That pesky fake news says that Biden misspoke "SARS" once and Sanders mispoke "Ebola" once.


"No one is in a position where they have a significant financial disability as a consequence of this SARS, of this particular crisis," Biden
"The ebola crisis, in my view, exposes the dysfunctionality of our health care system," Sanders said.

Yeah, that's all I could find. Once. Rather than repeatedly calling the coronavirus 'ebola' over and over.

Ever have an elderly person at a family
dinner and they do something like
call their 2nd wife by their 1st wife's
name and you all ignore it because
you know gramps isn't all there
anymore? That's Rest Home Joe..
Everybody has excuses for him. Aw,
that's just Ol Joe, haha. Well we
know what he means so why correct
him. Somebody always has to drive
him home because he can't get a
license anymore. Thank god..
If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

Which party will be first to decide to hold a "virtual convention" in 2020?

am not sure how we will be handling groups by then but I wonder if arena-sized groups will be prudent even by the July or August dates of the conventions. The Democrat chairman has said that he isn't contemplating it. but do you think both parties should at least have a plan in motion?

The president should just limit all public gathering places to avoid the election. He could then just appoint himself president for four more years,

Honestly voting needs to be done online.

There is no reason for polls to close in a Western country for a pandemic. There needs to be telephone and internet options.
Before anyone says it will be too easy to scam votes, voter fraud is already easy (look at all of the dead people who "vote")..... The internet may actually be safer (you can require verification through SS or DL to confirm your identity, etc.... as opposed to just saying your name and signing a line)

I'm okay with it as long as they don't do a full load test on election day. They should specify a couple test days and tell people to do a practice vote (not for real candidates) on a couple days make sure it doesn't overload or get some fouled up results.
You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

Because that worked so well during the IA primary!

Because that is not a total invitation for voter fraud!

NO THANKS!
The President is a fink.
