Rep. Burgess Owens celebrates the dismantling of the Department of Education, saying it's been "a terrible return on investment" because it's built "no connection with our Founding Fathers and a God who actually had his hands all over our nation."

He got it right…but for the wrong reasons.

Why expert says low gas prices could be sign of economy in trouble

Typically, this is when gas prices go up. So why are they currently dropping?

Republicans may be wanting oil companies to think drill, baby, drill, but they are probably instead wondering how low is low going to go with the price of oil.

The left wing media complains about egg and gas prices, but when they start going down the excuses come out.

Flip left wing with right wing and push that back a few years and you have the same thing.

Biden I did that stickers on every gas pump, complaining about eggs all year last year...

I thought we could only talk about what is happening now. Right @CowboyJD ?

Is that because past makes your case not look so good, or is it because it's different?

It's because I was told that we only talk about what is happening now. You can't have it both ways, your way.

You're losing your memory, dude.

I never said "we could only talk about what is happening now".

I never told you we only talk about what is happening now.

What I did say is you calling out the whataboutism of others was the apex of irony.

You doing it again is even more ironic.

I'm talking about what IS happening rather than excusing what's happening

 

[CowboyJD]

"I'm talking about what IS happening rather than excusing what's happening."

Now you're losing your mind if you think ME saying I'M talking about what is happening now is THE SAME THING as telling you what you can or can't talk about.

Furthermore, instead of selectively editing a single line out of context, let's look at the entirety of the quote.

All pretend, hypotheticals, speculation, and imagination.

I'm talking about what IS happening rather than excusing what's happening by trying to imagine what might have happened if things were different.

I posted the statutory definition of "domestic terrorism".

It doesn't meet it.

It is criminal conduct.

It's not "domestic terrorism".

I didn't even say in that quote that we are limited to talking about what is happening now.....or anything close to that.

I didn't even say you or anyone can't talk about what ACTUALLY happened in the past....or anything close to that.

What I said was I wasn't going to engage in pretend, speculative, imaginary hypotheticals about "what might have happened"......but didn't happen in the past.

I said I wasn't interested in engaging in and try to disprove your flights of fantasy and imagination about what "would have happened" if....yada yada yada.

I'm still not.

Though I did feel the need to thoroughly disprove this attempt to falsely mischaracterize what I said. Whether it was intentional or because your faculties are failing you, I'm not sure. Either way, I didn't say anything like what you are claiming.

As far as I am concerned, you are free to engage in whatever rhetorical devices and arguments you choose.

I'm equally free to respond in whatever manner I choose.....including refusing to engage in your pretend, speculative, imaginary hypotheticals that you think somehow support factual discussions about the statutory definition of "domestic terrorism".

 

[mugatu]

It's because I was told that we only talk about what is happening now. You can't have it both ways, your way.

Ok, what if the thing happening now is the same as the thing that has happened very recently? What if the thing being complained about now was also complained about then and called out for being dumb at the time?

What if I go to Burger King? They say I can have it my way.

What if my aunt had balls?

 

[CowboyJD]

So the mischaracterization of what I actually said was intentional.

You -y behavior is duly noted.

 

[mugatu]

What if my aunt had balls?

Sounds like you'd probably persecute her and maker life miserable, but her sex/gender identity is none of my business. Odd change of subject.

Yes I know you're not being serious but I guess it was some odd way for you to bring up trans issues.

The mischaracterization was intentional. My apologies.
