LOL... What a pity Enlytend's clump of cells turned left. She could have been such a nice person if those darn cells would have made a right turn!

785.

Re: Saudis paying for US troop deployment. Peachy. Since when are our armed forces mercenaries for hire? How much are they paying per US life lost?

Don't worry about it.... Our European Leaders (except for a few smart and wise ones) will welcome them with open arms and provide free benefits for them + their families for the rest of their lives.

The hard working native population will just have to pay more taxes and wait a few more years for their pensions in order to help out.

Pretty soon, after they arrive they'll put into practice all the barbarism they learnt in Syria and Iraq. Lots of white natives to practice on, to blow up, to slit throats or run over with trucks and cars, or to throw acid at the unbelievers.

We will just have to fend for ourselves, since the police will be overwhelmed with so much imported crime and also very busy in investigating so called "hate crimes" in Social Media, which for them is much more important than investigating violent crime.

Liberal priorities I guess...

Isn't it the same ID for all of these? So logically, the same ID should be good enough to vote. Right? Why would you need a separate ID?

Voter ID.... Every country in this planet has one, except for Planet USA... thanks to the Democrats, 'cause otherwise they won't be able to cheat, when election time comes! The Libtards call it voter suppression! LOL

All countries require government issued ID, including the US. Which country requires a separate ID just for voting?

I don't think anyone is asking for a new form of identification, just that voters prove their identity when they vote. This is not required in the US, unlike most countries.

India, for one, has a separate ID card for voting, but that's another topic. It's not fair to compare the USA to a technologically advanced country like India.

Mine (Portugal) does. The vast majority of countries require Voter ID... usually photo ID... to prevent fraud and duplicate votes at the polls.

USA's neighbors do. Canada requires voter ID. Mexico’s “Credencial para Votar” has a hologram, a photo, and other information embedded in it, and it is impossible to effectively tamper with. Confidence in the integrity of elections has soared since its introduction in the 1990s.

California and a bunch of other States allows illegal aliens to get Drivers Licences, which can be used as ID to vote.

It's easy to understand why Democrats are so much against Voter ID's, preferably with photos and holograms. They could lose a lot of illegal votes if Voter ID's were introduced in all States.

A clump of human cells is not a human being.

An ignorant rationalization to justify killing, even letting babies born alive die without care.

“Freedom of religion” means you’re free to practice your own religion yourself, not force your beliefs on everyone else.

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof...."

Try reading the constitution. I've explained the #1A is a limitation on the Gov, not citizens. Maybe if you take the time to read it yourself, you'll stop making the same argument.

Because that would be kind of Taliban-ish.

Christians are not trying to force non-Christians to do ANYTHING. Currently, it's pagan homosexuals trying to force Christians to accept and celebrate behavior THAT HAS ALWAYS BEEN incompatible with Christianity.

Read it again: "consensus climate change is man made."

You've internalized the lie so well, any disagreement, even factual ones causes you mental pain. https://www.forbes.com/sites/uhener...on-anthropogenic-climate-change/#6e62d1a91157

Those are your beliefs dummy, so how can I be lying about them.

Media lying about it? They made a show about cooling, it gets ratings. Again, less than 10%. So scientists have actually been pretty consistent with warming. I understand you want to focus on the less than 10%.

"The current warming trend is of particular significance because most of it is extremely likely (greater than 95 percent probability) to be the result of human activity since the mid-20th century and proceeding at a rate that is unprecedented over decades to millennia."

So how’s that Syria thing working out?

Kurds (including civilians) are being slaughtered
US army is in full retreat
We’ve ceded airspace to Turkey
Russia has bombed Syrian hospitals
Over 750 ISIS prisoners escaped
Americans left “high value” ISIS pris

Took a mostly controlled situation and turned it into a giant sh*tshow.

If this was his tv show he’d fire himself

IN 2017 - 2018 liberals were saying we had no legal authority to be in Syria. Now they're saying we can't leave.

This one is cheering the catastrophe.

