I would say you must not be able to read at all; or at least not read and comprehend, if that's what you deduced from my post.
Do you post this when you see a restaurant recommendation thread?
Nevermind Amy I'm drunk and tired. Nice chatting with you. Maybe one day us Americans can once again find some middle ground. Good night and go tigers
Ain't about being a white knight. It's about calling out douchers that think they are right.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion. I respect opinions. Not little kid name calling shit.
Noticed you didn't post in the Piriformus Syndrome thread and ask why it was here on gameday.
How so? Does the govt pay for abortions or abortion services? I think the answer is no. I am sure you are going to say well planned parenthood, but the govt is paying for pap smears and gyno exams and birth control exams in those cases, not abortions.
I dont think any conservative or liberal gets it in regards to court packing: When the judiciary is seen as a partisan body, the ENTIRE COUNTRY LOSES.
Middle ground? Neither side wants that. Neither will be happy till every single person of the other political stripe is exported to a different country.
Sure thing, I thought we might have been close to an honest conversation but obviously not. Rather than arguing with you over tax payer subsidies, perhaps we can discuss the profit margins a company like PP has thanks largely to Federal funds.

I wonder how many adoptions the annual profit of tens to hundreds of millions of dollars would fund?

At $40k per, an additional 1470 young children who need homes could have been adopted into loving nurturing environments in 2014, a relatively down year compared to the over 3k kids who could have been helped in 2013.
Fyp
You are too ignorant for me to waste my time trying at have a conversation.....
I think both sides want it, but not the loud minority. I mean, some of the most visible folks on the left are the lunatics screaming at senators in restaurants or actual representatives in Congress encouraging such behavior. Or to a lesser extent, lawmakers with legitimately socialist platform leanings.
Now I don’t think that represents how most democrats feel, but goodness if it doesn’t scare the folks on the other side of the aisle and restrict reasonable dialogue.
Trump won! Hillury lost!!! MAGA!!!!!!!
Conservative Christian Voter in the house!!!!!!!!!!

