A new wave of fake outrage and drooling. What will it be next week?
The politard fools here only read headlines....then self-immolation.
Obama implemented the same policies. He coulda worked to change the law. Were you outraged then?
As usual, your reality is based on lies. Maybe lay off the sauce before noon??? Less drool will follow.

Grow nd chuck. The reason the WH hasn’t been burned down by now is that nobody is really sure that kids are getting pulled from families - could be false news.

It's truly a tragdy. Ive worked side by side with latin American immigrants my whole life (legal). The characterizations are terrible and false. They pay taxes and work their asses off.
Now I'm going to be forced to build homes with yours and my sons- just imagine how that's going to work out...
Umm, perfectly?

And the single-parent household is something that liberal policies have almost entirely created
Yeah, if only we could go back to the good old days when it was impossible to get a divorce and we could stone woman for adultery.

^What liberal policies? The ones that gave women some bit of ability to divorce abusive, drunken husbands?
"By God, when a woman had to stand by her man, no matter what - till death do us part and all, that was when America was great! Ever since those women became able to feed their children without a man handing them money, were allowed to take out loans and buy cars or own a home, things have gone to hell in a handbasket."

What they're talking about are welfare moms in the ghetto. But the real problem is lack of available, affordable housing that allows couples to raise middle-class families. The high price of tuition also tends to lower middle-class ambitions to get their kids into the professions. No more low-interest Cal Vet and FHA loans either. The simple fact is that less and less people can afford to aspire to a middle-class lifestyle since they simply can't afford to pay for it. You just don't get solid medical, dental and retirement benefits working in the service industries. The real culprit is what no one like to really talk about is a lowering standard of living for a bigger and bigger segment of the American population. If you're part of that group and you wind up getting pregnant, it's like walking the plank into a life-time of poverty.

Well, trump supporters getting butthurt because of comparisons to naziism can go cry to their mamas. A presidency that separates children (mostly brown children—hey what a coincidence!) from parents begs for such comparisons. The orange f*#kface’s musings about reining in the free press and self pardons don’t help either.
But hey, at least republican donors get tax cuts and enough firepower so crackpots can obliterate schools. MAGA mofos.

Point 6 in Ground Chuck’s post on Anti-Social personalities brought a smile to my face.
6. The antisocial personality habitually selects the wrong target.
If a tire is flat from driving over nails, he or she curses a companion or a noncausative source of the trouble. If the radio next door is too loud, he or she kicks the cat.
If A is the obvious cause, the antisocial personality inevitably blames B or C or D.

Seems that most who post on this thread are very partisan. Most who just peak into this thread understand that truth is the first casualty of partisanship.
My personal philosophy is similar to the wise men who wrote the constitution: Limited government.
Those wise men understood that more power equals more corruption.
That basic premise is where the concept of American exceptionalism comes from.
Americans are no better than people of any other country (and they may be more arrogant about their alleged superiority), but it is the concept of limited government that is truly exceptional in the history of civilization.
Now there is scientific proof backing up what the founders intuitively understood, and what we all have witnessed as the government has expanded it's responsibilities: Those bastards in Washington are a bunch of psychopaths.
A first-of-its-kind analysis ranking state-level estimates of psychopathy across the continental United States and the District of Columbia has found Washington DC harbours the highest concentration of psychopaths in the whole country.

This works very well for direct personal interactions. If everyone felt this way, the world would - indeed - be a better place.
Unfortunately, there is a broader world out there, and there is only so far our personal attempts to better ourselves go. If a kind, generous, law-abiding person moves themself and their family into a crime-ridden neighborhood, all the prayer and yoga in a day won't change the reality what's going on outside their window.
One doesn't have to choose between practicing self-improvement and being aware of a serious quake occurring around the geo-political world.

Yeah, when you have economic insecurity countries are more likely to elect angry populist.
And isn't it great that the biggest piece of legislation that Trump has signed was a trillion dollar tax increase for the 0.1%.
Oh wait...

Sh#t, and I thought this survival of the fittest thing was gonna be all peace love and Vuarnets. And I really do love sunglasses. No one told me I was gonna have to trash talk the partisans!
Who knew - turns out I like it as much as the trash talkers on the other side. I’m just not as good at it as our trash talker in chief.
