What would you know about it Doesn't matter how much Trigirl knows. She disagrees with Rush, therefore she's politically weaponising that knowledge Do you want to have an ideagasm?

Sorry, you may be confused. I asked for a source to back up this statement. "The resulting investigation found without doubt that the chemical weapons were in fact used by the rebels themselves..." Do you have one? Do you want to have an ideagasm?

Source? Do you want to have an ideagasm?

Umm...how about the people who want to develop the area pony up for the sewage treatment? Umm... How about a President who campaigned on rebuilding infrastructure doesn't cut infrastructure budgets to pay for his insane and useless military expansion? Do you want to have an ideagasm?

Because she's a stone cold trigger puller, rrrrrrright. Of course she is! Just look at the evidence - some people who used to work for the Clintons have since died. Isn't that enough to make you see how evil she is? What more do you need!!! Do you want to have an ideagasm?

No they haven't. Right now he's not under any obligation to talk to anyone, so he's certainly not going to bother spilling the whole story to any lawyer yet. It's grandstanding. Do you want to have an ideagasm?

So just like Winsor, you haven't really said anything at all. Without reasons, the words are empty. Do you want to have an ideagasm?

I'm curious, had anyone even suggested yet that Flynn was at all likely to be charged for fully criminal actions? Such a request at this point just seems too soon, and too easy. Like putting a giant 'kick me' sign on his back. If investigators were crawling over him already it must be double by now. Do you want to have an ideagasm?

Out of curiosity, what exactly makes Hillary "evil" to you? Observing her track record for decades. Such a perfect non-answer. If I was a cynical man I'd say it's almost like you don't really believe what you're saying and are just looking for a reaction Do you want to have an ideagasm?

Does that have any impact on the relative importance of the two events as 'stuff worth caring about'? Believe it or not, that wasn't a 'Blame the US' post. I didn't even mention the US military, let alone speculate on how culpable they may have been. Do you want to have an ideagasm?

Woo boy, watch those goal posts fly! God forbid you could do the classy thing and just say "Oops, yeah I got the CGI mixed up with the whole Foundation". That'd be way too difficult. Oh by the way, it's interesting how you could be completely on board with a 2 year full court smear campaign by the Republicans against a successful and useful charity, then blame the charity itself when contributions start to go down. Between this and Tregret it seems like a lot of you guys on the right aren't really up to speed on the concept of actions having consequences. Do you want to have an ideagasm?

No shit. Not a word of that is true. Do you want to have an ideagasm?

Your comeback is that both democrats and republicans regret that Trump is president? Think it through dude, think it through Do you want to have an ideagasm?

Yeah that's fair. Though I'd say there's a huge difference between attacking Parliament and attacking close to the Parliament building. And in the scheme of things it's still a really, really small attack. Sure, it's tragic for the people who were killed, but it always is when anyone is killed for any reason. but on a scale of 1 to 10 for european islamic terror attacks I'd rate it a solid 2, maybe scraping a 3. Do you want to have an ideagasm?

That would be a good way to address it politically, but it's be far from the real way. As far as I'm aware the Republicans sought and accepted zero Democratic input into the new plans. It was just 'Here is our plan, now get ready to vote'. I know you desperately want to stick with 'everyone is equally as bad as each other' but seriously, compare and contrast with the development of Obamacare (which if anything had too much cross-aisle compromise). Do you want to have an ideagasm?

Yeah, you're very careful to never actually predict anything. Because then you can never be proven wrong. You want to argue that we're living in the end times but without ever saying anything that you can be held to. Obviously in this case it's neither here nor there since the whole thing is pure make believe. You might as well be talking about whether Gandalf will be able to save us when the Balrog attacks. But as a debating tactic be aware that it's quite transparent and quite obnoxious. Yeah? What about it? Yeah? What about it? Do you want to have an ideagasm?

Pointing out that you were misrepresenting everything I said does, on its own, address the totality of your post because it means that your post is totally pointless. If you want to have an honest discussion I'll be here, if not you'll be talking to yourself from now on. Sockpuppets are, by definition, trolls. Do you want to have an ideagasm?

I did address the totality of your response. Obviously tht's not good enough for you for some reason, but to be quite honest, I really don't give a toss what a sockpuppet troll like you thinks of what I have to say. Do you want to have an ideagasm?

No, because it still would've happened in a rich, white country. If 5 people were killed in a poor black country do you really think the reaction would be the same? Your initial argument was essentially "terrorist attack in London!" vs. "Breaking news - War in the middle East!" No it wasn't. My initial argument was a response to another poster's assessment of what 'giving a shit about the rest of the world' actually means. And ongoing conflicts with massive numbers of killed and displaced people are much more worthy of giving a shit about than a handful of murders in London. Yes, it is. It's neither convenient nor unconvenient, it's irrelevant. It's a completely different discussion with a completely different set of criteria. I'm not equating anything to anything right now. Do you want to have an ideagasm?

The irony meter is pegged. I wish I'd thought of that. Do you want to have an ideagasm?

Of course it is. Once people realise that letting poor people see doctors who don't work in the ER isn't the same as living under Lenin they'll start wanting to implement socialised healthcare the sensible way. Sure, because a pacifier is to a baby what chemo drugs are to a cancer patient. Nice analogy. Classy. Do you want to have an ideagasm?

And come the end of the year "Hey folks, the American people don't care what happens to the President's salary. It's his money and his private business. Why are you bringing up an old story? This is just a dstraction, it's fake news!" While he continues to pocket not just his salary but huge rent payments from the secret service for protecting his family in Trump Tower and his weekends in Mar-A-Lago Do you want to have an ideagasm?

Totally agree. Before Obama the Rs were diametrically opposed to any form of comprehensive government mandated healthcare. After 7 years of slating Obama for introducing it (or something vaguely like it) they now can't get rid of it without promising that they will introduce better comprehensive government mandated healthcare. If they put things back to they way they were before, they'd be lynched at the next round of elections. Even though they've somehow convinced a lot of people that ObamaCare is the work of the devil, they can't convince those people to live without the results of it. Do you want to have an ideagasm?

No-one's got bored of reporting terror attacks in France yet, have they? Conversely, a few years ago there was a sudden surge in terror attacks in Kenya. It was rare, then it became common, yet through that phase I don't remember seeing much of anything reported on the mainstream news until the Westgate Mall. Do you? If you don't think there's a difference in how people respond to things that happen to people like us vs people like them I just don't know what to say to you. Frankly, far from being a sign that people don't care about the outside world I think the response to the London terror attack is a drastic overreaction. On average 4 people are murdered in London every week and a half. 4 people are killed in one go and everyone goes bat shit crazy. All that's on Facebook are lemmings finding out if their friends are safe because they haven't posted anything for 20 minutes, as if the chances are high that in a city of eight million people they might be one of the four unlucky ones. There seriously needs to be some perspective. Well damn. Why did I think that "giving more of a shit about the rest of the world" should mean paying attention to big problems instead of just tiny problems? You're right, it was crazy. Do you want to have an ideagasm?

No, because it still would've happened in a rich, white country. If 5 people were killed in a poor black country do you really think the reaction would be the same? Do you want to have an ideagasm?
