I'd support prohibition if I thought it would work. We just need drunk driving penalties like they have in Germany. First time is fine of 500-1500 Euros. guns can be treated the same way. It's easy to stop the everyday gun violence (As opposed to mass shootings, which are different motivation) just have a criminal offense committed with a gun carry life in prison with no parole.

Glad you saw the light. Republicans only prosper when Democrats sit on their asses. I've voted in every single election since the 1986 midterms. Get your friends to vote, too. If they are Republicans, then let the air out of their tires on election day.

I didn't mean it that way... I meant the comment as two separate statements.. I didn't mean there were populists in Europe, just that I like their form of governments better. Abortion and guns is the biggest deal here. I can tell you that for sure. Ike Skelton, who had been my congressman for most of my life, is a pro life centrist democrat... and he held his seat for 37 years, all the way up until 2009. It also helped he lived his entire life in the district he represented, and was a VERY friendly person. I ended up doing a fair amount of the flowers for his funeral, and he was well loved by all. So Democrats can win... if they just are pro life and/or pro guns. And also, people just HATED Hillary here, why I don't know.... since they loved her husband. That makes no sense to me. In my county, Hillary only got 26% of the vote... while Obama had gotten FORTY FIVE. That's a huge freakin difference.

Not always... they will vote for a Democrat if he's a "Good ol boy". Bill Clinton won 84 counties in Missouri. Reynolds county in the Ozarks is another big Democratic area. In 1992, Clinton got over 70% of the vote there. The area around Springfield is what is really bad. They never voted for Bill Clinton, or even Jimmy Carter. He's a populist. I voted for him, I would love the USA to have a more European model of government.

I've heard many say that. This election was good as far as ballot initiatives, especially great that Sharice Davids won in Kansas (She's an amazing person)... but to get stuck with Josh Hawley and Vicky Hartzler (Ma Barker) is depressing. How are Missouri voters so damn dumb to vote in candidates that are openly against the very ballot initiatives that they just approved? If he does, it will be exactly like the firing of Archibald Cox. The sh!t will hit the fan.

If I had any doubt how low they would stoop... Fox news had a commentator that is saying the caravan is carrying SMALLPOX. A disease that was eradicated 40 years ago. It boggles the mind.

I would jump for joy if Don Jr. would get indicted. Trumps head would explode.... and then he'll throw his own son under the bus to save himself. Just you watch.

To be honest with you, a big chunk of these people are just too stupid to know the difference. They voted for Trump because they are angry that theyv'e been "forgotten" (Michael Moore is spot on) , but the reason they have been forgotten, and don't have jobs, is that they just don't have the intelligence to ascend in society.

Geez... they get more nerve every day. Using someone's song without permission at their stinkin rally, and all the while demonizing every OTHER person from that part of the world. It just gets worse every day. It's all up to turnout. If every one on our side turned up to vote, the Republican party would disappear. http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2017/05/12/black-voter-turnout-fell-in-2016-even-as-a-record-number-of-americans-cast-ballots/

Perhaps their creative teams just weren't that good. Roddenberry had no issue cranking out 29, then 26, then 24... which ended up being the standard for a season all through the 70's. I think the Conners is a good, watchable show. Will it last? Who knows, They went on for a while with Valerie Harper in the Hogan Family. Roseanne has always been a loose cannon, and yes, I understand she may have been under the influence of medication, and I seriously would not think Valerie Jarrett is black by looking at her (She's just partly).... but why would her outbursts surprise anyone? After all, she was in a mental institution for a while in the 60's! Tom Arnold has said himself that she was NOT like that when they were married, and it obviously points to some serious mental illness issues as far as he's concerned.

Certainly nobody is beating down Scott Baio's door! LOL I don't think that 3 name whoever the hell he is is gonna have anyone check for him.

That Dodge City thing is a HUGE mess. The bimbo that decided to move the polling location said she did so because of construction, except we find out there IS NO CONSTRUCTION. It's just a complete blatant attempt to keep Mexicans from voting. She's essentially another Kim Davis

Michael Cohen has dropped a November bomb. Thrilled to see it, although none of these revelations surprise anyone about Trump. I'm tempted to do it myself. That is a very good observation. They basically are finding things to feed their crazy. I know social media has totally changed my opinion of the American public. About half are complete imbeciles.

This year we had the largest single year deficit increase in the country's history. Trumpers seem to just ignore it, along with everything else.

This just proves one thing... Hollywood is a cesspool of backstabbing and debauchery.

Thank you so very much, for judging me from your throne in your mother's basement... Kaiserian in all your beauty rare. Bingo. It makes it so much more difficult for the true victims.

He isn't... nor am I... blaming women as a whole. It's blaming the men who do these things, and the women in the past who have been willing participants, not the women who are victims. Sorry, but women who are willing participants are NOT victims, and they have helped create this "monster" that the TRUE victims get caught up in. It's a vicious cycle, really. These men are emboldened by the sluts who sell themselves for roles, and then they think they are entitled to get away with it all the time as a matter of course. It needs to be stopped from both directions. Now the music festival thing... that's whole nother kettle of fish. The women aren't willing participants, so the blame is 100% at the feet of the men.

Ian McKellen hit the nail right on the head. http://deadline.com/2017/12/ian-mckellan-sexual-harassment-women-kevin-spacey-1202229600/

Oh, I'm sure he had the button, but I've seen people right and left jumping on that, acting like he had to ability to trap women inside a locked office with the button under his desk, which is just not possible. Why would you be scared if your boss locked the door? I would assume he wanted to talk about something important and didn't want interruption. If I were "scared" of being alone in a locked room with my boss, I wouldn't be working there. Period.

These stories about Matt Lauer and the door lock button do not wash. There's no way any woman could be trapped in a locked room with him with no escape, all she would have to do is manually open the door.

My main point was that if a woman does it, there is no actual outrage, and everyone thinks it's funny and cute, including the men that it happens to. And I won't lump things together like that, just like I wouldn't lump a shoplifter in with an armed robber, or someone who would steal a car.

All these things make one's head spin. You knew of a casting couch, but didn't dream it was this HUGE. Of course, there is large amount of double standard around as well, because women can do it, and nobody bats an eyelash. I think people are also lumping someone whistling, or pinching someone's butt in with stuff that's truly heinous. I mean, someone pinching your ass should not be some big deal unless you've got serious emotional problems.

I think it's also about him trying to throw some raw meat to his followers, because his poll numbers are tanking so badly. They are tearing it apart like a bunch of jackals. I literally saw 2 people on newsfeeds today say that trans people should be "exterminated"... and that was the exact word they used. I then looked one of them up on our state casenet site, and found he was arrested 3 times for domestic battery. No surprise there. This is what we are dealing with.

As the elder statesman of comedy....

Too bad there is nobody to take his place.
