The Simple Truths Silver Mine

And my argument doesn't just apply to Nathan. Nietzsche basically sourced the entire origin of Christianity altogether in mass moral self-victimization, and of course I took it from him.

To wit, this is also why Nathan thinks I consider all Christians flagellating Catholics.

The Constitution party is ridiculous to begin with, and making it Hawaii just makes it 5 times better.

Yep. 2016 is going to be pretty awesome when Hillary landslides with deep coattails. Who cares if she's not the perfect, ideal nominee? She'll do more for liberalism than President Warren with a hostile Congress ever could.

Anyone involved in making Iraq the mess it is today should be barred from speaking on Iraq.

[Antonio the Sixth]

Excellent news.

It is extremely important that these people live in fear for the rest of their lives. It's the closet thing to justice as can ever be found.

[Joe Republic]

Honestly, it boggles my mind that most of the blue avatars on this site are willing to identify as Republicans. When you have to apologize for your party as much as you do, why do you even bother?

[Paul Kemp]

Ok, you people keep bringing up random ethnically named team names but none are an actual slur. Braves or Indians (though that logo is even more racist than the name redskins) is not a racist slur. Fighting Irish is not an ethnic slur. Vikings especially is not an ethnic slur.

Dude, get over the whole Vince Foster thing.  Hillary had to kill him to keep her role in the Whitewater scandal secret.

[Joe Republic]

Fine. Hide behind your religion like the rest of your Bible Belt brethren in Oklahoma, Arkansas, and elsewhere.

It goes miles in explaining why you're all overweight, underemployed and more prone to everything from diabetes to divorce.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Bushie your diet is garbage and I'm not even talking about health wise. Flavor wise it sucks.

Fast food bacon cheeseburgers and Diet Dr Pepper every day? Please. Eating unhealthy is one thing but eating the same crap is a waste of life.  Before you even start eating a weird vegan health diet like you plan on, you need at least try to eat different kinds of junk.

I'm chowing down a chicken shawarma right now. Is that healthy at 1 am? No, but damn it's better than a bacon cheeseburger 14 times a week.

I don't think the Redskins should be forced to change their name, but the name is clearly in really bad taste and should have been changed years ago.

[Paul Kemp]

Can we please not do this?  The whole Brian Schweitzer thing.  Can we just shove him in a closet somewhere, like junior assistant undersecretary of Agriculture or something and just forget he exists?

[Oldiesfreak1854]

President Gore wouldn't have prevented 9/11.  I don't see how any president could have done that. And I highly doubt Saddam would have squashed al-Qaeda.

Well, not ignoring a memo literally titled "Bin Laden determined to strike U.S." would probably be a start.

Now, I dislike Bush as much as the next guy, but that particular memo did not present any specific information that could have prevented 9/11. It was mostly a general summary of past Al-Qaeda plots against American targets (successful ones-including the embassy bombings in 1998 and the USS Cole bombing in 2000-as well as a few failed plots, including the Millennium plan to bomb Los Angeles International Airport in 1999/2000)  and possible/potential future Al-Qaeda plots.

Saying that "bin Laden has the intent of striking targets within the US and has a past record of attacking American targets abroad"  is not the same thing as saying "We have actionable intelligence of al-Qaeda operatives who are going to hit X,Y, and Z targets on this particular date, at this particular time."

I might have entered this in the deluge when the post was made, but now that I am six months older (and six seconds wiser), I find this to be a pretty solid post.

As far as Republican governors go, not that bad. But he's obviously a HP overall.

I personally have little problem with corruption, especially the insignificant vanities the McDonnells were into. You need a bit of corruption to grease the wheels, otherwise no one would want to be a politician and nothing would be accomplished. Some of our greatest public servants have also been incredibly corrupt.

[Antonio the Sixth]

Do you get off on this?

[Hamster]

But your a liberal and a Democrat, so it's okay for you to feel that way. Amarite?

Twit.

You are probably too stupid to recognize the hypocrisy of your own remarks, so I'll spell it out for you:  Personal attacks are okay for moderators, amarite?

So? My Dad still listens to the same music he listened to as a teenager. Things only go "out of style" if you care more about what other people think of you for listening to it than for your view of the music itself.

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

The tea party is officially dead. You can't win a MISSISSIPPI runoff against a moderate republican? LOL

But the Tea Party can still win in Virginia...

It's apparent that Cochran is just a better person than McDaniel. That's why he won.

[Antonio the Sixth]

Death is sometimes the result of lack of government. This is indisputable. Someone dies because they aren't treated. The government could have treated them.

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

the evidence is pretty clear:

1.  bushie left in a huff after he learned of a final project.
2.  grade turns out to be significantly lower than he first reported.
3.  career services refuses to help him.
4.  bushie will not use russ powers to assist him in the job search.
5. no certificate.

I would have voted to keep the sentence in to poison pill the amendment.

The problem with poison pills is that you might end up swallowing them.
