If the FBI report had any incriminating evidence in it you can be sure Sen. Feinstein would've leaked it by now.

On the contrary, Reagan (and Trump) understand what it means to create real wealth. Too many people, typically Leftists, only know how to share it.

I'm not a sheep or I'd be a left wing sycophant. That's what 99% of the media coverage that we get says we should do. Do you think Cooper or Lemon were right about Dr Ford's accusations, or Hannity? Hannity listened to it, spelled out the actual evidence, what did Cooper and Lemon tell you to do? They told you to believe her. FFWD to today: no one believes her, and instead of apologizing for their fake story CNN switches the narrative to "Kavanuagh lacks the right attitude" lol. Which is better? Hannity said that the FBI were corrupt, and it's leaders were showing serious bias in their handling of the Russian collusion case, and that Russian collusion was fake. Sounded like a tall tale at the time - very easy to dismiss as "Fake News". Cooper and Lemon vouch for Russian collusion and don't talk about FBI corruption at all. FFWD to today: FBI leaders are being fired and being investigated for crimes, they're being demoted, Russian collusion is on the scrapheap of old bogus news headlines now. CNN still doesn't talk about FBI malfeasance. So who was right and who was wrong? It's about as close as a fight between Mike Tyson and Mr Bean.

Well.....at least you got it somewhat right that some Democrats - SOME - must have at least some moral compass! That's why Donald Trump became President! A lot of Democrats stayed home, out of disgust with Clinton - and the Democrat establishment! Clinton and her cronies screwed their own - Bernie Sanders! Heck! Why are we surprise that Democrats screwed Ford and Kavanaugh? That's what they're good at.

It shouldn't be about your lifelong contempt for Republicans. It should be about this particular issue. Americans voted for Republicans - and Trump, It was their turn to nominate a judge. Kavanaugh ran the full gauntlet of hearings but ran smack into a politically motivated last minute smear. You're entitled to disagree with his appointment - but your admitted contempt for all things Republican - in the context of this rudderless, contemptible bunch of Democrats is misplaced.

How dare this "uppity Negro" dare to think for himself and vote against the Democratic party slavers.

Voter apathy is a huge difference maker in every election. The best known cure is to have your opponent say something like "Your supporters all fit into what I like to call the basket of deplorables" lol. Hillary blamed a million other things on her worldwide excuses tour, but anyone with a brain knows how she blew it. BEST VIDEO EVER!!!!!! (snowflake alert: if you get triggered by awesome stuff, look away!!!!!)

Maybe Don Lemon and the others are right. Kanye should stop thinking for himself and just get back into line and do what he's told.

Lol. You're trying to say that supporting Trump is worse than supporting Clinton or Obama? - Trump had sex with two women who were financially independent and willing partners, while he was married. - Clinton was a serial abuser of his own employees, and an actual rapist, while he was married. Which is far worse? Why would you even go there? You lose a million to zero here.... Obama cemented his position as divider in chief when he made a martyr of a cop killer when he said this: Note the hypocrisy of the first paragraph. All he ever did was cast aspersions on police. Think I'm kidding? He even goes on to do it again in the next two paragraphs lol:

They had enough of a moral compass to make sure that Hillary Clinton did not become president.

Yeah Canada is a great place to live and work. I'm happy up here, though it's a welcome change in the winter to get some sun and heat. There are U.S. cities I wouldn't mind living in for a while, but the experience wouldn't be much different from up here, except perhaps for New York. I've always thought that Canada is generally a cooler place to live socially and politically, though the cool factor in the U.S. varies city to city and state to state. There are great places to live down there for sure. The notion that somehow Canadians are flocking down there is fiction. Certain jobs don't exist up here because we don't have the same scales of industry. There's always some movement to centres of excellence. We have them too and draw talent internationally. It's just smaller scale up here. There are advantages and disadvantages to living in small versus large countries, and not just economic ones.

Doubling down on who believes Ford as opposed to Kavanaugh. It'll be interesting to see how Independent woman vote. My guess is that the majority - being independent - will be more inclined to vote according to the facts.....so the GOP might pick up more votes than they might previously have expected. Surprisingly, the GOP have the "high road" with this whole debacle - so much so that even some Democrats might stay home out of disgust. We'll just have to wait and see how things unfold.

Ironically, Canadians' focus on the US system might actually undermine the Canadian system too. For example, Canadians notice how our system surpasses the US system and then smugly assume that ours is the best in the world (because of course Canada's world consists of Canada and the US) while overlooking the fact that around 24 other states around the world (including Morocco's) surpass Canada's. Another Canadian error is to assume that if one extreme doesn't work, the answer is to turn to the other extreme. In other words, since Canadian mostly public health care surpasses the US' mostly private care, then certainly the more public and the less private it becomes, the better it will be. Of course it's a fallacy, but I think some Canadian voters probably buy into such a simplistic argument while ignoring that perhaps a happy-medium system could surpass even the Canadian system by far.

No politician, fringe or otherwise, has said refugees are ruining Canada. We don't allow fringe politicians in Canada anyway. You have to be a duly registered and accepted member of one of the few political parties. And once ensconced there you may not speak your opinion, but may only regurgitate the party's positions. And the parties are not interested in health care in large measure because no one is forcing them to be interested. I think this is largely a case where the public has given up, reconciling themselves to the fact nothing is going to be done anyway. I honestly think that the Tories could rouse the public and win the next election by proposing massive changes to our health care system to emulate the best of Europe, but that would require at least a middling degree of bravery, and that's not something we've seen from them since Mulroney.

The facts from his past were that he was a drunken party animal, and a mean drunk according to those who were there with him at the time. Harris basically ignored the he said/she said aspect of this to focus on a few pertinent known facts. Did a lot of people get drunk and act badly in college? Yes, many did, including Sam Harris. But few of us had the kind of reputation for a being a nasty boozehound that Kavanaugh had. It is this that Kavanaugh lied about, avoided talking about, forgot pertinent facts about, and dodged around questions for. It has been a constant in conversations. Well, there's no proof! Which is true, but the standard for appointing a judge ought not to be 'Well, we can't prove he broke the law". Well, first, the whole senate wasn't in the room. Second, there were more of his Republican cheerleaders there than there were Democrats. Third, if your standard for honesty and integrity in a judge who sits on the supreme court is "Well, he's no more dishonest than politicians" then you clearly don't have a lot of interest in judicial integrity. The rest of us hold judges to a considerably higher standard than politicians. Which is why a judge who lies, who insults his questioners, who loses his cool and breaks down in tears, is someone we find to be manifestly unfit.

Universal health care insurance is just another entitlement program...it is not a right...and it certainly isn't "free".

Most of the time I can never figure out as to what the hell you are replying too or about. I always get confused by your responses. But hey.
