I don't think I have. Ghavrel Send a noteboard - 15/07/2017 02:34:27 AM

You're alleging that hypocrisy implies "everyone agrees that the rule is wrong and should be done away with."

I don't believe that's the case. I think the rank and file of the GOP are largely lying through their teeth when they claim that it's not a big deal, and I think in the same circumstances Clinton would already have been impeached. The idea that Kushner has amended his security clearance to add 100 names beggars belief.

"We feel safe when we read what we recognise, what does not challenge our way of thinking.... a steady acceptance of pre-arranged patterns leads to the inability to question what we are told."

So imprison Clinton and Trump both. Just put Kasich in. I don't mind. Ghavrel - 14/07/2017 03:40:02 AM 552 Views
No thanks. We don't need Mr. Magoo as President. Tom - 14/07/2017 08:46:14 PM 574 Views
And why would we imprison Trump, counselor? Tom - 14/07/2017 08:47:34 PM 523 Views
This is your defense? "Other people would do it too?" *NM* Ghavrel - 14/07/2017 03:36:26 AM 260 Views
To quoque or not to quoque, I think the essential defense is there is NO wrongdoing in such events Cannoli - 14/07/2017 04:45:41 AM 594 Views
That's at least more logically consistent. Ghavrel - 14/07/2017 10:42:08 AM 635 Views

Question Mookie, when did you think this law was enacted and last revised? Roland00 - 16/07/2017 11:46:43 AM 540 Views
No clue. I could google, of course, but that would be cheating. *NM* damookster - 16/07/2017 03:29:52 PM 300 Views

I very well could be wrong, but I don't think that I am. Jeordam - 17/07/2017 04:50:24 PM 537 Views

Extend the query to Wikileaks publishing the documents, then. Ghavrel - 14/07/2017 10:34:53 AM 578 Views
Are you sure? aerocontrols - 14/07/2017 02:29:51 PM 432 Views
That only works if you can claim with a straight face the GOP wouldn't care Ghavrel - 14/07/2017 03:32:43 PM 581 Views
