injurai Posted July 20, 2017 Posted July 20, 2017 The whole McCain brain cancer Obamacare repeal fiasco is a load of situational irony that will bear no impact on the GOP. If you wrote this for television it'd be a comedy.

Unless 'support' is replaced with 'participate in' then there is a zero percent chance this is constitutional and so I'll assume the article meant participate in. As for the underlying idea: Totally indefensible. No one should be obligated to involve their private business with any party or party's against their will. Considering my previous argument regarding the civil rights act I'm nearly alone in this sentiment on this board though. I'm with you on this KP.

Agiel Posted July 21, 2017 Posted July 21, 2017 Excerpt from WaPo piece detailing Trump's legal travails: I suppose his lashing out at Mueller of late is an indication that he knows he's in deep doodoo. Quote “Political philosophers have often pointed out that in wartime, the citizen, the male citizen at least, loses one of his most basic rights, his right to life; and this has been true ever since the French Revolution and the invention of conscription, now an almost universally accepted principle. But these same philosophers have rarely noted that the citizen in question simultaneously loses another right, one just as basic and perhaps even more vital for his conception of himself as a civilized human being: the right not to kill.” -Jonathan Littell <<Les Bienveillantes>> Quote "The chancellor, the late chancellor, was only partly correct. He was obsolete. But so is the State, the entity he worshipped. Any state, entity, or ideology becomes obsolete when it stockpiles the wrong weapons: when it captures territories, but not minds; when it enslaves millions, but convinces nobody. When it is naked, yet puts on armor and calls it faith, while in the Eyes of God it has no faith at all. Any state, any entity, any ideology that fails to recognize the worth, the dignity, the rights of Man...that state is obsolete." -Rod Serling

Prepare for disappointment. Disappointment that a new low has been reached by the man? I somehow doubt that. Everything that has happened thus far is consistent to the opinion of the man my family and I have developed over the ~30 years we had to hear about him in the news. 1 Quote “Political philosophers have often pointed out that in wartime, the citizen, the male citizen at least, loses one of his most basic rights, his right to life; and this has been true ever since the French Revolution and the invention of conscription, now an almost universally accepted principle.

Zoraptor Posted July 21, 2017 Posted July 21, 2017 And he was kinda terrible at it. I mean, it can't really have passed everyone at the whitehouse by either. Not a job anyone could have done well in the circumstances. Trump cannot keep a position straight from day to day and while Spicer occasionally poured oil on PR fires most of those fires were started by Trump first and foremost and Trump hasn't exactly been reticent about stoking them either. There's not much you can do if your boss keeps insisting that his inauguration crowd was the biggest- almost as big as his hands, and let me tell you they're yuge hands and I know hands- of all time despite all evidence to the contrary. His replacement/ boss looks just terrible though. Stereotypical plastic banker PR person who you'd expect to melt if put near an open flame or turn to dust in sunlight.

Guard Dog Posted July 21, 2017 Posted July 21, 2017 Isn't freezing assets already a thing? Nothing should be seized without conviction. The definition of Civil Asset Forfeiture from Wikipedia: Civil forfeiture in the United States, also called civil asset forfeiture or civil judicial forfeiture[1] or occasionally civil seizure, is a controversial legal process in which law enforcement officers take assets from persons suspected of involvement with crime or illegal activity without necessarily charging the owners with wrongdoing. While civil procedure, as opposed to criminal procedure, generally involves a dispute between two private citizens, civil forfeiture involves a dispute between law enforcement and property such as a pile of cash or a house or a boat, such that the thing is suspected of being involved in a crime. To get back the seized property, owners must prove it was not involved in criminal activity. In all other aspects of our jurisprudence the citizen is innocent until proven guilty. Until it comes to that one thing the goddamned government loves above all other things: money. So they just made themselves this little exception to the 4th Amendment and told us to go f--k ourselves if we don't like it. Both the Democrats AND the Republicans love this. In fact only one political party in all the land of the free has fought against this legalized theft: http://www.lp.org 3 "While it is true you learn with age, the down side is what you often learn is what a damn fool you were before" Thomas Sowell
injurai Posted July 22, 2017 Posted July 22, 2017 It's the type of law that you see why it was created, but it feels rather it requires those involved to walk the correct utilitarian path when invoking it. In other words baked into it is the potential for abuse.
Volourn Posted July 22, 2017 Posted July 22, 2017 To me, it is an evil Nazi law right on the premise. There is no defense of this. if you can't prove someone is a criminal in a court of law you shouldn't be allowed to steal their money. PERIOD. Kanada has the same the kind of asanine law as well. So bad that a couple that owned apartments that happened to house drug users (and supposedly drug sellers) were basically ruined and lost everything and are still in court battles. Funny thing is that they were following the law of not discriminating against people with records plus the goal was to help those most poor and needing a home. LMAO EVIL.

BruceVC Posted July 22, 2017 Posted July 22, 2017 Im glad Spicer is gone but he had an almost insurmountable task trying to decipher and ameliorate the mercurial and confusing tweets and comments of Trump...no one would get that one right as White House Press Secretary for Trump, especially in the beginning of his presidency I like Anthony Scaramucci, he seems to understand and respect normal engagement and interaction with institutions like the Media, it will be great to start to move away from the world of " alternative facts " "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.
