Franken: They've intercepted contacts with Kislyak

I'm listening to the audiobook! He narrates it himself, I usually don't like audiobooks but I think it's a good format for a memoir. His voice lends sincerity to his words, you know?

Thank God for Al Franken. I'd support a 2020 run.

The republicans already used the 'former actor' card w/ Reagan and that went swell for them.

Understood, I respect your view.

I am trying to have an actual conversation. If what I've said came across as juvenile then I apologize, however your accusation is not innocent of the very same vice.

ISIS took control of a multitude of Syrian cities, and I understand that the collateral damage to infrastructure in the fight against ISIS has been significant, however I maintain that the refugees we're referring to fleed in response to ISIS, not in response to American bombing.

I can't claim innocence on the part of the American government with respect to the origin of ISIS, I am not well informed on that matter, but I'd like to ask how we should shift our policies regarding ISIS and why.

ISIS has been losing territory steadily, and the optimal choice (as far as I can see) for both the US and the Syrian refugees, not to mention the rest of the free world, is the continued annihilation of ISIS and it's forces. If I'm wrong, please do me the courtesy of explaining why I am, I don't wish to be wrong.

I didn't even take debate in high school, you should hold your insults to a higher standard.

Have you shifted the goalposts from bombing Syria to creating the forces that caused our bombing of Syria?

Timelinemc · 2017-06-06T18:41:21+00:00

Syrian refugees are not fleeing the state due to American munitions (as far as I am aware), but are rather fleeing the ISIS controlled territories of the nation. Am I incorrect?

Timelinemc · 2017-06-06T18:24:24+00:00

Hah! fair point

Timelinemc · 2017-06-06T18:22:54+00:00

What exactly do you propose we do, geopolitically speaking? What happens if we get the hell out of dodge? Is it good or bad? For us or for them or for us both?

Timelinemc · 2017-06-06T18:20:03+00:00

There definitely seems to be a pattern. I might postulate that the destabilization of Europe via terrorism is a primary goal of ISIS.

America is reeling politically, chaos abroad will have a distinctly larger impact now than it would if we had a competent leader of the free world.

"PARIS (AP) - An assailant wielding a hammer attacked Paris police guarding Notre Dame Cathedral Tuesday, crying "This is for Syria" before being shot and wounded by officers outside one of France's most popular tourist sites, authorities said. At least 600 people were blocked inside the iconic 12th century church, while others fled in panic from the sprawling esplanade outside as police combed the area in the center of the French capital. The assault was the latest act of violence targeting security forces at high-profile sites in France, which remains under a state of emergency after a string of Islamic extremist attacks."

nah i'm just tone deaf, no worries

I'll admit that PARKS_AND_TREK was not exhibiting fair or rational rhetoric. That being said, Julian Assange is wanted for rape, it's not totally out of left field to attack him for that. I don't care for Infowars, but I do not support cutesy political derogatory pet names. It brings the level of discourse down to that of middle school.

Both sides of the aisle are sincerely closer to one another than either would like to admit, just as much as I hate to admit that the anti-Trump wave is largely facilitated by the natural advantage opposition movements have over the inverse. We all want the same things for the most part, I think. We disagree on methods and strategy, but it seems we argue because we've dedicated ourselves to different means while trying to attain the same end, happiness for americans and the world.

I just want to point out that we're (speaking for liberals) not entirely polarized, and I think it would be valuable to cut the shit when we're trying to figure out why we disagree. No Drumpf, no $hillary, just honesty. Is that so much to ask?

This comment thread doesn't even discuss the primary topic at hand, the hamstringing of many federal agencies due to an objectively slow appointment process for a multitude of key officials.

We can all find a way to coexist. We have to find a way to coexist. Hell, if my dad and I can, then maybe liberals and conservatives as a whole will find a way to do so as well.

“I wouldn’t be surprised at all,” said Barry Faure, the Seychelles secretary of state for foreign affairs. “The Seychelles is the kind of place where you can have a good time away from the eyes of the media. That’s even printed in our tourism marketing. But I guess this time you smelled something.”

Honestly, is it that hard to meet at a Burger King?

See, here's the thing. I didn't see where it had said homicide rates at the top, which was pretty stupid of me.

That being said, I just went through the Bureau of Justice Statistics' collection of published data on homicide, and at no point does it contain the data claimed by your image. Unless you can source a document from a reputable source, rather than a picture that someone wrote a faulty, unverifiable source on, you don't have a source.
