Yeah you're right. I think GOP voters confuse lower taxes with being fiscally conservative. In point of fact, the GOP has been far more reckless with public finances because they continue to spend but at the same time cut taxes with the resulting bigger deficits. Of course many believe that cutting ...

Relax Always-Smashed, but you're wrong yet again. It was the Dems blowing trillions on COVID relief. Any opportunity to blow money and the Dem party is all over it. Republicans of the last ten years have not exactly been fiscally conservative. If memory serves, your MAGA guy wanted to keep shelling...

And who'd have thought from his resume that I'd actually think Johnson was doing a half-way decent job? Bar is set pretty low right now, no? He's benefitting from that a bit! Oh for sure. I'm not saying I'd vote for the guy, but he did get some things done that really needed to get done (budget, Uk...

How does what China eats put the Noem thing in perspective? Does Putin murdering political dissidents put murder in the U.S. in perspective? People eat steak in the U.S. but that doesn't stop people from being outraged when they hear stories of animal cruelty involving cattle. Why can't you folks ju...

Rare moment of unity as Democrats jump in to stop MTG's stupid move to oust Johnson. Kinda gives me some hope that there are serious people among these clowns who are willing to do at least some of the work that needs to be done. And who'd have thought from his resume that I'd actually think Johnson...

Ah, so you've heard it from partisan TV talking heads on broadcast news. Makes sense, but that's not what I'd call "the legal community" (FFS Hanson isn't even a lawyer) and certainly no indication of what "most" in that community think. And no, I don't think failing to maintain ...

Ahhhh... Jack Smith (the stupid prosecutor) tampered with the documents AND the Biden admin set up Trump by sending him classified documents he didn't know about. What's your basis for this knowledge? In the latest filing, the only thing Trump's team alleges is that the prosecutor didn't maintain t...

Yes, the Romans literally killed Jesus but they were merely following the wishes of the Pharisees and the mob. The Jews were responsible. Right because the Roman governor of Judea had no choice but to kill an innocent man because "the Jews" wanted him to. Sounds plausible. :roll: However,...

That brings up another point - how unfair is it to attribute the acts of a small mob to an entire people? Anyone with a basic sense of morality should be able to see how unethical that line of thinking is. That being said, this is partly a problem of gullible people being convinced that this account...

I'll repeat myself. The problem isn't that she shot the dog. They shot the dog in Old Yeller, too, but nobody blames that guy. The problem is why she did it and how she talked about it afterwards - it made her look like a psychopath.

More unbelievable ignorance! From Matthew 27: Did you actually read what you just posted? I mean, it's right there. The Jews didn't actually do any crucifying. The Romans did. Pilate's cute little attempt to pass off the blame isn't something that would hold up in any court anywhere. He's the one w...

What was markedly different before 2015 was that the U.S. wasn't producing more than it consumed. From a strictly economic perspective, so long as the price wasn't fixed, an export ban didn't really matter because there was never enough local supply anyway. Once the U.S. started producing more than ...

Couldn't the US government ban oil/gas exports and price fix? If we truly have enough to be self-servant, why not eliminate the rest of the world from the market flux that causes cost vulnerability? Or are we not that confident in US supply/production? First, it would be totally impractical because...

What complications do you speak of? Allowing Iran to prosper and profit presents the greatest complications. It's just not that simple. Any aggressive action you take in Iran has ripple effects around the world. Iran has allies that could take retaliatory measures. Some OPEC countries could decide ...

Never said anything about appeasement or placation. Iran certainly is a spade. But going after them directly involves complications that I'm not sure most are will to entertain. Would it be worth $10 per gallon gas prices to you?
