  1. EXACTLY my point! The Russian thing was a nothingburger, with can cheese on top. And they cant even affect the HoR.
  2. @Hurlshot: How do you know if nobody is checking anything? How do you quantify the effects of social media campaigns? Somehow its been decided that the former doesn't matter and the latter is wrecking the world? Im open to seeing any actual facts.
  3. Im not saying it doesn't exist. It just seems like another loud outburst, complete with faux navel gazing about "the state of the union". Just like how anybody that can hop a fence can vote here. If its "your people" then its all good?
  4. I wonder why these foundational tenets changed from one to two?
  5. Another nothingburger like "Russian voting influence" and "paying to get your kid into university"?
  6. She should apologize to the UN. 193 members x their salaries = a colossal waste of time and money for that dog and pony show.
  7. I think you guys use electricity instead of NG for your appliances, right? An electric water heater is super easy to change yourself and you can probably put several hundred dollars back in your pocket if you do so.
  8. Hee Haw says the donkey. This is what I was thinking too would be a good idea for US use. It can shoot down mortars! Or Davids Sling which is purported to be able to handle drones and cruise missiles.
  9. I appreciate your deep well of knowledge of military technology. What, if any, system does the US have for drones / cruise missiles?
  10. Every conversation with you ends the same way. Its freaky. Whats the old saying..."Talk to long to a donkey, and the donkey talks back to you." ~ Nietzsche's brother, probably. Experience is valuable.
  11. At least you made it 2-3 post before soiling the thread so I can call that a win for everyone.
  12. The dain bramage is fo'real. Honestly, do you make it though any conversation, internet or real life, without going full maroon. "People cant wipe their own bottom without instruction and handholding, but in the matter of electing government officials they should be trusted". Ok man.
  13. I haven't seen legislation for any of the three things I mentioned. Do you have a link? Didn't you also just say the executive branch has limits because reasons, but now you say they don't? Or are you just talking about random executive agencies ala DoS and DoJ?
  14. I dunno man. "The people" cant even be trusted to not eat laundry pods, have to be "protected from themselves" from all manner of vice and almost universally develop a pack mentality. But on electing government officials their "will" should be respected ad infinitum? Needs more checks and balances imo.
  15. I do worry about "brain drain", but on the other hand, we wouldnt wind up with 50 year cancerous tumors like the racist Strom Thurmond. I know hes an outlier so maybe 20 years is a nice middle ground as Shady suggests.
  16. We need term limits. Badly. No term limits for Congress is moronic, imo.
  17. 15 ton battlebot for sale on eBay.
  18. Mario Kart Tour on iOS. Its surprisingly good.
  19. Ono of these days Id love to attend Oktoberfest in Germany. Mardi Gras too but Ive heard Bourbon Street kinda turns into a dump and the older I get the less patience I have for ginormous crowds.
  20. Why would we need Ukraine to dig up dirt for us? Maybe he thought they wouldn't snitch? Seems like there are many other apparatus that could have been used. Anywho, what time do we light our soiled undies on fire and throw them over the WH fence?
  21. Astronomers watch six galaxies suddenly fire up into quasars.
  22. Original Jurassic Park cast to return in next film.
  23. The WH should trot out their own mentally challenged and emotionally disturbed child to fight these charges. Its great theater! Ah wait, they've been doing that for a few years now.
  24. Trump releasing transcript.
