I know I've said this often, but free speech has limits. If this was a car dealer caught lying about the mileage on a used car, he'd be in jail.

I found this car as I sold my '66 Dodge (AC stopped working). This '84 Buick had only 37k miles and was a wonderful car to drive until we got hit in the rear on the Parkway. That hit caused my wife...
The sentence is the political part of this.
The president can only sign bills the congress passes. Other than that, the president has less control than we often think.
What's the max the jury can award? Is there a max?
This is a civil suit for money. At some point his speech was outside what is covered by the first amendment, and ought to be criminal. Perjury...
Smells a bit fishy, too.
My two great grandbabies are starting to crawl. They are big for their age. They were big at birth 7 1/2 lbs each. They held their own bottles early. Walking will take a bit as they're quite...
Interesting question.
Worst thing you can do to a rich man is make him a poor man.
I had problems reading with my cataracts. Now that they're removed, I still need reading glasses, but I bought several pair at the dollar store that work well.
Yesterday I grabbed one of the many...
Thanks. All in all, the people here, though they disagree on some stuff, are all very nice.
Thanks. I'm trying. MANY great memories. I think that makes it harder.
Seems putting people to sleep painlessly is not so easy as it is with pets. I wonder why/
Dawns on me that having pictures of things we did, places we went, etc. are relatively recent in human history. Photography had its roots in the 1800s, the general public having cameras to bring...
Humans can be strange people.
I keep asking, "Who is supposed to regulate that well regulated militia?" And, of course, there's the question of who is supposed to arm and train that militia; stuff in article one that's always...
Ah, the paperwork. OPM sent a lot of forms. Daughter helped me fill them out.
They told us computers would eliminate paper. Seems they were wrong.
This group of forms was necessary, and...
Really is a sad commentary. The very people they screw keep voting for them.
Greed is an ugly thing.
I guess rational is subjective. Protecting our right to vote seems, to me, rational.
It's not easy. All sorts of emotions are bouncing around in my head. ANYTHING that serves as a distraction is probably a good thing.
Tomorrow my oldest daughter and I start filling out forms and...
Same channel that carried cup races. Same foil boats, but much more interesting with 9 boats on the course.
More coming. Look for it. Thinks it's CBS Sports channel. Show is "SAILING".
But is he trustworthy?
I can certainly use a distraction.
Glad someone has something to look forward to. Glad I can help, I think.
Is showing races now; started at 7 pm eastern time.
heaven forbid we should tax the wealthy. Why is debt only a problem when GOP is not in the white house?
It's a bid difficult for me these days. But I'll post some, I'm sure.
Does this great title come with a check?
Seems to me there are things we need the private sector to do, and things we need the government to do. Are we wise enough to know which is which?
I've had so many pets in my life, and I miss every one of them.
Gets increasingly difficult to brag about the USA.
Not only have we a poor record of helping vets (or those who dug through the rubble at ground zero), we've sent them into wars that served no...
I'd kind of like NO parties, but have no idea how to get there.
And Sinima?
A multi party system would have to be designed to reach two candidates left to run against each other.
I expect most here have seen reports on companies raising prices simply to take advantage of the situation. Reich points out that the oil companies are making record profits.
The wealthy...
I don't think we need new laws. I believe people speaking on a "news" network should be required to get facts correct. I believe anyone in our government should be required to get facts correct.
I...
That's not true. I had (they've died) family members who wanted to know, and they watched FOX every night.
If you know, how much is it to take a car across the Sound?
No, but passing out won't help much either.
The question is one of what it will take to convince people global warming is not a Chineses hoax, but a real threat to the human race?
It's nice to...
My friend bought a chess set with, I believe, hockey players. As we got into the game, we had a great deal of trouble trying to remember what the pieces were.
It is a bit insane, isn't it?
We live in a world where wealthy people are simply treated differently.
Ford Explorers rolling over killed more that 400 people. Who got arrested?
Remember the BP rig. Wasn't up to safety...
We are at a place in the USA where the information one gets as factual depends entirely upon where on gets that information.
Following Thursday night's hearing, Stephanie Ruhle pointed out, sadly,...
Problem is many think in extremes.
Elizabeth Warren was correct when she gave her little speech about how the roads and such we all pay for benefit everyone, private people and businesses...
I'd say you're correct. I'd also be inclined to be a bit lenient in such hot weather.
cops can't be wacko?
I'm hesitant to predict. It is sad that so many people watch FOX and such. They likely have no concept of what actually comes of out the hearings. On the other hand, some republicans MUST be aware.

Had a very nice gathering at my daughter's home to remember June. 40 people showed up, some for me and some for our daughters. So many great memories were shared. Given that the Mrs. drank nothing...
Yes, it is an obligation to show up. One, then, can tell the truth, lie, or take the 5th. If subpoenas are not enforced, the country is in more trouble than we thought.
I needed that laugh.
Would be nice if Bannon's being found guilty if a preview of things to come. Guess the question is one of who gets the last laugh.
