I'm not impressed with the "shoe stuck in the pedal" story. I've seen no report that Biden said this to reporters at the scene. It seems likely that the White House Spin Control Desk issued that story.
When an Aunt and Uncle retired to Florida, I was surprised at the number of adult size tricycles. The Dems could have "disguised" that with a briefcase or a radio unit, but I did enjoy the well executed face plant.
If you seriously think Matt Bracken and I are 180° out from each other, I humbly submit that you haven't been paying close attention to at least one of us.
But humor me: Tell what it is you think I am "wrong" about.
Cellphone video of the face-plant clearly shows his right foot getting caught up the in the pedal's 'toe clip' cage was the cause. Why his handlers had him riding a bike with 'toe clips' is beyond me. I'm nowhere near Biden's age and I've had a few hiccups when I used those for competitive cycling. https://www.zerohedge.com/political/watch-biden-bails-bike
Nope. His right foot was in the toe clip. Which is teats on a bull.
The cause of his fall was dementia and decreased basic physical ability to maintain his balance secondary to that neurological decline, as his left foot was already on the ground, when he leaned towards the side where he had no foot to support him, and ate shit.
The toe clip was ancillary. People with normal functional physical capabilities can lean on one leg, and insert or extract their foot from a toe clip without having an asphalt luncheon.

Is Russia in charge in Ukraine? Are they conducting business as usual with 90% of the world? How depleted is their military since the end of February? How feared is their combat ability?
Russia is eating a shit sandwich every day this drags on. Even if they win conventionally, they still lose strategically. There is no describable scenario where Russia "wins". None. It's just differing degrees of shit sandwich.
You'd think in this country, after Vietnam and Afghanistan, one wouldn't have to explain the limits of military power to people, but the stupidity in this country among the general population is a bottomless abyss.
Not counting the news outlets or websites along the full range of accuracy and veracity, I follow multiple actual individuals' handwritten blogs. (Bot news aggregators don't thrill me.) Looking them over, many are current serving or former military and a couple are some variation of high-speed low-drag elite forces ninjas. Or just funny as all. Because life without humor is just despair. So in other words, the same folks I trusted in the military not to wet the bed, sh*t themselves, or otherwise run around like headless Nancys, are the same folks I trust on the interwebz, for demonstrating pretty much the same trustworthiness and circumspectly responsible behavior. Color me shocked.
Comments are fully moderated, due to idiots and trolls. Grown up discussion here will appear just as soon as I have the time to push it through. ANONYMOUS UNSIGNED COMMENTS WILL BE AUTO-DELETED WITHOUT MERCY, and the url added to the spam filter, or mercilessly mocked at the bloghost's sole discretion. If you're too chickensh*t to come up with an alias for online purposes, you're not tall enough for this blog. Pick a name, and stick with it, and you're good. Get cute, and you're wasting your time and my electrons, and your masterpiece will never see the light of day. No warning shots will be fired. If you can't maintain decorum and polite behavior, I won't toy with you, I'll squash you. If one of your comments disappears, YOU f**ked up. If all of them do, it's time for you to go. Disagree with the points made, on the merits, and you're good. Go after me personally, or other commenters, and your comment will never see daylight here. My tolerance for skirting the line is at absolute zero, and will remain there. Don't f**k up.

You need to go read Brackens latest. Can't stand him either but he's right about Ukraine. You are not.

It was easily the most painfully stupid fail I've seen in a *long* time.

As expected: >crickets< in reply.
