Earth to Tommy. It was YOUR claim that he signed peace treaties all
over the world. For that he mst have started wars to later sign
peace treaties.

So, moron, name the wars you claim Mr Trump started.
That was Tommy's claim. One day you'll learn to read.
Here's a hint,
quarter wit: he stopped or escalated wars started by previous
presidents.
Which wars?
Unsigned out of contempt for the laughing stock of the

You certainly are.
You read when you cannot understand. But of course as usual you do not
read to understand but to support your own stupid viewpoint. I was THERE
and I don't have to read the sort of crap that turns little pansies like
you on.

So exactly where were you?
In all the wars that Trump started?
Or at all the signing of the peace treaties that you claimed he signed?

The "peace treaties" the President had signed, which Tom had claimed
were proof of the President's good deeds.

The question was then asked that as there were no wars at the time of
his inauguration then how could he have signed a peace treaty unless
he had declared a war?

So Tom's claimed peace treaties must have been delusions.

I suggest that you print that in the largest available font size,

your computer desk. Read it before you hit the send button. I have
had a similar warning stuck to my monitor for the past 20 years or so.
It has worked well for me and partly compensates for my incurable
habit of inflicting my analysis and opinion on everyone in range. It
is not unusual for me to write a long rant, and subsequently discard
it because it was not what I consider interesting or worthy of being
read.

You haven't had the slightest insight or thought. Your entire presence here has been to follow the herd and little else. Since you live in Santa Cruz I will assume you are intelligent enough to get a good paying job, but that is all. You do not actually think, you haven't a spot of foresight and as I say, your immediate reaction is ALWAYS to follow the herd. That is why Silicon Valley is dying if not already dead. There are too many people that can be said to be intelligent that cannot think for themselves.
OK, Tom, you started with a personal insult, as usual. That's a pretty
good signal of crassness and intellectual inferiority.

Then you noted that Jeff seems to have a good paying job. You, of
course, don't have a job at all, nor enough education to qualify for a
high school diploma. And you famously complain about your grocery costs,
your living conditions and much else. That should give you a clue that
Jeff is smarter than you. Your misery is really your own fault.

Now, about "following the herd": Can you please give us just ONE example
of a position that you hold which is NOT the default position of the far
right? Can you show us that YOU are not following the right-wing herd?

As I've mentioned, I have conservative friends who think I'm far too
liberal. I have liberal friends who think I'm far too conservative. And
come to think of it, I have issues on which I've changed my views in one
direction or the other. I think this is evidence of actual thinking, of
NOT following the herd.

I see none of that with you. Everything you post here could have been
pulled off a Rush Limbaugh transcript. Only the personal insults are
original, and they're not even clever.

Why not just give us a link to Rush's radio show and stop posting? It
would save everybody's time, including your time. You could spend the
time looking for a job, or maybe getting your shifting to finally work
correctly.

I only insult people that deserve it. You, Beattie, John always and Jeff upon occasion deserve insulting. Jeff, mainly because he has a herd mentality and attempts to defend some moron like you or Beattie. You other three because you are morons that cannot keep from demonstrating it. You are mindless little ****s that are loud mouthed only because of your distance. Beattie has sealed his own fate and I certainly don't have to worry about him. Also I am in a far greater financial position to make it through the coming 4 years than you are so I will remember how the German's treated the Poles in their prisoner of war camps because you're about to discover all about that. John is simply a useless fool that believes he is far more important than ever he was. Biden will cause a world wide depression and if John thinks he is going to miss the results of that he is acting normally for him. The Thai gangs will take good care of him.

Nikita Khrushchev said these in front of American reporters back when there was such a thing.
Where does it say on quotetab.com where and when Khrushchev said
something? I problem is not that he said "we will bury you". I think
we can agree that he did say that. The problem is when, where, and to
whom did he say it. According the collective wisdom found on the
internet, he said it 3 years before visiting the USA at the Polish
embassy in Moscow. Try to find a non-Facebook link that suggests
otherwise.

