Do you admit that it’s an imperfect recipe? Why do you need additions?
August 12, 2019 6:35 pm at 6:35 pm in reply to: Tuna soup is delicious, and if you refuse to try it, you’re a coward. #1773052chiefshmerelParticipantWhat’s the recipe?
chiefshmerelParticipantThey lean against whoever is in power. Are they anarchists?

Cory Booker, I intend on going to his August 7 rally in Philadelphia.chiefshmerelParticipantOnly if it’s repealed. People spent decades paying in.
chiefshmerelParticipantIs that a question?
April 3, 2019 10:46 pm at 10:46 pm in reply to: Donald Trump should not be the President of the United States #1708961chiefshmerelParticipantHey, Joseph. Yes, you.
This country was founded on the basis of not having a king. Having Donald Trump as king would defeat the purpose of the US of A.
Hope you enjoyed the history lesson.
chiefshmerelParticipantI read the entire Torah.
There was no commandment of ‘thou shalt not be liberal’.
chiefshmerelParticipantAviK, I was not demoted. Smerel is someone else.
November 4, 2018 8:19 pm at 8:19 pm in reply to: anti vaxxers are wreaking havoc around the world #1616757chiefshmerelParticipantLeibidik Yankel, vaccines don’t have a 100% effective rate. I wouldn’t care about anti-vaxxers if they did.
But there’s something called herd immunity, which means that at least 95% of the population needs to be vaccinated for a disease to be eradicated.
I remember getting the flu shot last year and still getting the flu. That’s because it doesn’t work all the time. Yet I got it again this year because I’m not stupid. I know that just because it doesn’t work once doesn’t mean they don’t work.
The only people who should not be vaccinated are babies that are too young and people for whom it poses health risks. If you use Judaism for a “religious exemption”, you are turning it into a cult. Venishmartem Me’od Lenafshosechem.
chiefshmerelParticipantGrow up?!
It’s not anti-Semitic to criticize Soros. It is anti-Semitic to use money ads against a Jewish candidate, as Jews supposedly control the wealth.
“Globalist” has for a long time been a white nationalist code for Jew. When David Duke complains about globalists ruining this country, he means Jews.
A few days ago, Kevin McCarthy, the House Majority Leader, tweeted that we “cannot allow Soros, Steyer, and Bloomberg to buy the election.”
After widespread criticism, he’s deleted the tweet.
I don’t know what was going on in his mind. You can call it a coincidence, you might be right.But as I said before, using ads with money against Jewish candidates is generally anti-Semitic.
chiefshmerelParticipantIt’s not censorship. Censorship is from the government.
Apple, Twitter, etc. are private companies and don’t need to host him against their wishes.chiefshmerelParticipantBecause no one is accusing Kennedy or Ellison of doing it to them.
Remember when Franken was forced by his own party to resign?
October 3, 2018 9:53 pm at 9:53 pm in reply to: President Donald Trump, Oheiv Yisroel Par Excellence #1598253chiefshmerelParticipantAnd then they expect a peace plan.
Peace will not come without concessions!
chiefshmerelParticipantSoldiers are required to have a high school diploma.
chiefshmerelParticipantMeno:
1. If your analogy was the case, nothing would be worth money.
2. Actually, this guy thought he would lose money. But once the minimum wage went up, businesses started paying their workers more, and the workers could finally afford an occasional night out. They went to this guy’s restaurant, and he made more money and opened another five, all with new workers.Bottom line is, a $15 minimum wage works for everyone.
chiefshmerelParticipantA $15 dollar minimum wage drives up the economy.
Poor people need more money, and when they get it, they’re not saving it for a yacht. It goes back into circulation, and more money gets spent. The money goes right back to the employer from many people, and they can afford to pay their workers.
Seattle has a $14 minimum wage. Some guy had a restaurant. When they passed a bill for the $15 minimum wage, he thought he would lose money. Turns out he opened another five.
When you share the wealth, it’s good for everyone.
July 26, 2018 8:48 pm at 8:48 pm in reply to: Why are Liberals outraged that Trump acted like Obama #1565772chiefshmerelParticipant@coffeeaddict, He wasn’t married. His father was also Barack Obama.
chiefshmerelParticipantThe Fighting Sefardi is correct, if you change around Laurel and Yanny. It’s Yanny, period!
April 29, 2018 9:08 pm at 9:08 pm in reply to: President Donald Trump, Oheiv Yisroel Par Excellence #1513197chiefshmerelParticipantOn April 22, Trump tweeted:
“Sleepy Eyes Chuck Todd of Fake News NBC just stated that we have given up so much in our negotiations with North Korea, and they have given up nothing. Wow, we haven’t given up anything & they have agreed to denuclearization (so great for World), site closure, & no more testing!”.“Sleepy eyes” is an anti-Semitic term. Chuck Todd is Jewish. Such an oheiv yisrael…
chiefshmerelParticipantHurricane Harvey never happened, it just was a screen prop to film a movie about climate change.
