Yep, exactly like that. That's some truly progressive thinking, that is.

They may as well offer State pensions to allow retirement at age 50. It worked so well for Greece. .

Hell, in that case we should just rename everything in the US that isn't named for native Americans or Mexicans, because, you know - CRT.

I might feel that way had there actually been a vote held, but even under those circumstances I would question the wisdom of censoring history.

RIP - I never cared for his Bond movies, but not because he was cast on the role. I always thought that by the time he took over that the gadgets and stunts had become too ridiculous. I used to like watching him as The Saint when I was a kid. It used to come on right after The Avengers.

Hah! The Ritchie Blackmore signature model Stratocaster - awesome guitar. I own two of them. Great to see little gems like this on the show. http://shop.fender.com/en-US/electric-guitars/stratocaster/ritchie-blackmore-stratocaster/0139010305.html

Sir, please show a little respect. He's no puppet of Soros. Alex Jones maybe, but never George Soros.

Of course they are. Any place is better than an Ariana Grande show.

But your bot in now his B word. Fair enough. I think he's a freakin' moron too, but I also think he's trolling the living $%#@ out of you guys in Pavlovian fashion.

If that's what you call entertainment, then okay. I guarantee he gets more entertainment out of these exchanges than any of you guys do.

I try to avoid reading the facebook feed. After reading for about 5 or 10 minutes, I always have the urge to put a bullet in my head.

Lowering the top marginal rates brought in significantly increased tax revenue under Reagan. The term "trickle down" was coined by detractors of supply side economics, and is a buzz word used by leftists. Your bias is showing. I see you don't refer to JFK's fiscal policy in the same terms, yet he also supported lowering the top marginal rates. I don't know if you're unaware or just biased, but congress controls spending. During the Regan years, congress outspent the windfall tax revenue by approximately two-to-one. It's impossible to spend your way out of debt. And adding "jmo" is not an effective insulator against criticism when saying something ridiculous.

I was wondering if anyone was going to mention the chorus. At least Huber caught it: "Wait, don’t stop there — nothing about Reed’s use of the term “colored girls”?"

I'm cherry-picking here, but you did say this: "The U.S. economic system is far from idealistic given the massive debt. It was less then $1T if I remember when Carter left office." That sounds to me like you're blaming our economic system for the national debt, not political decisions, declaring it to be "far from idealistic (sic)". Could you please clarify that?

Do you believe that it's our "economic system" that creates a national debt?

They're practically guaranteeing four more years of Trump, and they're too damned preoccupied with their own sense of self-righteous indignation to see it.

I remember Netanyahu having a pretty solid ally with GW, and I don't recall much about his relationship with Clinton. My point wasn't so much about if our leaders get/got along with Israel, it was about Obama's open and well-reported support (including both cash and campaign operatives) for Netanyahu's opponent in the last election.

Say that out loud and see what your mouth tastes like after you've said it. On a bit of a separate note, if it's illegal for a foreign power to attempt to influence our election, how does it square with the Obama administration actively engaged in aiding the campaign against Netantahu?

Is that really the argument you're going with?

That's ridiculous. Are we keeping our revolutionary war hero statues to "look upon Britain"? Do we do so to thumb our noses at England? No, we do so to honor their sacrifice and heroism. Remember that to many in the south, both past and present, that the civil war was about states' rights vs the tyranny of a central authority, and they consider those who gave their lives and led the cause to be heroes. They don't do so out of some misguided lamentation over the freeing of slaves.

Hey, at least the judge was right.

Yep. I'm sure a few go there with the best of intentions, but all it takes is a two-year term to turn them into self-serving lobby-fodder.
