I suspect the response on cross will be "I didn't understand the question." Two snaps up! Represent!; 2/21/25, 1:40 PM

Seems to me that she has been especially effective.

Your idea of combined "one right after the other" is not the same as suggested in the video, which is "competing at the same time".

Is that seriously your argument, readering? Have you not watched any swim meet? They often have men's and women's events combined during the same day, with a couple of men's competitions happening, then a break to give them a rest while the women compete in their competitions. That's not at all the same as the argument that men and women should compete in the same race. Or fully healthy olympians should compete alongside paralympians, which was the question.; 2/21/25, 5:02 PM
victoria said...: Krimhorn, the only thing that she has been effective at is blowing smoke up the behinds of FOX viewers and raising a ruckus about something that is soooo rare as to be virtually non-existent, and feed in to the paranoia of the right wing.; 2/21/25, 5:44 PM
The Cracker Emcee Refulgent said...: Sooooo rare it became one of the most effective political ads of my lifetime.
“There’s a bare ass in the women’s locker room….”
If it truly is rare than the Donks fucked up big time endlessly hyping it. A little political lesson there. Don’t trumpet 80/20 issues when you’re holding the 20.; 2/21/25, 6:29 PM

Yep. Once again, it's everybody else who's the ugly, icky people. Certainly not Vicki.

What a bright ray of sunshine she is.; 2/21/25, 6:51 PM

I wouldn't call Kyle worthless. While defending himself, he wasted two sex offenders and winged a third.; 2/21/25, 6:52 PM

Yeah, sooooo "rare." www.shewon.org; 2/21/25, 7:10 PM

@Jim at, +1, with the caveat that he should have gotten all four. OTOH, that his case even came to trial exposed the corruption of the Wisconsin judicial system so that’s another positive.; 2/22/25, 5:01 AM
Big Mike said...: Given their treatment of Riley Gaines, it seems to me that the accreditation of San Francisco Stste University needs to be pulled until such time as the administration is replaced by people who understand that violence is not how a university engages in open discussion.; 2/22/25, 5:08 AM
mindnumbrobot said...: Mentally ill people tend to say things that sound mentally ill.; 2/22/25, 7:46 AM
Mike (MJB Wolf) said...: This is logical. Having learned they are inferior to elite athletes of their own sex they chose to pick on girls. Having learned that the girls reject them for not being female they now set their sites on physically impaired athletes. Once they realize that their mental disabilities do not qualify them for the Paralympics (and they are inferior physically within that league) their last gambit may very well be to try children's leagues like Pee Wee football and AYSO etc.

It may not get that far. The fad is starting to burn out quickly without Uncle Sugar willing to pay the bills or look the other way when the fed manifests as child abuse.; 2/22/25, 8:17 AM
