Did you ‘redefine’ “pretty” when you wrote that assertion?


I think he meant “not Medusa”, more properly phrased “prettier than Hillary,” as in “more pure than Ted Kennedy (or Bill Clinton),” “smarter than Joe Biden.”

If one not only lowers a bar, but digs a ditch and partially buries it, one can produce a “standard” that all but the lowest of the low can exceed, and congratulate themselves as being excellent.

As I understand it, GIbbon was an expert at this sort of sarcastic use of historical fact that looks like a lie from most angles, but is arguably a mode of expression when writing a sort of poetry—Belloc has a good short essay on his use of footnotes, I believe with footnotes in the title. He loved him as a writer of prose (an exceedingly high compliment given the source) but detested him as a historian (an almost as damning condemnation, given the source)—and claims to have read him daily. Sort of like Jerome and Origen.

I thought that the current definition of bipartisan was it’s all give and take. We’re expected to give up everything and their side takes it all.

I would be very afraid if they believed what they actually say.
They claim bipartisanship without support of Republicans in Congress. They lay claim to support from Republicans the likes of Nicole Wallace, Joe Scarborough and Lincoln Project Rejects.

Perhaps the most idiotic statement I have ever read. If you “redefine” any word it has a different meaning than it held previously. Demolishcrats are the masters of redefining the language.

IF you redefine what female is, Biden is a MOTHER.

If you redefine “red,” it can mean “green.” “Up” can become “down.”

Well doesn’t take much detective work to figure out what she was up to and she’s never denied it

Gillibrand misspoke. She meant to say that Biden “was a bisexual leader”. It’s that New York accent that slurs words. /sarc

"President Joe Biden can still say he’s a bipartisan leader, but this requires redefining what bipartisanship means"

It means a humongous leap of faith whatever it is called......
