I'm Jewish, and I believe that this deal is better for the safety of Israel in the long run than no deal at all. To disagree with that opinion is fine, but to deem it self-hating is just stupid.

If you read my reply to Torie well, then you will find that I actually haven't deemed that self-hating.

Do you actually believe that Al Franken doesn't care about/is seeking to undermine Israel's safety?

1. The war in Iraq was a mission to overthrow a dictator who had the blood of 2 million innocents on his hands, a regime that raped regularly, and a regime that had political prisoners. Saddam Hussein had the capacity to create WMD, he had WMD that he sent into Syria right before our arrival, and he kicked out weapons inspectors and mislead inspectors before that.

2. The Patriot Act is not overreach, it simply makes it easier for law enforcement to obtain warrants, it increases their ability to do "sneak and peek" searches, and it enables law enforcement to communicate with one another.

3. The international community gave Israel to the Israelis in 1948. The Palestinians, who by the way are just people who wandered into Israel as there are no real Palestinians, have committed atrocities against innocent people and have committed acts of war. Israel has spent it's entire existence defending itsself from a phony people who seek to invade their land, and unfortunately, many in this world refuse to acknowledge the FACT that Israel has the right to 100% of the land that was given to them by the Europeans in 1948.

4. The Russian reset is a known failure, no one disputes that.

5. Waterboarding is not torture, it is an enhanced interrogation technique that is rarely used, it is effective.

there's nothing wrong w/ Wulfric's comment there, imo.

Well then, thanks for cutting out the middle man by posting directly into this thread.

I've had it with lesser of 2 evils. You know, the lesser of 2 evils won the 1932 German Presidential election....

This thread needs a re-name now that people have forgotten/don't know Bobloblaw. It doesn't have to be  named after anyone.

The SteveMcQueen Theatre?

I mean, he's not wrong. School uniforms are ridiculous. But an executive order?

I'm more concerned with the equating of gender identity expression to clothing expression.

I don't even know why the thread is named for Lyin Steve anyway.  What did I miss?

Seriously? or bronz is undoubtedly more deserving of the title for this thread.

I used to ridicule Bernie and his childish supporters (e.g. those at the convention) before he dropped out.  Now I ridicule Trump and it doesn't hurt as many people's feelings.

If you're still curious, I summarized it all in great detail in what I promised would be my final Bernie-bashing post.  Which is sad, because I'd love to make a troll thread to see how many former Bernie supporters I could get to pledge never to support a candidate who refused to release his tax returns.  But I keep my promises.

Though some of the ridicule was exaggerated, a lot of it was valid and some of us reacted pretty negatively since it was directed at our candidate. I was one of those people, and it took Trump becoming the nominee for me to see that a lot of those media narratives, double standards, and attacks were unjustified and unfair.

when Lehman went bankrupt and the world was in panic, McCain acted like an unstable old man by suspending his campaign so he can return to DC to work on the problem.  Of course, McCain knows very little about the economy and added no value when he went back to DC.  In contrast, Obama exuded a sense of calm leadership, even temperament, and good judgment.  It of course did not hurt that Obama decisively won all 3 debates against the old mumbling McCain.  If it weren't for those grievous errors, McCain's margin of defeat would have been more like 3-4 points nationally rather than 7.2 points.  And he would have won IN, NC, FL, NE 02, and the GOP would have done better in the congressional races as well.

Wrong thread.
No, right thread.  I though McCain was smart to put the country ahead of politics after the financial crisis.  I get tired of the hyper-partisanship of this post, which basically says that Obama was nothing but good and McCain was nothing but bad.

This isn't a place to post things you politically disagree with. That alone is not what makes a post bad.

i don't care if Clinton is cold, angry, half-dead, whatever. I don't want someone for President who is not only completely ignorant of what it takes to be President, but doesn't even care to learn.

Translation: I care when the other party's candidate is mean, but not mine.  What does Trump have to learn?  Translation: You can't stand that Trump isn't brainwashed by liberal academics.  You are telling us all with your post what a hypocrite you are.  You care only about criticizing Trump's health now because you're afraid it will cost your party votes if Clinton is seen in bad health. Half-dead is ok?  I don't see us having a fully dead president but I thought dead meant dead.  I've never heard of half or full or anything like that.  What percentage of alive/dead is each person?  Ah topic is Clinton is in bad health and Democrats are freaking out over it.

I mean jesus christ this person is already aiming for the title of this thread.

He's almost certainly a sock or something, and already has 90 posts in the last two days.
