GOD I know better to even reply to Bill..... But you have to be fucking kidding me. Look the Dem's start with the nuclear option. (Picture a mean little kid on the play ground. He beats up another kid) The other kid goes home and works out over the summer (picture a election) Edit to add: Trump just suggested the nuclear option for his SC pick. This will drive the Dem's crazy, they are fixing to get a bloody nose for a fight they started. FWIW I wish they had NEVER put the nuclear option in play Before anyone here says they had to for the obstructionist Rep...understand that's how the Rep feel now - and NEITHER side has the moral high ground School starts and the first kid get's his ass kick by the other kid. Now the first kid is saying it isn't fair. Fair doesn't have shit to do with it. The Rep are going to put in the nuclear option for the S.C. and the Dem's will scream. They picked the fight....there going to get their asses kicked. Right or wrong that's just the fucking way it will be. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

I understand why Quade writes this sort of thing...I really do....(well actually I think I do) But I just can't dig up the moral superiority that some people can....the basic idea that the left is always correct the right is always wrong. Trump is doing what the people who elected him wanted. I think he's terrible BUT he is doing what these people expected. It's laughable that the left thinks they are reaching anyone with the wild emotions. If anything they are affirming what these people thought.

Everyone was talking of the end of the Republicans two weeks before Trump won. (Some here believe that he will be the end of them now) The Democrats aren't gone....period. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

I've enjoyed reading these post. Seriously. Some of the most liberal people here discussing something like this is interesting to me. Unless human nature changes radically this is all completely pie in the sky. It surely sounds good, it feels good to even discuss it.... All your doing is discussing a "new" system that replaces the current system where the lower percentage gets more for less. I favor a "new" system that helps the lower get to the middle and up. Our real problem is that the middle class isn't growing. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

THIS is were the country is at. We don't believe the LEO if there is a white cop that kills a black man - so the video damn sure better be on.... in a sad way AND I MEAN SAD....for the most part if the video equipment knew it was a white office and black man and TURNED on we'd have the best of all worlds because the ONLY thing BLM and the press cares about is that circumstance.

What I find as funny is a few years ago someone would call someone a "asshole" and you'd get the firm "One warning, cut it out." from Bill. Now we have people calling people assholes and a moderator in the thread - and nothing. ROTFLOL this forum is just like our country....all fucked up. All that matters is the people in power.

So is she raising funds....or is she saying she has the funds? If she has the money she goes BACK to the courts - or ask the court to review it. The court can so take a hike, or accept? How long does it generally take to get in front of the court? Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

What? My poll is "meaningless" Your kidding - why it was done under the most scientific methods. I was planning on having it published...... oh thank you your input. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

I would think that they would have a certain amount of time to appeal the LAST ruling. Once that time is out than I guess they get the money unless the courts take the appeal. SOMEBODY is paying a lot of money to the lawyers. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

At the top of my all time favorite Wendy comments. THIS is the problem and what really worries me is that the Rep had a chance to change (support Obama on good legislation) and didn't and the Dem's are coming out the same way with Trump. If neither of the teams will pay for the common man - we are screwed. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

I don't believe as a "party" that was the line. It wasn't with me or any of my friends. Basically we thought that whole issue was bs. Do you recall the "elections have consequences" comment, how about the passing of Obamacare straight down party lines? Do you really believe that was enough time to study what was in the bill before it passed? These an other action firmed up moderate Republicans. So I'll ask you a question and I'm genuinely curious....do you think Obama actions as president contributed to Trump being elected. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

I wish anybody but Trump had gotten elected, I couldn't vote for HRC though. IMO the failure of Obama to widen his support during his 8 years and the Dem's nominating HRC is what got Trump elected. Obama DID get health care past which was his passion but in doing so split the country up. I understand the dislike of Trump....but the Dem's nominated Hillary who was almost as disliked. Now my liberal friends are in a frenzy of Trump hate ....yet they don't seem to understand that their party help create a situation where Trump could get elected. Come on folks - Bernie would have killed Trump - yet you put up HRC. (Rep screwed up to) Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

Great. Whens' she got to start paying? Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

So are we at the point of her having to go to the SC....how long before she is required to start paying - or file bankruptcy? Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

