Re: Sanders wins Iowa
I just noticed that was the OP, from before the caucusing had started. It begs the question where DT got his information and what led him to post it? It really doesn't make sense. I thought Sanders was going to have a big win in Iowa if you look at the scientific polls. I simply wanted to post the ...

Re: Impeachment hearings
It seems bad for him politically. Mormons love Romney, so he’s probably the safest of all Republican senators, but even then this seems to be a political risk. Right wing media is already out for blood. This was him doing what’s right in the face of political (and possibly worse) risk. It also puts...

Re: Sanders wins Iowa
Xen, that’s asking a bit much. These folks are still split over which kind of BBQ is best. : ) I mean the gap between Texas and Memphis BBQ is definitely insurmountable, I would consider splitting the union along culinary lines before I did so for partisan reasons. In all seriousness I really was h...

Re: Sanders wins Iowa
I don't really see an end to the problem between liberal and conservative. I think secession is as realistic a solution as herding cats (a.k.a. dialogue and bipartisan efforts between the left and right). Would you mind maybe drawing or highlighting on a map of what you think these two new nations ...

Re: Sanders wins Iowa
I just noticed that was the OP, from before the caucusing had started. It begs the question where DT got his information and what led him to post it? It really doesn't make sense. At first I just assumed he mistook one of the final polls for the result but looking back at them on RCP I can't find a...

Re: John Dehlin on the Immorality of Mormonism!
The leadership of the Church is immoral when they hide facts from the membership. Do they do other things that are good? Sure. We're all a mixed bag like that. But the instance in question doesn't fall on the neutral or moral side of the line. To expand further on this point. I'd think I'd be more ...

To borrow a phrase from Doc Cam: "k".ajax18 wrote:Once an illegal immigrant gets a foot on US soil, the taxpayer is on the hook forever.
Are we free? No, we're tax chattel subject to the will of the deep state, a power that doesn't answer to democratic elections.

Re: Reparations to illegal aliens to cost $2.2 trillion
Just out of curiosity, can you link me directly to Buttigieg's comments where he promises reparations for all illegal immigrants and not just those 5,500 or so families impacted by the separation policy? Also how does a study done in 2014 give us any understanding of the cost impact on a problem tha...

Re: Tattoos
My daughter has started talking about getting a tattoo, much to my horror. I suppose I started the thread partly to reconcile this desire of hers. I won't stop her; that's not how I roll, but if I can make her feel like not wanting one is her idea, that would be optimal. On the other hand, she may ...

Re: Tattoos
(Dear lord, proof-reading the above... I sound like a special kind of douche-nugget.) I'd say the your comments rang very true to me so if they make you a douche-nugget at least you can take some solace in not being alone. As an aside, my father got his quite a bit later in life at 60. When I first...
