You got it wrong, as usual, Kearon. Leave the state out of your adversarial relationship with business. Rather, it's an adversarial relationship between the Republican Party and business; excluding Big Oil. No other business is getting special treatment. | 0 | not toxic |
Not sure how I feel about this. Sure, Trump has ended the convention of politics stopping at the water's edge to the detriment of our nation, not sure that makes it acceptable for others to stoop to his level. | 0 | not toxic |
"Recovers as an effective governing force"? Was Trump ever an effective governing force or did I miss something? Trump is an effective looter and his party represents the looting class--the super rich. I confess, it's nice to see the Republicans spreading their hate-filled, dysfunctional political agenda around to more segments of society than just women and people of color. Now everyone with a functioning brain can see the Republican party for what it has really always stood for--greed, war, misogyny, violence, religious fanaticism, racism and naked stupidity. Trump and the Republicans will put Americans' gag reflex to the test. Then again, maybe Americans will finally figure their situation out before it's too late and Republicans murder their democracy. Or they won't. Democracy will survive in other more enlightened societies which is good to know. | 0 | not toxic |
St. Michael was mentioned in the Confitior and several other prayers. No longer. As for Constantinople, when the Emperor moved the Imperial capital, the See of Peter moved as well.

The only way our wonderful State of Alaska will not become another broke state like so many in the lower 48, is to replace 75% of whom we have in office now. Let's quit voting for the losers that have the most money, the ones who have the biggest donaters , they are the ones who are owned by the donaters. Time is running out, If we don't elect the correct ones into office soon, time will run out. This is reality people.

There is nobody who'd like to see the loathsome Trump out of the White House more than me, but being an incompetent, narcissistic bigot isn't a "high crime or misdemeanor."
I wouldn't be surprised if Trump has indeed committed impeachable offenses, and if so I hope they come to light sooner rather than later. (When the Russia investigation is finally concluded, I expect there to plenty of "there" there.) But, until that happens, we have to wait.
Removing people from office because they're offensive is a very slippery slope and would be a disastrous precedent for the nation. Sorry, Mario. I agree that Trump's "lack of moral leadership and his own racism and hatred disqualify him from being president." Sadly, that isn't a sound Constitutional argument for impeachment. | 1 | toxic |

If you're a fan of one leader over the other, you have to reconcile how it's good for one to do shut down government but bad for the other.
It's more likely that politics is hard and these leaders are fallible humans who don't know how else to get their bills through. | 0 | not toxic |
My preference would be for leaders to be chosen by MPs in caucus. That gets rid of people like O'Leary who don't want to bother running in an election and having to chat with real people. (I like O'Leary as a media commentator though.)
My second choice is for the old style delegated convention where each riding sends a specific number of delegates. But my preference is that all of the delegates be the executive of the local associations, the people who actually do the work and know the candidates best. I never liked that winner-take-all delegate system where an entire slate could be elected that was unrepresentative of the local association volunteers.
The worst way to elect party leaders is one-member-one-vote, which usually results in a leader who doesn't know where 90% of the country is. | 0 | not toxic |
Hefner was very in tune with what was happening regarding the changing attitudes towards sex. But thank him? These changes would have happened with or without Hefner.

Why is it 'idiotic' to put your own nations interest first? If it benefits America it actually ends up benefiting the world. Putting America under some European 'accord' is a return to the days when America was a one of many European colonies. I for one do not want the benevolent dictatorship "old" Europe has to offer.

No legal means of annulling the present administration comes to mind. I don't think one exists. Other possibilities include a revolt by the screaming memes of the left. That would likely result in a counter revolt by the screaming memes of the right. Then we'd have a civil war on our hands. (The left would lose because the right has more guns.)
So until the election of 2020, just hunker down, organize, strategize, campaign, fatten your coffers, and give priority above all else to finding a really suitable candidate rather than the scum sucking, bottom feeders who ran last time. | 1 | toxic |

About 15-20% if all pregnancies in the US end in miscarriages (spontaneous abortions) and are defined as a loss of the pregnancy before the 20th week. There are about 4.4 million confirmed pregnancies in the US every year. About 500,000 end in miscarriage, 26,000 end in still birth, 19,000 end in death after the first month of life and 39,000 die in the first year of life. 1 in 4 ( some stats show 1 in 3) pregnancies end in miscarriage and estimates that over 40% of pregnancies end in loss. Why do you leave this "gauntlet" out of pregnancy that show clearly that at least a million pregnancies a year in the US will never make it to term and some that do the baby dies shortly after birth or in the first year of life. I had 3 miscarriages myself in the early months. I wanted my zygotes and nature ( God) wiped them out of the only home they had ever known inside my body, so why is that? Childbirth is a natural occurrence but also childbirth often ends without a child. | 0 | not toxic |
Well put Dr.Hanson.
I urge all Americans to look into the ETHICS RULES of their own state Legislature - the Ak Legislatures's sham rules are offensive to anyone who becomes aware of them. Legislative bodies i.e. Senate, House, are closed societies trusted to appropriately self-regulate, but as per human nature their "regulating" has overwhelmingly been to avoid rules of common sense decency, to make what for others would be criminal acts-legal for members of their "elite Aristocracy" of lawmakers. | 0 | not toxic |
“Amazing how it falls under ‘academic freedom’ when a black (woman) spews this extreme bigotry yet everyone knows if a straight white male said anything close to that they would be rightfully fired.” There are many who would agree with this statement. I wonder if perhaps some individuals with a PhD go into other fields that earn more money. Perhaps that is why the statistics are what they are. Maybe it's also partially a result of the preponderance of older Caucasians living in the U.S. and in a generation, the census mix and make-up of professors will be different. Totally agree with Keala's comment that there would be more value in looking at character and not skin color. | 0 | not toxic |

