Dunno, but it was certainly interesting to look at the reported evidence rather than something with zero evidence.Baloo said:So the Clinton's weren't running a child sex ring from a Pizza shop?
Democrats having gibbering hissy fits over the Trumpster turning their circus on it's arse is one of the funniest shows in town.Impeachment "Trial" underway. So strange to watch the death throes of political democracy in the English-speaking world. No matter where you look, parody and irony are dead.

Amazing that the septics have been supposedly the biggest show on earth for the last hundred years n they're run by a complete n utter bunch ******* imbeciles.
The demonstration in Richmond Virginia the other day with groups of whities walking through the streets with their guns in their holsters and assault rifles im full view is one of the scariest things I have seen in a western country.
what are they protesting? Laws that will restrict them to buying one gun a week, limit ability to buy military assault weapons and better background checks on people buying high powered weapons
The US has gone mad.
What Trump did is definitely impeachable, but impeachment has always been more about the politics, so he'll get off.
What the Democrats are not getting is that the Republicans will no longer play ball at all. In the US system it just doesn't work to have congress voting on strict party lines. The whole thing is a mess.
The gerrymandering is rife for House seats. But, while this may not be fair or democratic (whatever that means in representative democracy), the Democrats have seen this happen for years and they need to have more focus on State parliaments if they ever want to turn it around.
As for the Presidential race, the Democrats might now understand after 2016 that they can't assume they will win states like Michigan by default.
Trump got elected because Hilary was offering more of the same. The same being the middle class getting screwed for years while the rich do very well. Trump isn't the answer, but at least he was promising something different, why not try it out given you know more of the same will do you no good.
Knighter's Revenge, the Prisoners Dilemma is precisely how neo-liberals want the world to work. It informs their notions of strategic rationality and the like. It's a crock, but everyone, individually, working for their own ends and screw everyone else is their nirvana.

Yeah, the judicial appointments will have an impact for such a long time.
What gets me is that the Republicans made it clear they would never allow an Obama nominated justice onto the Supreme Court so there was already a vacancy when he left office. Why do the Dems allow the Trump nominees in, isn't it a two-thirds majority to confirm a Supreme Court justice?

You need the Senate not the house for judicial appointments.
Roe v Wade is seriously under threat. The irony is that, back when the judgement was made, Republicans supported the decision. The whole Roe v Wade case was won on the basis that the state should not intervene in a personal matter such as abortion. The right clearly have no scruples about intervening in peoples' personal lives these days: want to ban abortion, oppose single sex marriage, want to make sure gender is binary defined, then again, it is only later that neo-liberalism rose to the prominence it now has.
