An indictment would be awesome, but I'd be just as satisfied if he simply keeled over.
I'm sure that would save the DOJ and the taxpayers a lot of money.

Re: There's a Hole at the Bottom of Math

I highly recommend the Pulitzer Prize winning book, Gödel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid, by Douglas Hofstadter on this and related subjects. It is one of the most interesting and profound books I ever read!

Re: Is the former President tweaking again, or:

But does our justice system work? Dubious. I'll believe it when I see it. I agree that there is growing cause to be dubious about that. I fear that after years, maybe even decades, of hard right conservatives successfully blocking the nomination of judges who were not themselves hard right conserva...

I’m just glad all the fact checkers regarding Mormonism came along when they did. It saved me god knows how much time in the cult.

Re: NY Bodybuilder arrested for disability fraud

Sometimes I wonder if ajax resents "ill-gotten gains" out of jealousy. He just hasn't figured out yet how to bilk the system himself. Or maybe he has figured it out, and it's his guilty conscience obsessing over this crap. Hard to say why he keeps bringing up this Crap. In other words, a case of cl...

Re: GOP Proposal to Punish Fact Checkers.

Essential that some group does our thinking for us? No thanks. That is why I left Mormonism. Right! Your ignorance is just as good as the conclusions of people with actual expertise, or diligent fact checkers who have based their conclusions on demonstrable evidence provided by such experts.

If you can't say that, and say it as often and loudly as you want, where is freedom of speech?
Apparently to today's Republicans and conservatives, freedom of speech means unrestricted and exclusive license for them to lie without having to worry about being fact checked.

Re: GOP Proposal to Punish Fact Checkers.

It is more obvious than ever that the current GOP is adamantly determined to sabotage anything the Democrats try to do, especially good, workable ideas and legislation. The better any idea proposed by Democrats is, the more adamantly GOP politicians will oppose it because they cannot bear the prospe...
