    huju: And which Democrat had the smarts, if any? Certainly not freshman Senator Obama, whose only previous experience was as a “community organizer”. Or Clinton, whose primary experience was as a philanderer and predator. Or Carter the peanut farmer.

    Another common geder (even more common than the above), especially among the older generation of prewar Europe and those who continued their hashkafos, is that unrelated men and women never call each other by their first name.

    In fact, I’ve seen many who won’t even call their spouse by their first name when they’re among unrelated family members. The way I’ve heard husbands calling their wives when around others was “Herr Nur”.

    The Republicans in general care far more for the poor than the Democrats ever have. Whereas the Republicans seek to enrich the poor by creating opportunities, the Democrats enact policies to keep the poor poor, in order to force them into government hand-outs they control with which they hope to buy their votes with.

    I’m speaking on a national level (including Congress). On the state level their may be a very small number of decent electeds from the party, even though offhand I can’t point to any. On the local level, I know, there’s still some good men left.

    Rush, above all else, was a heavy weight (no pun intended) intellectual. That’s what his far-left detractors hated most, causing them to deny the truth. The left could never produce a counter-weight to Rush. Their only tool left was ad hominems utilizing fabrications and falsehoods, which are trademarks of the left.

    In Boro Park there’s two Chase Bank branches within feet of each other — a small city block from one another. Historically one originally was a Chemical Bank branch while the other originally was a branch of Manafacturer Hanover Trust, which was later acquired by Chemical. Then Chemical purchased Chase Manhattan Bank and assumed its name, before buying J.P. Morgan to become J.P. Morgan Chase. But all that merging occurred decades ago and yet there still there next to each other.

    Harris is more impeachable than Trump was.

    Impeachment is merely a political process. If half the House plus one member agree to impeach an official because that official has a hair color they don’t like, they can legally impeach him.

    Democrats have turned the impeachment process into a farce and a joke. They should expect to reap what they sowed when Democrats in the White House are easily impeached.

    “We had the javits center, the comfort, and even Shor Yoshuv”

    None of these were available on March 25 when Cuomo announced the poilcy

    Cuomo failed to change his murderous nursing home policy immediately after those extra hospital beds became available (thanks to the Trump Administration.)

    Ghadora: So far Cuomo acknowledged 15,000 victims died in New York nursing homes. And that count excludes victims that died after being transferred from the nursing home to a hospital. That’ll likely more than double the count, as must of Cuomo’s victims died in a hospital.

    So, yes, tens of thousands is an accurate description of the number of Cuomo’s victims. And this count isn’t even including Cuomo’s victims who weren’t in nursing homes but died due to Cuomo’s gross mismanagement of the pandemic. New York and New Jersey have the two highest death ratio from covid-19 of all US states.

    Cuomo is a genocidal maniac. He should be put in the dock and tried for genocide. Just seeing him in an orange jumpsuit and in chains will do a tiny level of justice to the tens of thousands of Cuomo’s victims who are no longer alive.

    The public schools of the 1930s didn’t teach the kefira, nivul peh, giliuy aroyos and worse (not to mention retzicha) that virtually every pubic school today includes in their curriculum.

    And then without the above, as Avram pointed out, we lost so many neshomos back in those decades. The ones we’re talking here are the few survivors out of the many lost.
