...Had Mr Northam been a forced-birther I'd chalk his statements up to an intentional misrepresentation meant to further his agenda (and one Trump the repeated for the same reason), but the thing is the Governor has a well established record of being pro-choice so he clearly messed up. . . . that o...

...but after 10+ year of development EverQuest Next finally got canned, same story for Blizzard's attempt at a WoW successor. Elderscrolls still generate enough money as F2P to be kept around, but it's certainly wasn't a "WoW" challenge with a $15/month superscription model it was aspired to be. I ...

Generally speaking the following are things usually decried as "socialist" by the American right wing - Any government program that involves extensive regulation (or to use the capitalists term "interference") in the markets (money and/or labour) - Any attempts to limit or curtail capital accumulat...

Well, I'm confused here. First I never said Trump didn't say it, it was just explaining why he said that, or least where it came from. Point is he didn't invented or pull it right out of his arse. I misunderstood, then, as I thought you wrote that he didn't say it. Second, you even read that link y...

Great, how do you propose we do that? Education, assistance in moving to "where the jobs are," taking a giant hammer and squashing the F out of opiate and drug addiction in general, some "gubbermint New Deal" infrastructure might help, too. I am not against "mandatory" program compliance requiremen...

...And my leftie argument is that if our system of tax/governance was truly structured around the welfare of the populace then charity would be entirely unnecessary. Afterall as you say it only exists to plug the failings of the state. To me, it's not a "Leftie" argument at all. Honestly, it's real...

I can tell you the one thing I'm not watching... is Game of Thrones. I'm listening to it, but I'm buggered if I can see anything. Posting the last episode of Game of Thrones in its entirety, right here, right now, d'loaded directly from Pirateblay on teh darkweb ! https://libcom.org/files/imagecach...

Uggg, the latest stream of verbal effluent from Mr Trump in regard to abortion “The baby is born. The mother meets with the doctor. They take care of the baby. They wrap the baby beautifully. And then the doctor and the mother determine whether or not they will execute the baby.” Nothing less than ...

Not reading this.. not reading it... I haven't yet seen the lead-in title to this, so I'm friggin' completely clueless. Just posting to encourage others to enjoy discussing it so I can, too, when I finally catch up on the franchise.

Heh, didn't we have the same discussion 10-15 years ago? WoW was so big of a success that everyone wanted a piece of that pie. And I meant literally EVERYONE, from East to West, built from very solid and large fan base. You had Final Fantasy Online, D&D, Eldescrolls, Starwars, even proven veteran l...

How's he distinguishing this supposedly legally wrong practice from subscription games, which will not run without one? The distinction goes via the upfront expectation - with a subscription game, the expectation is clear that you can only access the game as long as you're continuing to pay for sai...

They are public servants, I dont see a reason Not to burden them with working towards a common goal rather than extremes. If they cant handle it, then replace them with someone else. I dont even mean just the Vice president. There are more spots that can be filled this way, like Secretary of State,...

...When you try to analyze what makes a person right wing you inevitably end up with our Constitution. The principles of the right are firmly grounded there. The left doesn't have that....It isn't policy that matters anymore. It is who can appear most virtuous. Many political parties make the exact...

.. - they all need to be whipped into line.. :twisted: I agree. Well, with the possible exception of the Supreme Court - Their role in governance is one that is more reactive than proactive. So, it's hard to "whip them into shape" if those triggers do not occur. They basically only have "Power" whe...

If you haven't watched it fair enough but you cannot argue about it as you do not have the facts. I know it was long that is why I mentioned it but if you only watched bits an pieces, maybe just maybe that's why it didn't make sense to you. You could have at least, you know, like maybe given us a s...

... - and the Supreme Court can make "recommendations" - and when it does - boy, you can bet they're taken seriously.. :roll: :roll: Not really. Those unasked for "recommendations" just mean the Supreme Court feels strongly about something, but have no legal weight. Congress can ignore them if it w...

Your reasoning is flawed, You wrote "other countries." Laws differ between Nations. That is a fact. for starters one name comes to mind "Nixon" committed crimes, was even kicked out of office for doing so but was never prosecuted, 39 others were prosecuted and sent to jail, he got a get out of jail...

... So why should an America president be any different what makes them so special above everyone else on the planet.

I dunno. Maybe what makes them different from the ones that are getting indicted is that they didn't commit any crimes while in office?

...it is a pretty interesting argument that he is making, he certainly did his homework it wasn't just thrown together.... I didn't watch all of it. In fact, I probably watched about... less than two minutes of it. I did click around to see what bits and pieces he was highlighting in his discussion...

There are even a few of his so called allies that are also saying that if Trump was not President he would indicted along with all those others the Mueller got. So it's not just Fox news that is now asking questions. ... He may yet be criminally indicted after his term is up. If so, it'd be a dange...
