America's eminently mockable Transportation Secretary, Pete Buttigieg, went on national TV on Tuesday to mock Americans who find that electric cars don't suit their transportation needs. "Sometimes, when these debates happen," the failed former mayor of South Bend, Ind. told Fox News, "I feel like it's the early 2000s and I'm talking to some people who think that we can just have landline phones forever."
Spoiler: Nobody was saying that in the early 2000s. Even before the iPhone came out in 2007 and changed phones forever, Americans were snapping up Nokias and Blackberries and wondering if we still needed our landlines at all. As early as 2005, 69%

Up yours, Transportation Secretary. Next January you'll be out of a job.

The boy is being groomed for higher office. He already lies and dodges well. He will emerge as the can-do guy on the Baltimore Bridge recovery. Right place at the right time.

Remember when the Buttster was billed as the Dem's rising star? Ha ha ha. Turns out he's a dud and now the object of derision. It will be interesting to see if and where he gets employed after the Biden kakistocracy exits.

Everything about him is a punch line to a bad joke. Its bad enough that the department secretaries are all incompetent boobs who are appointed as a political payoff or pandering to a sub group. Thats always been true.
I still have my landline and dont want your electronic leash. I'm not important enough to need instant communications around the clock. Few people are. I also dont like a gps tracker on me and an open mike on me at all times. Sometimes I like to hide and sometimes I like my conversations private.

Fta “ We've been working to make sure that advantage comes back on American soil." . Actually, Tesla , the American company, had the worldwide advantage years. Perhaps it is gov actions that pushed the advantage elsewhere.

My husband and I do not have smartphones. Don't want one. I have never taken a selfie or looked at my phone while having dinner out or needed to text someone during a meeting. Don't need one. My flip phone is for a quick text to my husband or son and for emergencies. I hate talking on the phone so I only call when it is necessary, like for a doctor's appointment. I realize that billions of people love their phone and would commit suicide if it wasn't functioning. Me, not so much. But it is an option, a choice, high end or merely functional for my needs. My choice not the government's. It works for us just like our gas powered car does. An EV is not a better choice. We all can list 50 reasons why that is so. Maybe someday but not now. It is not up to the government to push this crap on us and frankly, Pete, shove it. America this is DEI in action. This administration is full of them. FJB PS Pete. Cell phones do not work everywhere. Leave people alone.

I guess that makes us even. I think Booty Judge is an idiot.
I know he is a sick individual who thinks having sex with a man's anal orifice is the way it's supposed to be done.
Pitcher or catcher it is still sick.

Being called an idiot by a pervert like Buttguy is a compliment.
At least I know a rear end is used for pooping.

I worked in telecommunications for 35 years. Landlines were one of the industry's greatest achievements. 99.99% reliable. If the power went out, they still worked. If your phone was made by Western Electric, a car could run over it and it would still work. EVs are not in the same league wrt quality.
