Plus, it’s a just a sneaky way to go after an Obama deal the GOP hated. As usual, Dems got suckered.

Well, these are House members (I haven’t looked into them but I’m going to guess their objections are similar). Sanders and Paul were the only senators to vote against the senate version.

Well, he’s against the UN, so there are ideological reasons. Also, this:

“I once shook hands with Pat Boone and my whole right side sobered up.”

Not something I’d be into, but I guess it’s about time for a good movie about 9/11, given that those about to be college freshmen were babies when it happened. Lord, I’m old....

At least he hasn’t murdered anyone, like Hilary murdered Vince Foster, amirite?

I have a jar of pickled okra in my fridge at all times.

I think the ignorance you speak of is better addressed in the classroom.

The founders were also aware of “Hindoos” and “Mohammadans” and explicitly included them when it came to religious freedom.

Eh. It’s still quite possible to get a decent education at a public university without being buried in debt when you graduate. Go to a JUCO for your first two years and you cut the cost even further.

Seriously? me rn:

I completely disagree with your narrative. But I think we’ve reached the limits of the medium (or at least I have) so I’m going to bow out.

I asked myself, “self, when was the last time you watched a show on CBS?” So I googled. I didn’t find a show I watched, but I did find out that the new Star Trek is also going to be on Netflix, which is kind of cool because I have Netflix but wasn’t going to sign up for their all access thing just to watch it

That’s basically what I’m asking you. How we ended up in any given situation seems kind of important to me. But you answer with “who cares?” Ok then.

Seriously?

If they are an adversary, they are only such because we made them an adversary.

lol, sorry, yeah, I meant that the life the newly freed person lived didn’t change all that much from when he was a slave because...he couldn’t really do anything else.
