Yes!! Just incredible.

The mention of NewOldGuy…. That theatre script he put together about Duke assistant coaches going out recruiting was just incredible. One of the funniest things I’ve ever read. Pep was terrific. How’s kik84? Anyone recall fungo from TarHeelTalk? Brownie?

I’d say that, more than anything, it’s the relentless propaganda. I remember hearing Rush Limbaugh in the early 90s and thinking….wow, he smears people, makes wild claims, pushes misleading ideas, is nonetheless (sometimes) funny and charming — for HOURS everyday. What’s the end for this...

I think water is a good drink.

So, Callatory….you're saying you’re wrong about the condoms? If so, where did you get bad information? Did someone tell you a falsehood? Who? (Not the Atlantic, I’m pretty sure….to return to an earlier conversation…) Beyond poverty, my understanding is that USAID supports pro-democracy efforts...

Sure. But we could create a website in the next 15 minutes and send it around our Facebook friends and so forth. I don’t think it would take more than 48 hours to be thoroughly all over the place. I’m not kidding. I do not think I am naive — we are in insane times. Bad stuff can happen. But...

Again, how do you people put up with Callatory? An ignorant guy? Or ragingly dishonest? Some blendy-blend? Anyway, I mentioned on a different thread….should it not be kind of easy to make Elon Musk a widely recognized villain? We are not talking about Trump….We are talking about an unelected...

I do understand. I do. It’s incredibly depressing. I was just thinking of how overwhelming it is. Do you defend the general concept of USAID? Or get stuck debating aid to Ukraine in 2014 vs. RFK, Jr’s allegations about USAID paying for a coup? So much insanity cutting in so many directions...

From a political comms standpoint….and maybe a better discussion for a different thread….but shouldn’t it be fairly easy for liberals in politics and the media to turn Musk into a big-time villain? Richest person in the world? Who was not born in USA? Assuming such control over viral...

Not sure if this is best to include on this thread, but thought I’d share. My girlfriend works at a private school and recruits international students and coordinates short- and long-term visits. She has a group of 8 or 9 Brazilian teenagers in town, and they visited Charleston late last week...

Callatory's response here is unimpressive to me. I didn't say "pure" meant entirely not-liberal. I also didn't say the Atlantic is perfect. I do think, though, that our fellow poster might be more thoughtful and better informed if he were to read the Atlantic. Anyway, whatever.....MAGA...

How could anyone possibly think that CNN can boast "purity" or is especially liberal when they put that propagandistic Trumper Scott Jennings all the time? Pretty sure you don't understand the mindset of liberal folks when it comes to the so-called mainstream media. By the way, the terms...

I don't post or comment or whatever here much these days. But this Callatoroy guy....good grief. How do you all handle it? More extremist/ignorance? More extremist/dishonesty? Maybe just some trolly combo deal? If I'm being unkind or too personal, please feel free to delete my comment...

Outlaw Country and Little Steven's Underground Garage! And Tom Petty channel! I'll check in with MSNBC occasionally.

And this is by one of my best pals growing up. Terrific musician. He put this together after the election: "You fell for the ruse/ That you ain't got nothing to lose/ That no matter what you choose/ They ain't coming for you... We tried to warn you"