Bob didn't mention that the Peshtigo fire was started by logging operations and burned hot and heavy, like Oregon's great Tillamook fire, through thousands of cutover acres filled with logging slash. I've viewed dozens of wildfire burns and seen lots of clearcuts filled with slash, brush, and densely planted reprod that burned faster and hotter than adjacent unlogged forests . The problem is that clearcuts don't stay bare soil very long!
When I first went to work in the forests, old timers I worked around had a saying: "If you want to put a fire out, run it up into the woods" My cabin in Southern Oregon resisted the huge Biscuit blaze because I maintained a bare soil perimeter and kept the interior acres brush and sapling free, shaded by big overhead trees that nearly all survived.
In North California, shaded and maintained fuel breaks along logging roads and highways have often been successful except in fire storms. When forest fires become fire storms, all organics are consumed! | 0 | not toxic |

One interesting "actual fact", IJHB: in many residential schools, the death rate among "students" (or inmates, or victims, if you prefer) was as high as 50%.
Sez who?
Dr. Peter Bryce, Medical Inspector, Dept. of the Interior and Indian Affairs. He made a special inspection of 35 schools in the prairie provinces in 1907. The experience shocked him. Newspaper articles appeared. In 1922, Bryce retired and wrote a book: The Story of a National Crime; Being a Record of the Health Conditions of the Indians of Canada from 1904 to 1921.
Many of the deaths were due to TB. Bryce found on more than one occasion, that infected kids were mingled with uninfected, healthy kids. Many survivors (which means, of school life in the 1940s-1970s, told of experiences similar to what Bryce had found, decades before. Many of the healthy kids were scared to death--they felt it was a DELIBERATE strategy. Said one: "they wanted us dead."

This was not a murder conviction as understood anywhere except the bizarre and twisted US military commission tribunal in Guantanamo.
It was years later the US invented a crime that did not exist heretofore and exists nowhere else in civil criminal, military or international law . We have laws prohibiting convictions 'ex post facto' crimes - see the Charter at S. 11(g) as does the US (clause 3 of Article I, Section 9 of the US Constitution) and it is the basis under which a number of Gitmo convictions have already been overturned. Khadr's appeal has yet to be heard as the US is using every preocedural delay.
After the Military Commissions Act of 2006 was signed in October 2006, new charges were sworn against Khadr on February 2, 2007. He was charged with Murder in Violation of the Law of War - a wholly US invented crime that did not exist before 2006 and is not recognized anywhere else in the world.

Why would there be a fight if Trump fired Cordray?
The Second Circuit Court of Appeals has already ruled that the section of the authorizing legislation that held that the Director of the CPFB could only be fired by Congress was unconstitutional.
The court held that the CPFB is a board under the aegis of the Executive Branch, and the President has the absolute right to fire or request the resignation of any Executive Branch employee that requires Senate confirmation.
Cordray is no different than Comey...He serves at the pleasure of the President. | 0 | not toxic |

First of all, the death rate of patients is 100%, they all die eventually. Despite the best intervention of any MD, people will smoke , drink eat the wrong stuff and pursue dangerous activities. There is no regulation on how the people run their lives.
Number of investigations ordered? A double edged sword as I find we are cancelling surgeries as bloodwork has been avoided and things are out of control when they get here and are cancelled.
Adverse events? Is poor compliance part of that or plain luck, we have more people taking more complex medications for more complex disease that ever before, and yes there are adverse effects but death is being delayed and people are choosing to live with the effects.

Quote the article:
"One-half of the dream is coming true. In the first two states to go legal, arrests for marijuana possession have dropped dramatically—by 98 percent in Washington and 95 percent in Colorado as of last year—and high taxes in both states are generating tens of millions of dollars a year for education and public health. At the same time, legal markets in Washington and Colorado along with loosening medical-marijuana laws around the country have together exerted enough downward pressure on street prices that Central American cartels have reportedly begun to shift production away from marijuana, toward more profitable drugs like heroin."
Legalize heroin, shut them down.
I used to feel as you do, over the years I've come to feel that Saudi Arabia outlawing alcohol and us outlawing heroin are the same limitations of freedom.
Please check out the book, it was a week long punch in the gut for me.

I've become convinced that the "universality" of catholic, is the universality of Jesus, of redemption and message within humankind- past, to come and now, entwined. If that's a "wishful dream" that God hates, then I pray for personal mercy and enlightenment.
For 10 years after retirement, I lived in a rural parish that encompassed the geographical "village"; community council; the "jurisdiction" of the volunteer fire department; the former school district; the former single general store, gas station, etc. The relative isolation, the sole church, and general good will meant that Protestants attended mass. See where I'm going? Real community is a multi-dimensional interlace of interactive dependencies that is willingly accepted and enjoined.
Institutionally, it seems the RC has in fact created a single level dependency, "ontologically" distinct based on willing submission. Showings of wider "community" seem to be futile play-acting: the wishful dream that God, um...doesn't like. | 0 | not toxic |