By the way, your 1st and 3rd URL's are duplicates:

People like you don't know that Khrushchev was the general at
Stalingrad that won the war.
Amazing. Until now, I had always thought that the defense of
Stalingrad was commanded by Geory Zhukov with some political
assistance by Khrushchev to remind him that Stalin was watching..
Stalin was watching and suspected that Zhukov had political
aspirations and might become a threat due to his popularity and
successes. So, he was demoted. When Stalin died, Zhukov was astute
enough to pick Khrushchev as the winner, and ended up minister of
defense.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgy_Zhukov
Had Russia fallen the German Troops would be largely back on
the western front
True. Basically, Russia won WWII by keeping Russia busy so the
western allies could organize a second front. Incidentally, the
Russians called the cans of Spam that were sent to Russia by the USA
"Second Front".
and German scientists had already envisioned nuclear weapons
which is why we struck them so soon and without all of the
supplies that such an invasion required with the large part
of the German Army away at Stalingrad, we still damn near blew
it at the Battle of the Bulge.
If anything, the allies had a surplus of supplies. The problem wasn't
getting sufficient supplies to England. It was getting them to
Normandy ports and distributing the supplies to the troops which were
moving rapidly in the general direction of Germany. Some of the
innovations, such as PLUTO (pipe line under the ocean) and Mulberry
harbors, were a huge help.
If you're so stupid that you don't know that Khrushchev was a
commanding officer of epic proportions perhaps you ought to grow up.
I don't see what my height has to do with my understanding of WWII.
Perhaps your should remove the right wing polarization filter from
your eyes when reading the history of WWII?
He knew each and every step to take.
Hardly. It didn't get him into Disneyland.
https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/nyet/
But Russia, after the fall of the USSR did not want to take them.
But that plan fell into the hands of the Chinese Communist Party
which has been exercising it with the help of the Democrat Party
and the assistance of the Lame Stream Media. I have seen war and
it isn't pretty. You will in all likelihood see it but from the
wrong side of a barrel.
Take what steps? Start a war? Khrushchev was retired from office
partly because his confrontational style as a counter to the US
brinkmanship style, nearly started WW 3.0 which is generally
recognized as a bad idea and no-win exercise.
I thought he was removed due to his poor selection of household appliances. https://tinyurl.com/ycg4cva3 Nixon -- one of America's great appliance salesman. I hear Khrushchev even bought the extended warranty and upgraded lint filter. Brezhnev clearly wasn't buying it.

-- Jay Beattie.
What does this have to do with those "peaceful demonstrations" in Portland?

Nonsequiturs abound.
That response of Jay's pretty plainly showed that he was part of the communist plot. We don't have to worry about him. He is going to be killed by his own kind because he knows too much.
Nah, the ones the commies kill to return to Year Zero don't have to know anything, or do anything. Martyn Latsis, speaking for Dzerzhinsky who sat next to him but suffered a throat infection -- he was a consumptive--, explained the policy of the Cheka (the first name of the Bolshevik secret police). ‘We are not carrying out a war against individuals. We are exterminating the bourgeoisie as a class. We aren’t looking for evidence or witnesses to reveal deeds or words against Soviet power. The first question we ask is—to what class does he belong, what are his origins, upbringing, education, profession? These questions define the fate of the accused. This is the essence of Red Terror.’

Ironically, under that definition the first one to be shot should have been Lenin, under the old order a nobleman. (His father was ennobled for services in the Education Ministry.)

As you say, an insurance lawyer is the perfect example of a bourgeois lackey to be shot.
Hardly. I'm The Man. I do the shooting. My first secretary nka "assistant" was married to a sheriff's officer, and he told me in 1986 that I could get someone shot and killed for $300. I always thought that was an incredibly good value. In 2020 dollars, that would be $721, still quite a value -- and probably subject to negotiation down to say, $715. You're going to pay more than that for a nice pair of wheels. BTW, I got shot at -- or around, I never knew where the bullets were going. It's no fun. I also saw a lot of shot people and can say for sure that they were not having fun. One should not take shooting lightly.

What you really ought to do it try and have someone assassinated. Please make the hit men aware of your presence. Please.

Yawn

Typical Tom post. First, it's deflecting away from the issues raised in
the post to which you're responding. Second, it's primarily a vomiting
of grade school insults. Third, it finishes with your usual pile of
apocalyptic predictions, for which you are still batting zero.

Why not address what I said? Explain why John, Jeff, Jay and I are all
apparently much more prosperous and content in our lives. You claim
you're the brilliant one, but we four actually lasted more than a few
years in our jobs! We pay for groceries! We live in places that make us
happy! Why are you so terminally miserable?

And explain why nearly every idea you spout could come from Rush
Limbaugh. Explain why you never, ever disagree with any part of the
right wing party line.

IOW, explain how we can tell you engage in independent thought. I see no
evidence.

