    A Background Check We Can All Get Behind

    I'm not arguing that the Sexual Offender list isn't misused but then, they wouldn't be on the list had they not at one point committed a crime. Keep in mind that the whole purpose of that list is to protect potential victims, not he Sex Offender themselves. But as to this list, it's not the same...

    Sanders Call for UHC Prove Obamacare is a Failure

    Something that occurred to me when hearing Sanders calling for Universal Health Care again is that if Obamacare was a success, that is providing access to healthcare to low income families, then why would we need Universal Health Care? Wouldn't that just be redundant at this point?

    Bernie Sanders Clearly Won Tuesday's Debate -- On Twitter

    Well we saw how well the "shovel-ready" projects worked with the Stimulus package (that is to say, not at all and really served more as a stop gap measure than anything for state jobs) and as investing American Social Programs, look the government giving money to poor isn't going to help them...

    Ben Carson asks, ‘Gravity, where did it come from?’

    True, the bar is set higher and perhaps too high. But keep in mind what some on this thread want and that is to change core beliefs. If that's the case, you have to be able answer ALL the questions, which is of course impossible. But also, it's equally impossible to prove the existence of God...

    Direct democracy

    Our system of government is in need of reform but this isn't the answer. As others have pointed out, it's not merely the intelligence of the individuals that are lacking (which admittedly could certainly play a role) but beyond that it's just too much to expect everyone who works for a living at...

    Why did Sanders DEFEND hillary re email scandal she sold national secrets to china?

    Re: Why did Sanders DEFEND hillary re email scandal she sold national secrets to chi There's obviously something to it, or else Obama's administration and FBI wouldn't be conducting an investigation and raids into the matter. Now do I actually think that Obama would allow his Justice...

    Am I A "Gun-Grabber"?

    History is littered with examples of irregular forces challenging, and successfully taking on much more well equipped forces with success. I mean, just look at what is going on today. Despite America's best efforts in the region, ISIS still exists today. Then there was the Afghans who beat the...

    Ben Carson asks, ‘Gravity, where did it come from?’

    So are you saying that since the beginning, the theory of Evolution has been perfect? Of course not, because we're always learning new things, which is a good thing as well. But it also demonstrates that there is far more to learn as well on the issue and that the idea that we know everything is...

    Comparing The Two CNN Debates

    The issue was that the majority of the questions were spread out and in between different solo question. I mean, the thing is about the Republican debate is that once you move outside that first 45 minutes to an hour where it was all back and forth and over the silliest of things, it got very...

    Re: Why did Sanders DEFEND hillary re email scandal she sold national secrets to chi You forgot the little tidbit of how the email scandal has affected Clinton haven't you? I mean, even if you think the whole thing is rubbish, the fact is that the email controversy is the first thing that...

    When a gunman threatened Ben Carson, Carson told him to target a Popeyes clerk

    It wasn't just that. There was real concerns of the government overstepping their bounds as well. Keep in mind the times that the people that wrote this lived in. They had just gone from being under the reign of King to now installing a new government. Incidentally, it's the reason why the...

    Hypocrisy: How Much the Republicans and Democrats Have in Common

    Then just remain consistent is all I ask. He can't support conflict in Kosovo for the same reasons and then pretend they don't exist in Iraq. As far as the issue on Libya and Syria is concerned, he has been opposed to such things as authorizing troops and the no fly zone, but he wasn't very...

    Ben Carson asks, ‘Gravity, where did it come from?’

    The problem is that the science, and our understanding of the world around, is constantly changing though. I mean, we don't even use the same theory of Evolution as originally postulated by Darwin because it had many holes in it. There are holes in the current theory (hence the missing link) and...
