As long time readers of "rinselberg" are likely already aware, this is just a Subject or thread name that I "had" to use.
But there can't be a Subject (field) without a subject. Unless we were to consider the possibility of the Empty Forum Subject, and who really wants to do that? So here goes:
| quote | | Democrats oppose Anthony Tata's nomination [for undersecretary of defense for policy] over Islamophobic [sic] social media posts [about President Obama], but it's a fight with a GOP senator [that goes back to 1969 and the Vietnam War] that could upend him. |
|
Get it here (unless you're already satisfied with having read my Subject field.)

| quote | | James Anderson, who had been acting undersecretary for policy, resigned Tuesday morning and he was quickly replaced by Anthony Tata, a retired Army one-star general. A short time later, Joseph Kernan, a retired Navy vice admiral, stepped down as undersecretary for intelligence, hastening what had been an already planned post-election departure. Kernan was replaced by Ezra Cohen-Watnick, who becomes acting undersecretary for intelligence. |

Just as we are all aware you are a completely worthless excuse for a man.
Now crawl back into the feted dampness of your own cowardly mind and resume screaming at yourself that you are normal.
No one is interested in your less-than-human existence.
Not even you.

Hey Boondawg, that (from randye) was BEFORE the recent (August 15, 2020) New Forum Rules declaration by Cliff Pennock.
The New Forum Rules declaration is (I believe) a "watershed event" in the history of this forum.
You are fully read up on what I am talking about? I know you were part of the public discussions about it that included Cliff Pennock.
I guess this is one of the risks that was just assumed by me. The risks of bringing up any Topic that was active before August 15, 2020.
I actually hesitated, thinking "What if Cliff Pennock sees that?" but I wasn't anticipating that you would come in here.
I extremely do not like or appreciate that message, but I view it as part of that forum's ancient history, and not something to think about again now.[This message has been edited by rinselberg (edited 11-11-2020).]

Realizing you've got some pretty strong opinions (as do I), this goes past the line IMHO.
I'm sure you'll say that it is in response to a post you don't approve of but, I would argue that Randye has posted that same post numerous times and to my knowledge has never been put on probation by Cliff. Just letting you know my position.
BTW, the GOP Senator is not against Tata, he's just trying to get some names put on the Viet Nam Memorial and using his new power to try and make it happen.

More than 1000 times. I am just about certain of that. But I just categorized it as "ancient history" and not part of the forum as it exists today. I think that's how everyone should categorize that message.
I don't care what you think about that message, Rams.
Rest assured that I only entertained the idea of sending you a PM as a Break Glass In Case Of Emergency kind of measure.
It would be an "emergency" if I were to be misconstrued as anything less than 100 percent enthused about the First Amendment.
Something that happened just the other day, in another discussion.
But this isn't such an emergency.
Read-o-Meter estimates that anyone could have read this message in about 17 seconds.

It really doesn't matter what I think of that message, what matters is what Cliff thinks. His house, his rules. 
Precisely my point. I have to assume it's an allowed comment. Whether there's any truth to it is not something I care to investigate.
But, thanks for reading my post concerning it.
I don't normally read many of your posts but I do find some of Boonie's worth reading, this was not one of them.
