  1. Sean Hannity is a pundit. CNN is a news organization.
  2. I do. That was the purpose of the bombing. Certain things will not be tolerated, there will be repercussions, and Assad was made to understand exactly that.
  3. Nations survive by making examples of other nations.
  4. ... You're unusually casual in your lack of self awareness.
  5. I encourage you, while not optimistic given your brief posting history, to focus on not saying such ignorant ****.
  6. I suppose this is true, but at the same time I'm hard pressed to care, given what Senator Biden had to say about nomination to the Court. The Democrats showed their hand, putting on display how they planned to rule. Given that, the opposition part really has no choice but to play by the rules set.
  7. Nothing happened to Garland. The Senate did it's duty.
  8. What should Republicans have done here?
  9. Why? What do you have against women's suffering?
  10. I'm not opposed to term limits, but don't believe they fix this problem. Senators would still be elected by their party's base. You'd still wind up with the exact same type of candidate, you'd just have more turnover of the exact same type of candidate.
  11. Senators are elected by their party's base at the state level, which is why they report to their base. This is how the House was designed to function, not the Senate. The Senate was designed to represent the interests of the states, and to be a legislative check on the partisan rancor of the House. When the 17th Amendment went into place, this check was done away with. What we have now is a House of Representatives, and a Super House of Representatives.
  12. Incorrect. As I just posted in another thread, the fix is the repeal of the 17th Amendment.
  13. That will never happen unless the 17th Amendment is repealed.
  14. Meh. I had something else typed, but your narrow minded response isn't worth it.
  15. It's only the third worst idea you've supported in this thread, so... an improvement I guess?
  16. So you're calling the half of the country who voted for him because of the things he said on the campaign trail pieces of **** as well then?
  17. This is a good thing, though I'm not sure it implies everything you (and I) would have hoped. Bannon is said to have asked off the committee, has only attended a single meeting to date, and has his choice for NSA sitting on the council now. He's also still a part of Trump's inner circle, and still holds all of his clearances.
  18. You're running a business without a profit motivation? With employees?
  19. The reason for the disparity in compensation is the disparity in replacement value. The guy with the floor mop doesn't have a valuable skill set that sets him apart. Anyone can mop a floor, which means that while the demand for 1 floor mopper is one labor unit, the supply of floor moppers is over 7 billion labor units. There are far fewer individuals with the skill set to run a business, and manage hundreds of individuals effectively relative to the markets demand for them, so they get paid more.
  20. And yet again baskin shows up to spout off some objectively false nonsense. Good to see you again, baskin. Be sure to let us know when you have something else dumb to say.
  21. And ownership can lose their entire investment, and all of their capital. And as the above poster mentions, employees incur no actual loss. You're giving excuses.
  22. Very rarely are there "friends" in geo-politics, just overlapping interests.
  23. No. Socially liberal = I don't care what you do, so long as it doesn't violate anyone's rights Fiscally conservative = don't ask me to pay for it, or the results of any bad decisions you make
