It's great to see the Vince Foster smear karma catching up with the Repubes!
Well.
Three years after the discredited RUSSIA! conspiracy ( now replaced with RACISM! ) along with discredited democrat smears against SCOTUS you are “ shocked” by speculation over the death of a pedophile with links to rich democrats?
Better get a grip. This story is not going away very soon. And the real victims, Epstein’s “ girls” will likely never see justice.

Everyone you disagree with is a Nazi? The Nazis stood for anti-semitism above all. Trump has a Jewish daughter and son in law. Trump has an afro-American in his cabinet. You paint a very simplistic world view. Trump, Nazis, and supporters of serial killers on one side and the all good liberal elites with chain migrants on the other. Really very little good about homelessness,  strained social services, and an unending flood of cheap labor.

Hey, way to duck responsiblity for your own prejudices, Luee.

So surprising.

Homelessness is yet another thing only brought up by the anti-immigration folks when it is convenient - never in its own rights.

Your position on immigration from the South is wrong and wrong-headed, but so long as the poor brown folks are stopped, you will be happy.

No comments on your hypocrisy on the law. No comments on your factually mistake statement about who ICE accosts. No comments on the children other than the suggestion that whatever is done to them is okay with you, since they are either illegal or too young to count.

Same old bullshit and ducking of moral responsibility because of your hatred.

Come on, guys, tell me how this is not Nazi-esque, pre Holocaust.   

Josh, Godwin wasn't saying that parallels are valid or not.  His "law" simply asserts that, given sufficient time, a comparison to Nazi Germany will always appear in a political discussion on the Net.

Barton:
On the contrary, while his law said that, what he has said more recently provides some clarity, not about the law but about the current situation.

Quote
But Mr Godwin has said that the white nationalists who took over the streets of Charlottesville over the weekend can fairly be compared to Nazis, given that many of them openly voice support for a Nazi ideology.

"By all means, compare these s***heads to the Nazis," he wrote. "Again and again. I'm with you."

You never debate in this forum. Sometimes in Baseball. Don't know about elsewhere.

And OMG, Luee, you really hit the stereotype jackpot with that post!

Some of Trump's best friends are Jewish and/or Black?

ONE African-American in his cabinet is a way of showing Trump is not a racist?!

Trump has a Jewish daughter and son-in-law and you think this prevents him from being anti-semitic?!

How many people have gay children while despising gays? Trans children? Atheist children? Liberal children? Some Jews worked for the Nazis. Some African-Americans have prejudices against African-Americans as a group and individually. Do you have any doubts of any of what I said here?!

And you defend Trump that way?!

Yeah, and Strom Thurmond fucked his black maids, so what?

Go drink some corn squeezings while reminiscing about that time in your life when you weren’t scared of everyone.

The Nazis had a hateful ideology written down long in advance of what they did. Other than catering to his full-of-Luee types base, Trump has no ideology. He makes it up as he goes along. I doubt he's given thirty seconds of thought to what his ICE policies mean. Likely because he's incapable of thirty seconds of thought.  Reprehensible those policies are, though, no doubt.
