Kijimuna,

You could be right about that. However given that the overall murder rate increased by about 13% during the period in question, he made no argument to explain why there was a tripling of the murder rate in DC.

Likewise he did not show what the rate would have…

Loki520,

That is precisely my point. Clark did not, as far as I know, say anything of the sort. And what he said about McCain is true. His wartime experience does not qualify him to be President. It has no relevance.

It is not true that Democrats disparage anything that…

kinniku,

If Iran were to attack Israel with the nuclear weapon it does not have and says it does not want, there is no certain scenario. Yours is that Israel retaliates upon Iran. Mine is that the US retaliates. Whether Israel retaliates or not, no American President could afford to…

RomeoRamenII,

No amount of war heroics qualifies anyone to be President. I must have missed Clark saying that Kennedy's experience qualified him for the Presidency but that McCain's did not. Or did you just make that up?

kinniku,

I'm not sure the way you describe is the only logical way for things to progress. But it's certainly one way. There is that matter of US troops in Iraq and Afghanistan and our ever present ships at sea.

Yes, if Iran gets nuclear weapons, things might get messy…

SuperLib,

It was hard for me to understand. Now I do. You were being cute.

Help me in your thinking as to which is worse. I don't understand the sentence, "In the other election the same candidate isn't allowed to be there". Same as what? Perhaps if you were more…

kinniku,

That's another good Act 1. Dramatically speaking, however, Act 2 leaves the audience hanging a bit.

WilliB,

For anyone who speaks of context, the snip and retort method of discussion is unbecoming. And that is to say nothing of word games.

You know, of course, that the idiomatic "I don't think so" does not mean that one does not think. If you don't know that, I…

SuperLib,

Snarkiness is no substitute for making a reasoned point.

About the voting fee, could you try to make your point in a less elliptical way? That way I can be sure that you have one before I address it.

No, mullahs screening candidates and shrieking right-wing radioheads calling for…

Can you imagine swinging steel pipes or throwing rocks over any issue that you feel has been forced upon you in an unrepresentative way? How about something as simple as a stamp tax?
