Rudy Giuliani's Daughter Suggests You Ignore Her Dad And Vote For Joe Biden

https://www.yahoo.com/huffpost/rudy-giuliani-daughter-vote-biden-212639506.html

Kids are cute...when they're little.
After that it doesn't take most of them long to hate you....and do that to you.
whereas a dog will love you forever...if you pick the right breed.

Tell us about YOUR kids, bambu. I thought you didn't have any? if so, how can expound on their development?

I've observed the horror inflicted on friends by their adult children.
Friends, family, work colleagues, neighbours, media.


Doesn't count. if you've never raised children, you don't know shit about them.

I have adult children and I have very open and honest communication with them. Daily. And without drama.

Many of my friends have the same situation. So, run along and play with your poodle, Sunshine.

Then you and your friends are the lucky ones.  A rarity.

Not really, no.

No luck. Hard work and good genes.

Some luck.

But not the rarity he would have everybody think.

Maybe it's his friends.

I liked much of Joe's Michigan speech today.  PEDs really working.

Bottom line: No Pfizer vaccine will be submitted for approval until the 3rd week of November:
Quote
So let me be clear, assuming positive data, Pfizer will apply for Emergency Authorization Use in the U.S. soon after the safety milestone is achieved in the third week of November. All the data contained in our U.S. application would be reviewed not only by the FDA’s own scientists but also by an external panel of independent experts at a publicly held meeting convened by the agency.

The timelines above reflect our best estimates of when these important milestones could be achieved.

I would go with "Red thinks the only racism is against white people."



Joe had a gaffe tonight against whites
Ooooh a gaffe? What did he do? Praise an absolutely bonkers conspiracy theory that has as a core belief an anti-Semetic trope like the blood libel? THAT would be horrific. Unless you are Trump in which case it would be Thursday.

You missed it then?  When Biden said he would assemble a group of "blacks" and "browns" to talk about policing.....

Against whites?

Pathetic

France terror attack: Teacher reportedly 'decapitated' after showing images of Prophet Muhammad

The French president describes it as a "cowardly attack", saying the man was killed because he "taught the freedom of expression".

A man has been "assassinated" in an Islamist terror attack in a Paris suburb "because he was a teacher", France's president has said.
The history teacher, who is said to have discussed images of the Prophet Muhammad with his pupils, was beheaded, it has been reported.

According to Le Parisien newspaper, the attacker was an 18-year-old man of Chechen origin, who was carrying a knife.

"If he chooses" is autocracy.

"If they choose" is democracy.

I imagine they will choose someone less tainted with Trump and family history, and (by then)  a somewhat shorter rap sheet.

Red,  I went to a website that explains law to simple-minded people like me.   It said this about precedent:

   In common law legal systems, a precedent or authority is a legal case that establishes a principle or rule. This principle or rule is then used by the court or other judicial bodies use when deciding later cases with similar issues or facts.  The use of precedent provides predictability, stability, fairness, and efficiency in the law. The Latin term stare decisis is the doctrine of legal precedent.

The precedent on an issue is the collective body of judicially announced principles that a court should consider when interpreting the law. When a precedent establishes an important legal principle, or represents new or changed law on a particular issue, that precedent is often known as a landmark decision. 


Then I went another place that helps simpletons and they said that Roe was a landmark decision.    

Don't we want "predictability, stability, fairness, and efficiency in the law?"

So wouldn't a scotus justice who has regard for landmark decisions help promote those good things?
Except of course, you can’t produce a law, only a court opinion.  50 years after this “ landmark decision” the country remains split on the issue of abortion.

I partly grew up in a city that,  twenty years after Brown v Board of Ed,  remained split on the value of desegregation.  Nonetheless, Brown was settled law,  segregation was illegal,  and Plessy remained securely overruled.   Hmm.
