I think it's pretty hard to have confidence in a leader that makes such a tremendous and totally avoidable mistake. She called the election to 'get a stronger hand' in Brexit negotiations and they lost the majority, if she can't win now how can you have confidence in the future? |

I don't think Flynn did anything wrong in regards to the Russia investigation; I feel like he was a victim of deep state saboteurs that illegally spied on him and misrepresented a routine meeting as something insidious when he was just doing his job so no I wouldn't have a problem with Trump preempt... |

I wouldn't automatically assume wrongdoing in either case. Bill and Lynch each suffered damage to their reputations from that incident, but no one has alleged any wrongdoing. I don't like the appearance of impropriety, though. It probably soured people on the Clinton campaign by providing fuel for ... |

McCain's point about there being a double standard makes sense when you remove his weird old man rambling. How Comey handled and downplayed the Clinton investigation compared to what he's done with non-investigation of Trump is clear as day, if routine meetings between US Senators and the incoming a... |

The US doesn't have the real Sharia issues like Europe does and hopefully we're not stupid enough to ever allow it to happen so I don't really see why 'banning' Sharia law is so controversial. These same people crying about this probably want to ban the 10 Commandments, prayer in school, and tax ch... |

It's a similar argument used against making English the official language here in the US. Linguistic separatism I think is a real worry, US needs to do more to ensure a harmonious society with assimilation and actually protect the basic tenets of culture. |

And in this case apparently a profession. Jacoby will of course be immediately banned for being paid by the Russian government to troll Wrong Planet. This is monumental. I'd expect the media would want to write a story about a Russian government paid employee troll planted on an autism forum. One o... |

And beat Elizabeth Warren? No way, that idea is simply ludicrous especially since their is likely to be a democratic surge next year. Unlikely in the senate, Republicans will likely gain seats there just by the fact Dems are defending like 23 seats to 10. Also they're talking about Romney running i... |

I don't believe for a second that you honestly think Russia has had a plant in this obscure low traffic forum for nearly a decade. I'm not discounting the possibility. Obviously, this forum alone wouldn't be his or her only gig. The Russian trolls are raising mayhem all over the internet, and an in... |

I don't think realistic looking guns are an appropriate toy because of the danger of somebody thinking it is real but kids are going to make toy weapons out of anything. That is just the nature of how little boys play, me and my brother use to have fights with beanie babies so it really can be anyth... |

I think it's specific to the individual, to me it is a crippling disability and don't see much if any value in it. I'd much rather be 'normal' and social than autistic and alone. |

The FBI has not cleared Flynn. They just found nothing criminal in the intercepted calls and probably won't charge him for lying to them. Also, there's already a thread about Comey's testimony in this section. Re: Failed supply side economics, see Kansas. What happened to innocent until proven guil... |

Alex could update the decrepit forum software too, just sayin'. If he asked for donations I doubt he'd even have to pay for it. |
