what a dishonest debater that Julie Alvin was, spouting sound bites and sticking to a script like a stepford wife.

She reminded me of a political ideologue from the marxist side of thinking. Lo and behold I thought I'd just check out the what the communist approach to abortion was, via wikipedia:

"In 1920, the

in all circumstances"

which says it all, bearing in mind the communists also tried to eliminate religion and promoted atheism, despite all their rhetoric about equality and justice, a human being was just a production unit in their eyes, its very dystopian and really about abandoning morality especially the christian ideals of it I think.

Tucker was good again, he seems to be a decent, common sense kind of a guy; would he ever have a chance to enter the world of politics formally, to run as a republican do you think?

Yeah it's shocking isn't it ...do you have an opinion on the North Korea peace process ? Will the north disarm enough for the US to lift sanctions?

 

[Steviedoo]

So what are you trying to say then exactly?

On one hand you're angry and adamant that men should admit more responsibility in women getting pregnant. I mean what do you want men to do if you have unprotected sex and you don't intend on getting pregnant? Force a contraceptive pill down your throat for you preemptively just incase?

Jesus that would go down well wouldn't it?

If you don't intend on getting pregnant, then it falls on you to prevent it, you are the ones who fought for abortion to be legal in the first place, so at least take the repsonibility beforehand in making sure you don't get pregnant if you don't want a child.

Not responsible enough to be a parent, don't have irresponsible sex.

And then you state men should have no say in the matters of abortion...cause fuck all us men and our rights, right?

If men want to keep and could support the child, tough! Is that right? You know, because he couldn't keep it in his pants and it's his fault you got pregnant and not yours?

Damn, alot of mental gymnastics involved.

you got all that from my post.

you're doing a lot of assuming.

can you please show me where i am angry...

you are attributing a tone to my posts that is just not there...


i'm sorry it takes two to have irresponsibe sex. it takes two to have sex... so please stop with its our responsibility to be careful...

you have put a lot of words into my posts that i have not said...assumed this and that....anyway i'm gonna let this argument go...it seems that ppl are taking my words and rewording it to suit what they think i stand for...what most women stand for...

 

[Okman]

Short answer, no
Longer answer, they don’t have to
Longest answer, with how isolationist politics is gathering steam in our times North Korea probably becomes a template tbh while they back door trade with everyone they have to anyway

 

[Steviedoo]

Women can have and bear the great thing of children.
Hell yes it’s all down to the women.
It’s your bodies after all that we have rammed down our throats time after time.

i am trying to show chipkin his argument does not make sense sorry....takes two people to have iresponisible sex....sorry

 

[Steviedoo]

Full-term?? And those cases must be all of 0.3% of those performed.

Seemingly the 'health' aspect has not been defined, so that could include mental, last-minute u-turns or just grandiose acting performances by the woman deciding she doesn't want the child after all. In fact it becomes the woman's choice only, but then you're completely for that


And how predictable. Seemingly you don't know. And who brought Trump into this

So in the end, a 'Lifestyle choice'

are you kidding me....again you're buying into the right wing scare tactics...


Modern abortion techniques do not result in live birth; however, in the great unlikelihood that a baby was born alive, the medical provider and team of medical support staff would provide all necessary medical care, as they would in the case of any live birth,” he wrote in an email. “The RHA does not change standard medical practices. To reiterate, any baby born alive in New York State would be treated like any other live birth, and given appropriate medical care. This was the case before the RHA, and it remains the case now.”

New York

a live birth as “the complete expulsion or extraction from its mother of a product of conception, irrespective of the duration of pregnancy, which, after such separation, breathes or shows any other evidence of life such as beating of the heart, pulsation of the umbilical cord, or definite movement of voluntary muscles, whether or not the umbilical cord has been cut or the placenta is attached; each product of such a birth is considered live born.”

Bit of a stalemate then, I can't see the USA being happy to have 30,000 troops stationed in south korea for another 50 years. But I think China's prepared to play the long game, and the North koreans are reliant on China like a client state, what they say goes.

There's no way the chinese and north koreans will sign a final deal where they're worse off strategically...

Trumps latest post:

"Pittsburgh jobless rate hits lowest point since the early 1970s (maybe even better than that) and Sleepy Joe just had his first rally there. Fact is, every economic aspect of our Country is the best it has ever been!"

