Every time this subject comes up, I find myself with two questions.

Does praying help the team win more games and/or suffer fewer injuries? If not, what's the point?

When young, I listened to the rock stations. Music changed. I found country stations, and enjoyed them. They disappeared and/or the music changed.

I stopped listening to the radio, and just put...

Is their specific job not to protect the president?

I expect he'll be taken to court if and when they have an extremely strong case. More likely, a lot of those who did his bidding will end up in jail and he will not.

I believe the GOP began a change under Reagan. Gingrich gave that change a boost. The Tea party changed it farther. Now it is what it is.

True, but he did nothing in regards to distributing it. Meanwhile he told people to drink bleach.

Agreed!

I think putting a justice on the court SHOULD need more than a simple majority, and more than just votes of one party.

With luck, they will end up in jail for those things for which they sought, but did not get, those pardons.

Did any of them mention any of those things?

A short while ago, some I saw a roving reporter at the NRA event. That reporter tried to find members who could recite the entire single sentence that makes up the 2nd amendment. It proved difficult....

One underlying question here is how many who NEED to learn this stuff will.

How does FOX respond to her testimony. I saw a brief clip of some of their hosts looking a bit puzzled as to what to...

He probably skates, but I'd not bet on it.

I don't share his optimism, although I do realize a lot of s**t can hit the fan between now and November's election.

Among that s**t' is how he raised money under false pretenses. That will piss...

I'd like to know why Flynn took the 5th on believing in the peaceful transfer of power.

I can't read minds, but there is the occasional person who simply decides to do the right thing, even if it costs. Vinman,(? spelling) testified at great personal peril.

That's hard to predict. We don't know what suggestions this committee will make and/or whether any will become law.

So, no consequences? Yet, a car dealer misrepresents a car, he can do time?

Judging from the long post above, the tariffs were a good thing?

Maybe they just can't list any?

He tried to disband NATO

He banned Muslims.

He separated families he couldn't put back together

He tried, and almost succeeded, in repealing the ACA without having anything to replace it...

Let me try this again.

Mom and Dad go away for a weekend. They leave their 16 year old son home. Before they leave, they have a conversation with the son: "Dave down the street is having a party...

FOX is not truthful, but it's hard to complain about them and believe the court nominees were any more honest.

I'll ask here, as I did elsewhere, would you accept this much lying from your...

Let's change the context a bit.

Those of you with children: what would be your standard for them giving you honest answers? Do you teach them lying if absolutely okay?

How about your spouse:...

How, exactly, is a member of the House to be effective if bills must also pass the senate, and that's a problem these days?

We drilled (?) a well in our back yard. We used the tower113945 to support a large pulley. We jacked up the drive wheel of a '51 Plymouth.

We'd 'snug' the line on the wheel, and the car would lift...

It's really kind of amazing when you stop to think. A good number of voters could not vote for Hillary because of Benghazi, which the GOP hearings cleared her of, and/or the emails which turned out...

The rich and powerful seldom do time.

They've grabbed his phone.

Just because it's not on the news doesn't mean it's not happening.

A lot of s**t can hit the fan before November's elections.

I didn't say I expect it to change.

I think we're witnessing the great experiment failing.

On the aforementioned trip up Long Island Sound, we left Port Jefferson and planned to just go to the next harbor, which we somehow missed. FOG was coming, so we decided we best anchor where we were....

Imagine if women got to write the laws.

Lack of any accountability is dangerous. If one or more of these justices face impeachment, whether they are convicted or not, it MAY encourage future nominees to be more honest.

We are lied to constantly by politicians and some 'news' outlets. I see this as fraud. Most seem to accept it as free speech.

Free speech, as I learned it, does not protect fraud, inciting...

House members are elected by people in their district.

Senators are elected by the people in their state based on popular vote in that state, not which districts they carried.

Presidential...

I think we need to remember she lost because of the EC. That's, I believe, a serious flaw in our system, but I doubt we can change it.

Michelle Obama would likely be the strongest candidate. Or Mayor Pete.

Stepping back and looking at the big picture of 2016:

Those who could not bring themselves to vote for Hillary managed to elect a man who cheated on all three of his wives, lost lawsuits for...

One could argue she took some states for granted. One could argue Comey's last minute, and illegal, actions cost her the election.

Either way, we are where we are.

Got more votes and lost; what a country.

People voted for a man who, in fact, bankrupted most of his businesses, cheated on all three wives, lost a number of lawsuits, promised proof his wife's a...

No it didn't. The court that upheld Roe used the constitution.

Biden can sign bills that pass the house and senate. He is quite limited on what can be done via executive orders.

Congress CAN pass bills that protect women's rights. The CAN pass bills that...

I remembered a couple more since starting the thread. I was may 8 or 10 and we were coming out of the East River into New York Harbor and we saw a dark grey wall; fog coming.

Dad decided we'd head...

If dems pack the court, they'd better damn win majorities.

Long term, I'd like to see more justices on the court as that would render any one seat less important politically.

I also think...

Agreed. People will vote based on stuff government has little control of.

Wonder if Michelle Obama ran?

Legislation ought to pass on a simple majority. Putting a judge/justice on a bench should require a higher threshold.

I'd like to think some of us can multi task. If the house dems impeach (hold hearings) on these three justices lying, I'm inclined to think it would gain votes for democrats.

If no effort is made...

This will make November's election interesting.

Will voters be driven by inflation, which the government has little control over, or by abortion and voting rights; things the government CAN...

Not the term I'd use Ununited might be more appropriate.

Trump has destroyed everything he's touched. Why do people think the USA is immune?
