  1. Awesome. My favorite line:
  2. I know so many twenty-somethings who benefited from the ACA allowing them to stay on the parents insurance until 26, and many panicked after they turned 27. So many young people work in retail, restaurants, etc. jobs before they find their careers or while they continue their education; and with insurance they actually will go the doctor instead of the alternative of going to the emergency room or urgent care when they can't suffer any more. I don't even think Republican voters are really behind repeal anymore. The politicians still want their pound of flesh though.
  3. My issue is their motive. Yes, technically they are illegal. But they probably didn't have the motive to be illegal (they don't know that the proper way to request asylum is at a port of entry). As such, I don't want to lump them in with the people that jump the border to just make more money than in their home country. I'm not sure what to call them, but they are not as bad as illegal workers and not as good as asylum seekers who go to ports of entry).
  4. Obviously you deport those individuals. And these are precisely the kind of people you can call illegal, as opposed to those seeking asylum (whom earlier on seemed to get combined with actual illegal immigrants under the label of "illegals"). By the way, credit where credit is due: Thanks for engaging me through responding to my post substantively.
  5. Here's the letter from Mueller to Barr.
  6. Mueller should have testified first, so Barr can't dance around 'unsubstantiated reporting' or whatever.
  7. That's akin to, yeah I misled the American public, but I'll release the report so they'll find out I misled them. That doesn't explain why he misled the American public.
  8. Why wouldn't I want to read that? Look, I'm not sure why you're lashing out in the 2020 thread about immigration and my role in its discussion, but if you want my engagement this is not the way to accomplish it.
  9. Looks like people do dress up: https://www.nbcsports.com/bayarea/video/highlights-giants-fans-go-wild-game-thrones-night
  10. Thanks for doing this, stringer.
  11. I'm under no requirement to read your posts or click on your links. You pick and choose what you respond to and ignore people's legitimately good ideas for the immigration problem beyond building the wall and shift the goals through out the earlier immigration discussion. And I believe you were carrying on the discussion with others at the point of this post. I don't think I ever disputed that there's problem with illegal border crossings or suggested that the numbers you provided were incorrect, so I'm not sure why I needed read your articles. But what this had to do with Biden I don't know. Thanks for the like though.
  12. That's true but everyone already knows that. Part of his electibility argument is that he's largely vetted on the national stage in two previous elections.
  13. Hillary literally ran on "Not Trump" and lost. Trump was anti-Hillary plus populism (and yes part of that message was racism), but he was advocating an actually message (MAGA) as BS as it was. Hillary had no message. But whatever, I'm sure it will work for good guy Joe this time.
  14. Bleh. I marvel at the society that people want to build. His appeal, while legitimate, is only to people over 40, and likely over 50. I think any of the Democrats can win, but he would be a monumental set back as far as I'm concerned.
  15. In your mind, who, among the Democrats, has the best chance to beat Trump? And who do you believe has the most appeal to conservative/conservative-moderates? Serious question.
  16. Which is? (Not Trump! But also not Hillary! And also not Bernie!)
  17. Run against Trump is the leaderless crap that happened in 2016 that Clinton bet on. Biden is a better candidate than her, but not by much with the touchy feely Anita Hill thing, that will turn women off in droves. We can't disagree more. People desire leadership, not anti-another leader. We have fundamental disagreements about how to reach rust belt/rural people. You seem pretty rooted, and so am I. Let's agree to disagree, and take solace that we'll both vote for the Democratic nominee.
  18. And you're the bastion of hope! **** your insults bro.
  19. YOU LISTEN TO THE TRUTH, SIR. AND YOU LIKE IT.
  20. That's the kind of win a playoff team gets.
  21. I'm sorry that's cynicism, not leadership. Praising unions is easy and obvious, and how many union members are there anyways. The Blue Dog democrats don't exist anymore. This is the play of an obviously 80 year old man, who is cast in the institutions and mores that brought him to power. And praise isn't policy. Biden is awful. This kind of cynicism might actually lose the ticket. Electability (yes for different reasons) was what made Clinton arrogant and why people voted for her in the primaries; they were wrong then, and they are wrong now. Running against Trump as opposed to being an actual leader (on policy etc.) is the same reason why some of the same people oppose impeachment. I don't get it. The risk aversion makes me ill.
