It is. It's very common. I do it all the time. It's just part of our culture. But a lot of wrong things are part of our culture. There was a time when we called people "colored." If you'd been around when we stopped doing it and "PC" had been a term...my2hands said:
The funny part is 90% of the women in my office refer to each other as "girl" constantly... also when i watch Real Housewives of Atlanta with my gf, they constantly refer to each other as "girl"oftenreading said:

Oh, maybe now its Womens night out!!!
Lol, gimme a f'ing break
How very progressive.
Maybe it's learned? Lol
Or it is like the N word, where only black people can use it?
Some folks are SOOOOOO uptight, do they get out and socialize in the world, or just read PC guidelines? Lol1995 Milwaukee 1998 Alpine, Alpine 2003 Albany, Boston, Boston, Boston 2004 Boston, Boston 2006 Hartford, St. Paul (Petty), St. Paul (Petty) 2011 Alpine, Alpine

            republican VP won't have dinner with females and calls his wife mother - creepy as fuck who probably secretly lusts after his own mother
democratic VP puts his hands on women/colleagues, massages them, sniffs their hair, kisses them on the nose - nice and innocent guy.Your boos mean nothing to me, for I have seen what makes you cheer0 -

Come on Cincy...you mean you do not go around sniffing hair, rubbing noses. LOLcincybearcat said:
Sniffing hair is friendly and affectionate? Seriously? Dude is straight up creepy. What he has been doing is creepy and inappropriate and needs to stop. And people need to stop making excuses for him.PJ_Soul said:
No, it is not part of the purpose IMO. Making a nice, innocent person to look like a creepy pervert is most definitely not part of the purpose. I'm not arguing that he shouldn't stop, but this is a SMEAR campaign, not friendly advice to stop being so friendly and affectionate in a completely non-sexual way. And it is VERY clearly being used as a political weapon in this case.cincybearcat said:
I don’t think it’s weaponized. This is exactly part of the purpose. To get old creepy guys to understand when they had been creepy and to stop.PJ_Soul said:cincybearcat said:

Interesting priorities.curmudgeoness said:If you are going to try to make the case that Biden is creepy and/or out of touch, I suggest also referring to adult females as "women."As a woman, I say there is nothing "creepy" about Biden at all. He does need to stop being so damned affectionate like that obviously. I'm sure he's now learned his lesson. I'm guessing nobody has called him on it before exactly because it is completely innocent, kind behaviour, and it was awkward to mention.I would like to say that I am PISSED that the #metoo movement is being weaponized in this way.
Its fine if you don’t think it’s creepy. The ladies who have come out thought it was. I think it is. I wouldn’t leave my daughter alone with him. He obviously doesn’t understand how not to behave like a creep.Give Peas A Chance…0 - 
            
These are both fucking weird, neither individual has a recorded history of anything beyond 'fucking weird' behaviour.

We only need to evaluate his own words to understand his intent. None of us know Biden's. We could also count court filings as another point of reference.

I think, though, that the public and media has its own way of determining what is and is not a non-starter. Joe is going to be unelectable. Pence is not. That's in part because nearly half the country has thrown away any moral code to ride Trump. But it is what it is. Biden is done.HughFreakingDillon said:republican VP won't have dinner with females and calls his wife mother - creepy as fuck who probably secretly lusts after his own mother

That said, there are tiny little things the left is picking apart about most of 'em. Klobuchar is too pragmatic. Gillebrand went too hard after Franken. Hopefully we have more than a picked-apart carcus to run in 2020.1995 Milwaukee 1998 Alpine, Alpine 2003 Albany, Boston, Boston, Boston 2004 Boston, Boston 2006 Hartford, St. Paul (Petty), St. Paul (Petty) 2011 Alpine, Alpine

A point I have tried to make several times. well said benjs.benjs said:
1. On the "name-calling assholes" (which, by the way, ironically you became one of when you wrote this and called 'em all assholes) - I and several other closer-to-DNC-leaners on here have spent great lengths to talk about the counter-productive nature of mocking your debate opponents. That said, I haven't sees any of this effort from you to be above this behaviour to date. You should practice what you preach, or stop preaching. Either would be nice.my2hands said:
Democrats platform since late 2015: Trump sucks... am i missing something? You really need someone else in this tiny echo chamber repeating that ad nauseammrussel1 said:
You haven't said anything positive about a democratic position or negative about a Republican one in forever. If im wrong, then I apologize. And I think you've seen me criticize a host of progressive positions where I think they are too liberal.my2hands said:
Coincidence that we try to call it fairly regardless of party?mrussel1 said:
It's interesting that two of the most vocal anti Biden here, Cincy and Two Hands, are generally critical of Democrats. Coincidence?
You realize i'm a registered Democrat that has never voted for a Republican, right? that has openly stated i will likely be voting Biden in the primary, and have voted for him previously? That doesn't mean i'm going excuse it away as creepy innocence and try to act like nothing is there... blame Joe not Cincy & I
And yes, i will always hold my party accountable and to a high standard... and YES i'm always going to question and criticize politicians in all parties, especially my own
Feel free to go back to your team sport, go blue!
GOP positions, i disagree with 75-90% if them top to bottom, maybe more... again, you need someone else in here screaming how bad they suck? Fuck dude, how boring do you want this place. It's a rock bands message board, you want me to bang out policy positions with my phone and debate them with people that won't change their mind anyway? Yeah, no thanks.
Sorry i dont meet your standards of being a good Democrat, or AMT Team Blue member, i'll try harder
What i have been saying for 6 months is being a bunch of elitist name calling assholes isnt going to win 2020, and makes us as bad as those we supposedly despise. And the russian red scare has been oversold. Oh, and cable news is divisive toxic bullshit.
It's so funny... if you dont get in lockstep with the bullshit talking points here on the AMT, people think you're GOP or a Trumper lol
2. You know what happens when everyone agrees about a topic? They stop discussing it because there's nothing to discuss. You're regularly the one who comes on here and reminds people how delusional you find them to be. You keep the conversation you'd like to end alive. More irony.
3. Cable news IS divisive toxic bullshit. I assume that's where you got the notion that your short list of topics are the only Democratic platform points since 2015.
4. If you come here to shit on everyone and only point out what they're not, people won't care what you are (GOP, Trumper, Democrat, rhino), and they certainly won't care what you have to say.
Take it or leave it, but how you're making your points is not conducive to them being accepted. I won't pretend I feel that I've had much more luck, but I work extremely hard to not be a dick. And I won't ever regret that.Your boos mean nothing to me, for I have seen what makes you cheer0 -

Yep. Great can be the enemy of good. We probably don't have a great candidate but the Dems threaten to tarnish the hell out of any of their own good ones. I wish I was a conservative. I'd love watching the Dems destroy their eventual candidate this way while my immoral, perververted, lying, racist shyster breezes through the 2020 election unscathed by his party.mrussel1 said:

            Biden is a prime example of the problem democrats face going forward. The weaponizing of outrage for everything over the past several years will eat the party alive within. Ol Joe probably has the best chance against Trump and the GOP doesn't even need to lift a finger to have him dismissed.

            They better formulate some plan to work against Trumpito...petty differences about stupid shit brought on by other candidates is LAME.
You know, you're allowed to work together as a team. Seems crazy, right?
You're may actually need a team to repair the damage this puke has rendered on the Republic. Rebuilding the State Department is a good place to start.Bristow 05132010 to Amsterdam 2 061320180 -
