You have it exactly backwards. If it was a universal POV, then there would be no intraparty conflict. Therefore my posts explicitly contradict your attempted portrayal of them.

Well let me reword that then, got any evidence of this intraparty conflict you imagine you see?

:rolleyes:

[Hint: there is conflict and it ain't about guns. Maybe you didn't notice the very large elephant in the Democratic Party room.]

The link is evidence of such a conflict.

But yeah, the bigger conflict is about how much identity politics is going to control the party, and which victim group gets top billing on the progressive stack. And good luck sorting THAT one out.

The Atheist was making an appeal to emotion based on horrible people being in prison, and SezMe correctly noted that horrible people not in prison can vote today. This has nothing to do with due process; it has to do with The Athest's fallacious argument.

Thank you. I hope theprestige reads this with careful attention so the nonsense of "due process" is put to bed by him.

People who have set themselves against society should not have a say in the ordering of that society.

OK. Lots of people can "set themselves against society" without committing a crime so where does due process come in to the picture?

To paraphrase you, why do I have to explain this simple fact to you?

If Biden gets nominated, all these grievous crimes will be swept right back under the rug by Democrats.

But not by the GOP. That's the problem with Biden; he's got a looong history that is eminently attackable in 30 second TV ads that could prove very effective.

I like Joe and he might even be a good candidate against Trump but there's better (and younger) choices.

You're crazy. Clinton's quite attractive for a woman of her years. Some of her outfits were mistakes, though. I think she should have tried to look more English county than American business. I bet she'd look good in a tweed jacket over an off-ivory blouse with moderate frills. Definitely stick to earth tones and neutrals, the bright primary colors are too young for her.

I'm impressed. Can I subscribe to your newsletter. :p

After making such a big deal about Manafort interfering in the Ukraine, I don't think they can call out Biden on that point.

Sure they can. When has hypocrisy ever been an impediment to GOPers?

Yes, yes, before you have a cow, Dems are no stranger to hypocrisy, too.

Those studies are crap. There are a lot of very easily identifiable risk factors which they don't bother taking into account, but anyone considering a handgun easily can. For example, are you a drug dealer? Is anyone in your household a drug dealer? If not, then the odds of you or someone in your household getting shot are considerably lower than the study indicates.

I always love how individuals are so quick to find fault and dismiss studies that present data they don't like. In America have the country deny evolution and if you're Republican it's a core value to deny pollution of any kind or that there are in fact poor people that are anything but lazy.
 
After seeing a couple of interviews and reading some articles I thought Seth Moulton looked like a candidate of interest. Just finished watching an interview on CNN and found Rep. Moulton to be less impressive than I hoped.
 
Lurch is the only well-known Democrat who really impresses me, and he's too old and isn't running. Pretty sure he could chew Trump up and spit him out though.

The sad truth is, they're all a bunch of Lincolns compared to Trump, who is like a jumbo scaredy-cat Hitler reincarnation who fell into a vat of toxic orange dye which has hastened both his physical and mental decline.

Lurch could employ superior language skills, dangle his medals in front of Trump, ridicule his fake bone spurs, and question whether Trump really won his war against STD's every time Trump says something crazy. Which will happen a lot in the coming months.

Then Lurch could finish Trump off by engaging him on international affairs, of which he is infinitely ignorant. Which happens to be the primary responsibility of a real president.

You had a lot of good points, but note that this last point is not going to impress a lot of his base. Trump appealed to isolationism quite a bit.

Trump's base is not in play. They can't be turned. They have to be voted down.

If they want to be isolated, then isolate and outnumber them.

I try to stay up on USA politics but I have no idea who this "well-known Democrat" Lurch is. A search for "Lurch Democrat" yields nothing but horse poop about the Dem's so-called "lurch" to the left.

Give me a hand here.
