Tlaib and Pressley were first elected to office over a decade ago and Omar’s been involved in politics locally since 2012, but sure, we can give someone else entirely all the credit for their careers, why not.

Yeah, so, having worked in the defense industry, I would offer my opinion that you have no idea what you’re talking about when you say, “yeah, no” in response to the legitimate issues Pangaean is addressing.

With lazy responses like this I sincerely hope you don't consider yourself a journalist.

I don’t think this hurt the case for impeachment. It’s also fucking stupid that your evidence for this is just linking your own article complaining about such, as though repeating yourself means you’re providing evidence.

I don’t plan on hounding anybody of any such thing. I’m responding to her response to a question she was asked by a Muslim as a Muslim at a Muslim forum. If you think that qualifies as her being “hounded,” maybe try harder at convincingly making that argument. Until then, it seems to be a safe conclusion that Omar has…

i would not change my position if it was a random person on the street asking her to do the same thing, or in any forum your little heart desires.

So a Muslim activist asking a question relevant to the largest Muslim community in the US to a Muslim Congressional representative at a Muslim conference is now nonsense? I disagree.If there was ever a situation meeting the “correct time and place” criteria, this was it.

Ani Osman-Zonneveld of the human rights group Muslims for Progressive Values asked Omar to condemn female genital mutilation (FGM).

Counterpoint: NDT has taught me many things, and Jack Crosbie has not enriched my life in literally any conceivable way.

Most suburbanites don’t want to burn their houses down and start from scratch. They want minor course corrections and simple, reasonable fixes to problems. They justifiably roll their eyes at various dorm room socialists telling them that they have the answer.

How in the hell is a +28 Dem district a “Blue Dog” district?

Same for me. If her biggest flaw is “she doesn’t apologize enough to meet my standard, when I wasn’t impacted at all by her mistake” then we have a lot more problems than Trump.

She has learned how to publicly respond to inquiries poking at the edges of the issue— “I’m not a person of color. I’m not a citizen of a tribe.”—but when the nerve is touched, she reverts to her mental cue cards, instinctively reeling off many of the plans she has for this country.

It’s almost as if the writers here are more concerned with click bait, rather than how actual legislation gets passed.

The war was basically over by December 1941? Over a year before the Soviets stopped getting their teeth kicked in because Stalin purged and executed almost his entire general staff between 1937 and 1938?

Your blue-sky idealism elected Trump. Good job, ya played yourself (and the rest of us, you selfish fuck).

Dude’s now trying to drag me into this, despite my not having upvoted Dark One’s post.

Pete Buttigieg, who is less a presidential candidate and more a collection of rich liberals’ fantasies projected into a crisp white shirt...

You have to be among the worlds most ignorant and miserable people.... I pity you.

I think I read that very same statistic in a Pew Research document, so it isn’t just a very made up figure for the point of nonsensical rhetoric. You, sir, sound like a sane and rational person who would be ideal candidate for an intelligent and mutually respectful debate on this topic, but I will have to politely decl…
