Biden knocks it out of the park with that speech.

[Dutch Uncle]

Doubtful. If I was to take a position and bet on that he read it several times in sessions ensuring the time was the right amount, having an expert or two
comment on his demeanor, eye contact, head movements, editing some content,
casually certainly, but businesslike. Not his first rodeo.

Agreed. There's a time and place for candid speeches and formal ones. An acceptance speech is a formal occasion requiring a formal speech. It's SOP as anyone who belonged to Toastmasters or have regular engaged in Public Speaking knows.

Dude, if Schindler didn't buy into the Master Race crap, he wasn't a Nazi. More importantly, nobody asked Schindler to kill anyone. Schindler went out of his way, at risk of his own life and livelihood to prevent Jews from being murdered. A Nazi who had no taste for killing would simply look away as most Germans did during the time. Schindler didn't look away and actively worked against the Nazis. Ergo, he wasn't a Nazi except on a piece of paper.

But he was a Nazi. Oops

Again, you are not looking at the bigger picture and, no, it's not binary. It's like saying "You're either dead or alive". That's binary but it's only true in the narrowest of terms. Consider both Christopher Reeves and Terri Schiavo. Are you saying they are easily slotted into the binary view of "You're either dead or alive"?

No, those are different examples. But, unless someone dies, we will have either President Biden or President Trump in February. There is one that is clearly much better.

Suck it Trumppers. Dementia my ass!

I watched carefully for signs of that (as a former dementia care nurse) and saw zero. What a great speech, so much positivity and hope. Exactly what we all need now.

In your expert opinion, please diagnose those here who wreak of dementia symptoms and should be euthanized to relieve the world of the burden they impose on loved ones, care givers and society at large, especially the internet community taxed
by their their copious volume of nonsense. Thank you in advance.

He did fix things, remember the recovery Obama and Biden presided over after Bush’s mess!

That Dog don't hunt, it was exactly because of community organizers like Obama shaming banks into bad loans, for people who did not qualify, that caused the Franks Dodd collapse!!

Dude, the only person who ever begged you for anything was your mom when you dropped out of high school.

Can you reference any quotes regarding your comment?

The ones where you begged me to act with civility while getting berated! Oh a Mom Joke how very sophisticated of you!

 

[Callinectes]

No. Trump does nothing. We're done with that asshole. US has worst record on covid19 in the world.

Well alrighty then! Maybe you can fill in some of the details on what exactly biden is gonna do, over and above what the president is already doing?

"It is what it is." Trump on doing nothing nor caring about the worst pandemic in the world in the US.

 

[Darth Omar]

Cite a credible source confirming your claim this speech was pre recorded, edited, etc.

Joe Biden has given thousands of live speeches in his life

It was a question and not a claim lol.

Why is everyone so defensive about it?

is that what you believe? WOW. Obama shamed the banks into destroying the economy? That is amazing how explanations have popped up since 2008. That is a new one and really stupid.

You make a good point I think are correct.

 

[Eagle_Eye]

You dont think Trump*s speech will have been written by someone else and read from a teleprompter?

I don't think I mentioned Trump now did I?

 

[Eagle_Eye]

Well as I said it was anecdotal from a radio show I was listening to in the sticks. The subject was Hillary Clinton back then. He wanted her jailed and his call in listeners
wanted her hung from the rafters. As we KNOW, she has never been indicted for even a traffic ticket.

If you want a transcription, good luck... Besides, you gave your opinion with nothing, so I offered mine.

So in liberal land callers who wanted Hillary strung up equates to Hannity putting out hate speech. Guess you engage in hate speech also as those on the same political side have said they want Trump dead.

You do understand that just because Hillary has never been charged with a crime does not make her innocent?

Just curious, why do you think about Hillary this much?

LOL. Nah, I only cared for adults with dementia. You might want to talk to Dutch; he's the only with the degree in psychology, which program usually includes at least one class on abnormal psych.

Actually it does make her innocent under the laws of the United States of America.

As for the "string her up" stuff -- yes, that's hate speech. The sentiment is understandable if we're talking about an accused and convicted child molester, a mass murderer, a corrupt IMPOTUS who sells out his country to its enemies, etc. But stringing someone up because you don't like their politics and believe all the bullshit one side has thrown at them for YEARS, that hasn't stuck and never will? Most of us would call that hate speech.

If you look I'm not the one who brought Hillary up.
But since you are so interested I dislike the thought that the elite break the laws and get a free pass whereas the little guy gets burned for the same things.

Can't wait for next weeks 'anger and rage' fest. I was hoping maybe Brian Kolfage would speak, but dang it, he got arrested yesterday.
