// 130 and 140 year old people making the effort to vote. Hell, one of them even died in 1968. Did he let that stop him? He sure didn't.//

the script is OK but do we know that this went on or do we hope that this went on?
or it might have gone on
or it went on and no one noticed ( I like that one)

The only reason being black and a woman matter is in ignoring it, i.e. come the day when you say “Ah, Joan Smith is president. Fine.”

And IGNORE the fact that she’s black, and a woman!

[Old_Geezer]

“Ah, Joan Smith is president. Oh Gawd, remember what a mess Margaret Thatcher made across the Pond ?”

I think the people of the USA will regret this decision, especially if that woman takes over from Biden, she's a left winger and woke lover which is not the kind of thing suported by the silent American majority.

[jno]

The've called Nevada for Biden, so he's still moving ahead.

[Atheist]

Dave; what do you know about the 'silent American majority'? That's just an imaginary friend of yours that makes you feel good at night under the sheets. Isn't it? If not, please tell me and I'll rethink my view of you.

[allenlondon]

Atheist. Bit unfair to single Dave out, when throwing a stick could encompass SO many of the Answerbank gormless in one hit...

Dave, the American right are seldom quiet, and if this election is anything to go by, no longer a majority.

[naomi24]

I agree with Dave.

Atheist/Allen, why do either of you imagine that your bile has any effect on anyone? It exposes you for bitter, small minded people you are - that’s all.

[Mozz71]

//why do either of you imagine that your bile has any effect on anyone? It exposes you for bitter, small minded people you are - that’s all.//

Referring to differing opinions to your own as bile hardly does you many favours either Naomi.

[royfromaus]

Do you think allen's post is bile or valid, Mozz?

[naomi24]

Mozz, I don’t happen to think it’s right to attempt to humiliate people for holding a valid opinion, or to regard ABers as 'gormless'. That is 'bile'. If you think spitefulness is acceptable then you have a problem. Perhaps you, Atheist and Allen should get your heads together and sort yourselves out.

[Mozz71]

//Do you think allen's post is bile or valid//

I don't think it's vile Roy, but I also don't think it's valid. It's par for the course where Allen is concerned. I stopped paying too much attention to insults on AB, as there are so many of them from all directions.

[Mozz71]

//Mozz, I don’t happen to think it’s right to attempt to humiliate people for holding a valid opinion//

Unless they're liberals, then it seems completely okay for various ABers to band insults around. Never seen you target those ABers before.

//or to regard ABers as 'gormless'. That is 'bile'.//If you think spitefulness is acceptable then you have a problem//

No, I think it's ridiculous and immature//

//If you think spitefulness is acceptable then you have a problem//

I'll expect your support the next time a member of the AB political right starts doing that then.

[naomi24]

Tell you what, Mozz. I’ll say ‘black’ and wait for you to say ‘white’. I won’t wait long.

[Mozz71]

Even better, you continue skirting round and points you don't like, and I'll ignore your political posts given that I'm likely to consider them utter tosh.

Easier life for us both.

[naomi24]

I've skirted around nothing. If I agree/disagree with someone, I'll agree/disagree regardless of politics. Try it.

[Mozz71]

//Try it.//

I just did and you seem to consider that me being contrary for the sake of it.