The only way an illegal alien can contribute to social security is by stealing someone else's social security number, identity.

Re: social security for immigrants:
https://www.investopedia.com/articl...ants-over-65-and-social-security-benefits.asp

“While individuals don’t necessarily have to be U.S. citizens to qualify for U.S. Social Security benefits, they must have paid into the system for at least 10 years, or they must have accumulated enough credits between the U.S.'s system and that of a foreign country with whom the U.S. has a totalization agreement.” (And this is checked against the other country’s records.)

Totalization gives people credit for their work history in both countries while preventing “double dipping.” We have a totalization agreement with a number of countries, mostly European countries, including Portugal.

99.999999999999% of the people have no problem with a woman that's been raped having an abortion, or if her life is in danger.

This is a false argument, Entitled support abortion up to the moment of birth, regardless.

I have yet to see your outrage about all the killings done in Syria and other Arab countries, done by Muslims against Muslims and non-Muslims!

Forces the question. Does she care more about kittens than children.

Fox news poll indicating 50+% support for impeachment was wrong ( as I pointed out ).
https://therightscoop.com/ny-post-fox-news-pollster-got-impeachment-poll-wrong/

Calculated correctly based on Dem / Rep weighting, it is only 44% in favor; it will keep dropping from there. I think Syria / Kurds are a bigger problem for him.

I think I understand why the snap-move.. every-time he tries to plan to withdraw, the opposition makes it unpossible.

TDS victims like JB were bitching he wasn't getting out of Syria, now bitching he's doing it wrong. There was never a chance TK wasn't going to invade Syria unless we stayed there permanently.

Actually the United States does not. There are drivers licenses, which serve that purpose IF you drive. Military ID, separate state IDs ...
I have no problem with voter ID as long as it’s equally easy for everyone who’s qualified to obtain one. If someone is qualified but can’t get to the place where they’re issued or has difficulty obtaining the documents needed to get one (not a driver, not a homeowner, etc.) that’s an issue.
And that’s how voter suppression happens in this country. Make barriers to voting that affect a certain demographic.

I’m still a nice person, you’re just too caught up in your stereotypical judgements to get to know me. Que pena.

Had my mother chosen not to have me, I certainly wouldn’t be here to complain about it, now would I? No big deal, and in some belief systems I just would have been born somewhere else or at another point in time. Whatevs.

However there’s a good chance my mother would have died - bled out or gone septic, since safe and legal abortion wasn’t available at the time,

As it is, I was born to parents who wanted me and had the means to raise a child. But if that hadn’t been the case, it was their choice to make. Not the government’s.

My understanding is that this is a state by state issue.

I conflated voter ID (as in government issued photo ID which all eligible voters possess) and voter registration (where otherwise eligible voters would still have to enroll in order to be allowed to vote).

Trump was correct in leaving Syria. Let the Turks and Kurds continue their centuries old fight. Now that Turkey has bombed and started invading Syria, means that the Russians, who have a naval base in Syria are gonna have to get involved. The Kurds will retreat to other parts of Syria, but not without a fight.

Turkey and Europe will be the biggest losers. Turkey because they will look like the bullies internationally and will only push the Kurds to start suicide bombings in big Turkish cities once again.

Europe, thanks to their pathetic Open Borders policy, will be willingly invaded again, by an even bigger avalanche of illegals including tons of hardened ISIS fighters who are gonna create more havoc here.

The biggest winner is the US, by getting out of someone else's eternal war. They should do the same in Afghanistan... let the Muslims kill each other off, till they are sick and tired of wars.

The problem comes from states like California, where they automatically register people to vote when the apply for a drivers licence or id card.

Then those registrations are shared with advocacy groups who go door to door and fill out ballots for the registered voter. Loose laws designed to encourage vote fraud.

I think the President should have given the Pentagon 30 days to evacuate. Kurd's would have time to prepare and negotiate a peace with Asad.

Iraq also wants northern Syria. Turkey isn't concerned about terrorism, only the oil.
