  1. Right now is an imperative time to start caring.
  2. I'd love to hear a self described "Pro Life" individual, tell me why the mentally ill should have guns.
  3. "WE MUST HAVE EXTREME VETTING FOR REFUGEES POSING AS TERRORISTS EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE NOT KILLED ANYONE" 30k Gun deaths a year. "Hey let's let the mentally ill have firearms." 100% Pro Life? Or 100% Pro Profits?
  4. "The House on Thursday struck down an Obama-era regulation that sought to keep guns out of the hands of the mentally ill." http://thehill.com/regulation/317634-house-republicans-block-obama-era-gun-rule How can you justify wanting mentally ill people to have guns?
  5. Could've sworn something like that had a name... Where separation of church and state didn't exist, and the words of a holy book ruled as the law of the land...
  6. He's still a producer on that show. Faux feud for ratings.
  7. And how does this help us? It doesn't. I'm not sure why Republicans hate the environment so much. I would've thought they'd do everything in their power to protect God's creation. They don't hate the environment. I can't find the exact article anymore, but a conservative criticism I read recently called the GOP corporatist rather than free market. Very, very accurate diagnosis IMO. You're right, they don't "hate" the environment. They simply don't care about it or how destroying it can affect others.
  8. It's interesting to me how the GOP's current standard bearer is endorsed by the Klan, and yet bnil is complaining about inclusiveness.
  9. The reality, huh? Can you prove that? Can you provide some data? If not, you should stop claiming it to be true. . This is something I see constantly with Conservative posts, bold claims with zero empirical support or evidence. But to the point of that statement. Yeah there might be less if it was Hillary, would it have anything to do with the fact she's spent 8 years in the White House, been a US Senator and served as Secretary of State? Would it have to do with the fact she's actually an experienced person and wouldn't concern herself with things like Arnold Schwarzenegger's Apprentice ratings?
  10. Not a turbine, and pretty expensive as a fan. I'm aware. It was a joke.
  11. And how does this help us? It doesn't. I'm not sure why Republicans hate the environment so much. I would've thought they'd do everything in their power to protect God's creation. This was a long time ago and just a random person but one of my mom's Christian friends told her we shouldn't worry about global warming because God will fix it if he wants and Christians are going to heaven anyway. She's not the only one with those sentiments "Congressman says God will save us from climate change." http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/us-politics/8123790/Congressman-says-God-will-save-us-from-climate-change.html So it's one part that, and one part the fact trees and streams aren't funding reelection... wealthy pro-business interests are. I think it's pretty much only that. GOP snows the rubes pretty well by using the ol' holy book for whatever part of their agenda they want.

  14. Yea. Whats that going to do? It certainly isn't going to give Hilary the presidency. I don't think the left should actually root for Trump being impeached. If it happens you'll be begging for him to come back. It's not about Hillary. It's about removing a devastatingly incompetent and downright abhorrent human being from the most dignified desk in the world.
  15. Explain this one to me. 0 deaths from terrorists posing as refugees since 2001. All of a sudden we aren't vetting well enough and we need to ban them. Even though they haven't killed anyone. 30k+ deaths a year from gun violence. No extreme vetting. Shouldn't we do something about that? "Fru, refugees aren't citizens!" Well, constitutional rights have been interpreted to extend to non citizens http://www.forbes.com/sites/danielfisher/2017/01/30/does-the-constitution-protect-non-citizens-judges-say-yes/#7e58d0d55520 http://thehill.com/blogs/pundits-blog/immigration/255281-yes-illegal-aliens-have-constitutional-rights
  16. Relax a bit. Half of that is bordering on incoherence. But again, 0 deaths by terrorists posing as refugees since 2001. I understand that despicable methods are used involving kids, the elderly, the disabled etc. But again, 0 deaths from terrorists posing as refugees.
  17. I'm just going off the stats. 0 murders from terrorists posing as refugees since 9/11. But if putting a 5 year old girl in handcuffs is what it takes for you to feel safe, then hey, I guess we have the right occupant for the Oval Office!
  18. It doesn't. It's a distraction issue to get the rubes riled up and anyone that opposes it hates safety, security and America.
  19. Defend what? Are you including all those losers that voted for 3rd party candidate that must feel like sh#t. For example, I've asked plenty of times for someone to defend putting Rick Perry in charge of the nukes. I'm yet to get a response. Or defending putting a 5 year old in handcuffs. https://twitter.com/barrytgoldberg/status/826040518060699650 Or having someone like Bannon on National Security council. Not divesting from his businesses. Ya'know. Things like that. To your second question. Yes, to a degree. I'm not going to refer to them losers. I'm sure there's plenty of people who voted 3rd party who wish they hadn't now.
  20. There have been zero deaths from refugees. This is an invented problem, just like voter fraud.
  21. I think some people are feeling ostracized because for too long they've enjoyed the comfort of their opinions and have not experienced the discomfort of thought, critical thinking and fact checking. (Roundabout JFK quote) I think some people are feeling ostracized because they're realizing they got snowed into voting for a reality show TV star. I think some people are feeling ostracized because they're uninformed and being called on it. I think some people are feeling ostracized because during the campaign they could do mental gymnastics and rationalize that Trump wasn't as bad as Hillary, and now that the Hillary comparison is gone, they're now having to defend the indefensible. I think some people are feeling ostracized because they're finally realizing that their votes have consequences
