  1. Right, because that worked so well in Afghanistan. Wait, no - Ok it worked so well in Iraq. Wait, no - Ok it worked so well in.... help me out here? Libya?

  3. A: Is it? B: Why? Which Democrat? They've not? So what's the problem? Do you want to have an ideagasm?
  4. They think that America has mostly used its military to project liberty around the world? They're fucking delusional! Do you want to have an ideagasm?
  5. In that case the word you were looking for was 'both' instead of 'all'. I don't think y'all understand Southern American. (Singular) I understand it well enough to know that "all" without a "y'" in front of it means "all". Case in point "all y'all". Nice try though Do you want to have an ideagasm?

  7. All of who? And people like you, who claim that political compromise is nothing but weakness, will solve that how? I'm not. Lot of other people aren't either. Humans are animals, with many selfish instincts. Nope. Do you want to have an ideagasm?
  8. Right, if. Ultimately bosses will inevitably have to make decisions that involve overulling some of their employees. And part of the whole thing you were talking about regarding treatment of women in the workplace is that a lot of men cannot handle that, no matter how it is presented. A strong male leader is inspirational, a strong female leader is a bitch. So with Ron, I kinda wonder what those female managers woud say about how he reacted to working for them. Do you want to have an ideagasm?
  9. Ummm, surely if those women were in management positions then you were subordinate... Do you want to have an ideagasm?
  10. Well, you may be 4-0 up right now but remember the miracle at Medina Americans can't play golf anymore, that America is gone! It's gone! It's gone I say! Do you want to have an ideagasm?
  11. I got to the bit where he said dads can't work hard during the week then take their kids to Dairy Queen and the beach anymore - "that America is gone!" Is that true? No-one goes to Dairy Queen or the beach these days? Do you want to have an ideagasm?
  12. Since when has the right wing thought it was a bad thing to execute and imprison americans? Do you want to have an ideagasm?
  13. That's childish, you're better than that. So, you're saying he's better than you? Because you have no qualms whatsoever about defining 'American values' such that vast swathes of the populace fall outside them. Including pretty much all liberals. In fact, you give the strong impression that you pretty much exclusively define 'American values' as your values. Do you want to have an ideagasm?
  14. Look Sam, Sam, Sam, lemme tell you something, lemme tell you something... OK Sam lemme tell you something... Do you want to have an ideagasm?
  15. Except we're not in counselling, we're in a political discussion forum - and you are no more a professional politician than anyone else here. Feelings maybe important in counselling, but the purpose of counselling is not to figure out how the world works, or who would be better at running a country. So nice try at the bait and switch, but no cigar for you. Do you want to have an ideagasm?
  16. I don't understand what you mean. What I am getting at is this. Most progressive liberals posting here can only make a point by relying on the whim of shifting current statistics and YouTube videos. They lack a personal center point. That has nothing to do with what you just said. How could that possibly be "what you are getting at" with comments about grandmas and free cookies? (Ironic, given that you were hooked into Trumps campaign from his promise of a free wall) Do you want to have an ideagasm?
  17. Who is that then? You and they all know. Don't play the fool. I don't know anyone here who defends terrorists who plant bombs in US cities. That is what you meant by 'these scumbags' right? So please, enlighten me. Do you want to have an ideagasm?

  19. so the point of reasoning here (wealth inequity causes violence) is a kinda of a unicorn - data in no way actually supports the thesis, but you want to talk about it anyway. That is, unfortunately, what social science tends to be. No, I just wanted to point out that you didn't know what Kallend was trying to say. I made that pretty obvious, actually. But also, the fact that spikes in poverty don't correlate to spikes in violence also doesn't mean that there is no data to support the theory that poverty and violence are connected. Your reasoning is far too simplistic. Do you want to have an ideagasm?
  20. It was an irrelevant part of the sentence. The reason that was 'alone' stands alone. Any other reasons you gave were unconnected. Why are you under the impression that I can make Trump stop talking nonsense? About as easy as taking out Iraq's army in 2003. Oh wait, that's why we're now faced with ISIS. If you think the world is that simple then no wonder Trumps baby-talk solutions appeal to you. Also not really sure how easy an agreement with Russia will be after Trump throws is toys out of the pram upon finding Putin wont do what he wants him to. Do you want to have an ideagasm?
  21. If you were given a 2.5% raise would you say your employer was giving you free money for doing nothing? Do you want to have an ideagasm?
  22. It's the only way it makes sense. 'For that reason alone' refers to what I quoted - the bit that I missed out is another reason. If you meant 'for these reasons' that's dfferent. Good! The US looking on other countries as puppets has been a major problem for decdes. Trump is a realist? Trump claims that he can make Putin back off from the Ukraine just because he, Trump, would be the one doing the asking. He thinks he's the Vlad whisperer. He's in a fantasy world. And you think Trump, who said there was "no choice" but to confront ISIS in Syria using a deployment of 30,000 ground troops, is the guy to walk away? You sure about that? Do you want to have an ideagasm?
  23. Then I'd say neither of us said there was a direct correlation or that wealth inequality was the dominant factor. I'd also say that expecting social behavour to follow a predictable formula, let alone a formula that has one variable, would be kinda dumb. And by 'kinda', I mean 'really, really'. Do you want to have an ideagasm?
  24. The ~2% of black males that are doing the killing has nothing to do with that 10% of rich people. Your "philosophy" is bankrupt, and you can't even see that. You can't even see that I wasn't talking about my philosophy. Duh. Do you want to have an ideagasm?
  25. Sorry, what? That doesn't even make sense. Because he's angry and yells he won't start wars as a continuation of politics? How does that follow? Do you want to have an ideagasm?