Please tell me that you don’t consider yourself anywhere near the middle. Your claim that Dr Ford was paid by the Democrats to make up a sexual assault story (and subsequently expose her family to death threats for the rest of her their lives) disqualifies you from the middle.
Remember, for every action there is a reaction. People like you and @amynhop who treat politics like a team sport are the biggest part of the problem. Your constant antagonizing behavior to the left ( and Trump’s) is what is giving rise to the socialist arm of the Democratic Party. That sucks for people like me, cause I can’t vote for Bernie (I have no interest in paying 70% tax rate) and i sure as shit cannot vote for pussy grabber.”, draft dodger, pow shitter on, tax evading trump.
I am a Conservative because I identify with their platform and the direction I want this country headed. Can't think of anything I agree with from the left. The left is who is always complaining and bitching. It's like you hate America. If I don't agree with you .... then I'm a racist. i.e. See moonspiders ridiculous , ignorant post above. You yourself, said I have made racist post on this board a couple of days ago. And you and I both know that's an outright lie. I asked you to link a racist post of mine. Of course, you couldn't. You made an immature reply with a meme. Liberals.... the supposed party of tolerance. ( what a freaking joke) In actuality....the most intolerant group on the planet.
I didn’t say she was paid. I don’t know what the real story is, but I don’t believe BK attacked her. And I definitely believe that the Democrats made this a partisan shit show.
As far as being near the middle, I’m definitely there on social issues, but am right of center for sure on fiscal issues.
Trump wasn’t my first choice and I would prefer a president without his baggage, but I’m very happy so far with his results. Lower taxes, roaring economy, soaring stock market, dramatic shift in ISIS’ trajectory from the Obama admin, record unemployment, etc etc.
Liberalism is truly a mental disorder and cancer to the world. It’s also morphing into a Nazi mind set. Think like we do, or else we’ll try and destroy you.
Roe v. Wade is the shiny coin being waved to get everyone’s attention. The more pressing issue is a case coming up for decision this month that could expand the powers of the presidential pardon. That’s why there is the rush to get Kavanaugh confirmed.
If this decision goes along party lines, individuals who are pardoned by the president can no longer be charged at the state level, completely hamstringing state DAs. That essentially means Trump can pardon anyone he wants without further retribution.
Planned parenthood did 2.7 million services for birth control last year and over 4 million STD tests. They do a lot of very good things other than abortion. As for their "profits", their President's pay is right in line with other charities of similar size and the charity is intentionally building its fund balance using fundraising, not excess federal funds, to help protect access to services if or when states attempt to cut off funding. Likewise, it is using some of its fund balance to invest in technology to help deliver birth control methods that are longer lasting. The profits are not given to shareholders or to just five or six highly paid executives. In fact, I believe that their President made less than Franklin Graham did in either 2015 or 2016.
I don’t think you are a racist because you are conservative, I think you are a racist b/c you are a racist. Your allegiance to pitchfork Ben and your complete denial that any black man has been shot unjustly by a policeman are what I base that opinion on. You are a person I have very little respect for, and I don’t say that to be mean, it is just my opinion. I am sure if I met you in person I might think differently, but not here. I think you care more about “sticking it the libs” than you do working together to make the country a better place. I think you base your arguments on totally black and white, extreme thinking And get your news from Facebook memes, which to me is the sign of a very unintelligent person. I really don’t like saying this stuff to you, which is why I responded with a meme instead the other day.
Do you support vouchers to help poor pregnant women obtain access to vitamins and doctors so that their babies will be born healthy? That comes from the left. How about short term unemployment insurance? That is a left thing. What about clean drinking water? Yep. Clean air - yep, left. Do you realize our air and waters are far cleaner than they were in the 1950s? Is that good? I would say so - Be thankful to the left for that. One day you might be able to eat a lot of fish out of Hartwell again thanks to the left.
The republicans refusal to have hearings on Garland was also a partisan shit show. Dot pretend that crap only goes one way. I am willing to concede on Dr Ford vs Kavanaugh, it ended up being a he said / she said. You cannot convict someone on that. He absolutely perjured himself though (Devil’s Triangle ain’t a game of quarters, among other lies). I also think him confalling democratic senators with the media and Avenatti makes him too partisan to be a judge.
Economy is going well, but I think you are giving trump far too much credit for that. The stock market is not a true indicator of economic success, which I suspect you know. We are also spending a trillion plus on the interest payments on our debt to pay for tax cuts that have not significantly benefited the middle class. No plans in sight to change that.
I think you come across as a pompous, arrogant, individual who I have little respect for on this board. Hell, you even posted you are from the South but prefer to act like you're a New Yorker with your handle. I don't say these things to be mean, but it's just my opinion. I think you regurgitate your typical liberal propaganda, which to me is the sign of an unintelligent person. And I really don't like saying this stuff to you but........
You know.... you tagged me a few times in another thread ( don't remember which ) saying I wouldn't reply to you and I took the time and posted a thoughtful reply. Of which, you never even acknowledged you saw.
FYI - I don't eat fish.
It should be noted that both RBG and Thomas believed the separate sovereigns doctrine needed to be reviewed, which is why the court took Gamble vs US.
It is possible Kavanaugh could be the deciding vote, but it’s also entirely possible that the vote was going to go that way anyway.
Done. Allah smiles on you this day. Assalamualaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu
Dude, no where in the Bible does it say you elect a Pastor in Chief. If you want to compare and contrast Hillary vs Trump, would you argue the same way? “You can’t be a Christian if you voted for Hillary?” Insanity.
Some people forget a lot of Christians voted more so to keep a liberal out of the Whitehouse and to keep more liberal judges off the Supreme Court. Too many times you have to cast a vote for the lesser of two evils which is a shame. I cant speak for everyone but as a Christian who voted for Trump, I know I am a sinner as is everyone else. Once I took that out of the equation and looked at the liberal vs conservative platforms, it was really a no brainer for me. I had a lot of reservations about voting for Trump but I felt voting for a third party candidate was essentially throwing my vote away. It's kind of like when the Gamecocks play...I am strictly a Clemson fan and was raised a Clemson fan but I will also show support for anyone else who plays the Gamecocks. I dont give a rat's behind about Mizzou, but I was cheering for them yesterday.
