From the first sentence in my post "I wish he would lay off twitter and be more circumspect" so no I don't approve of all he says but I did explain why he may be that way. Hypocrisy is the property of the major news and cable outlets we see today where they report anything bad about Trump or Conservatives of any stripe but refuse to cover stuff the left does, that is as bad or much worse. The Antifa gang, project Veritas recordings, universities denying access to Conservative speakers on campus and many more egregious examples. Read the book 1984 with an open mind and you will realize it is more akin to the policies advocated by the left today, than the right. Winston Churchill once said " if you are not a liberal at age 20 you have no heart, if you are not conservative at age 40, you have no brain".

More than twitter.

While there certainly are those out there who will attack Biden on health/appearance issues (it happens every cycle, both sides) @NCSNOW comment was nowhere near an attack. It certainly seemed very sincere to me and yet you go on the offensive with "this post is terrible", I mean if you want to counter his comments, fine, do so without sounding so condescending.

I have to agree this is becoming less of a political thread and more of an "Attack the opposite party's people and members" thread. Everyone should back up a bit and try and come back to a more friendly civil discussion. All I see in this thread is "Trump is an idiot and so are the Republicans" and "Joe Biden has no memory". I get that's the easiest thing to say but there's been enough of that here.

ageism for sure. Either people are going to dispute the issues or it’s going to be nasty. doesn’t seem like this is getting called out like my posts did.

His post didn't come across as condescending to another poster, there is a difference

“this is a terrible post” isn’t condescending. The impression I got was the mods want a more peaceful discourse. It doesn’t seem the concern is on both side of the argument.

It wasn't just the "this is a terrible post", there have been other comments that have appeared to be more directed at the poster, and appeared condescending. Again going back for weeks, both sides have been on the receiving end of our request to not do that... and if it wasn't intended that way, no harm. It's really not an issue to get to hung up on, it's not like your post were deleted or any bans enacted.

Obamacare is awful. Healthcare was fine before that mess was put in place.

It's also unconstitutional, government forcing its citizens to buy it.... can't figure out how it lasted so long. Oh yeah that's right Roberts dropped the ball on that one

no, Medicare for all. Which is 80/20. I think the government should subsidize some healthcare costs for its citizens. 80% government, 20% patient responsibility.

mandate was overturned. Why discuss it now? The Supreme Court ruled and now it’s gone.

Less government is better. I can’t see why people would want more.

Especially seeing how more government always means less freedom, more taxes, diminished quality of life, Gov't ruins everything it touches but hey bring on more
