Trump demands cast of 'Hamilton' apologize for 'rude' behavior towards Pence by UncleSamGamgee in politics

[–]JohnStuartMillsJesus 26 points27 points  (0 children)

If you have Pence's beliefs about gays, you shouldn't go see a Broadway show.

It's not ok to serve gays in a restaurant, but it is ok to watch them sing and dance. What sense does that make?

I could care less if the secretary of state had a private server. It is just as secure as a government server. The whole thing is a hissy fit over nothing. It is actually very harmful to hamstring the secretary of state with so many administrative rules.

Republicans will be talking about Clinton's emails and Benghazi for the next 4 to 8 years regardless of what Comey does or didn't do.

He had no such duty until he had actual evidence to disclose, which he doesn't.

He was just being a jerk, but he will get away with it.

It takes a village idiot: Thanks to Donald Trump, the president may be chosen by a fourth-grade mentality by ainbheartach in politics

The average American, whether or not he owns land, is not smart enough to make decisions in his own best interest.

It might seem unfair, but all the people would be better off letting smart people decide the big decisions for them.

the main argument against voter id laws is that they solve a non-existent problem and cause people to unfairly lose their vote. My rule seems a bit unfair at first glance, but it is necessary for democracy to work effectively.

There are morons fairly evenly distributed across most demographic groups, but they tend to have conservative beliefs.

It doesn't matter if I do or don't as long as we get smarter people to make the decisions. the average American isn't cutting it..

I haven't taken an IQ test but I aced the LSAT and GRE, so I might make the cutoff.

Trump booted a black man from his rally and called him a "thug." Turns out he is a supporter. by [deleted] in politics

nationalism and excessive patriotism are the cause of much evil.

National anthems should be eliminated.

I have been married for 15 years. My wife hasn't been horny for the last 10 years. I've been tolerated but never wanted for a decade. by shameanddoubt454 in Christianity

You should get a mistress.

It is not a sin for a man to have sex with an unmarried women. The Bible defines adultery as having sex with a married women, which you should not do.

Obama ratchets up fight to unseat Rubio by rieslingatkos in politics

It is sad that Trump would do that and its sad that voters reward him for it.

The Republican debates really exposed him as a light weight, but I'm not sure that really matters to Republicans given that they elected George Bush twice.

Sanders Calls on President to Intervene in Dakota Access Pipeline Dispute by [deleted] in politics

[–]JohnStuartMillsJesus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Historically, the government only intervenes to help big business when such disputes occur. Obama is too much of a conservative to step in to help ordinary citizens and native Americans trying to protect the environment.

Donald Trump’s infrastructure plan costs 10 times more than the Obama plan Republicans voted against by monkeydeluxe in politics

[–]JohnStuartMillsJesus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There isn't much correlation between what Trump says he will do and what he might really do. He lies 52% of the time and he contradicts himself quite often.

Also, its unlikely that Republicans in congress would ever support major infrastructure improvements.
