The gross failure of the Deep State here is strong evidence it is a myth. -----Original Message----- From: Friam <friam-boun...@redfish.com> On Behalf Of glen Sent: Tuesday, July 16, 2024 6:24 AM To: friam@redfish.com Subject: Re: [FRIAM] tolerance of intolerance
Yeah. It's one thing to wish it or want it. It's another to think more in Marcus' terms and come up with a more complex strategy not involving stupid 20 year olds and no violence at all. I still hold out hope for my own personal conspiracy theory. Biden becomes the nominee. After the convention fades, the Admnistration announces Biden has gone to the hospital for bone spur surgery. Kamala takes over temporarily and campaigns furiously for Biden-Harris. Biden is re-elected. Biden recovers and gets through the Oath (fingers crossed). Then he goes back to the hospital with some minor thing like a dizzy spell. Kamala takes over again. Biden's condition worsens. First Female President. Biden recovers and becomes America's Grandpa. Come on Deep State. Make it happen. 8^D On 7/15/24 17:30, Russ Abbott wrote: > I wonder what Scott's response would have been to those of us who, in > response to the shooting, thought: better luck next time. > On 7/15/24 17:28, Marcus Daniels wrote: >> It ignores the option of doing things quietly and indirectly. >> On 7/15/24 16:46, glen wrote: >>> [Scott's] Prayer >>> https://scottaaronson.blog/?p=8117 >>> >>> I'm currently surrounded by people who believe intolerance is properly not >>> tolerated.
