What's that old adage about arguing with idiots?

You're beating me with experience.

But I get it, you're kind of a loser, so posting on the internet is your only claim to fame. It must be a sad life.

Now that we are blue, OC should ban IQ tests. Everything can instead be explained through privilege (of the outwardly appearing successful folks) and victimhood (of the ones who do not seem to be successful), which can a triple whammy if one finds oneself being disabled, gay, and, say, Samoan as well. Such a person would be triply disadvantaged under "intersectionality". Life dealt them a terrible hand. Can such a person be successful? In OC, we would conclude that it is not possible.

I did not receive a royal flush when cards were dealt but I refuse to see myself as a victim, even if others may do so. One overcomes as best one can in life.

You are more amusing with every post. Sad is thinking a Bentley is a metric for determining intelligence.

You are also posting on the internet. Difference being, I engage issues with topical references and analytical logic in debate ... while you fail to respond to any of that, and limit yourself to desperately hurling sophmoric insults.

Do you have anything to add to actual discussion on topic? Or not ...?

How is it that the democrats just get to keep counting until they win? Someone needs to look into this, there’s not a chance in hell OC is legitimately completely blue.

  • Not all votes are counted on election night, only in person votes and vote by mail ballots that were received some time before the election are tallied at that time
  • Ballots mailed and postmarked by election day are counted as long as they are received no more than 3 days after the election
  • Ballots with signatures that don't match need to be confirmed with the voter
  • Provisional ballots have to be hand checked

It's not nefarious, it's not fraud it happens on every election in California.

ROFLAO...yes, is that how Cortez, as stated before, graduated with honors from Boston University? Sarah Palin bounced around from one school to the next, attending four different colleges, and it took her 6 years to get a degree.

And Cortez was not a bartender "recently." (And even if she were, do you think bartenders are stupid?) Bartending was her second job after her father died--the other, working as an educational director with the National Hispanic Institute.

Things changed for Ocasio-Cortez when her 48-year-old father died of cancer in the middle of the 2008 recession. She started working two jobs — one as a bartender — sometimes working 18-hour shifts to help her family make ends meet.

And people wonder why Orange County turned blue?

"And there was Dana Rohrabacher, the Cold Warrior-turned-Kremlin advocate who — serving well into the new millennium — said just last year that homeowners should be able to refuse to sell to gay people."

Rohrabacher exit will mark the end of those hard-edged, right-wing politicians of O.C.’s Republican heyday:

Why would I be parking people’s cars? I’m fully retired now after a life of well compensated employment since age 12 ... not to mention a very fortunate investment history.

To be clear, you haven’t been “arguing” at all ... just trying to insult to dodge intelligent and relevant questions. I don’t see any sign from you of any ability to actually argue a point.

You’ve said “I’m out” twice now. What you haven’t said, even once, is anything in response to topical challenges. While you ramble about car ownership being a metric for intelligence, others here have been discussing the Blue wave in OC.