I defend Trump from time to time, but that is BS...I don't see a problem with a leader trying to talk things up a bit to stimulate optimism but bare faced exaggeration like this has no place in a grown up political climate/debate

 

[goatwack]

I know he's trying to get under their skin for any future electoral showdowns but the tweeting needs to stop. Someone - anyone - take away his Twitter privileges, please

"Sleepy Joe"

I mean yes it's mildly amusing that a 72 year old calls his political rivals names but c'mon

Seemingly he fears no one in the 2020 Election, certainly not wily Joe, according to a former advisor

"I believe Joe Biden is the dream candidate that Donald Trump should want to run against in 2020," Miller said. "Biden is a recycled political candidate much in the same sense as former Secretary (Hillary) Clinton and Trump will be able to use Biden's 47 years in office as a massive blunt instrument to hit Biden over the head with again and again.

He's gone tweet mad today, and talking about himself in the third person

"The Media (Fake News) is pushing Sleepy Joe hard. Funny, I’m only here because of Biden & Obama. They didn’t do the job and now you have Trump, who is getting it done - big time!"

I’ll never get the support of Dues Crazy union leadership, those people who rip-off their membership with ridiculously high dues, medical and other expenses while being paid a fortune. But the members love Trump. They look at our record economy, tax & reg cuts, military etc. WIN!

Some US sites are either taking GDPR seriously or don't understand it. If they wanted to, they could serve their sites without excessive snooping and not hide behind taking compliance seriously.

Thanks Ternur, I've heard TOR mentioned before but forgot to look into it, I'll give that a go. I can't understand why that cnn video would be blocked here in the UK, other videos on the same subject are viewable. strange.

One day I stumbled across the BBC site and the house of commons was debating May's vote of confidence live, so I wanted to watch a little of it but I received the "unavailable in your country" message.

The article headline is:
Desperate for workers, Pennsylvania employers look behind bars

In today’s tight job market, fueled by Pennsylvania’s lowest unemployment rate in almost two decades, Blazer, of Surge Staffing in Schuylkill County, is having a difficult time finding workers who fit his list. With hundreds of warehouse positions to fill, he’s looking in an unusual place for new hires: behind bars.

The article says "in almost two decades" but right after I posted that link a guest on the Fox Business news said lowest in 51 years.

The Donalds tweet you posted said in Pittsburgh and not the state overall.

I wasn't criticising him about the situation in pittsburgh but the claim that every economic aspect of the whole country was the best it's ever been "Fact is, every economic aspect of our Country is the best it has ever been!" maybe it's the best in a decade, but better than the 50's and 60's, the 80's boom time? I just can't see it myself...

Every aspect hard to say without comparing but that is too much work(lol), it's hard to dispute the numbers.

Some of the unemployment numbers are pretty good. See if you can access it.

I just heard just now, the S&P 500 just hit an all time record. Last week it was the Nasdaq that hit an all time record.

considering how much stuff gets made in china, you seem to be doing better, things have taken an upturn. Savers still get no interest on savings [same here in the uk] whereas interest rates and wages were in relative terms higher in the past. [so comparing economic performance of business to years past is more complicated]

I do see an improvement but not quite matching the 50's and 60's, 80's... if apple manufactured solely in the US and Nike, microsoft, hp etc.. then I think it would be a boom time for the workers. that's the interest of the voting public, how well they are doing, rising and high share prices are okay, like apple's, but it doesn't necessarily mean the average joe has a better standard of living as a result.

Mmm, Europe has seen a rise before of ONE MASSIVE far right party... (I believe it was between 1933-1945)... not sure if common sense prevailed back then but it sure as hell brought nothing but pain, blood and carnage.

Yep totally agree. But that was a ‘real’ far right facist party.
Not anything like what we see today in Europe.
Wanting to defend your own sovereignty, your culture and way of life isn’t far right at all.
If I don’t want islam in the uk that doesn’t at all integrate make me a nazi?..
if I’m all against all the trans madness does that make me a nazi?..
if I value Christian ideals does that make me a nazi?..
The uk is a Christian nation, I signed up to the Royal Marines to defend what I believe, that also make me a nazi?..
I’ve no issue with colour at all, not one iota.
This boring nazi slur is frankly dead, as they really isn’t any real thought behind it.
I don’t want to make a master race, I don’t want to kill a single soul.
I don’t want to stop free speech.
I don’t want to impose anything on anyone...
Yet my beliefs are ‘far right’
It’s utter bullshit
