Random Politics & Religion #00

Wouldn't a reverse vampire require Obama to drink his blood?

Edit: nuts to you, I paged.

Here is a squirrel then

A reverse Obama that actually sounds good.

Reverse Obama is a guy born in Alaska unites the country and stops apologizing for America.

He wouldn't dance on Ellen. Stop the keystone pipeline. etc.

What, a president that unites the people, has fiscally sound agendas and policies, and doesn't ***all over the world when he doesn't get his way?

Where can I find him?

Maybe in another video game forum.

Speaking of politics: (looks at thread title)

Can we stop the Hillary book tour ? I mean if I wanted to read a self serving smug book I'd read Katharine Hepburn's "Me"

Lisa: “Dad, don’t let these application essays throw you. Let’s see… ‘List your three favorite books and how they’ve influenced your life.’”
Homer: “Is ‘TV Guide’ a book?”
Lisa: “No.”
Homer: “‘Son of Sniglet’?”
Lisa: “No.”
Homer: “Katharine Hepburn’s ‘Me’?”
Lisa: “No!”
Homer: “Oh, I suck!

ftfy

no part of the keystone pipeline will benefit the average American.

I know some people who are otherwise "normal" who believe that. I mean it's basically what Fox has been painting since before he took office.

No, it was correct the first time.

Your "fix" would have not made sense since both scenarios meant 95% the same.

Abolishment of religion nearly means the abolishment of the constraints of religion. The only difference is that religion exists in the second example, but in a useless form.

The abolishment of the restraints on religion would make religion stronger, which is what religious nuts would want.

Actually they mean very different things, but I don't expect you to understand that.

That's not what abolishment of religion means, stop trying to redefine words, and religion isn't useless (obviously depending if you think it has any use whatsoever) regardless of the constraints on it.

I have a lot to do today, if you want to actually discuss this for real instead of just troll, PM me and I'll get to it later, I'm sure the thread will be far gone by the time I get back.

edit: fixed

You think they mean different things.

What you think and what it is is always different. That is why we keep telling you that you are so far removed from reality because you redefine definitions of words to suit your own needs and arguments.

Case in point: I said abolishment, not establishment. You altered the definition to fit your argument, only seeing what you want to see and not what is.

You accuse me of what you do yourself on a daily basis. That is, by definition, ironic and hypocritical. Or are you going to redefine those to counter this argument?

Or are you just going to say "semantics" without really knowing what it means?

Nope, we are going to discuss this here or not at all.

I'm not going to correct you privately where you are just going to ignore it again.

A real discussion that isn't possible on the internet.

Wow, I did totally type the wrong word. No the problem is that you keep redefining things once you're pointed out for being totally wrong and have no method in backing it up.

K, then keep being an ignorant fool who thinks that not letting people run wild with their religions in defiance of the law is an abolishment of religion, people will only know how crazy you really are.

on a side note: Palemoon "corrected" abolishment to establishment for me, for some reason it flagged it as wrong, and that's the first thing it came up with, I didn't pay attention when I clicked it to fix it.

This is one point that absolute drives me mad. Oil. Fracking. Pipelines. Irresponsible timber harvesting. Coal mining/burning.

There was a time when Republicans/conservatives believed in protecting the environment and regulating the jackasses trying to abuse it in the name of greed.

There are no Republicans anymore. Just libertarians masquerading as such whilst suffering psychotic episodes of Christian delusion.

Wasn't going to mention him as despite all his upsides, he had some decidedly painful downsides as well, but yeah. He's definitely an example of the positive things I'm talking about.

One of both of you were adopted?

He was reprogrammed by aliens in a flying saucer abduction?

Fluoridation of water. They managed to steal his manly essence.

They aren't trying to fix anything.

They are as much tear everything down and burn all bridges before we get to them types as the most radical people I knew in the '60s. Those people claimed to be liberal, the tea party claims to be conservative. In fact both were / are destroyers. Only difference: the tea party sits in congress....

And just to prove how bat **** insane they can get:

Tea Party Candidate Says It's OK To Stone Gays To Death

Wrong thread you want the Huff Post thread.

http://www.cnn.com/2014/06/09/us/undocumented-children-immigrants/

This is the internet where anything can happen!

In broad daylight, with no fear of being seen, a group of Honduran girls -- some as young as 14 -- cross illegally into the United States.

"Because I want to see my parents in Austin," one tells CNN.

Moments later, another group of Hondurans admits crossing the Rio Grande to get here, McAllen station, a border crossing into the United States. "Thank God nothing happened," they say of the perilous journey.
Mayor: 'Very comfortable with what I saw'
Undocumented children sent to Arizona
Crisis immigration centers under fire

This group quickly grows to 22. Most are children who traveled without any adults.

Unlike other stories of illegal immigration across a porous border, these immigrants aren't sneaking in. They're showing up and announcing themselves.

"We are seeing hundreds turning themselves in daily. And I mean hundreds at a time," said Chris Cabrera, a leader of the local chapter of the National Border Patrol Council, a labor union representing U.S. Border Patrol agents.

Many of the immigrants use rafts to cross the Rio Grande, equipped with instructions to follow the river until reaching the Border Patrol site to surrender.

"They know that once they get to the station, we are going to give them paperwork and we are going to set them free into the United States," Cabrera says.

U.S. law prohibits the Department of Homeland Security from immediately deporting the children if they are not from Canada or Mexico. Instead, the children are turned over to Department Health and Human Services supervision "within 72 hours of DHS taking them into custody," an official said.

On a side note. I like the prospect of young Honduras women that can't speak English...

If you think the Huffington Post is a reliable media outlet, you have been smoking too much.

How many people are all upside and no downside though? Aside from me of course.

That colored text in the story? Some of them "link" to actual source material where you can read or hear his statements firsthand. You activate links by clicking on them. Give it a try!

Willful ignorance of hyperlinks!
