Anyways, I hope that clinic is back and providing just tons of abortions as soon as possible.

That's really the crux, isn't it? The legal part, that is.
Just when you thought Trump couldn't Godwin his campaign any more, he goes even fuller Hitler with his "no more Muslims" rant. And then, if that hole couldn't get any deeper, a senior aide justifies his position by defending the internment of Japanese citizens during WW II. 
In spite of party officials' attempts to disavow him, this is your GOP frontrunner, folks. All he needs is a uniform and an armband. He's swapped the stupid moustache for a stupid combover.

Now you have both parties' frontrunners saying we can't have the First Amendment anymore because, you know, terrorism.
It's enough to make one want to stab oneself in the neck at the voting machine. It's make far more of a statement than a protest vote or just not voting.

It's sad when I read the three statements from Obama, Hillary, and Trump, hate all of their positions, and yet come to the conclusion that Obama is more moderate than Clinton, who is more moderate than Trump on this issue.
I can understand the thought process, given their limited understanding, but this isn't going to happen, it can't work. The internet was designed to work around failure in the event of nuclear strikes - a little or a lot of governmental control will amount to nothing more than resources wasted.

We've already lost so much freedom thanks to the PATRIOT act.
The answer is not to take away even more.
What are you going to do when we're a totalitarian state and there is still terrorism? What will be left to take away?

Pft. He's been living in an oligarchy for as long as he can remember.
Yes because communication is the biggest barrier to understanding people that want to kill each other. For a lot of petty conflicts, sure, that may help. But when hate becomes dominant, that doesn't help one bit.
OTOH, trade usually does. It also breeds other bad things often (banana republics, and places that can export, but can't feed themselves) but it often reduces war.
I'm just gonna leave this here. @Dave, you might not wanna look. (TW: Rose Bowl)
Gotta love the 24 hour news cycle. Anything to get people upset about something.
If you are pointing and laughing at how mundane and pointless the 'news' article is, I whole heartedly agree. If you think there is anything of importance in it, then we don't agree. You're certainly welcome to your opinion if this is the case, but I hope you don't take offence if I don't sit quietly when it crops up.
Long story short, ya don't have to slink away, DA. I still like ya brother.
I just got a kick out of everyone pointing and laughing at her, especially Congressman Dingell.
Considering how insane your country is about a sport that is medically proven to screw up the players' heads permanently (link), I think the fans apparently got some collateral damage on this too considering how rabid they are about yes/no for whom to support and why.
Yes my country is insane about Hockey, but it doesn't hold a candle to the insanity that is Rugby-with-padding-and-also-more-dangerous is for the USA. And despite what most in my country call it, a Football is a ball kicked with feet by most of the players most of the time, not carried.
And for some reason I felt like starting the new year this way on this forum. Hmm! I guess I'll need to find my flameproof suit. It's around somewhere...

You call the US obsessed with football, and then compare it to soccer? We got nothing on the crazy importance some countries put on soccer.
It makes more sense for people in poor countries and favella's to worship football players and live and die by their team, since they have no other outlet or other way out, than it does in advanced and rich nations for people in authority to cover up rapes, give education free passes and all that for handegg players.
Doesn't mean you're wrong, though - the hero status accorded football players and teams in some countries is beyond ridiculous.
Also, top sports is one of those very few thing where the semi-communist American way of doing things, with salary caps and repartitioning and bidding on new players and whatever - works far better than the European free-for-all capitalist way of poaching players, offering ridiculous starting salaries, crooked management and agents, and so forth.
Now this I can agree with. I'll never see the Milwaukee Brewers as a top team, but only in American Football can I see a team located in Green Bay win the top prize.
No, not this year.
If Schwarzenegger can get an elected position then so can Trump. I don't really like to bash a person's intelligence based on their political leanings or taste in media, but I don't know what to think about Trump supporters. I am really baffled by them. I am also somewhat baffled by Hillary supporters, but I can at least understand it.
I keep thinking he's going to stop one day and it was all some huge reality t.v. show stunt, and he'll rip off his mask to reveal that it was Andy Kaufman this whole time.

Hillary supporters are very much a "devil you know" sort of crowd. She's got all the connections and backing she needs to be an effective president, as well as a political immutability (or perhaps straight up invincibility) rivaling that of her husband Bill. The idea of her being the first female president is also a plus. But yes, she's basically a straight up villain at this point. I have never once heard a Hillary supporter give me a reason why they want her to be president, simply reasons why the alternative is worse.
