From the thread's namesake

I think Sanchez's personal...problems are enough of a punishment for him.
You're glad my brother is autistic? Whatever dickbag.
Was that caused by the same undesirable, inbred genes that caused you to become a neo-Nazi alt-rightist?

Holy moly. We should really consider a temporary ban.

What is absurd about this? I'm not an Armenia expert, so I don't know much about their internal politics (aside from a 50 page article I once read on the late Soviet-era/early independence era Armenian church), so I am left to assume you are referring to its friendship with Iran.

Preferring one country over another purely based on religion is practically the definition of bigotry. Plus, I get the feeling he would not be saying that if the question was whether he preferred Malta or, say, Bosnia.

Fair enough. I guess my curiosity was owing to the fact that we've known how BRTD's... abnormal mind works for quite some time, and secondly my own slight instinctive preference for Armenia owing partially to their religion, but also to their status as a diaspora people and their being slightly more democratic.

Preferences between abstract constructs aren't bigotry.

largely have been able to avoid this Gigantic Douche, but he's a big jerk who contributes nothing positive to the forum

x R2D2

Just because he "contributes nothing" (IYHO), that is no reason to ban him.  If Coraxion is banned, will I be next, because I support Trump?

As far as I know, the first person who started this bad idea that national socialism was left-wing was Ludwig von Mises. He worked in the fascist Austrian government, but when nazism became a disaster, it became better for the right to throw nazism to the left.

Most Nazis were originally socialists. They were national - not international. All are authoritarian.

Hitler wanted all the socialist goodies - central bank, government schools, nationalized (de-facto) of key industries, and the destruction of capitalism.

There are MANY MANY quotes on this subject. Mises and Hayek just popularized it at a time which frankly was very hostile to laissez faire capitalism.

At the end of the day Hitler, Lenin, Stalin were closer than many think and Mises was one of the few advocates of liberalism (classical 18th and 19th century version) and capitalism at a time when so many were either socialist or nationalist. It was a dire time for the world and the 1930's in the US and UK was a very red decade. It is telling that Mises, a Jew himself is considered a fascist.

Canada. Ideally NAFTA would exclude Mexico.

Disgusting.

The stupid thing is that would just be the Canada-United States Free Trade Agreement which predated NAFTA. NAFTA without Mexico would be completely redundant.

You shouldn't be "completely devoted" to or have "complete faith" in ANY politician's judgement ... like seriously, that's ed up.

Uh, no? That's perfectly fine...but not for Trump. Not at all. But for Barack Obama, that's how I was for almost 10 years, and for Bernie Sanders, that's how I am now.

What's wrong with that? That's how I feel about Gavin Newsom.

People should also remember that Afghanistan is basically just the part of India that the British and others couldn't conquer.

Sure it'll be an issue with some black voters.

But overall it'll help her. A lot of the resentment against Democratic women is that they are seen as not being under the ownership of white men; particularly if those women are white. It is seen that these women should be the cheerleading brigade for white men, but aren't as they've joined the party of minorities. As a woman of color, white men have less of an ownership feeling towards Harris to begin with; being married to a white man only makes her even less threatening. In some ways she's the perfect Democratic woman to assuage white men's anxieties.

Sanders isn't "far-left" and the "centrist" relics aren't "mainstream" anymore if intra-party polls are to be believed.




The last primary debunked your point. No matter how much Bernie Bros proclaimed as the future of the party, key constituents such as woman of color are always going to determine the policies through their powerful voices. Right now the base is being attacked by the bros and I think the only solution that should've been Tom Perez position to begin with, was to never pandered to a bunch of racist, sexist upper-class white guys who will be voting Republican in ten years. If we had followed that advice we would've been in better shape regarding our current division that was caused by the sh**tstorm by Bernard and his gang of deplorables. No matter what comes out of these fraud polls,  the base will backdrop any attempts to allow the far-left opposition into our party.

Kelli Ward isn't opposed to weekends and like me she hates John McCain and Jeff Flake.

I always said that far right and far left are, essentially, the same (intolerance + bigotry, especially to other views). Now i am even more sure...

Who might run in the likely special election in 2018 or 2020? Greg Stanton, Jeff DeWit, Martha McSally, Jan Brewer, Doug Ducey, Ruben Gallego?

Eww, Jan Brewer, she looks like a discolored sun dried tomato that was beaten up by John Cena, she has more wrinkles than a darn prune.

Here's my extremely broad range of Republican House seats that I can see potentially flipping (of course most of these probably won't happen, but I know someone on here will take that part of my qualifier out of context):

AK-AL, AZ-2, AZ-6, AR-2, CA-10, CA-21, CA-22, CA-25, CA-39, CA-45, CA-48, CA-49, CO-3, CO-6, FL-18, FL-25, FL-26, FL-27, GA-6, GA-7, IL-6, IL-12, IL-13, IL-14, IA-1, IA-3, KS-2, KS-3, KY-6, ME-2, MI-6, MI-11, MI-7, MI-8, MN-2, MN-3, MO-2, MT-AL, NE-2, NJ-2 (if open), NJ-3, NJ-7, NJ-11, NY-1, NY-2 (if open), NY-11, NY-19, NY-21, NY-22, NY-23, NY-24, NC-9, OH-1, PA-6, PA-7, PA-8, PA-16, TX-7, TX-32, TX-23, the new court-ordered Texas seat, UT-4, VA-2, VA-5, VA-10, WA-3, WA-8, WV-3, WI-7, WI-8.

I'm sure I'm missing more. EDIT: NM-2, NV-2, MI-1, IN-2

I will acknowledge though, Timmy, that I'm more bullish on Democratic chances of mitigating Senate losses (or even making a net gain) than most people, but I've already addressed that in excruciating detail. I guess we'll see!

Again - "chance to flip" and "guarantee to flip" are very different things. Only during biggest waves  second group begins remotely resemble first one, usually it's much smaller...

Once-a-ing-gain, I clearly ing laid that out in my qualifier statement

I read it with great attention. I am simply very amused when someone uses list similar to your to "prove" that Democrats will win 50 seats next election. Except for utter collapse of Trump administration - they will not... But the attempts will, surely, continue..

I really don't have time to explain the definitions of every word I used, so I would recommend just not posting in response to other people if you can't comprehend things like "most of these probably won't happen, but I know someone on here will take that part of my qualifier out of context):" or "potentially flipping"

I have every right to comment what i want, so you may go to hell with all your "recommendations"....  I never give or accept such "advices" from anybody. And don't think that you are wiser then them, and your "forecasts" are better then theirs... Time will tell all... Rather soon.

If the voters in Lipinski and Cuellar's district want anti-abortion and anti same-sex marriage candidates they should just elect Republicans.
