Because Mitch is a stickler for process.

LMAO

Well... the process cannot be changed.  Confirmation hearings have specific procedures/rules.

Complain about other shit.

Personal advice to the group: Don't get even a mild case of COVID.

Hell, I've said that all along.
I don't even want to get a one or two week flu of the regular kind.
Flu sucks and beats the hell out of you.
Stay healthy and safe.

A lot of misery Trump imparted upon Americans.

When officials are shortly going through the process of determining whether the trumps should be afforded bail, they need to remember that the whole family is a flight risk.

How overly simplistic.  And still wrong.

Of course the Trump economy was almost exactly a continuation of the Obama economy.  Charts and graphs amply demonstrate that.

Trump's signature economic policy was huge tax cuts for the wealthy and companies.  Intended to juice the economy, it had very little effect except to raise stock prices, more wealth for the wealthy, partly through stock buybacks.  The intended investment surge simply never materialized.  $1T squandered that could have been used for pandemic relief (or infrastructure if the Virus never blew in)

But Geez, why am I arguing with Red's LOL and uninformed vagueness??

Force of habit?

Red is loud and he makes no sense but he remains certain.

Red is loud and he makes no sense but he remains a cretin.

If I was betting the game today I would care

when you picked the game several days ago the line was -10

and you were told that at the time.

Steelers 24-17 if they play

11/26 8:20 ET Steelers -4.5 Baltimore 45 - POSTPONED - MORE TO COME AS WE KNOW MORE

kid that line now is -10

not  -4.5

there's a process kid.

It had never happened for a SCOTUS nominee before Garland. McConnell gives zero fucks about anything except power.

Pretty sure you could have laid 4.5 last week. 

e Baltimore Ravens went from being a +5.5 underdog coming into what was supposed to be their Thanksgiving Day game against the undefeated Pittsburgh Steelers to now being a +10 dog in what will be a rare Wednesday night game

http://www.gambling911.com/Ravens-Line-Goes-From-5.5-to-10.html

The point was when you picked your Pitt 24-17 score the line was already -10

But you maintained the -4.5 spread well after the line had moved.

You were being dishonest.

SSDD

as I'm keeping your totals  for you I'll carry it as a no-bet or you can bet the -10 line

your choice.

Harry Reid set the stage.  Mitch warned him and now the dems have no one to blame but themselves.

I apologize to this forum for having responded to Bank's football talk on this presidential board.  I have removed the posts.  I trust Bank will as well.

We’ll get Mitch for kickbacks between him and his missus. Mitch can trade a crack at don’s ass for cigarettes in the yard. They’ll have a wonderful time together.

Biden will get just the people he wants. Biden will take down all the frauds and saboteurs that need to go.

The IRS will finally get around to completing Red’s audit. If he calls, don’t let him sleep on your couch.

No worries kid. I actually like watching you lay bad bets and try to squirm out of them. As a study of human nature it’s pretty amusing.
