I think that part of liking it is the nostalgia of growing up with it and the memories you associate with it. If you take that away, it’s just mostly noise. It’s not exactly Beethoven level stuff for the most part.
I ran out of Dateline podcast episodes today so I clicked around to find something new. Ended up listening to the Smartless episode that had Biden on a couple weeks ago. Haven’t finished it yet but was pretty stunned with how good Biden sounded. He sounds sharp, quick witted, and actually articulates points we’d all agree with here. Not sure why he comes across so drastically worse in every TV appearance. Maybe it’s seeing him that always makes him sound like sleepy Joe, or he’s just better at conversational discourse as opposed to giving speeches or debating? Pretty stark difference, whatever the reason.
Also file under lol democrats. I can’t imagine how anything like this passes the house except with a lot of R votes, that is, if the progressive caucus stands for anything at all. And I have no reason to think these particular Rs would want to “help” Biden.
LOL as literally every one of these politicians files for moral bankruptcy after being exposed as complete frauds and the gold standard of centrist Dem politics is like -70% YTD you’re all like “lol freddbird just doesn’t get it!”
Guys, this is pretty simple. The entire industry is a scam. Fake money is not money. Crooks predictably flocked to a once in a lifetime doing the fraud opportunity. The Presidency is useless. Every supposed innovation of centrist Dem ideology is “fund raising 101.” I get it, you don’t like capitalism. Which changes none of the above.
reading the WH press release, does not seem like it was a layup, and congress always has to approve? what is that deal that majority of unions voting for the terms, is it only maintenance workers who voted no?
