Honesty is not a liberal value.
They lie as easily as they tell the truth.
Can you even explain the concept of honesty and the value of honesty to a society to a liberal?
You don’t have to be religious to understand the value of honesty and how lying corrodes trust and how lying destroys a society.
How on Earth can you craft logical and effective policies if everything is lies?
How can you have any type of discussion if lying is just as acceptable as honesty?

Toque boy believes the conditions for civil war have been met, and in Virginia, they are already in the counting heads phase.
Sides are pretty clear. Northam hasn’t issued a pardon, but he has issued press releases that are clearly meant to provide cover for that (highly unusual charges). Another state Democrat has committed a misdemeanour by calling for the firing of the police chief over it (state law says state employees cannot do that). People are now calling for the charging and firing of that person, ….
Perhaps Virginia is actually the first domino to fall in the civil war. Maybe it turns out to be nothing.
The important point to remember here, is that a pardon is not a not guilty verdict; it is an implicit admission of guilt, that wrong was done, and that it shall not be punished.
It’s why Northam has simply just done it.
Can we get a million blackface march (or was in clan costume for Northam?) to Northam’s house?
Don’t worry. Governor Klanny McBlackface will pardon her.
The Pelosi agenda was/Is “Resist & Obstruct”…. BUT they complain Trump has not reached out to them during 2 failed attempts to impeach him…. Who do they think they are fooling…You can’t break through or work with a hair ball who’s only response is refusal…
They blame Trump for the Virus spread & economic fall out…but if was Democrat States that brought the Virus into Western USA… Silicon Valley (first death) Washington State had the first Nursing home massive death rate ( clear warning that Nursing Homes were death camps)…NY Governor locks down Nursing homes resulting in a massive death rate.. NJ same, California.. ~80 % of all “deaths” in Democrat States
The Democrat dysfunction response to the VIRUS still has all those States in an economic melt down, rioting by ANTIFA & BLM leadership which is “WHITE” and they have burnt & looting Democrat Cities….Trump does not dictate State constitutional “rights” even when they are determined to destroy themselves…. NY Cuomo demanding Ventilators & BEDS, but when Trump supplied them he did not need or use them…
HOW STUPID DO DEMOCRATS THINK AMERICA IS ?
“( clear waring that Nursing Homes were death camps)”
Aren’t older voters widely regarded as one of the safer Republican blocks?
It is not enough to just say the elderly have a weakened immunity….How, What & Why
There are some serious questions about OLDER Citizen immunity Status. The common practice of making sure that Nursing Home folks get a yearly Flu Shot….MAY create an “opening” gateway that the Virus uses.
The method of creating immunization may be suspect…. The Armed forces that refused to get immunization shots going into Iraq in 2001 comes to mind…
JMHO
stupid enough that only fox news and friends are reporting the worse of the riots and mayhem.
I really want to like Scott Adams. I find him amusing, and agree with most of his opinions. He lives nearby in Pleasanton, CA. And I can overlook the fact that he believes Confederate statues should all be torn down. But I cannot overlook the fact that he says he doesn’t vote. I suspect he feels his vote will never count here in Communistfornia. And he’s right with respect to most offices. But he is WRONG with respect to multiple local issues, Offices, and State Propositions. Voting is his obligation as a citizen. Yes, he is FREE to not vote as an American. But … when the other side is harvesting votes … It’s my responsibility to put his vote in the harrow bed.
Kenji, you should definitely not overlook his stupid opinion that the Confederate statues should come down.
It is wrong to think The North was good and the South bad, just as it profoundly wrong to suggest that the War Between the States was about ending slavery.
I don’t know Kenji at all, but I will assume that his gratuitous mention of his hometown is a mild form of doxxing, and done in a very sneaky way. Unless he can find a way to quickly apologize, I will assume him to be a scumbag.
Hardly. Adams has broadcast his city of residence on many occasions. I can’t say for certain, but I suspect he might live within the luxurious gated seclusion of Ruby Hill Golf Community.
I used to think voting was the most important thing in the world but I’m pretty ambivalent now. I live in a 1 party state and every election will be decided in the Dem primary. In the general election most of the Dem nominees will run unopposed. The only reason I’m voting is to vote against Joe Kennedy.
Hey Kenjii — in a later podcast, Scott Adams said he was registering to vote for Trump and was going to do everything in his power to ensure that Biden didn’t win.
Slap shot, I am elderly and have an underlying medical condition. I am about as afraid of the whu who flu as I am of Andrew Scheer. People who are so freaking afraid of dying are afraid of living. They need to get over themselves because as an elderly man I do not plan on living my freaking life as a prisoner until some idiot f-ing bureaucrat thinks it is safe for me to emerge from the safety of my home. I drink beer, play golf, and if a freaking flu kills me then it should be killing one hell of a lot more people. The idiots are destroying our country and our way of life. If I had the power of God they would all cease to exist.
Old White Guy (oops, I used upper case on White!)…..you said it. I am 63, which ain’t that old, but it ain’t that young, either.
I smoke and drink, too, so I guess that compromises my health to some extent. However, I eat well and I am not overweight, and I walk and hike.
More to the point, though, is that, like you, I value my freedom and I am sick of these nanny nazis telling me that I should be afraid and stay safe and distance and wear a mask and not do this, that, or the other thing.
Live free, and piss on the fear mongering fools.
I find Scott Adams podcasts to be quite long, he seems to plod (and acknowledges that earlier in the podcast).
Pick 1.25x to 1.5x playback speed. Not only does it make it go faster without losing the point, it amplifies the energy.
As always Scott, I agree with most of what you say. The four-sided Presidential campaign of 1860 provides some interesting additional (and relevant) material.
The pardoning power is absolute and it cannot be second-guessed; there is a SCOTUS decision to that effect; an executive cannot limit a future execuive in his use of such power–a SCOTUS decision in the mid-1980’s on that too regarding a federal death sentence Ike commuted. In fact, the pardon power may be inalienable, something that cannot be taken totally away from the executive because it is inherent in the office. The pardoning and the commutation powers can also serve to “take away playthings from the judges” when they are making a mess of a case to spare the people from further embarassment. This notion that a pardon can only be a forgiveness seems to have started with Jimmy Carter when he was trying to sneak Vietnam War era protesters back into the country from Canada.
I think 1860 was more divisive, at least in its results.
