You realize that was like, acting and stuff right?

The thing is, it doesn’t matter what you would do if you had your way, because you don’t. The way the laws are, even in states where the death penalty is legal, sexual crimes are not eligible for the death penalty. So like, I get it, you don’t like child molesters, and as brave and edgy of a stand it may be, it…

Except no she shouldn’t be removed and he didn’t commit a capital crime.

I think we’re basically in agreement and I thank you for your thoughtful response(as always). And maybe I discounted the race portion of Haley’s reception a little too much. And I absolutely was not disparaging those that convert as being somehow less-than those born in to the religion. My point was only that may have…

I get it too. And I’d be lying if I said I didn’t have those kinds of thoughts about truly despicable criminals. But at the same time, it’s wrong and as long people remember that, whatever knee jerk reaction we may have doesn’t really matter.

I’m not sure and if that is true it’s great. I guess we’ll see what we end up with.

Yeah, well the people that run the prisons really don’t want murders happening inside their prison.

I think that emotion was also a factor. Imagine presiding over that trial, poring over all of the evidence, listening to the accounts of the victims, re-reading the briefs and living this case all day every day. I think she just let her anger get the best of her. Just being the judge in such a high profile case…

Absolutely correct, and the way prison rape is practically celebrated is disgusting.

I mean, it was pretty obvious that she changed her religion for political reasons. I don’t really blame voters for being wary of that and not trusting it. For me, there are a million and one reasons not to like her without one single thought given to her religion, but we all know how the Evangelicals are. I would say…

I live in the 7th Congressional District in PA, which is Meehan’s district. I’m very glad he is not running for re-election because he’s a piece of shit even aside from the harassment, which is ridiculously terrible. Sadly I must report, that it is EXTREMELY doubtful a Democrat will win that seat. Not unless they can…

As soon as it becomes more politically advantageous to impeach, they will impeach. Impeachment is a political maneuver. If it starts to hurt Republicans to support him, then they’ll get rid of him. A blue tide in 2018 will help.

That would probably be something that would have to be negotiated in to the CBA. Even if it wasn’t, I don’t really understand why you’re so angry.

When/if he fires Mueller, he has effectively ended his presidency.

Jeter gets in on the first ballot no matter where you choose to die. Also, fuck Jeter.

Bonds never officially failed a PED test either but here we are.

ok, i gotta ask. what’s with zoddamn?

The thing is, that when you say we I assume you mean progressives like you and I. This group doesn’t include Doug Jones. He is not a progressive, he’s a conservative. His constituents are also conservatives. I believe he’s actually going to vote according to how he feels. He’s going to be a fiscal conservative and…

After 4 votes.

The point is having someone who is not Roy Moore and who is not a Alabama Republican in that seat. He won’t be perfect, or even good, but he’s so much better than any other alternative. You won’t see a progressive senator from Alabama in your lifetime. This is the closest we’ll ever get to that. Also, I imagine he…
