  1. Maybe it's just my area then but I don't see kids treated that way :shrug:
  2. Impeachment doesn't need to "work" to be a process that lays out the treason, bribery, and high crimes & misdemeanors of our current president well into the election; not to mention force vulnerable senators to impale themselves defending him up to and including Moscow Mitch. The House won't even get a chance to finish their proceedings before the Senate will be bombarded with questions and the real problem for trump, the thing that will drive him the most insane, is that it will be a source of daily news.
  3. Maybe, but why even bother spending the effort to give him the benefit of the doubt? Even this would never be a single letter exhibit in the gallery of evidence that Donald Trump is "insensitive." We'll all forget by tomorrow either way.
  4. Helicopter parents aren't so much around anymore, that was more of a gen X thing.
  5. Seems odd to me how a rifle that's, "no different than any other," keeps being used over and over again to kill multiple random people in broad daylight. It is frankly laughable to suggest that it's a coincidence.
  6. I had to stop before that happened and it still almost didn't work. Inverted three's indeed.
  7. I think his best defense was, "if a girl has a sexual encounter she's too young to consent to then winds up pregnant either her rapist should be allowed to force her to carry to term or 14 year olds actually CAN consent QED the supreme court said so."
  8. I think the winners are going to be Warren and Booker. Then on to the D3mocratic D3bate!
  9. You're gonna need a ladder for how far my post went over your head.
  10. I'm convinced Johnson wants to preside over the ashes and actually wants a no deal brexit with no back stop.
  11. Transportation is a force multiplier. It's in our own best interest to make it work for as many people as we can. We can make it free to use and the benefits would be immense. I mean, payment for the roads to be built and their upkeep ain't free but their use sure is. Paid with tax money. Can't say we can't do it because we already are.
  12. There's a valid argument that the House's hand is strengthened during impeachment and although that seems obvious; less obvious is that Congress has a right to this stuff anyway, without official impeachment proceedings actively underway, and setting a precedent that impeachment proceedings are necessary to begin oversight would be bad. As much as I'd like Pelosi to lead on this, she's protecting her majority. That's secondary to me but I get it. I think she has it backwards but thankfully she's not the only leader in the House. Nadler clearly wants to begin impeachment and is only allowing himself to be constrained by the full House. It would appear he has a majority in his committee to vote for it as well. It would probably be good politics to limit the public proceedings to the judiciary committee for the time being.
  13. It's a good thing libertarians are such hardened targets their divisive nature could never be the result of Russian propaganda.
