The gaffemaster has now said that China is a not a threat. He also is going with the Mondale strategy of promising to raise taxes. He's only been in a week. No way he can make it another year without completely shooting himself in the foot.
If fascism ever comes to America, it will come in the name of liberalism. Ronald Reagan, 1975.

2020 Democratic Nomination Process Mega-thread
Oh. Like Republicans flip flopping on family values and crime by electing an adulterer and someone who boasts about sexual assaulting women.BDKJMU wrote:Sure you can changed your mind - its a free country.

"flip flopped" is purely partisan. Are we saying a person can't change their opinion or perspective? Or later regret a decision?
Got it. Thanks BDK
The GOP has no room to talk about Biden when their President is on the record, bragging about sexual assaulting women.

Why people act like changing your mind based on new information is a bad thing ?
WTF?
I don’t believe retail politicians when they publicly change their minds
they might be sincere, but it is very hard to know. Given that the path to greatest reward for a politician is to point to the popular wind, there is a nearly irresistible temptation there and there are precious few of them who do resist it
Biden wants to be President. Just like he wanted to be a VP and a Senator. He changed all of his positions precisely when it would have cost him politically not to do so.
Biden is in good company. I can name only two or three 20th century national politicians who I would consider to have strength of honest convictions. He isn’t one of them.
But you’re right .... for those of us who aren’t trying to get at least 90 million people to vote for us, changing one’s mind is a good thing if you wind up in the right place
Things I’ve changed my mind on:
Capital punishment
State socialism
Abraham Lincoln
toilet paper roll orientation
James Carter (the saxophonist not the President)
Need based public assistance
pistols
dog meat

I used to be a hard-liner on toilet paper roll orientation but now I realize that its relative to whether or not there is a cat around.

Both parties have plenty of examples of extreme hypocrisy. I'd like to think some of that is just due to the duopoly and the big tent idea of both parties, but of course some of it does come down to people themselves and being okay with whatever as long as they win at the ballot box.Ibanez wrote:Oh.

accepting new data and informing yourself should never be seen as bad
While the left is guilty of being wushu washy, the very DNA of a conservative is to never admit you’re wrong and take that shit to the grave.

But I know the answer - it's hypocrisy. Partisan hypocrisy.
And I pretty much agree with Cid on his analysis. If Biden was any other person, he'd be ok to change his mind. But b/c he's a politician, his changing views are suspect (and may he is changing with the times or with the trends).
But hey - good job at defending Trump. Keep sucking his tiny dick. Who gets to get pegged by him tonight? You or AlphaGriz?

If there was a mythical centrist party that Crazy Uncle Joe was running for, Anita Hill would still be lying, bussing would still be bad, being tough on crime would still be ok, etc, etc..
The only new data he’s concerned about informing himself with is poll data to dictate how which issues he needs to flip flop on...
So you're implying that changing your opinion is bad when it's to strengthen your collective electorate
