That's not what would happen. They're gonna "Weekend at Bernies" him as long as possible.

The club itself probably is. The restaurant specifically, maybe, maybe not. I've been to a bunch of yacht clubs over the years and the restaurant doesn't always break even. Part of the appeal is having the exclusive spot. If members need to subsidize it, they're often OK with that.

No shit. He's stringing you along, just like Putin is. He knows there's no point in making a deal so he's waiting for you to notice the next shiny thing.

Can't wait for the Satanists to insist on equal representation. It's only happened every time. But then the politicians doing this instead of something useful will just campaign off that too.

He's got a narrow window to actually accomplish something. We can't have another leader who thinks announcing something is the same as doing it.

I'd we let this get bogged down in process and consultations it's doomed.

I too think in absolutes. Either you're a Christian or a devil worshipper.

Either you're with us, or you're with the terrorists.

Wow, life got much easier when I eliminated nuance.

Sure, but I don't think telling them so is a productive avenue for conversation.

Nothing automatically makes someone a good role model obviously, but going through a program like Judo teaches you a lot of things like being humble.

I'd actually contrast that to supposedly softer martial arts like aikido where you don't actually train with resistance and therefore don't get that humbling effect that I was talking about.

I've had the same experience. Or if you do hear about it, it's reluctant and only in relation to how it affects women.

I'm fine with women having their own advocacy group, I don't think they're equipped to take on men too.

It's an attempt to set it up to compete with pride for June.

That sounds very paranoid.

there is no argument that men's health isn't important

Read the comments in this very thread.

It's inevitable though, there are so many issues and only twelve months.
