Re: The American Republic has Ended, What Next?

That election was rigged and there was of lot of cheating going on. There never has been an election that was completely free from attempts to cheat. But that isn't what Walker means. He means that the election was unfair and Trump was the real winner. lol No. No doubt about that. ... yeah, no doub...

Re: powell's kraken?

Hey Walker, are you at least ready to withdraw this stupid conspiracy theory?

You want the truth?

Walker can't handle the truth!

Re: The American Republic has Ended, What Next?

Especially now Meadows has put himself into a perjury trap. The case of Meadows and the Big Lie illustrates the mess the GOP is now in, and the threat that now poses to the American Republic. Mark Meadows is one of the Trump White House insiders who spread, and lent credence to, the lie that Trump ...

Re: The Democrat Party Hates America

Not only is Walker plagued by his nightmares. He wants to pass them on to everyone else. It’s an illness.

Re: Cornel West For President!

One donor tells you nothing. That depends on the donor. In this case it tells you all you need to know about whether West's candidature is a good thing for US democracy, or for anyone who might want to vote for him. You might want to take a harder look at Trump's donors. Okay, who do you want to fl...

Re: Wonkers and Israel

How about making a distinction between acts of war and acts of terrorism? Gaza is capable of harbouring terrorists, of course (where isn't?) but it isn't capable of waging war. Israel's claim to be at war with Hamas is as dishonest as George Bush's claim to be at war with "terror". It's a ...

Re: Cornel West For President!

Leaving aside the issue of whether Cornell West would be a good, bad or indifferent president, the major issue is that his candidature threatens to put Trump back in the White House. Being on the left, West will not appeal to MAGA extremists but will attract voters who oppose Trump and would otherwi...

Re: Gun Control

Ah! A discussion of the notion of "making the case" about facts is worthy of a thread of its own, I think. Suffice to say, I am not sure a case can be made for the Russian or Israeli armed forces, and I certainly don’t claim to be able to make one in either case.

Re: Gun Control

Mick: My point is that the case Walker cited doesn't make the case for an armed citizenry.
Skep: I have no idea what that means.
Mick: Okay. In that case I don't know how to help you.
