I know, and I mean it. It’s become clear that this is no longer a society that respects the high road or any shared ethic of honesty, truthfulness, and forthrightness, not to mention basic tenets of reality. You can’t unilaterally disarm, unless the coming subjugation is more tenable than violating scouts honor.
Are you saying because we don't have troops there we have no influence on what happens?
simmer down. some sarcasm in play, sort of.
I'm saying that we are not participants in that war.
That would have been a good retort. Trump probably had no idea what health care was provided to prisoners. Her sound bite saying it would "advance the movement" was a priceless gift to Trump's campaign however.
Please don't be offended but your post resonated with me. I'm not going to pretend to know your situation or lecture you on what you should do. I'm just going to say that the answer to a better situation doesn't lie with any potus, regardless of party, or in large part in politics. Despite the politics, there are numerous paths to a better situation and I sincerely hope you find them. I was once in a not so dissimilar situation and understand the stress it creates.
I don't think we "suddenly got conservative".
Which does make sense until you see now Boomers have gotten more democrat than Gen X??
I would love to know the total number of prisoners that have received gender reassignment surgery while in prison. It’s absurd that something like this was a major component of a Presidential campaign.
I think this goes along with the theme that however much people want to blame economic anxiety, it's probably at least equal parts social/cultural anxiety. Culture can move so fast these days and it can give you whiplash trying to keep up. Just like our taste in music is mostly set in our teens and twenties, other parts of our cultural identify probably are too, and it can become disconcerting to feel like our own identity is becoming divorced from where the culture is headed.
I am not sure if I am one of “you guys” but no and I think she called him early this morning to say that she and Biden will insure a smooth transfer of power. She is addressing the nation at 4 pm today.
1. Yes. Pubs won't do it, or at most they may do it with some limited exception then try to close the door behind them on the way out; but I would prefer a full repeal, both because it's the right thing for democracy and because I think it would be good politically for Dems. As you may have seen in another thread, I am in favor of Pubs getting the opportunity to put their full legislative agenda in place and don't want them to have any excuses for not doing so. Because they have no real legislative agenda, and to the extent they do it's very unpopular, and I would prefer for people to be able to see very clearly that the emperor has no clothes when it comes to Republican plans to fix anything.
Yeah, the ugly truth is that 92% of Evangelical Christians voted for Trump and they no doubt will spout platitudes about believing in fair play and charity and raising their kids to have good morals and yet they're voting for Donald Trump. I mean, how do you look a kid in the eye with a straight face and lecture them about the importance of telling the truth and being a good person when you're also a Trumper? And that especially applies to their daughters. Trump's example negates everything that most people try to teach their kids about the importance of being a good person and character. And yet here we are.
Well I'm saying our projected weakness emboldened putin, as it did under obama. Obviously that is just my opinion and not expecting you to agree. Along those lines, one of my biggest fears in a harris win was china invading taiwan during her term. Again, not expecting you to agree but you at least know where I'm coming from.
Hard to believe our message to conservative white women to secretly vote for Kamala against the demands of their husbands didn’t work.
