Biden said send me a Congress and I’ll fix reproductive and voting rights. In order to do that Dems must break the filibuster.

I took that as a promise on the table.
It's too late. He should have broken the filibuster while there was time to admit DC and PR as states and pack the court since McConnell showed unambiguously that there was nothing sacred about the number nine. I don't believe scumbags like Manchin and Sinema couldn't have been bought out to push it through.

Come on man you don't buy meat? You want to tell me about competition when entire classes of food products are dominated by 2-4 companies? Can't imagine how shitty grocery shopping and working in grocery stores is going to become once Kroger and Albertsons merge. It's already terrible in San Antonio where groceries are dominated by two chains (HEB and Walmart).
I buy a little meat. I figure to go to Costco tomorrow and buy their loss leader, the still $4.99 rotisserie chicken. I may buy some beef, which will be the cheapest lean beef I can find, which will probably be stew beef at $5.99/lb. If I see a lean top round or similar roast, I may go for that. I grind my own beef in an attachment for an Osterizer blender. I don't eat much meat. The price has gone up a little over the last few years I guess, but not much... I get it all at Costco.

Sinema was already bought out by hedge fund managers. She also single handedly blocked the demise of the carried interest loophole.

I don't buy any of that, except regular Cheerios, when on sale at Costco.

Is Cheerios the healthiest cereal?

They're not only low in fat and calories but also affordable and packed with essential vitamins and minerals.
Cheerios are basically a multi-vitamin in cereal form. I like them, but for some reason they always make my stomach hurt, wife has a similar problem with them.

I have no problem with Cheerios. It's a sometime thing with nonfat milk, some raisins, maybe some sliced banana, a bit of sugar. Quick and yummie! Had that as a kid.

They could just read your posts and be far on their way.
See this is where you are clueless.

I'm talking to 95% progressives here that understand Biden has to win. I'm not the New York times talking to the masses.

I'm telling people how to talk to the masses by acknowledging the reality on the ground. Recognizing Biden's weaknesses that are pretty strong to most people, And recognizing how the economy feels to regular people especially because of things like housing costs.

This way by dealing with them from a place of reality you can actually get them to go out and vote for the right guy.

If I had the attitude of the posters I criticized here I'd just be like hey Biden is like the best president of my lifetime and the economy is the best for everybody so I don't know why are you so stupid?

I mean this is not really rocket science but not sure what's so hard to get. How to approach the masses, not political junkies already on the same page, at least for how important of
It is to vote for Biden

Honey nut or bust
I used to get Honey Nut at Costco. I went through a phase a few years ago in which I checked out a lot of the huge cereal culture that's been going on in America for decades. When I was a kid there were NO sugared cereals, NOTHING! It was Cheerios, corn flakes, Rice Krispies, shredded wheat. We had that stuff. Then Special K came out (didn't like it, but my folks did, I guess). Then Sugar Frosted Flakes, and Pandora's Box just opened and other sugary stuff took over the ever burgeoning cereal aisle.

So, I tried a bunch of stuff around 10-12 years ago, liked a lot of it, over a couple years or so and then I stopped buying it. I realized it wasn't good for me. Only some Cheerios (plain) now, occasionally.

Really? Captain Crunch has been around since I was single digits old. Anyone remember Quisp, Frosted Flakes?

Today the only cereal I eat are plain shredded wheat and Oatmeal ( regular not quick or microwave)

Fucking corn flakes, the cereal literally designed to keep kids from masturbating

MTG didn’t learn the Star Wars lesson. Don't attack someone when they have the high ground. U gonna get sliced up.

Can’t believe Pubs fell for the banana in the tailpipe 2 years in a row. Getting baited on Social Security again.

I don't think Biden had that chance. But I don't think Joe Biden is the guy that will ever pack the court no matter what.

That the economy is great is a bullshit line that will get the Democrats wrecked in November if it's what they run on and then we'll be royally fucked with a Trump dictatorship.
Democrats will NOT claim the economy is great. That's absurd. They can make the case that they're improving things with their policies and more than happened 2016-2020. Big difference.

Gotta say, it was pretty damn good.

I don't see how conservatives are going to frame him as tired, sleepy, mentally unfortunately Joe.