April 11, 2018 10:48 pm at 10:48 pm in reply to: Can a “Kosher” Restaurant Advertise it also is “Halal” #1505479chiefshmerelParticipantPeople seem to have misunderstood what I wrote earlier. If a kosher restaurant is willing to pay for Muslim supervision, I don’t see any reason that they shouldn’t advertise that they are halal, as well as kosher. I’m not so familiar with the laws of halal, but assuming no part of halal contradicts kosher, they can very well serve both Jewish and Muslim clients.
chiefshmerelParticipantDid anyone read what I wrote before (https://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/climate-change/#post-1503761)? What was written after it doesn’t stand if you consider it.
chiefshmerelParticipantJoseph, let me give you an analogy.
Suppose you go to a doctor, and he tells you that you need to fix your diet. You decide to seek a second opinion, so you go to another doctor. He tells you the same thing. You go to doctor after doctor, until the 98th doctor tells you, “These doctors are in the pockets of the health food companies, no need to change your diet, just eat what you want!”
Who will you trust?chiefshmerelParticipantIt’s not stealing. But it’s not the most honest thing to do.
April 8, 2018 9:40 pm at 9:40 pm in reply to: Sick and tired of spoiled cholov yisroel milk #1503762chiefshmerelParticipantHow did this thread get reawakened from 2010?
chiefshmerelParticipantWhen Hashem took Adam through the world, he showed him everything, and then told him to take good care of it, not to destroy it. This shows that humans have the capability to destroy something, and should do their best to preserve the environment. (As heard from R’ Mordechai Becher)
Hence, the natural selection should be B.April 8, 2018 9:32 pm at 9:32 pm in reply to: Is it reasonable to tell a 21 yr old boy to date a 24 yr old girl !!!!!! #1503759chiefshmerelParticipantThere’s nothing wrong with suggesting it. There’s something wrong with telling him to date her.
April 8, 2018 1:24 pm at 1:24 pm in reply to: Left-Wing Extremist Shooting Up YouTube Headquarters #1503534chiefshmerelParticipantNecause it wasn’t a left-wing shooting. This woman was a left-wing person. But she did not have a political motive.
She shot up the place because they removed some of her videos, and put age restrictions on them. This had nothing to do with politics.April 8, 2018 1:58 am at 1:58 am in reply to: Sick and tired of spoiled cholov yisroel milk #1503351chiefshmerelParticipantSo drink chalav stam.
April 5, 2018 11:44 am at 11:44 am in reply to: Amazon is great – they’ve created tens of thousands of jobs!!!!!!!! #1503196chiefshmerelParticipantIf it’s to big to fail, it’s too big to exist. Amazon is too big to fail. If it fails, the economy comes down with it. It needs to be downsized.
April 4, 2018 8:47 pm at 8:47 pm in reply to: Can a “Kosher” Restaurant Advertise it also is “Halal” #1502958chiefshmerelParticipantWhat I meant is that if a kosher restaurant meets the laws of halal, there is no reason they shouldn’t advertise for it and make more money through Muslim customers.
April 4, 2018 12:45 pm at 12:45 pm in reply to: Can a “Kosher” Restaurant Advertise it also is “Halal” #1502863chiefshmerelParticipantOK, so a Muslim won’t trust them. But as long as teh restaurant keeps the halal rules, there is no reason it shouldn’t advertise as halal and have Muslim clientele.
April 4, 2018 8:45 am at 8:45 am in reply to: Amazon is great – they’ve created tens of thousands of jobs!!!!!!!! #1502721chiefshmerelParticipantAmazon has gotten too big. If it went under, 566,000 employees would lose their job. It would very likely lead to an economic recession.
chiefshmerelParticipant@yehudayona, my mistake. I was thinking about Jones as I read it, and he came to mind first.
And by the way, there’s a difference between Democratic Socialism and democratic socialism. I’m a democratic socialist, although I am a registered Democrat.
chiefshmerelParticipant@samklein30, It’s a very liberal district. Jones has pretty much no chance of winning the general election.
chiefshmerelParticipantWhy not?
chiefshmerelParticipant@Milhouse, That’s right, no one bothered running. What’s sickening is that 20,339 people voted for Jones. They could have not voted. They could have written someone in. But they voted for a neo-Nazi, white supremacist, Holocaust denier. That is shameful.
@AviK, he is not a member of Democratic Socialists of America. I am. There is no anti-Semitism, racism, or white supremacy in the organization.
