Reply to comment by Avalon-1 in Found at a McDonald’s in Anchorage Alaska. Conservatives are mad at Our Senator Lisa Murkowski (R). by Brilliant_Surprise54
When we disagree on facts I don’t think there’s productive conversation to be had. My personal recollection of the Brooks Brothers Riot and that of every account of it I’ve found in the past couple minutes searching to refresh my memory indicates the only impact was that a few bureaucrats and the media was kept out of where the ballot counters were working. Unless you distrust what the ballot counters were doing, the election remained intact.
Instead of attacking individuals, maybe it’d be more productive to argue for the dismantling of the electoral college.

The Brooks Brothers Riot actually stole an election, but it was more a Romney/McCain style steal where they could keep a mask of "decorum".
and "integrity" amounts to "I'm as cruel as Trump/Bush/Cheney but more polite about it." and no amount of "joe Biden's smile is wholesome presidential chungus!" changes that.
And as for Liz Cheney, she is not someone to worship. She wanted to keep forever wars going on, and was a fan of torture, and voted far more in line with Trump than Murkowski. They want the same things as Trump, just in a more polite package.

And she’s voted with Biden 73% of the time. She was one of only two Republican senators who voted with Obama more than 70% of the time across his presidency.
She’s grown increasingly moderate over the past ten years and consensus building is absolutely what we need in this country right now. She, along with Congresswoman Cheney stood up against the party line for the insurrection on Jan 6 (the events of which were a far cry from those of the Brooks Brothers Riot which you compared them to in another comment). That in itself may be a terminal decision for their political careers. It’s integrity.
You don’t have to like her politics or her voting record. But as far as the GOP goes she’s one of the last ones sticking to her guns.

So, Typical GOP, just keeping the Quiet Part Quiet. Much like John "I hate the gooks!" McCain and Mitt "47% don't matter!" Romney.

With trump or with her affiliated Political Group and the other 30% is when that group went a little whacko and she stayed true to her constituents and views.

Her voting Record. It's like John McCain's, in that they both talk big about "muh democracy/decorum!" but fall in line when it comes to action.

she voted with Trump over 70% of the time. Actions speak louder than words, and was more than happy to pal along with Bush/Cheney even though they ran a successful Jan 6 (Brooks brothers riot).
But hey, she talk about "muh decorum/democracy!" so all is forgiven.

And she’s voted more with Biden during his presidency and Obama during his presidency than she voted with Trump. And she’s known as one the of the most moderate Senators currently in office, which we desperately need right now.

And she doesn’t claim a rigged election or claim hoaxes. And sees The insurrection for what it actually was. She real not some follower. I’m not a right wing by any means nor left but this type of down to earth honesty is why she earns my vote

Even though that would be a meaningfully important distinction in today’s GOP, I don’t think I agree.
Why do you think she’s the same as Trump, just polite?

The only difference between her and trump is that she's polite.

How you know it was conservatives that posted it? Could have been independents. Could be some democrat trickery. Could have been you!

Reply to comment by tina_the_fat_llama in Harley-Davidson Model 1, the first motorcycle ever produced by the motorcycle company. by swizchaksih74
It was a trademark application, not a patent application; Harley-Davidson claimed that the sound made by their engines was distinctive enough to act as a "source identifier" to consumers.
A bunch of other manufacturers filed oppositions to the filing, basically pointing out "Hey, we also make large-displacement, common-crankpin 45-degree engines and guess what - they sound just like yours."
H-D gave up after 6 years and some litigation, but they probably wouldn't have been successful anyway - you can't trademark *functional* aspects of a design, and the "Harley" sound just comes from the mechanical characteristics of the engine.
