It depends on what the meaning of 'is' is.

What's a "conservative"?

What's a "proposal"?

What's the definition of "what?"

Believe what you want....if you think that was an official policy position of the Republican party thats your perogative, but in my view its just fake news and spin


Fact checkers judged this statement to be half true....if you want to hang your hat on half truths, well thats on you,



If I went back and looked at every think thank that ever advised the Democratic Party Im sure I could find some very interesting suggestions that never saw the light of day in any meaningful way

Maybe a good way to start squaring this endless circle is with some agreeable definitions.

What is a half truth?

What is fake news?

If it is a half truth that my wife had an affair - would I consider it to be fake news?

Well according to Bill Clinton if your wife performed oral sex on a man only SHE would be considered to have engaged in sexual relations. On the other hand if the man performed oral sex on your wife only HE would have engaged in sexual relations

If Bill Clinton is still fair game in these discussions then it seems only fair that we can devote a few pages to the antics of Richard Nixon. What say you, Whitey?

Why would I care......I'm a registered Independent

(And btw.....I didn't see Richard Nixon on the campaign trail last year either)

It sure changed the lives of those who have died because of a useless, hateful piece of diplomacy. Trump's attempts to bully the UN mimics the sort of shít his mate Putin engages in. The sooner this fool is a footnote in history the better.

Just like the NRA owns most politicians in the US, so too do the Israeli lobby AIPAC.

They have bought and owned practically all those in power in the US, and despite what the world thinks, they back Israel to the hilt.

Cynthia McKinney told the truth about Israel and it cost her dearly. It finished her political career.

Jell 0 Biafra

In fairness, her da's comments and some other stuff might have had more to do with it:

Other factors in her defeat were her controversial statements regarding Bush's involvement in 9/11,[22][30] her opposition to aid to Israel, a perceived support of Palestinian and Arab causes, and alleged antisemitism by her supporters.[31][32][33][34] and on the night before the primary election, McKinney's father stated on Atlanta television that "Jews have bought everybody ... J-E-W-S."

If you were losing money in stocks during the Obama presidency then either you're telling lies or you're a very bad investor.



How did your portfolio do under Dubya? Did you somehow do the opposite of what the market was doing then too?
