A Fine Girl

Obviously. It's why we are glued to reality TV and have a reality TV star for a president.

Screwed up the CHIPS act, and an Intel plant is dragging out opening in OH, too. The area planned for and did need the jobs. Sure, chip factories are a NIMBY thing but we still have trouble getting them since COVID. The act was supposed to help is...but bc Biden did it, the new guy trashes it.

Well duh because we help Ukraine so we are just as bad. Basically what the president said.

No one. If it's a dem they'll go back to holding feet to fire. You know tan suits, grey poupon, ice cream cones, and all.

It is, and it is.

Nope

Of course.

They're $10 a gallon in a month and back to $5 in two. That's not bringing prices down. Sure, I exaggerate in my estimates, but you get the point of the exercise.

This kinda feels like the bank bailouts or something. We started crap, now it's going to affect EVERYONE they have to decide how much pain they can endure or step in and help...?

That too.

You're good. Yeah the landscape isn't what it was during say Vietnam. We have the internet, which isn't always great, but also access to more sources.

Correct, but seems I could happen. I didn't properly sarcasm my "it's okay" part.

Yep

It's ok. There are foreign news services if the ones here fall for this crap.

Always where the excuse is worse...why is trump so weak be got talked into this?

This sent me on the hunt...and I found there is another situation which may be confused with the crash that was reported. Iran hit some tankers on the ground in Saudi Arabia, it seems. This is newer info, although it seems like it happened before the crash...?

Don't drag TBDBITL into this. 🤣

I believe he already said someone suggested he should do this.

Hmm, interesting take given how the last gal gave everyone zero chances...

He has lived far too easy of a life insulated in his ritzy bubble.

2004 our realtor said, "you just need to not order a pizza every week, and you can make up the difference!" We weren't doing that already, about to have our third kid, and I was a SAHM. We bought the cheaper house on fixed rate. Still own it. But I don't blame those with less financial savvy.

Big tough guy with all his security protocol and what not.

He's either unaware what this means (it's not a Led Zeppelin song) or doesn't care. Both bad

Clearly they don't have one.

Yep. My youngest teaches ME how to cook things, now, but also bakes, so we haven't bought buns or anything like that in months. We are spoiled.

As I have been saying, we can have the most professional, well trained, and prepared military in the world, and none of that matters when leadership fails us.

You may or may not be surprised if we find out these aircraft and crew were ANG or USAFR. Great number of refuel ops are NOT active duty...

That's why they keep saying over friendly territory and not shot down by hostile forces over and over again...trying to distance it.

I'm sure that's comfort to their families and the unit they came from.

This is an example...no matter how much training and preparedness at the lowest levels, bad things can happen if you have idiots steering the ship.
