Has President Biden

[MurphOnMillerAve]

President Biden needs to learn to hold his tongue. I had thought he had learned to do so by now, given his decades of experience and its variety, but apparently not.

Just because the tv cameras have activated shouldn’t be the signal to tell everything you are planning and thinking.
Sometimes, wise strategy is to keep your trap shut. Why assure adversaries of your plans and thinking?!

None in that office have ever been able to resist a microphone....

[MurphOnMillerAve]

Yup.

I admire your persistence Robert. The swamp establishment exists even at the county level. Best of luck to you!

my 8 year old daughter loved it. knocking on doors, petting dogs and talking to people. I have till 08/01/2022 to file 300 signatures for the general.

I'm incredibly impressed with you Robert! And, I love hearing about these political game players get their ears "pinned" back and their "arse" handed to them......and you did that in your dialog with them. Bravo.

Best of luck with the election and maybe starting your run as an independent will wake up the "club" and they'll actually take notice.

Interesting point about needing "Women" to run in PA. It seems we have been inundated with women in positions of power in the past decade or two and not just in politics. I see no improvement and empowering women seems to only breed more women seeking empowerment.

Sadly, politics is a dirty business and has been for centuries and most likely millennia. But, my hat is off to you for being a voice of honesty and I wish I lived where I could vote for you.

Well, then that proves equality pretty conclusively to me. Women are just as bad as the men!

I’ll bet! That’s right up her alley for sure. This is where it starts and maybe this is really about shaping her in some way. I believe this is where it all starts…a grass roots movement. I often look at things that happen around my town and say why?

Not sure where you get your news Murph, but Biden has been plagued his entire 50+ years in politics by foot in mouth disease. He does ok when reading the prompter, although even then he screws up, but he absolutely cannot be trusted to talk off the cuff or adlib without direction from his handlers. That is why in many cases where he spoke at press conferences, he gives his spiel and immediately exits the press room without taking questions. His staff knows that he can't think clearly or fast enough to answer without problems. Look how many times in just over a year he's blown up at reporters, even resorting to name calling. Then it's up to his staff and WH spokeswoman Jen Psaki to set the record straight. (They call it clarifying). This latest HUGE gaff before the people of Ukraine, (in Poland), where he stated, (off the cuff), that Putin should not be allowed to stay in power was unreal. The whole worlds news organizations took that as he meant that Putin should either be deposed or otherwise eliminated. The staff later clarified that he meant "just in Ukraine", but he didn't say that. Now news people are wondering, (and probably so is Putin) if the US is calling for Putin's ouster as a world leader or worse. And how about when he was speaking to the Army Airborne about "when you go in"? Did he mean he's gonna puts boots on the ground in Ukraine, or did he just screw up as usual?

Compared with certain Republican leaders (Elise Stefanik, Josh Hawley, etc.) and their QAnon talking points, and Donald Trump, The Father of the American Fascism, Joe Biden is Winston Churchill .

[Mitch]

Do you deny Biden's actions, Neil? Gonna carry water for him until the end?

[Neil]

I agree with his statements. Vladimir Putin is a totalitarian monster, much akin to the Hitler/Stalin model. I'm perfectly happy with Biden telling the Russian people to elect another leader or to forcibly remove this illegitimate leader elected in a totalitarian state.

I don't think we should be engaging with the Russian military directly, unless they attack a NATO country. I'm perfectly happy supplying war materials to Ukraine, just as we did to Britain during the runup to WWII. As long as we are acting in concert with the rest of the free world, I would support our military acts, as unfortunate as they are. That was one of many problems with GW Bush's adventures in Iraq and Afghanistan, they weren't truly supported by our allies.

As a big Trump fan, you should know that his repeated public embarrassment of and verbal attacks on both China and our NATO allies (amazingly incompetent) were much worse than anything Biden has done. Talk about foot in mouth disease.

As for the price of gas, check the price of gas in France, Spain, Canada and the UK. Way up. As far as I know Biden is not in charge of any of those countries .

This really has nothing to do with parties, as both leaders (Trump & Biden) were/are embarrassments and suffer(ed) from "foot in mouth" disease. Biden because he's too old and apparently can't think on the fly......bad for a politician. Trump, because he's an egomaniac and wants everyone to know how smart he thinks he is. But, the results are the same.....embarrassment to your position and your country.

We haven't had a good candidate for a long time and I see no one in the wings ready to step up.

And there's the real problem; two machines pitted against each other as opposed to working for the country picking their vetted pre-approved candidates that march in lock step with their respective machines.

BTW, gas prices have nothing to do with Biden or Ukraine - all oil company manipulations to maximize profit and their political positions; WTI price is still well below the 2008 price so this is all artificial.

[robert.]

No question should be a surprise to a leader. If you’re the president of the USA. You should be ready for someone to ask. What if…. Who should?….and When. At some point someone will ask. “ Should we take him out?” “ How many troops do you see us sending?” If you’re in Poland talking to the military. Be ready for it.
If Bill Gates like to do humanitarian work. Offer 200 million for Putins head. That should end the problem within a week.

Totally agree! Opportunity to make big money and blame something or someone else. SOP for oil companies and no one takes them to task. If you really stop and think about it. This just confirms how "we the people" have absolutely no control over the big picture. Squawk and posture all you want, neither party really gives a damn about their constituents....just another career path.

Oh, if Congress said out loud at a microphone that they were thinking about reviewing the $400 billion subsidy that the oil companies get, things might suddenly change,
