Why aren't they giving any credence to Don Lemon's fantastic theory about a traveling black hole swallowing the whole plane?! Frankly, he sure convinced me!

It's worth mentioning that chelation has actually KILLED kids who have been put through it. So working against that particular form of quackery will actually save lives. (NOTE: chelation therapy is actually useful for a small number of people with actual recognized medical conditions - I am not referring to them).

Since you can't respond to my actual points, I will have to take that as a victory. I'd give you towel to wash the egg off your face, but I think you're probably hot under the collar enough to scramble it.

The posts you show lament that nobody called. However, again, the question is - why should people engage in any action that would overwhelmingly be useless? None of the people on the bus knew her - she was identified later through the video being made public. What could they have done? Call the dispatcher and describe…

Well thanks, but maybe you could answer the actual question? Sorry, that's just me being a lawyer again. Always with thinking questions should be answered.

In seriousness - what do you think would have happened if, in fact, somebody had called the police - or told the driver? The woman presumably did not have any drugs on her person at the time. So they couldn't have busted her for possession. She was not committing any crime (at least not any that could have resulted in…

Most of these discussions center around women who are generally normal without complicating conditions. However, let me just share my experience: I was going to have a homebirth (I wound up risking out). My whole rationale was because I'm bipolar, I wanted to be far away from most doctors. While I was getting…

After the Zimmerman, Dunn and now the Alexander debacles, I'm beginning to question whether she - and some of the people in her office - are actually competent to try cases. The Alexander case should never have gone to trial. Even if they thought evidence existed to convict her, her backstory would be enough to give…

The trauma might be justified in this case. The linked articles state that the "mom" was crating Darwin (something monkeys generally dislike), emails were uncovered in which she admitted to hitting him, and he was apparently seriously underweight when he was seized. Darwin's species generally weigh 20-plus pounds as…

I don't get it. The humans claim they treated the money like a son. But the article linked to says that the monkey entered the IKEA after escaping from a crate it was being held in inside the woman's car. This lady does in fact realize that if she crated an actual human son, she'd be arrested, right? She seems to be…

Jan Brewer is a politician - she's shrewd. She knows this bill was supported by a large amount of her base electorate. Thus, she can't offend them TOO much. She needs to frame it as a "overreach of government" type of thing, not as a pro-LGBT thing. I must admit, she's spinning it with the best of them. I wonder how…

This doesn't make me question what kind of person Alec is. Let's be frank - we've probably suspected this for a while. It makes me wonder what kind of person his wife must be. What kind of person other than a total and complete sycophant could possibly stand this man? You know he's the type who rants in the privacy of…

In fairness, looking at the transcript, it's not clear who brought up the brother. The written one says he did. He looked like he was holding it together fairly ok until question 3, which is when he just sort of crumbles. I think he really starts to go when she mentions the brother by name (which I'm not sure was…

Night, bitch? Ooh, does that mean you'll be back tomorrow? I can't wait.

But doesn't that assume he broke down because of the questioning? Man of the athletes have reacted still strongly to winning a medal. The video doesn't tell whether her questioning is what set him off. His brother might have already been in his mind when he won. He was already fairly emotional when the interview…

I presented an argument that relied on logic and inference. You refused to accept it and stomped your feet about "definitive proof." Well, now you're making an argument that relies on logic and inference and I feel a bit entitled to same treatment you gave before.

I've asked you a couple times now for a definitive "Wendy Davis is pro-choice statement." I'm assuming at this point you are still talking because you get pleasure from typing. You've threatened to walk away from this conversation a few times now, but keep coming back. I'm starting to think you may be inclined towards…

I'm not quite sure -would this count as badgering? I've been watching the Olympics fairly consistently, and lots of the athletes get really emotional when they win - for reasons that have nothing to do with family members or death or grief. She mentioned the brother twice. And IIRC, Bode has mentioned his brother…

Or it could mean that they find her less objectionable to their mission than Abbott. Again, where is your evidence to the contrary? Come on, pony up.
