That's not empathy. We can do better than that.
You can always go down there and take in o e or more or those homeless. You wouldn't be the first PT board poster to do it.
EDIT would -> wouldn't

If you think empathy is a bad thing then I hate to tell you about this book called the bible.

quote:Yes. For the same reason GOPE is in favor mass immigration even if it doesn’t favor them. The reason? We need the ever-increasing population to keep the SS ponzi illusion alive. Both “sides” know it.

Whatever would we do without our "citizen" Chinese spies?
The idea that somehow China is secretly birthing people in the US en masse as a clever ruse to come back into the US to “spy” on us is silly.
Hell Trump want to let in 100s of thousands of Chinese students that, historically, have been involved with (actual) espionage and IP theft. :lol:

Fair enough. I mistakenly thought you were the OP.

I was setting you straight as to what constitutes grounds for impeachment of a justice. A crime is not necessary.

Why are there so many fricking idiots around here?

quote:Except none of that happened. Disagreeing with a ruling isn’t grounds for impeachment. Hell, it’s why the lifetime appointment exists to begin with.
Being derelict in your duty to uphold the constitution is plenty grounds for impeaching a justice. For violation of their judicial oath.
Y’all sound like a democrats. Next w’all will want trump to pack the court, too.

Yep. Ypu could kiss the first two amendments gone. Reall 4th too, no way the FF considered digital encryption. Surely they would be for giving government access to everything. We can do this all day.

quote:Have you ever traveled overseas? Even a bit? :lol:
From a cultural perspective, I honestly hate being an American because it means nothing at all. Europe has tons of issues, but at least people know what it means to be British or German or French or Swedish. Or in Asia - Indian, Japanese, Chinese, or Korean. Hell, even other "new world" countries have strong identities - Latin America for instance. The U.S. has no identity or culture at all.

quote:They did no such thing. Birthright citizenship has existed for (explicitly) for almost 150 years. And implicitly before that. This ruling changed nothing, just stopped a silly attempt at bypassing a constitutional right by EO
Now that SCOTUS has made birthright citizenship legal

No I think the ruling they made is a dumb way to do it. If they want to push congress just say that an EO wasnt the way to do it.

quote:That's not the commonality.
Name one Democrat that sided with me and all but two of the conservative Justices on the Supreme Court today.
The commonality is the desire to declare the founders could not adquately contemplate the consequences of modern life, so the original purpose no longer applies. Same thing democrats do when they say "the founders never contemplated assault rifles (sic) being used for mass shootings!" to claim the 2A shoud be invalidated and gun control forced on people.

quote:One branch’s incompetence doesn’t mean the others get to take over their powers. If so Congress would simply declare the president incompetent, and assume his separated powers. There’s a reason impeachment requires a crime, not simply “incompetence”.
congress is too polarized to get 60 votes in senate to break a filibuster on anything meaningful
