    Hilarious.

    Go ahead the think that, that "trump" is a shoo in.

    That's playing perfectly into the hands of the majority of decent Americans that want to kick out that ridiculous and damaging demagogue. 

    He's certainly not a shoe-in but the Dems need to modify some of their policies if they are to win. At the moment they are competing to see who is the crazier - health care for illegals?  madness!

    Ethnicity not a factor in Elizabeth Warren’s rise in law

    "In the most exhaustive review undertaken of Elizabeth Warren’s professional history, the Globe found clear evidence, in documents and interviews, that her claim to Native American ethnicity was never considered by the Harvard Law faculty, which voted resoundingly to hire her, or by those who hired her to four prior positions at other law schools. At every step of her remarkable rise in the legal profession, the people responsible for hiring her saw her as a white woman.

    The Globe examined hundreds of documents, many of them never before available, and reached out to all 52 of the law professors who are still living and were eligible to be in that Pound Hall room at Harvard Law School."

    You miss the point. It's unconscious, like name dropping, no records but it influences. NVM I know it's hard to overcome your confirmation bias and you really believe she just 'mentioned it' for no 'particular reason' lol.

    Hmmm, on another approach ... if I were to be faced with a disabling or terminal illness? If I arrived at the decision that continued life was not worth it? Can I count on your deciding that I don't have the right to end my life? I am thinking you might well condemn my action as immature?

    To be fair that is an entirely different scenario. Suicide due to a job transfer is OTT and a permanent solution to a temporary issue (he could bounce back later, didn't lose salary, still a Police Capt etc.). How many ordinary, non-officer, Policemen get shunted around?  It was time to curse the senior, suck it up, plan for ways to get ahead not blow your brains out.

    Read the section I suggested, if you can understand it you'll get your answer.

    You will always find an excuse to confirm your world view. Confirmation bias is a sticky thing and we all know your politics.

    I will give you one point. Of course Russia meddled a bit in the elections just as the good 'Ole USA does daily. In fact the US meddles, starts wars and generally interferes far more than Russia does - but you don't like this fact. The Dems bleat over minor stuff and whitewash their own side doing the same thing.  I condom it all, not that it matters as the world is a rough and unfair place.

  5. Concerning these 72 'virgins' what if you are gay? (not me but some are). What about if you are a girl?  72 guys who don't know how to do it?

    On a more serious note chemicals are released upon death as nature eases us into that night. Having said that I do believe we 'go on'.

    For the record, God, I don't want to see my Mum as she abandoned me when a baby and seeing her would be a Hell not heaven, thank you.

    Given Trump's claims that the investigation  exonerates him, this could all have been over months ago.

     

    All Trump had to do was not block people giving testimony and sign and executive order for the publication of the full, unreacted report. 

     

    Oddly, he has chosen to do everything he can to prevent Congress obtaining the testimony that he tells us will clear his name. 

    Any charges? I mean on the report not other peripheral stuff?  Dems loved Muller now they want to chuck him under the bus, same Comey.  This is the way to unseat megalomaniac Trump?  I don't think so.
