Quote from: Cassia on May 14, 2024, 06:42:41 PMThe Enemy Below....free on YTI found it on Utube and watched The Enemy Below last night. I vaguely remember seeing it back in the 50s at the theater. Hunt for Red October has got to be somewhere on my top 5 favorite films. I own it, and can't say how many times I've watched it. It is a well crafted story with an unparalleled cast.
Thrilling sea chase. Curd Jürgens and Mitchum, both excellent. Always liked Red Oct. I can tell they looked to this classic for inspiration.
Quote from: Hydra009 on Today at 12:35:57 PMThanks Obama: 17% of Americans mistakenly believe Biden ended Roe VS Wade abortion rightsOther than pay lip service to protecting women's rights, the Democrats have done little to protect a woman's right to choose. But given our polarized leadership, it's doubtful they could have. This is a the work of the Supreme Court, and I'm guessing Democrats are happy to have it out of their hands. Although, leaving it to the court system appears to be biting them in the ass. So it's back to dark alleys and coat hangers, probably for a long time.
Quote from: ferdmonger on May 11, 2024, 08:36:43 PMI'm having trouble wrapping my head around the fact that entire states are actually going to vote for Donald Trump for president. What the actual fuck.Yes, from the New York Times, the information I'm getting looks like it's going to be Trump for another four years, and I'm curious what kinds of shenanigans he's got in mind to get another four after that. I don't believe a conviction for any crime is going to affect his chances.
QuoteTrump supporters and voters with less education were most likely to attribute responsibility for abortion bans to Mr. Biden*draws Venn Diagram consisting entirely of a single circle*
Quotebut the misperception existed across demographic groups. Twelve percent of Democrats hold Mr. Biden responsibleYikes. The Dems obviously need to improve their messaging before the election. Large numbers of asleep-at-the-wheel voters may be fine for the Republicans - essential, even - but that's intolerable for the Dems.
