Why don't Pelosi focus on Barack Obama who look sick, underweight ,like a person with TB. He looks like an old 80-year old man. The president Trump is not overweight. Barack Obama is underweight. That is why he looks too old of his age. That's how I see him.

Well, the current president is in fact overweight, regardless of how you feel about it.
And as Obama is no longer our president, and has not announced he is taken an unproven and possibly dangerous drug (for some) then I can't imagine why anyone would focus on him at all.

Paul,
This is not as simple as your post pretends. In the Old Testament the ban on charging interest is specific to the poor. You can charge interest to foreigners, and also to the rich for productive loans. Also Jesus specifically tells stories about earning interest on money.

Thank you for sharing this informative article.
I have to admit my meme is provocative, as many posts are on OPP.
But your response is the only one (so far) that is level-headed and contains references, which I appreciate.
I also can't imagine anyone much poorer than a student who has struggled through school only to find there are no jobs. So maybe the gist of the meme is still there.

My apologies. He is 4 pounds shy of being just plain obese.

For Pelosi to call a 6-foot, 3-inch tall man who weighs 236 pounds morbidly obese shows how morbidly stupid she is. Trump is just a bit overweight and can always lose a few pounds if he wants to....but you can't fix stupid.
If in fact the president is 6’3” and 236 pounds he is over weight with a BMI between 29 and 30. Based on the chart at the link below he is 4 pounds shy of a BMI of 30, which would make him morbidly obese in health science terms.

That’s pretty much a non proven statistic. Most voter fraud isn’t prosecuted. It’s hard and expensive to prove. I do know ballot harvesting should never be allowed and voting in person, with voter I.D. should make most confident in the election results.
You are speculating, and with no basis.
If you know most voter fraud is not prosecuted then you must know about the amount of voter fraud there is.
If you have evidence of this please share it with us all.

The amount of voter fraud is practically non-existent, from a statistical POV.
The right has consistently rn around screaming about a voter ID problem that does not exist.

Well, I didn’t really expect you to respond with facts, so we’re kind of both in the same position.

It is safe as far as the virus is concerned. It is very much open to fraud and intimidation. I am sure you won't get it. I hate any voting by mail except for the military, Americans over seas, elderly and handicapped. Good Lord, if you can stand in lines for Toilet Paper you should be willing to stand in line to do something as important as vote.
It seems that in the 3 states that distribute ballots by mail, most voters return them to a physical location.
And of the ones that returned by mail, a big chunk took them to the post office. This seems safe to me.

I'm having a hard time, considering these are accepted as safe, understanding why folks think voting by mail is not safe. Also take into account some states, including Oregon, have been vote by mail for a long time. Even the U.S. military has vote by mail.
