I’d hate to be that .26 percent of a tourist!

"it will be as a result of the independent voters" 

-riclag-

 

So you mean if the independent voters  vote for Mr. Trump it will mean he is not guilty. 

 

According to me it will only shows that they believe he is not guilty. 

 

I am still convinced we will never know if he is guilty or not. 

 

But we will know, if he wins again, that a majority believe he is not guilty, or don't care he may be guilty. 

I guess you are not aware of the book deal that former national security advisor John Bolton has.

Don’t tell them that! Don’t tell them about more Republicans supporting civil rights laws than Democrats either or they’ll go through the whole “magic switch” lie again. 

 

My response was to the United States electoral college that was written into the constitution in the late 1780's. The civil rights movement happened almost 180 years later. But political parties do change over time as what has become very apparent during the Trump presidency . If this was 46 years earlier like during the Nixon presidency Trump would be removed from office.

The Democrats were the party of slave owners. The GOP ended slavery.

Excuse me, I thought my response was directed towards the United States  electoral college that was written into the constitution and not the "end to slavery" which happened almost 100 years later.

They had no choice. It likely would have taken over a year to force those top insider witnesses through the courts. Of two bad choices, going ahead or being stalled out of doing anything, they made the only logical choice. 

Not to mention that a timely impeachment put an indelible stain on Trump's presidency. Also I would like to note that Nancy Pelosi and the House Democrats can drag this process out for as long as they want by not sending over the articles of impeach for a senate trial. The House Dems will probably wait well into next year before sending them over, if at all. The optics of senate trial during Trump's campaign  should look very good for the Democrats early next fall.

It has been explained to you and your lot over and over and over again: she won the popular vote by over 3 Million!

No poll, whatsoever, can predict the outcome of that "thing", that you have over there, called the electoral college, where a bunch of rednecks decides the fate of the rest of the country!
 

You mean slave owners, don't you?

Without enforcement on the roads, anything they do won’t change anything. Just a waist of time.

Thais already put a "spoon full of sugar" in everything, and it's not helping the "medicine go down".

Last week I did my Non-O retirement extension using the 65000 baht per month method In Samut Prakan and the Immigration Officer only wanted to see some kind of official proof of where my money came from and how much per month it was. He couldn't be bothered with looking at my bank letter or passbook with documentation of my monthly transfers.

Wouldn't golf balls feel better?

In "high speed train" parlance, is forty five minutes considered "short time or long time?

Thai politics would make great material for comedians...????

Doesn't it have to be somewhat believable for comedy to work?

This same exhibition was at the Rain City Science Center, three years ago was it (?) Yep must have been three years ago. I stopped by cause I was back home on vacation and staying in walking distance. Ok for what it is, but after visiting I do not know if I would make the effort to see it if it was more than walking distance.

 

Oh, it was much more expensive than 200 Baht so that is a deal, even if it leads to the painful effects of mental constipation due to dual pricing in your brain pain.    Suck it up.

 

 

 

 

 

Is there any correlation between “mental constpation” and “verbal diarrhea”?

Thailand, "and accident waiting to happen"!

Interesting, I wasn’t aware of the airline restriction.

 

There is a plan to introduce ID style cards to expats which will include their visa status etc. No idea when that’ll happen as it’s been talked about for ages, but IMO it would be a better option than the pink ID card that isn’t really meant for expat use.

My Thai drivers license uses my passport number has the license ID number. Renewed in 2018.

What is the earliest date you can file for a retirement visa one year extension?

Why bother, will you need to visit immigration up there or will somebody report your father in law to the authorities. If I go to the wife's village in Bahn Khee Kwai I have no intention of doing a TM30 there, nor when I return, as immigration will know nothing of it. 

Until you get stopped at a police shakedown in another province.

They should have taken "Walking Street" to get to Pattaya.

Not often I agree with anything that man has to say, but I believe the automatic right to citizenship because a baby was born inside the border has little relevance in this day of mass travel and border hopping.

 

Australia changed it's citizenship act about 1986 to state babies born there get the same status as their parents. If both parents are illegal, baby is too. If just one parent has PR, baby is a citizen.

This came about because increasing numbers of pregnant woman, from many countries, were flying in to give birth to an Australian. Hong Kong residents were forefront in the scheme at the time because many saw this as a backup in case the return to China went bad.(!) 

Prophetic.
