THIS. This is why people here give you so much shit. You want to dissect and wordsmith every fucking post, no matter how inane. I would say several is some # < 10-12. But hey, you do you.
Spoiler: show
And I looked up the definition too…nowhere does it say “5 tops”. Few is defined as “not many” e.g., three roses…so 3-4 would be “a few months”. Several months is more than that, and certainly more than 5.

Here endeth the lesson.
So if a team beat another by 10-12 TDs they only won by ‘several’ TDs. :suspicious:
And ‘several’ again is defined as FEWER than many. So several months is not ‘certainly more than 5’..

Were not going likely going to know until late this year or more likely next year, if Trump is going to be running in 2024. Either way, it won’t be in ‘several’ months.
How about this: If I ever want a fucking English teacher, you’ll be the first person I’ll call. Honestly, you focus on the strangest shit.

We will know in SEVERAL months.

Nope. We’ll know roughly between 10 to 17 months from now (Nov 22’-June 23’) :D

Biden to deliver his 1st SOTU March 1. It will be the latest in the year any POTUS has ever made the address.

They’re usually in Jan, and every POTUS in our lifetimes sans Reagan (early Feb) has made their 1st SOTU in Jan.

Question is, why so late for Biden?

And debate isn't necessary: people will vote for or against him regardless of which feeble old corporate hack the Democrats put up. Last time they voted there were 7,000,000 more votes for the tired old hack who is likely already drooling in his porridge than there were for Trump. (Who btw way lost the popular vote by nearly 3,000,000 votes to the most unpopular politician in recent history.) :coffee:

His staff is still trying to figure out how to get him to stop reading the {END OF SPEECH} statement at the end of the speech.

Biden's hyperbole is excessive but I'm not sure it's worse than Trump's was.
Those who can read may get something different from the link.

We can't all be members of MENSA, LeadBOSBFlt. I did start to read the opinion piece but it was too full of partisan, right-wing hyperbole to waste my time. It was similar to the partisan, left-wing hyperbole I would expect from Vox or Huffpo.

It was an opinion piece filled with partisan opinions, not a journalistic article filled with facts and truth. It deserved the Fiver treatment.

The first sentence was enough for me to not continue reading that partisan drivel. Why is it that Republicans/Conservatives get so angry over mainstream news being lefty but then only read and listen to news that fits their points of view? Seems to me that they don't really care about independent reporting, just reporting that validates their thinking.

Re: Biden’s Scorecard

comical. Delusional. Just like our current president. How ANYONE could watch that press conference and come away with THIS assessment just shows how broken our politics are in this country:

https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/biden-p ... in-walling
For all the talk of "Sleepy Joe" or complaints about his not facing the press, on Wednesday President Joe Biden demonstrated to the American people his firm grasp of both domestic and foreign policy issues in what was the longest press conference from a president in recent American history.

Americans saw in their commander-in-chief someone willing to speak earnestly and frankly with the American people, and his command performance Wednesday harkened back to an earlier Biden from the campaign trail: forceful, direct, self-deprecating and earnest.

It has admittedly been a tough few months for the president and his stalled agenda on Capitol Hill, no thanks to Senate rules which require him to find the support of 10 Republicans who are committed to opposing him at every turn.

Yet, the president rightfully highlighted his groundbreaking achievements since taking office one year ago today, including an economy with the lowest unemployment in more than five decades, a booming stock market, and rising wages, salaries and disposable income for American workers, especially those at the bottom rungs of the economic ladder.

They do - their opinion section has been quite critical of Biden for a while.
From CNNs front page

https://www.cnn.com/2022/01/20/politics ... index.html
Fact check: A look at Biden's first year in false claims
When President Joe Biden passingly said in a voting rights speech last week that he had been "arrested" in the context of the civil rights movement -- even suggesting this had happened more than once -- it was a classic Biden false claim: an anecdote about his past for which there is no evidence, prompted by a decision to ad-lib rather than stick to a prepared text, resulting in easily avoidable questions about his honesty.

I don't think criticizing Biden is the equivalent. Having staffers writing opinion pieces supporting Trump would be the equivalent.

Point being that despite all of the illiberal pearl clutching over Fox, I believe they still have more journalistic integrity then CNN.

Not to mention getting the taxpayers to shell out for what are certain to be very large legal bills.

It doesn't matter how badly Joe fucks up. It only matters that he isn't Donald Trump. Just like the only thing that got Trump elected on a technicality was that he wasn't Hillary Clinton. (Who still got a couple million more votes plus.)

Now Dallas choking away a playoff game to the left coast 49ers.... thats a fucking Rembrandt of a slo-mo train wreck.... :notworthy:
