    America's Most Obvious Tax Reform Idea: Kill the Oil and Gas Subsidies

    In this case JollyRoger we are saying the same thing. I am unaware of any specific Oil Company subsidies that exist. I could be wrong and just misread or mislead about something but I would love to hear what these are and where they are so I can contact my senator (I only have one the other...

    Would the GOP types push the USA into default ?

    Did I see that Obama passed on the offered Debt ceiling extension? I thought he agreed to any extension of the Debt ceiling.

    America's Most Obvious Tax Reform Idea: Kill the Oil and Gas Subsidies

    He's saying, "these aren't subsidies". This is just a process of not taking the money from them in the form of taxes. My understanding, and I would love to be corrected on this, is that these tax breaks are because we don't tax expenses. So any expenses the oil companies have is removed...

    Why shouldn't the US intervene in Syria?

    Sorry I know you moved on from this but I just wanted to point out a couple of things. Obama has already lost a lot of legitimacy around the world from what I can tell. He is now going to Congress to try and save what little face he can hoping they vote him down. Also how would a short term...

    Can a American Republican ever be elected president of the USA again?

    I thought this article might add something to the discussion. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2012/10/29/changing_demographics_wont_mean_the_end_of_republican_party_115941.html

    Nate Silver is "thin and effeminate"

    Regarding Hilary Clinton. Ok I'll give you that I have heard the local conservative talking head say that she now looks like Benjamin Franklin... I'm not sure how much of an insult that is it was more an embarrassed realization. I mean by that he wasn't trying to insult her. He just...

    Nate Silver is "thin and effeminate"

    ??? I know of them. I'd expect them to know better with the way there are people watching them closely for anything to complain about. What specific comments on peoples looks. I'm sure some of their callers have said things but I haven't seen or heard anything of them insulting looks? I've...

    Nate Silver is "thin and effeminate"

    Owen Prove it. Forget Rush Limbaugh and find me Republican talking heads that insult peoples looks? Fine Leoreth. The D+7 model of many of the polls that he often uses is wildly skewed based on the voter registration and enthusiasm gap. Understanding that weighting for other groups such as...

    GOP and Surprise Sex

    Arakhor. Things are never black and white. Is that child a threat to the mother? Is she the kind of person that could live with the product of the rape? Is she the kind of person that would be saved by the product of rape? For some women they claim the only reason they didn't kill...

    Colin Powell Endorses Obama. Again.

    Powell admitted in 2008 that Obama's skin color had something to do with his endorsement. Honestly reading the endorsement I feel like he is either in a fantasy world or their is a bias somewhere. Could it just be the case that where I live and my bias makes me see things differently? It is...

    Nate Silver is "thin and effeminate"

    Well I think Nate Silver is a bad Pollster. Taking it to a personal level to try and attack his feature which aren't too different than me pisses me off but to be honest I'm not aware of anyone who cares what the guy who wrote this says... Unless he's buddies with Limbaugh (Looks like he might...

    GOP and Surprise Sex

    Sure they do. What someone could consider Murder might be called "Self-Defense" or "Manslaughter" or "3rd Degree Murder". We are making comprises with murder all the time.

    GOP and Surprise Sex

    FriendlyFire I'm not sure he is getting his point across very well. It seems like he is arguing that if someone doesn't care what the (As Christians believe) God thinks then a Christian isn't going to achieve anything trying to stop them from disobeying God's will. The Christian God did...

    Parents Concerned about Religious Indoctrination in School

    Ok I'll give you that it could be considered slippery slope but it is also a straw man as it makes me appear as if I am arguing in favor of homeroom prayer when I am not. You are then arguing against the idea of homeroom prayer which I would argue against as well. So I guess you just went with...
