re: Biden logic. Putin reelected = dictatorship. Zelensky cancels elections = democracy. - N.O. via West-Cal on 3/18/24 at 11:22 am "Most dictators are initially elected and then cancel future elections."
One man, one vote, one time, eh?
I understand why Zelensky (or any leader) would not want to have elections as his country is attempting to fight off a full scale invasion, but it really does hurt his standing in the West... Posted on Political Talk Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (0) |
re: Biden logic. Putin reelected = dictatorship. Zelensky cancels elections = democracy. - N.O. via West-Cal on 3/18/24 at 10:24 am "We meddled there for at least ten years. Imagine if Russia or China had a dozen spy bases on the Mexican border. We would start WWIII over it."
As weak a "whataboutism" as one is likely to find. Putin has not even claimed this as a reason for his brutal invasion. And let's go ahead and play it o... Posted on Political Talk Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (0) |
re: Biden logic. Putin reelected = dictatorship. Zelensky cancels elections = democracy. - N.O. via West-Cal on 3/18/24 at 10:20 am "They are not a problem for us if we don't spend your tax dollars there. But we make it a problem for us."
On this point, I think you're wrong because of our interests in maintaining world stability, especially in Europe. But I respect your isolationist viewpoint. What I cannot understand is that... Posted on Political Talk Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (0) |
re: The Transqueers Take The Mask Off - N.O. via West-Cal on 3/18/24 at 10:18 am How would you even begin to engage with someone who believes something like this?

re: Biden logic. Putin reelected = dictatorship. Zelensky cancels elections = democracy. - N.O. via West-Cal on 3/18/24 at 8:48 am So, this makes it cool for one nation to invade another and wage full scale war against it?
I don’t have to love Zelensky to see that Russia is the problem. ... Posted on Political Talk Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (2) |
re: Ben Shapiro on Trump today. - N.O. via West-Cal on 3/15/24 at 2:28 pm I am 95% sure he supported Trump in 2020, though he did not in 2016. If memory serves, he wrote a good piece explaining that by 2020, the concerns over Trump’s volatility had proven to be outweighed by the track record of significant, conservative policy successes in most areas, with the near certai...

re: Will a pro athlete or coach ever be elected president? - N.O. via West-Cal on 3/13/24 at 2:23 pm I don’t see why not, given time. Byron “Whizzer” White was a Supreme Court Justice. Senator Bill Bradley played for the Knicks and Jack Kemp played for the Bills. No reason why the presidency would be out of reach. My suspicion is that it’s more likely to be an athlete rather than a coach bc athlete... Posted on Political Talk Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (1) |
re: Does America have magic soil? - N.O. via West-Cal on 3/13/24 at 10:35 am "IQ and Christianity are what has made America great, and there's no way to dispute that"
I would not dispute either because both are factors, but I would dispute that it is even close to as simple as your formulation.
Christianity is critical because Christianity had such a huge part in the ... Posted on Political Talk Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (0) |

re: Does America have magic soil? - N.O. via West-Cal on 3/13/24 at 8:59 am "Our people on average are way more intelligent."
More intelligent than whom? IQ matters, but it's far more malleable over time than many on this board seem to think. For example, Thomas Sowell wrote about this with regard to Jewish immigrants to the US. Also, Asian countries have the highest av... Posted on Political Talk Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (2) |
re: Does America have magic soil? - N.O. via West-Cal on 3/13/24 at 8:54 am You provide far and away the best explanation and garner 3 downvotes to zero. :lol:
A general consensus based on Western culture and values is the key. I love our Constitutional system, and it has served us very well, but other systems also can work well if the culture is there. See, essentially... Posted on Political Talk Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (0) |

It is bizarre to see. It's not even limited to the monetary concern - which, while substantial, is a fraction of our defense budget - it's as if they affirmatively s... Posted on Political Talk Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (2) |

re: Barrett joins liberal justices on Trump ballot ban ruling going too far - N.O. via West-Cal on 3/4/24 at 11:45 am "Typical female. Let's manage feeeeeelings."
Not a fair critique of ACB here. She felt that the majority had gone too far in setting out what Congress could do under Sec. 3 of the 14th Am when doing so was not, in her estimation, necessary to resolve the case. This is, at the least, an arguable p... Posted on Political Talk Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (2) |
re: Supreme Court Rules for Trump - N.O. via West-Cal on 3/4/24 at 9:41 am This is far better reasoning than I recall from the Colorado dissenters. Barrett (and to a lesser extent the liberal justices) may have a point that the majority opinion decides more than it needed to, but this is still a 9-0 decision and all justices agree that a state cannot enforce Article 3.
