So... could ya use some examples? Let's use a real simple one...the AAD. Could ya use some examples that relate to Trump? Do you want to have an ideagasm?

He could be evil and not be a threat to the US itself. He could be evil but relatively benign if he thought his own self interest aligned with not doing anything too overtly horrible. So... could ya use some examples? Do you want to have an ideagasm?

I love how you accuse others of adolescent thinking when you're just sitting there waiting for a literal deus ex machina solution to your problems. What is more adolescent than wishing the world was different so you can avoid having to deal with the way it is? Do you want to have an ideagasm?

Whether Trump is evil and whether Trump is a real threat to the American people are two different issues. The answer to one is not necessarily the answer to the other. That said, what are the real threats and perceived threats in this situation? In reality, how many American lives are seriously under threat from North Korea or Iran for instance, vs the number seriously threatened by the US government once more turning its back on universal healthcare?

Creating driving small companies out of business and creating severe financial hardship for the families that own them by refusing to pay after services were provided. Collecting charitable donations under false pretences then stealing the money. Using racist leading practices to deny black people a place to live. Charging huge fees for a fraudulent 'university' course promoted with blatantly false advertising. Almost all of the above involving (in isolation) insignificant sums of money for someone as rich as Trump claims to be, but life changing amounts for his victims. Most all con-men are utterly immoral, but a con-man who doesn't even need the money? That's disturbing. Do you want to have an ideagasm?

A) Pretty sure that's what adjectives are for. B) You said it, you should know. Do you want to have an ideagasm?

Total rejection of all I have to say sounds angry to me. You wish to project your hate on me. Where does that lead to discussion? What can you discuss with me? Where do you get that he's projecting? Quite recently you freely professed to a deep hatred of liberals and progressives. You can't blame anyone else for taking you at your word. Do you want to have an ideagasm?

But would you rather see metrosexuals with pink hair driving Priuses than men in military gear living on EBT cards and phony disabilities? Do you want to have an ideagasm?

Not that it really matters when you can come back with an endless succession of sockpuppets. Do you want to have an ideagasm?

In all, nearly 70 percent of households were without power and 17 percent of Puerto Rico was without water, Gov. Ricardo Rosselló said on Thursday, but otherwise the island was largely unscathed. “We would like to start out thanking the Almighty,” Mr. Rosselló said. “Our prayers were answered.” They prayed for a destructive hurricane? Very odd. They prayed to be spared the worst. Simple as that. Even though the worst hit someone else instead? How does the sentiment "we're so happy some other people got fucked up instead of us because the supreme overlord of the universe decided we were more deserving than them" not bring to mind a narcissistic sociopath?

Oh hey look, it's your second gotcha thread in 2 days. When you start using the fact that people are behaving in a reasonable and rational way to attack them, you really should start to consider that you are everything that's wrong with modern political discourse. I don't consider either of them a gotcha thread. Why not? Do you want to have an ideagasm?

And we have a winner Who, me or Time Magazine? The story is not so much about Irma as the record rainfall from Harvey. The One Number That Shows Why Climate Change Is Making Hurricane Season Worse It's a great piece that somehow believes less than 1 degree rise in the surface temperature of the ocean is causing an increase in storms. If only there actually was an increase. Please be less ambiguous. Do you think the article says there is an increase in the number of storms, or the severity of storms, or both?

Yeah. I recently drove abroad with a very freeform agenda of base jumping, bike riding, camping out and following the weather. Passport guy wanted to ask a bunch of questions and the exchange was something like 'Where are you going?' "Mostly around northern Italy" 'Why?' "For fun" 'Where are you staying?' "I don't know yet." 'Are you meeting anyone?' "I'll probably see people I know" 'Where are they coming from?' "It depends who it is!" etc. etc. I was actually being completely honest to the best of my ability but it could easily have been viewed as extremely evasive and uncooperative. Luckily I'm white, fairly clean cut and with a socially acceptable accent Also on the way back I was sitting behind a van with a middle aged couple who were asked by the very bored French security (carrying sub machine guns at port arms) to open the back so they could check for illegal immigrants... and they were scared shitless. Granted being British they may never have even seen someone holding a gun before but they were two steps shy of full blown panic just from being spoken to quietly by someone who had a firearm on their person. So reading some posters here criticise victims of police shootings for making sudden movements when being shouted at by a cop who is pointing a weapon at them.... I just don't even know what they're thinking Do you want to have an ideagasm?

But you're sure that there has been no change in measuring and classifying hurricanes since the mid 1800s that would alter the results of your graph? Do you want to have an ideagasm?

Why do you need to wait until 200 jumps to do that? Do you want to have an ideagasm?

But the important thing is - the worst and most damaging excesses of unfettered capitalism are all the fault of a pervasive liberal conspiracy. Do you want to have an ideagasm?

No, I do not belive you did. If you had, you would not have linked News Week because you would have seen the misleading narrative from the start. As I read the transcript it seems that Rush is accusing Big Water and Basement Depot of stoking fear and panic to make people buy more stuff from them.... but actually it's not so that people buy more stuff from them, it's because they're controlled by the Deep State and the Deep State needs people to be scared of hurricanes so they'll believe in climate change. Because.... um.... ok we'll get to that later Do you want to have an ideagasm?

Sure, but if you want to talk about denial there's so much excess food production on the planet right now that no-one even knows what to do with it.... and people are still starving in sub-saharan Africa. Market fundamentals appear to be weakening as the world’s top grain producers ponder what to do with so much food. Do you want to have an ideagasm?

Why does the hebrew perspective matter to an omnipresent deity? I think you might pose that question to Winsor. Why, don't you know? Yes I do, but, I would like to give the honor to Winsor. Winsor isn't here. Do you want to have an ideagasm?
