Senate The US Politics discussion

As pointed out elsewhere earlier today, free will finds a good few limitations in the nature of brain process

No such compelling at play here either. You probably have a rationale motivating your position, as intolerant as it may be - that's your free will

 

I just will never understand how cleaning out a clump of cells that isn't even anything yet is so terrible but allowing a child that is alive and fully aware to starve to death is okay.

 

Proximity bias?

 

Lol.

What a wonderful political gift that would be to the Democrats.

 

@Vaderize03

It's like Mitch wanted to give the Democrats another political ad to use. ObamaCare is more popular then it's ever been in this country in large part to how the country saw firsthand the clown show of all clown shows that was the TrumpCare efforts. This is what happens though when you in world of total black and white where the "government is the problem" and the "mainstream media" is always out to get you even though they are not.

 

you mean in the country where people laughed at Obamacare being repelled because they don't have that, they have the ACA?

Yes, silly Republicans.

 

Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

 

Absolutely.

 

That's two in two days, along with cutting Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security. These are gifts, are the Dems smart enough to take them? There should be non stop ads about nothing but this. Those four words should be 99% of the ads.

The Christian thing to do is to sell them arms so they can continue to murder children in neighboring countries.

 

Eh, changed my mind.

 

And to worship Business, the almighty Deal.

 

If the U.S., Turkey, and Saudi Arabia all agree that a rogue element carried out this killing, they will be setting a dangerous precedent. It will be their cover story that will openly enable U.S. allies to kill those who criticize their governments in the most brutal ways.

It's disgusting. They wanted to get this guy so badly that they sent a person with a bone saw after him. It shouldn't come as a surprise, given how that government has beheaded people long before this. But, man, bone saws... It's like they get their ideas from bad Hollywood movies.

 

I don't think Turkey would agree with that. It's in their interests to take Saudi Arabia down a notch.

 

All I know is if I'm Jim Acosta, I'm making sure my security is paid well.

 

Trump would let Russia, Israel, and Saudi Arabia get away with anything. As for other U.S. allies, he would not mind criticizing Mexico, Canada, or a long list.

 

I would imagine that to Trump, Khashoggi's murder is something he hopes will scare American journalists.

 

Good to know Trump continues to prove he can always go lower...

 

I have no doubt in my mind he will bring it up one day in a press conference. He'll say something along the lines of "you guys with the fake news have to be more careful. look what happened to Khashoggi". Then he'll say that it was not a threat.

 

I'm pretty certain there's something in the Bible about the sins of murder and of worshipping the golden veal

 

Mmmm, veal