True. I don't think about you very much. What little thinking I do
about you requires little insight or thought.

Your entire presence here has been to follow the herd and little

The R.B.T. "herd", which was previously known as the "majority",
hardly agrees on anything other than your contrived facts, rightist
opinions, bizarre logic, uninformed politics, counterproductive
writing style, amazing predictions, etc could use some major rework.

Lead, follow, or get out of the way. Since you're not leading, and
nobody is following you, you must be in the way.

Since you live in Santa Cruz I will assume you are intelligent
enough to get a good paying job, but that is all.

I live in Ben Lomond, not Santa Cruz. I closed my office in Santa
Cruz and moved everything home around the end of September, 2020. I
thought I had officially retired, but my attorney informed me that it
would be best if my retirement coincided with the end of the tax year.
As for a job, I've been self employed since 1983.

You do not actually think, you haven't a spot of foresight and
as I say, your immediate reaction is ALWAYS to follow the herd.

If following the herd means that I agree with others that you are not
capable of intelligent thought or logic, I would certainly agree with
that thundering herd.

That is why Silicon Valley is dying if not already dead. There
are too many people that can be said to be intelligent that cannot
think for themselves.

Not a problem. I suspect that those who you claim are able to think
for themselves will be more than happy to tell you what to think and
delivery the proper opinions to you on a silver platter. If Silly
Clone Valley is horrible, California is dying, American politics is
terminally corrupt, and everything we know to be true is not, they why
haven't you left for a country which embraces your ideals? I'm sure
there's a place for you in any of a number of right wing countries.

read.

You haven't had the slightest insight or thought. Your entire presence here has been to follow the herd and little else. Since you live in Santa Cruz I will assume you are intelligent enough to get a good paying job, but that is all. You do not actually think, you haven't a spot of foresight and as I say, your immediate reaction is ALWAYS to follow the herd. That is why Silicon Valley is dying if not already dead. There are too many people that can be said to be intelligent that cannot think for themselves.
OK, Tom, you started with a personal insult, as usual. That's a pretty
good signal of crassness and intellectual inferiority.

Then you noted that Jeff seems to have a good paying job. You, of
course, don't have a job at all, nor enough education to qualify for a
high school diploma. And you famously complain about your grocery costs,
your living conditions and much else. That should give you a clue that
Jeff is smarter than you. Your misery is really your own fault.

Now, about "following the herd": Can you please give us just ONE example
of a position that you hold which is NOT the default position of the far
right? Can you show us that YOU are not following the right-wing herd?

As I've mentioned, I have conservative friends who think I'm far too
liberal. I have liberal friends who think I'm far too conservative. And
come to think of it, I have issues on which I've changed my views in one
direction or the other. I think this is evidence of actual thinking, of
NOT following the herd.

I see none of that with you. Everything you post here could have been
pulled off a Rush Limbaugh transcript. Only the personal insults are
original, and they're not even clever.

Why not just give us a link to Rush's radio show and stop posting? It
would save everybody's time, including your time. You could spend the
time looking for a job, or maybe getting your shifting to finally work
correctly.

I only insult people that deserve it. You, Beattie, John always and Jeff upon occasion deserve insulting. Jeff, mainly because he has a herd mentality and attempts to defend some moron like you or Beattie. You other three because you are morons that cannot keep from demonstrating it. You are mindless little ****s that are loud mouthed only because of your distance. Beattie has sealed his own fate and I certainly don't have to worry about him. Also I am in a far greater financial position to make it through the coming 4 years than you are so I will remember how the German's treated the Poles in their prisoner of war camps because you're about to discover all about that. John is simply a useless fool that believes he is far more important than ever he was. Biden will cause a world wide depression and if John thinks he is going to miss the results of that he is acting normally for him. The Thai gangs will take good care of him.

Bring on the world wide depression.

During the great depression of the 1930's the stock market dropped by
89,2% (on July 8, 1932) so your investments will be worth 10 cents on
the dollar, while mine, not being in the stock market will remain the
same. And, as costs of necessary foods decreases in cash terms during
a depression my funds will go further, in effect making me richer in
purchasing power.

As for Thai Gangs, don't make me laugh. Crime in the U.S. is far
higher then it is in Thailand. The murder rate in Thailand is 40%
lower then the U.S. and the "all crime" index is 20% lower.

And, I might add, the U.S. is, apparently, a country of evil doers as
the incarceration rate of 655/100,000 is the highest in the world.

You, Tommy, are a joke!
