Re: Almost a caricature
Maybe someone with the charisma of Jack Kennedy and the ability of Lyndon Johnson?

Re: Almost a caricature
The idea of decline isn't all that preposterous.
Look around, whether it's the bulletholed slums of Detroit or the swamps of New Orleans (where they keep building and re-building the same shacks without remembering that every decade or so a hurricane wipes them out) or the feces-speckled streets of San Francisco or the Midwestern farms eroding away, dumping nitrates, pesticides and herbicides in our water supply or the antibiotic and hormone-laden meat we eat or the overprescribed opiates or the potholed streets and collapsing bridges or the Superfund sites or the bloated, clientelist government or the bloviating politicians who promise the world but forget it has to be paid for . . .
Yes, we may indeed be turning into an enormous, well-entertained, obese, caffeinated third-world favela.

Considering there are only 2 choices, Dem or Rep, who of the viable alternatives in either do you feel comes closest?
Or should we just take our ball, go home and sit out this next election?

We don't know what the Dem choice will be yet, do we?

Re: Almost a caricature
The question, Sarah, is who on either side would you feel comes closest to your ideal if any.

Denouncing our support of Israel and parroting the Palestinian line and badmouthing Jews. Not to mention denigrating remarks about the US.

Re: Almost a caricature
My mistake. I meant the direction, which is the dominant direction despite Trump's efforts, the Dem party is taking us in.

Re: Almost a caricature
I certainly don't think decline is "preposterous," but I'd attribute it to God's judgment, the instruments of which lately seem to be largely on the Left.

Denouncing our support of Israel and parroting the Palestinian **** and badmouthing Jews.
Two remarks that some took as anti-Semitic and for which she apologized. Your characterization is ridiculously overblown.
Not to mention denigrating remarks about the US.
Dissent will not be tolerated! We'll have no freedom of speech here!

sounds like you're starting to criticize the government of your country, probably best if you go back to where you came from.

Re: Almost a caricature
When I read your posts I often see strings of asterisks: "****"
Why is that?

Re: Almost a caricature
There are lists of prohibited words. One for the site and one for each user. Admin has greatly expanded Faith's list in an attempt to encourage her to reduce her incoherent and off-topic rants. It isn't having much of an effect in that way, but it does make her messages hard to read.