John and others here will rejoice at any failure of the current admin I have to say that if the Republicans don't get some of the low hanging fruit out of the way.... FAST ......many of their believers will fall away. I do believe that Obama care needs changing but it won't be easy or fast. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

Boy am I guilty of this Recently I realized what a scandal free administration that Obama has run - but I was guilty of ignoring that and focusing on other issues. I believe I might need to start looking for what the government does good.... Great post. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

In my on going desire to figure out how the hell Trump got elected and to drag some of my liberal friends along with me... I can't figure out how to do a link but Google "CNN's Van Jones Speaks With Obama Voters Who Switched to Trump" While I'm not a fan of Van Jones I really think this interview hit's the nail on the head. Many people will poo-poo this family and make excuses or call them stupid but I think it's interesting. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2016/12/07/van_jones_speaks_with_obama_voters_who_switched_to_trump.html Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

Well the market has been going up - but we will credit that to Obama. When it starts down...of course we will blame Trump. As far as all the "stupid" people that voted for Trump that's thinking - and over the top comments is what got him elected. Sure it doesn't matter now....best you guys can do now is pray (wait most of you are atheist....) that he screws up in some terrible manner quickly and then we can throw him out.....maybe HRC will be available? Like Normiss said...get ready it's going to be different. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

Ok this is a great example....and all funny... (divorced wife and all) and I really believe that you DON'T understand....neither do I. But just blowing them all off as dumb women who aren't smart enough to vote intelligently is silly. A lot of women, blacks and Latino's voted for Trump - not near as many as voted for HRC I realize but why??? The best answer I have come up with is that although Trump is a nut case people are so feed up with establishment politics they would have voted for a brick rather than Clinton. (popular vote not withstanding) I can't imagine what it must feel like to have been a fanatical Clinton supporter to lose to Trump.

You may feel that way....but it really does appear from the polling that there was a "white working class vote" that did turn out - BUT you have to believe the polls and ....well they really didn't do to well in the election results! I'm betting it was more of a slight wave of these kind of voters and a LOT of other voters that didn't turn out that hurt HRC. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

I think there is a larger statement or question here. I understand that - heck 75% or more of the people here hate Trump....he's easy to hate. But he did - somehow win. What I am curious about is the real HOW. Certainly many of the people that voted for him held their nose but many DID chose to not take him literally. The press, HRC and all of her supporters did take him literally and figured he was a dead duck. They actually were happy (I bet) to run against him. But yet they lost. There seems to be a change, people are so FEED UP with the democratic party - and "normal" politics they elected Trump? They supported Sanders - think about that. Ten years ago would anything like that have happen? While you guys can all sit around and just bash the shit out of Trump you really aren't getting any closer to understanding WHY he got elected and until we really understand THAT.......well we might elect another one. BTW the idea that a bunch of dumb uneducated people elected Trump....true or not.....feeds into why all these people voted for him. "The peasants will follow the King anywhere but the King has one rule and only one rule....he can't call the peasants dumb" the press and many of the HRC called the peasants dumb....over and over again.

Several of the posters on this thread I read word for word but generally don't reply to. I do that to try and pick up on others views. Educating myself. You can't deny the things Trump has said. They are facts. You can't deny what he has done in his life - historical facts. You CAN examine what is presented to you through the press of your choosing with a critical eye. Last you can look at yourself - your life. Could YOU hold up to actions of 20 years ago? Example Trumps been sued X times. I've seen sued. "But you didn't run for and win the election" understand THATS the appeal to many -Trump isn't of the political class - he's going to have baggage that others don't have. I'm still not crazy about Trump but I'm going to give him his 90 days with an open mind. I see the fears expressed here as certainly reasonable.

Same to you all Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

Fact - in the year 2000 (I believe) it was firmly believed that we would be out of oil. Turned out not to be very true. I'm NOT saying what you posted above isn't true - I'm not sure of the history and effects of the above information is. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

A few weeks ago the Dem's were happily giggling about the death of the Rep party. Now the Rep are doing the same. The death of the Dem party is greatly exaggerated. If I was a Dem though I would be concerned about the state elections. But to my view is that the pendulum is swinging wider and wider each time. Think about it. Clinton to Bush....Bush to Obama....Obama to Trump. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little
