Well they faced incredible opposition from the right. Such major legislation takes time. Then dems got busy, had other priorities and didn’t vote well in 1994. Republicans took over. And they killed the act. Obama care is awesome. It’s currently half the cost of Cobra.

Actually gun manufacturers will be sad! Ironically, gun sales go way up during democratic regimes; down during republican terms.

? What were the “weak half measures”?

Well it’s just an absurd claim. Imagine a country under attack, fighting for its lives; but hey here comes another merchant ship from our enemy; shoot we’d better let it through; our boys are fighting bravely and dying; but hey we need the long term comparative trade; it’s a win win! That’s just...

Yep, very correct. I think that 10.7 directly happened in order to stop the normalization between Israel and the other Arab countries.

oh boy! I'm catching up to you. My oldest is graduating in two weeks. Definitely feel old walking around her campus! It would be very disappointing for us if her commencement is cancelled (doubt that will happen). As an aside, I wonder what is the goal of the demonstrations? The same...

According to Wiki, approximately 170K Iraqi civilians were killed when we invaded. Not sure how many Iraqi soldiers were killed. I couldn't find the number. Of course, Hamas is deliberately embedded with civilians, so civilian deaths will be much higher. Secondly, close quarters urban area...

Derec! You are not a right winger. You are more independent. Honestly, is the above equal to fake electors plot?" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trump_fake_electors_plot The fake electors plot was a deliberate plan to overturn the constitution.

Oh gotcha! You didn't know about the fake electors scheme? Check out: https://www.politifact.com/article/2022/jan/28/what-you-need-know-about-fake-trump-electors/ When Trump took office in 2016, he took an oath to follow the constitution. And yet he clearly violated in the above. Why...

Thats about the worse excuse for a crime that I've ever heard! But do you think that after having failed to overturn the election the first time, that he'd equally fail the second the time?

One women screaming is all you got!?? The big deal here is that Trump tried to overturn the election. The fake electors scheme was a plan to overthrow the electoral college. As an aside, I actually don't like the EC either. I'd far rather have a majority vote system. Our existing voting...

Yes, glad that our beaches are open! Our rivers are open, the banks are not.

International law states that “persons with civilian status may not be directly targeted in attacks” (unless civilians are located in Ukraine or Africa” sarcasm added). I haven’t seen evidence that Israel is deliberately targeting civilians.

Is it really “bashing” to be suspicious of a country that threatens to go to war with us? And if China did go to war with the: how would trade work? Is there a single example in history of two countries at war; and yet they continued legally trading with each other? (I’m not talking about black...

Oh yea! Russians always have great respect for the sovereignty of other countries!

Apparently there is a single street in Kiev that is named after a Nazi collaborator who died in 1947. Therefore: it’s legit to invade Ukraine.

Well your very first sentence is incredibly bigoted. Then you cite some bizzare quote “rabbinal idea” to describe how all Jews think? Most Jews I know are atheist. But do you think it would be fair to describe Americans as people who get their values from Leviticus?

We could save million of dollars if we shipped lethal garbage sacks to Ukraine instead of arms.

Come on! You’ve obviously never been attacked by a grocery sack before.

Wiki has a very balanced story on the event: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2014_Odesa_clashes I assume Wiki is banned in Russia?
