Switch to your left hand.

You need to give your right a break, evidently.

Lol I woke up a couple days ago and my elbow looked like popeye’s. Craziest shit ever. Just the elbow. Apparently my bursa sac blew

What’s your point with this post? We all know how you feel. Try posting something different that would change a person’s mind.

So, we listened to this entire farce on the 9-hour drive to Georgia today. Obviously didn’t get the visuals, but based on what we could hear, Hegseth won the day. But, my God, the Dems on the committee totally soiled themselves. From Gillibrand to Warren to Kaine to the uber-loon from Hawaii the left totally embarrassed themselves.

Are these people insane? I’ll gladly and readily admit I hate leftist politicians but what I heard today was an embarrassment. I felt embarrassed that my country puts politicians such as this in positions of power.

The best laugh we had was when some senator stated that Hegseth didn’t have the experience of managing an organization with 3,000,000 “employees.” Who has?

I had some reservations about Hegseth, but after today he has my vote. The Pentagon needs to be shaken up. If anything, building back the Navy’s strength will happen. And the troops will be energized. He won’t get any Dem votes, except maybe Fetterman’s, but he’ll get every GOP vote.

I think these performances are off putting to independents and moderates. Yeah, both sides do it, but the Ds, IMO, need to show those voters that they hear them and want to move away from the nutty progressive issues. Yesterday’s hearing did not accomplish that.

That's tough.

Never happened to me, but had a buddy that it did and he said it hurt like a mother.

It didn't hurt anymore after a night at the bar.

Are you dumb enough to think that article will change someone’s mind?

The senators harp about qualifications and then equate qualifications with experience. They are not the same thing. Having sat in a chair, or being in a room with people does not touch qualifications.

Speaking of qualifications Duckworth is thoroughly unqualified to ask questions about where to go to lunch let alone examine a candidate for an important public office. The hearing yesterday was a typical hearing, full of bombast, theater, and smuggary and pitifully short on substance.

I have my doubts about Hegseth,, and while I give him high marks for demeanor, I heard no substance to move the needle either direction.

Wasn't my intent. You're not pretending you're stupid, are you? You are a moonbat pretending to be a MAGA wingnut. Being stupid is why you're not fooling anyone.

Disagree. They are highly partisan tribal dolts.


The worst are from the safest states. They will never lose an election. They are mentally lightweights whose purpose is the be performative political partisans.


Mostly agree but I don’t see any part of the performances being smart.
