Minor planets have genders now?

It's called "choice," you fascist.

"and he would immediately stop all oil drilling on Federal lands."

Because he HATES the fact that we DID drill our way to lower oil prices...
Not just lower prices, but oil independence and, unexpectedly, lower carbon emissions.  We are exporting Liquified Natural Gas (the LNG facility in Freeport, TX here is online and filling tankers).  That means we have "oil money" coming into the US, not just going out. 

We are oil independent for the first time in my life.  It seems to me we should have been here years ago.  I remember all the debate back during the Bush administration about opening those Alaskan oil fields.  I heard liberals saying it would take 5 years to get oil from them so why bother.  This is why.  Russia and Saudi Arabia are arguing about oil and it doesn't seem to affect us a great deal.  That is a huge change from 20 years ago.

The idea that any candidate would willingly shut that down and go back to the old oil dependence is just nuts.  It is anti-American.

I also just read that Biden said he would immediately make 11 million illegals US citizens, and he would immediately stop all oil drilling on Federal lands.

He also said he'd open the borders of the USA for his first hundred days.

You've just described the perfect left-wing candidate!

If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Forced to choose dear leader? ;/

Well if Covid-19 goes really bad, people are going to elect the non incumbent. We may be stuck with Biden/Cuomo whether we like it or not.
