two events.

    There is NOT!
