Here We Go, AGAIN!

Did Bush ever apologize?

Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton are far from perfect but I don’t think they expected it to be exploited into a twenty year war. What is unforgivable is that we learned nothing from it. Basing our foreign policy on the needs of big oil and the financial needs of the defense contractors is disgusting and nearly as anti-American as Trump and his Bircher buddies.

My friend lost his son in that mess.

They did a fabulous job. Usually, no one does Pink Floyd well. I am planning to do 60 well. We shall see.

The Cynical Charade of “Pro-Life” Politicians

The vast majority of women see abortion as a choice of desperation. Mich of that desperation could be avoided, but many of the ones that squawk the loudest are the same ones that do nothing to change the situation.

No clue, and no they can’t seem to do anything about miscarriages, other than attempt to assign blame, which is beyond cruel.

I don’t doubt their existence, as I’ve had my share of back and forth with them over the years. Whether they’re actually women or even human , is another matter.

I couldn’t agree more. We all had the opportunity to vote for a well qualified, thoughtful, intelligent candidate. Most Americans did. At least 3 million more Americans, did just that, by voting for Hillary. I am still not convinced that he won the votes they said thar he did.

Water under the bridge, jt wasn’t enough. It remains unclear what “enough,” would have been, “enough.” Sometimes, “enough,” keeos me up at night . As for the corporate pig bunch, i can only assume they only recently slithered out from under some God forsaken baseboard as I heard nothing from them in the previous three elections that I have been online.

I am referring to the movement as they define it. I consider myself pro-life, as i also support the living and the breathing. I am sure those in their movement would disagree.

Pro-life is a lie, they don’t care to support the living, only the unborn. If anyone doubts me, all they have to do is take a gander at the border and the orphans the sane bunch of “pro-life” {sic} neo-cons have purposely created.

There are times, when it endangers a woman or her living children. No paid maternity leave, exorbitant child care costs…… I couldn’t blame a wonan for terminating her pregnancy A child of rape ot a young unprepared girl. It isn’t a choice made lightly, but it must exist for so many reasons.

Some or most of these obstacles could be removed, but it seems that some are more invested in punishing the woman as well as her children, for daring to have sex, consensual or not.

It seems to me, that adlib is being specific about the right wing POV of those who feel entitled to restrict the reproductive rights of American women..

Do we not have the right to judge those who feel entitled to make such personal decisions for others, without representation or consideration?

Much of this is framed as a love of life, but it is not. The right has done everything possible to shred the social safety net. This is a direct hit to a single parent, especially when they are paid 80 cents on the dollar. There is a lack of affordable housing snd a lack of paid maternity leave. The much maligned Planned Patenthood provides low / no cost pre-natal care, or can help women to locate local programs. They also offer access to birth control and reality based sex ed. Why would those who hate abortion, be so unsupportive of those they would force to carry a pregnancy to term?

It becomes clear that life is not a blessing, but a weapon to punish a woman for what the right perceives as promiscuity. They care not about the woman, the child is but a weapon.

I Want The Next President To Be Like Our Best Presidents: 5 Key Lessons

I like how you choose. I do pay attention issues, but we can’t see the future. I want someone, that is presidential, who won’t insult my intelligence. I want them to make a positive impression with our allies. Pragmatism, makes the world go ’round, because most things are not black and white. I want someone who is more passionate about the state of the average American than they are their friends and cronies. I want someone that will value in the truth. Someone who is driven to make America better, not driven to remove existing civil rights. It may sound odd, but a solid sense of humor denotes intelligence. No bullies. No childish what bouters, no whiners, no more Trump.

Seven Reasons Why Democrats Should Impeach Donald Trump

I agree. Barr can be impeached and even prosecuted. I am not too thrilled with Rosenstein, either. I would prefer to expand that FBI investigation and find out why the FBI supported that Benghazi crap after it became clear, there was little to investigate. Maybe we could find out why it’s okay for team Trump to use their private email in the same way Hillary did.

I would like to know why Gowdy was allowed to maintain his seat on the Ethics Committee after he tampered with evidence.

I would love to know how mich Russian money McConnell continues to take. Trump is not the only problem, by a long shot. He has not done any of this alone.

I have opposed impeachment, for many of the reasons that Pelosi has mentioned. To put it simply, Trump completely expects the Senate to acquit him of all charges. Once acquitted, I am sure he will call himself a victim of angry Democrats. It is hard to forget the indignant rhetoric of the right for the three and a half weeks between Barr’s non summary and the release of the redacted version of Mueller’s report. People tend to believe what they want, if presented with a choice.

Never the less, with each stone uncovered another crime / manipulation / twisted betrayal to American values is revealed. Unlike Bill Clinton or even Richard Nixon; Trump has chosen to use the investigation as an excuse to not do his job. Any suffering for lack of proper governance to be blamed on Democrats.

Enough is Enough. He must be impeached and the Senate Republicans who continue to support his behavior must be forced to be held respnsible their own complicity.

In a perfect world, Nancy Pelosi would get her way and he would be doing prison time. Sadly, it is not a perfect world.

I have been against impeachment, much for the same reasons that Pelosi has been against it. I understand what she is saying about how he has been trying to “goad,” the Democrats into it. I still think that’s true, but maybe we should just give him what he wants before he burns the place down.

I have trouble getting enthusiastic about anything unless it gets him out of the White House and I do not relish the thought of Mike Pence taking his place.

Congress has to do their job, it would be irresponsible for them not to impeach. I have no doubt that they would the vote in the House. As far as the Senate, it is something to be laid at their feet and I hope that it is. He isn’t Bill Clinton, nor is he even Richard Nixon; they both had enough respect for the office to continue to do their jobs.

Trump has never done his job. I don’t think he even knows what his job is and if he did, I’m sure it wouldn’t suit him.