What he is a member of is the National Socialist Movement. He ran for mayor of Milwaukee on the National Socialist White People’s Party (which has been outlawed since, along with the American Nazi Party) in 1976.
But Jones is not a Socialist. He’s a far-right extremist. The Nazi Party, which in full is the National Socialist German Workers’ Party, was not Socialist either. They were far-right extremists. They called themselves Socialist, although they were not. (North Korea calls itself the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea. It is none of those things. If everything was the way it was called, North Korea would be a free country. The same applies with the Islamic Republic of Iran.)chiefshmerelParticipantI agree with Midwest2. Had I been living in the 1950s, I would probably be mixed between the two parties.
As Eisenhower once said, “Should any political party attempt to abolish social security, unemployment, insurance, and eliminate labor laws and farm programs, you would not hear of that party again in our political history. There is a tiny splinter group, of course, that believes you can do these things. Their number is negligible, and they are stupid.”
Seeing what’s going on in Washington these days, it seems his prediction is coming true.
chiefshmerelParticipantHealth, do you realize how little sense you make?
chiefshmerelParticipantHealth:
First of all, the House Intelligence committee is run by Repugs.
Second of all, there are new bombshells coming weekly.
And third of all, if they didn’t interview 100+ witnesses that they were supposed to, how can you say it’s a fair investigation?!chiefshmerelParticipantThey generally don’t name things after people who are still alive.
chiefshmerelParticipantJoseph, in English, that’s a majority. She got more votes than any other candidate.
RebYidd23, many people voted for a third party candidate. I remember Election Night, when Evan McMullin had a chance of winning Illinois. Stein got 1.2 million votes, and Johnson got about 3 million. So no, she won the popular vote.chiefshmerelParticipant@RebYidd23, they did. There’s a reason that she won the popular vote by 3 million.
March 14, 2018 2:41 pm at 2:41 pm in reply to: Should Donald Trump be Crowned King of the United States? #1489597chiefshmerelParticipant@AviK, I know. But you also wrote that Lincoln died. That gives the implication that their popularity had something to do with their death. The uninformed would assume that FDR was killed.
March 14, 2018 2:41 pm at 2:41 pm in reply to: MAILBAG: Reader Upset With YWN Story About Hillary Clinton Falling #1489596chiefshmerelParticipantI’m not a fan of Clinton. But she doesn’t fall so often, and if it happened two times on one staircase, either she was tired, ill, or the problem was the staircase.
March 14, 2018 2:40 pm at 2:40 pm in reply to: Should Donald Trump be Crowned King of the United States? #1489590chiefshmerelParticipant@Milhouse, just because Faux News doesn’t report it doesn’t mean it’s false. And it’s not like it’s even being done undercover. I will gladly explain each one in detail, if you’re interested.
chiefshmerelParticipantTillerson calls Trump a moron, and is not fired. Tillerson says something against Russia, and is fired. Putin is clearly pulling the strings.
March 13, 2018 10:10 pm at 10:10 pm in reply to: Should Donald Trump be Crowned King of the United States? #1488973chiefshmerelParticipantJoseph, why are you so anxious to live in a dictatorship? I’ll gladly pay for your one way ticket to Russia.
AviK, FDR died naturally, not killed.
And there’s no shortage of what to impeach over. The Constitution says “high crimes and misdeameanors”. Congress can decide what a misdemeanor is, which means that they can be impeached for blowing their nose on the wrong side of the street.
Anyway, there’s no shortage. From refusing to implement Russian sanctions, to signing executive orders against religious liberty, to accepting money from foreign governments by making foreign dignitaries stay in Trump Hotel rather than Blair House, to “very fine people”, to the comments against Haiti, to obstruction of justice, to Flynn’s violation of the Logan Act, to firing Comey once he was about to potentially be exposed,to refusing to divest from his businesses, to undermining freedom of the press, and much more which is too much to list right now.March 11, 2018 7:35 pm at 7:35 pm in reply to: President Donald Trump, Oheiv Yisroel Par Excellence #1486595chiefshmerelParticipant@Health, the neo-Nazis came first. The entire rally was organized by Richard Spencer (if you don’t know who that is, there’s nothing to talk about).
And you misunderstood what me and my fellow commenters were saying. Not everyone at that rally were neo-Nazis. But someone who demonstrates with them, while s/he might not be a neo-Nazi, is not a fine person at all.
And @MTAB is absolutely right. It’s increasingly common to have anti-Semites supporting the state of Israel. Richard Spencer, for example, openly supports Israel. There are two reasons that that can happen:
1. Many of these white supremacists believe that Jews should be in their own land, quarantined away from the world.
2. It says in the Bible that the redeemer will come once all the Jews live in the land of Israel.So no, it’s actually not so uncommon to find an anti-Semitic supporter of Israel.
