Its called playing politics on both sides. mspart

Yep, my bad. mspart

I think this statement is objectively true. I don't know Plasi personally, but from what I have seen from his posts, this rings true. mspart

I hate all this frenchie speaking. I don't speak france. I did propose to my Fie-an-see. I do eat horse doovers. mspart

https://www.cnn.com/2023/03/16/politics/house-gop-memo-biden-family/index.html House Oversight Republicans said in a new memo issued Thursday that members of President Joe Biden’s family received just over $1 million indirectly from a Chinese company – the committee’s latest disclosure in its investigation into the Biden family’s business dealings. The memo, which representatives for the White House and Hunter Biden’s legal team quickly dismissed, does not provide any evidence tying the payments directly to President Joe Biden, which Republicans have said is the purpose of their investigation. The memo names Hallie Biden, the widow of the president’s son Beau Biden, as a previously unknown recipient of payments from Biden family associate John Robinson Walker, who wired members of Biden’s family money after receiving $3 million a China-based company. Hallie Biden and Hunter Biden, the president’s younger son, were romantically involved for a period after Beau Biden’s death. The House Oversight Committee quietly subpoenaed Bank of America for the financial records of three of Hunter Biden’s associates, including Walker, on February 27, which is how it obtained these records. mspart

The recipients of the $1.3 million in payments were Biden, his uncle James Biden and Hallie Biden, the widow of Hunter's brother Beau Biden, Comer said. mspart

My wife just did this very thing with her preschool. Yes, they went all over the place looking for the gold coins. mspart

This is what now constitutes valid debate. A question is asked, it is not closely responded to, and the topic goes to who is more stupider than the other estupido. And then the question doesn't even have to be addressed. mspart

Still a pretty incredible stat. PSU brought 9 to the dance and 7 are still jitterbugging. That is pretty good and explains why they win the team competition most of the time. They wrestle at or above their seed. 7 of 9 in the semis is pretty incredible. Only one of them is out. Dean still has the opportunity to be AA. So 7 or 8 out of 9 AA. That's pretty good! mspart

Perhaps I just don't read as well as you Mike. But it looks to me that you quoted me. Perhaps you mistakenly quoted me and thought you were quoting Plasi. mspart

Bad day for him. mspart

On another note, those top 4 not in the quarters: 149 #4 Henson VT 165 #4 Ramirez COR So the seeding committee mostly had it right I think. mspart

197 - NCAA champ #9 Max Dean lost so is in the consolations. 197 - #11 Smith MD, #12 Brabaugal ILL 285 #9 Davison NW, #11 Hilger WIS, #10 Elam MIZZ mspart

184 #9 Salazar MN so far. mspart

Way to go Brands! mspart

157 #9 Lewan MICH 165 #9 Griffith STAN, #29 Fish MSU (see above) mspart

125 - #28 Cardinale WVU, #27 Ventresca VT, #10 Courtney ASU 133 - #10 Byrd ILL 141 #1 Woods barely made it with a 6-5 victory over #17 Emilio. He's feeling lucky tonight. #12 Filius PUR, #10 McNeil UNC For all three weights, top 4 seeds are all in the Quarters. mspart

And that's why you quoted me? Not buying it. Just more deflection. You should be a politician, you are good at it. Question: What did you do yesterday? Answer: Well, today started with a call to the President and we discussed the Russia/Ukraine crisis. Last week, I was in Brussels meeting with our NATO allies. We came to good agreements on a host of issues. mspart

Perhaps you can put as much effort into answering my question that you quoted as you did in trying to figure out who Charlie Kirk is. mspart

What does that have to do with the question? Does this give license to those students to throw eggs, spray pepper spray, break windows, and injure to police officers? I'll answer for you since I think you might have a difficult time with this one. The answer is: NO, there is no excuse for this behavior, even from left wing students, and those involved should be arrested and convicted and the result put on their permanent criminal record. mspart

PSU has 16, NCState has 12.5 and Iowa has 12. PSU only lost one match in the first session with 9 total wrestlers. NC State only lost one also. Iowa lost 2 matches in the first session with 10 total wreslers. All three still have 8 in the winners bracket. Northern Iowa moved all 7 forward in the first session. PSU showing how to do it. 3 pins vs Iowa 1 pin. Iowa has 4 bonus points, PSU has 8. The trend continues it seems. mspart

Which is more offensive, Iowa or PSU? How do you mean offensive? mspart

Or he did it because he has dependence on it. that is on him, just like being addicted to anything is on the individual. You both can debate how powerful of an addiction it might be, but pot can cause dependence which is addiction which I demonstrated above. This all started with Oliver being censured for pot again. He can't quit it appears. So I suggested he either doesn't care or is addicted. If he is addicted, he feels he can't quit. Or if he is addicted, he doesn't really care. Take your pick. But to use prior to a tourney means something. It is not meaningless. Essentially what you are saying is I shouldn't believe CDC or NIDA. They both say the same thing as I demonstrated. Am I to believe you or CDC and NIDA in the realm of addiction and effects of pot? My gut tells me to go with CDC and NIDA. Sorry guys. mspart

Would you say the same for a heroin addict or fentanyl addict? They have a use disorder that takes the form of addiction. Granted pot is not as addictive as those other two, but addiction is dependence and dependence is addiction. When you are dependent, you are physically addicted. Yes you are responsible for it but it is addiction just the same. mspart

I would hit the BBQ for sure. But I wouldn't try to do so. mspart
