Re: Katie Britt’s Shtick Abides

Certainly one of the most intractable guarantees that such conflicts will continue is that the world's arms manufacturers on all sides are profiting immensely from them. Can there be any reasonable doubt that many, if not most, of the world's arms manufacturers and dealers, would rather provoke the ...

Re: Katie Britt’s Shtick Abides

It sometimes seems to me sometimes that Hamas and the Netanyahu government are competing to see who can be the most brutal and hateful. It's sad how many can't see that opposing the Israeli government's brutal extremes is not equivalent to antisemitism and opposing the slaughter and starvation of in...

Re: Libertarian Fools' Paradise

I keep wanting to think libertarianism is so yesterday with the new right -- the classical right who is led by the alt-right. The messaging is about making Trump supreme ruler, which is hardly a libertarian ideal. A model of a functional republic for Today's right would be the likes of Tajikistan o...

Re: Libertarian Fools' Paradise

All wonderful insights, Dean Robbers. I was struck by an argument about fascist Germany that I recently encountered on one of the cable “news” shows. The Nazis were able to stitch together enough support from different quarters to take power. It was by appealing to the desires of normally incompati...

Re: The Trump Criminal Case MEGATHREAD.

The left knows this, so why are they so intent on doing so much damage to the reputation of the US justice system? Perhaps that's the point. That's what they really want, not to destroy Trump, but to destroy America and move on from an outdated document written by racist white men. :lol: :lol: :lol...

Re: The Court Just Sealed Everyone’s Fate, Including Its Own

I don't see why we are still arguing about this. The unequivocal fact is that whether or not we call this country a constitutional republic or representative republic or whatever, All legal, law-abiding American citizens aged 18 or above are (so far, at least) granted a legitimate and significant sa...

Re: The Court Just Sealed Everyone’s Fate, Including Its Own

i understand your perspective, but mine is a little different. The problem with term "witch hunt" is that sometimes there are witches. The first impeachment started with a witch -- the transcript of Trump's telephone call with the President of Ukraine. It certainly provided evidence that Trump abus...

Re: The Court Just Sealed Everyone’s Fate, Including Its Own

I do believe this that the first impeachment trial was a witch-hunt. One of the squad when she took office the first day of the new congress said lets go impeach the m’thr fkr. The first impeachment was a clown-show- case and they would never get a conviction with McConnell as the majority leader o...

Re: The Court Just Sealed Everyone’s Fate, Including Its Own

I don't understand what the billionaire class and puppets has to do with these cases, given that we can't vote against Clarence Thomas. ;) ;) ;) I agree with you that this piece is political fear mongering of the kind I expect to see from Fox News. Ms. Tannehill doesn't seem to understand what Just...
