  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

During the press briefing, Biden also destroyed any notion that Harris has not been on board with all the decisions that he has made as president — a remark that could damage her politically as she looks to distance herself from his disastrous record.

“I’m in constant contact with her,” Biden said. “We’re singing from the same song sheet. She helped pass all the laws that are being employed now.”



So if it’s all good, what is she pledging to do better?

If you were standing for office and you suggested to your team that a good way to start a speech would be: 'I know I haven't been pulling my weight and you're probably disappointed, but I really can't promise to do any better' what do you think the response might be?

Don't go into politics, my friend.

If he's in constant contact with her, wouldn't they be on the same page? Doesn't he WANT her to win?

Something sounds fishy here.

At least she’d be honest.

Do you honestly think that people don't try to do better in this world at whatever stage they are at? Whether you agree with what they are trying to do, isn't it a given that we all, at times, and especially when we are being held to account, promise to try harder, to aim higher? To do better?

Maybe you don't. Or maybe you think it's actually a fault. Or maybe you think that everything that someone does with whom you disagree is a fault. I hope not, because that's a depressing view of the world, always thinking the worst of someone whatever they say or do.

Possibly. It wouldn't be the first time Joe let his ego get in front of his headlights.

It’s A New Way Forward. What’s wrong with her old way? If she can honestly answer that, then maybe you’ll have a point.

So how has Joe been holding Kamala back? Or is Kamala just Joe2?

Why are you sorry?
I like to think that people understand what I mean when I post something because I know I can string a reasonably gramatically sentence together. It's disappointing when they don't.

Well, obviously you weren’t clear enough.
