The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

The way they were hustling him in and out of the Senate... as well as the way the press was bombarding him with shouted questions... only reinforced in my mind how both the right and the left are now using him as a prop for their own agendas.

I think the guy checked out back in June and the rest of the country needs to let him go.

...... and this is apart from the obvious poetic justice involved in Mitch being ensnared in multiple schemes to turn death or illness to political advantage- as he himself did with two Supreme Court nominations.

It's tragic. It's cruel.

But God still seems to have a sense of humor in all of this nonsense.
