Do you disagree?
Some gay homes are better environments to raise a child than some straight homes. Christians have the right to believe that gays shouldn't be allowed to adopt. Muslims have the right to believe that both should be thrown off buildings. I have the right to believe that Muslims are the worst religious freaks around. Bash them some, too.

I didn't realize how absent I had been. We just got back from camping/backpacking in Big Bend for the past week.

I heard you got married, opened your bar and came out of the closet. Well done. By the way, I want my money back for that fake azz gerbil you sold me.

1. You didn't answer. What do you personally think? (Unless your first sentence was an answer in a roundabout way)

2. I never said they don't have the right to believe that, they just shouldn't have the right to stop it from happening.

3. I never said you don't have the right to believe Muslims(all Muslims? Some Muslims? Most Muslims? That could use some clarification) are the worst religious freaks around. Do you want me to denounce the beheadings, the misogyny, jihad, etc while I'm criticizing aspects of christianity so it's all fair? I hope you would at least think enough of me to understand that I know that behavior and those beliefs are despicable, and saying so would only be stating the obvious.

I'm actually in the process of buying out the brand and trademark from the other two members of the LLC. Austin's way too competitive and rent's too high. I don't wanna roll the dice like that on my first establishment. I might take this thing to the Carolinas in the coming years.
 
There is a theme building on the talk shows, left and right, which is that an explanation for the popularity of Trump and the extremism we are seeing from him and others resonating, is that the GOP has been beating this drum of anger and frustration for so long now that they have to deliver. That is, the level of antagonism promoted by the GOP against DC in general is biting the establishment in the azz. No moderate can satisfy the hunger they've created for dramatic change. So when trump declines to explain anything he means, but just pounds his fist and says the system sucks and he'll fix it, don't worry, it works.

Only the GOP eh? Why do you think Sanders is as popular as he is? Why do you think so many Dems are disaffected with HC and begging for Sanders or Warren?

What do you think fueled Occupy Wall Street?

It's not just the right that is completely pizzed about our current political system.

Sanders isn't suggesting the president is a traitor. And the lack of enthusiasm for Clinton is because she's just generally annoying to listen to. I cringe when she speaks.

The frustration on the Dem side is more about targeting the Wall Street bankers, not the political class. That's the GOP target.

Sanders is suggesting that various industries and CEOs are criminals. Same with OWS - it is about much more than bankers.

You either aren't paying attention or are just being as partisan as usual.

For the record, part of what won the election for Obama was the belief (and rhetoric of the left) that Bush was a War Criminal so this notion that it's just the GOP that foments this crap is ridiculous.

I would vote for Joe Biden and I'll tell you why: he is known and liked by everyone on Capitol Hill. While I don't agree with many of his policies, I think this govt works best with a democrat president and a republican Congress both of which that can compromise. I think a lot of positive things would be accomplished with Biden way more than HRC or Jeb!.

And if Jon Stewart wasn't retiring, he would have unlimited material for the Daily Show.

I think you're right regarding his ability to work with both sides.

He's an idiot, the mans been wrong on virtually every policy decision he's been involved in. I hope he does get the nod, he'll be much easier to beat than Hillary in the general election.

Depending on who he's up against, I wouldn't be so sure. Whether you agree with him politically or not the guy is likeable and that goes a long ways to getting votes.

Yeah, I'm not the biggest Biden supporter in the world, although I like him more than Hillary - I just agree that he would be the best candidate available in regards to "working across the aisle."

There is no more working across the isle. Reid, Pelosi and Obama have destroyed any spirit of loyal opposition.
