2024 Elections

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

That is some major fish slap. Maybe a tuna-tap? Salmon-smack?
Looks seriously painful - dislocated jaw painful.

This is why I'm thinking of running myself. I will promise nothing, tell everyone that things are more like they are now than they've ever been, prove it with video of the current headlines, and tell everybody to hang on because I figure to whomp and stomp ever livin' thing in sight that's not zesty. Any non zesty shit that gets away will be stomped later.

Opps! Looks like you stretched and starched one of your cats before the street got paved. Better watch out it doesn't trip over a crack.
Your compassion is polling well with the cat people demographic, other than ones with stretched cats, but dog people are howling mad.

Image

The male fish people like the 'tough guy' image, the women are embarrassed by you.
I am grateful for the support, and I have every expectation that any transgressions or mea culpas that may have dogged me in the past will be only minor distractions in this great and novel campaign of mine. Also I'd like your permission to use both those little videos in various ads I plan to run.

That fish slap I consider to be equal to the first shot at Lexington that started the American revolution.....but in this case will instead be the fish slap heard around the world (or to the edges of the world if you're a flat person). And Stretch the rancid cat who can only manage a stuporous stagger step even if being chased by a Doberman that hates cats is an all purpose and perennial crowd pleaser, as well as a good cautionary tale.

In any case, both of these I feel will be very useful to illustrate various parts of my platform to the hordes clamoring for something different. And that's what I've got.......different.....buckets full of it.
Of course you may use the videos, if you credit me in those tiny letters that no one can read: This video stolen by Vrede too.

Biden needs to retire
Agreed, but who do you want for the nomination
The only viable one I can think of is Newsome.
I would vote for Newsome

Then Biden should sit down for the good of the country..

We need better than "the battle of the really old guys"- just way too many cognitive distractions.

Again, to be replaced by whom? Seems like the bullpen is lacking.

It's important that any replacement is electable. I don't think that's Warren.

Him skipping the debates may actually benefit him. Most candidates are looking for exposure. He's overexposed and prone to stepping on his own crank.

I'm sure the irony is lost on him.

Machiavellian theory of the day: In order to prevent a Dem free-for-all Biden stays in the race long enough to where only Newsom is prepped and funded enough to step up and win the nomination.

Liz is now also too old IMO.

It's coming up fast. If there are any doubts by this time next year we'll probably know who the nominees are.


Hey, y'all are dissing Stretch, neoplacebo's future First Cat, part of his menagerie:
First Fish Slap
First Electrocuted Hummingbird
First Stomped Reptile

**Breaking Future News**: Upset victor neoPOTUS (Party party) stretches, fish slaps, zaps and stomps Putin. Russia surrenders, President Alexei Navalny installed. Volodymyr Zelenskyy retires and stars in the wildly successful US version of Servant of the People, buys a Beverly Hills mansion next door to Rose McIver. Stretch wins the Nobel Peace Prize and is named spokescat for Meow Mix.

As to that horrid cat, just because you can create something on your computer doesn't mean you should. That thing is worse than the cat in "Pet Semetary"

As to Biden/Trump it would be interesting to know what they or their parties have for contingency plans in case their candidate has serious health issues, which at their age can occur without a whole lot of warning. Sure there are people who might like to run, but do you suppose anybody is saying, "so if Mr. X croaks or becomes unable to run, here's what we're going to do..."

With Biden, Kamala would be POTUS or temporary POTUS, thus giving her an instant advantage.

I don't see Dolt .45 and his team doing any contingency planning. It's either TRE45QN or nothing. Maybe the RNC will have a secret 'What if' team, possibly settling on the 2nd place pol in the primaries.

Oh, I think it's a real cat, in the same way that Kardashians are real people. Doesn't mean the photo is entirely real though.

That's what I mean. I thought that it is an entirely real cat other than the loop, but -0-? .

Real cat with a noose around its neck, and the noose erased in edit. Easy to do, but it would seem the cat lovers would be irate.

I've seen angry/scared cats posture just like that, but Stretch is skinnier than others. If there's any photoshopping I think it would be in body elongation.

Thanks, hominy. I always kind of felt sorry for Stretch. I do like that Silly Putty cat, though. If anyone knows where I can get it or one like it I'd take it on the campaign trail with me. Use it an illustration of something gone wrong but not entirely repulsive. Which is the very thing my campaign is based on stomping....things that have gone wrong but are not entirely repulsive. I need these sort of gimcracks to win over the cultists....they understand shit like this on a sort of reptilian level.

Better back off on the reptile stomping then. It offends a core constituency.

Vote neoplacebo, Slinky Kitty and the Party party, they've gone wrong but are not entirely repulsive!

Yeah, sorry but even if RFK Jr. wasn't more than a bit batshit his voice affliction would give me pause. It's not a "presidential" voice. In fact, it's annoying as fuck.
