Total Honesty is not an option when you have sponsors and even the programs on PBS are sponsored, and not just by "viewers like you".I liked when we all gathered around the TV to see the news back in the old days.

While recognizing a historical necessity for the origin of the restriction, they consider it high time for it to be reversed now in the 21st century ( Some people even claim that racism is behind the restriction. This question of presidential elections, while very closely related to the issue of Puerto Rican statehood, is separate and self-standing for the purpose of this post: the right to vote in US presidential elections before and/without statehood. Without either siding with them or opposing them, do you believe by law, they are being denied a right that is available to others?~ less

They asked us a few questions then told us the party was over and it was time to go home, One of the guys stepped forward and told the cops they can't do that then he asked the cops if they knew who he was then he shouted out - I'm Mike the Barbers son. It wasn't like Mike the barber had mob ties or cut the hair of movie stars so the cops were not impressed. We wound up calling him Sweeny Todd after that. Cheers and happy weekend! less

Would that be reason enough for you to say such words to your child? Do you support or decry dearest daddy's reaction? Why?

Or do they simply not give a rat's a**?

Was Paul Manafort a foreign agent too? Ah the intrigue. The not knowing. How much did Trump know and when did he know it?

With the ability to withstand pain longer I'd think that again partly adrenaline but also partly distraction... while you are thinking up insults you are probably distracted from the pain

Because he is so needy for approbation 24/7 and so thin-skinned can he ACTUALLY make it a crime to make fun of him however that is accomplished? I understand you cannot threaten someone's life. But making fun of what he is at his expense? Why is that not okay to do?

Some geographers, however, list only six continents, combining Europe and Asia into Eurasia because they are on the same land mass. ~

They will have effected a HUGE change in America. Who gets to live and what America will look like from that moment on. Their heart's desire will have been achieved. They will have nothing more to fight for. They will have completely vanquished "the enemy". They will have everything they want. Who could ask for anything more?
