this year, I feel safer that a terrorist attack won't happen during the super bowl. thank you mr. president

There will, however, be an increased chance of an incredibly insulting and racially tone-deaf TrumpTweet about Super Bowl athletes and Black History Month.

So-called judges are letting all the bad guys in, though.

Yeah seems like it'd be hard to say Trump made things safer even in the language of his followers given the TRO.

No white running backs. Yet Chicago falls apart! So sad!

Heh, why don't people try and not to post about Trump for the duration of the Superbowl,

Ok, deal. Doesn't start for another three hours though.

Quote"The baby boomers are the most spoiled, most self-centered, most narcissistic generation the country's ever produced," says Bannon in a 2011 interview.

QuoteThe baby boomers, Bannon says in a lecture given to the Liberty Restoration Foundation (LRF), failed to live up to that Burkean responsibility by abandoning the tried-and-true values of their parents (nationalism, modesty, patriarchy, religion) in favor of new abstractions (pluralism, sexuality, egalitarianism, secularism).

I'm happy to start early; ET did you have a good day today?

I'm trying to polite, but I honestly can't make heads or tails of what you are saying here.  It's clear you disagree but damned if I can figure out what the argument is here.  What "fact checks" are you talking  about?  I didn't see a single fact in your post.  You are a lawyer, so make an argument like a lawyer.  Cite a case, and explain exactly how it fits what Gorsuch is arguing without just saying "it does."  Don't make arguments about how a 10th circuit judge is allowed to reinterpret Delaware state law, when you know or should know he can't.

You don't REALLY believe his claim that he's a lawyer, do you?  I reckon he wishes he was, and maybe even flunked out of pre-law, but his entire argument stream seems like a regurgitation of bogus right-wing "legal opinions" he is reading elsewhere (but not really understanding).

 :D if you went to law school you'd especially know it's really nothing crazy to be a lawyer. anyone can get in because of (1) how easy it is to get a 3.0+ college GPA for people who aren't naturally smart by just putting in effort; and (2) minimal acceptance standards for many law schools. it's a public misconception that being a lawyer means anything. being a doctor, now that's actually legit

Heh, why don't people try and not to post about Trump for the duration of the Superbowl, that way we can pretend there's a normal life and world outside of this Trump circus? :unsure:

:huh:  Why don't you just not read for the duration of the Superbowl, and then pretend that there's a normal life outside of Languish?  Asking people not to publish so that you won't read seems an incredibly selfish request.

I am far more confident in the security of the country during Super Bowls under Obama than I am now that Trump is president.
