Thanks Charlie Ass for stronger and spendier in the real world since the city has been doing the sky is falling routine for last 25 years I for one would have thought that the half wit who designed this ugly building would have based the entire design on their fear of an earthquake But must remember they were able to ...

That you read only what you want to into others' comments has long been established, such as now suggesting that Krzyzewski castigated Brooks. Apparently, you can't help it and don't care, but there really is no excuse for not being better informed. That you don't recognize your own words when quoted back to you shoul...

"Legal Owner of Jupiter," after reading your seven posts on this story, it's easy to suspect that you are trying to cover up more than your real name. I generally give "the law" the benefit of any doubt, but in this case why do you ignore the consistent story of a highly-credible defense witness like Eileen Whitmer? ...

Jesus was crucified because he preached love, forgiveness, and that we are all part of the Kingdom of God. Of course when he was suffering and dying on the cross in severe excruciating pain he cried out Father, Why has thou forsaken me? He was the son of God. God resurrected him and 2,000 years later his life and d...

Here I see a disconnect with reality. Observance of the law is based on penalties. Life and history has taught that there has to be a penalty for breaking the law. Be it financial incarceration or that final, the death penalty. Yet the courts with the connivance of senators etc are attempting to remove the penalty phas...

During the late 1980s, oil went below $10/barrel and Alaska went into recession. Oil did not shoot up to $90/barrel until Bush went into Iraq and the market became skiddish. Alaskan legislators should have remember the 1980s, should have known that oil was $30/barrel BEFORE the Iraq War, and NEVER should have create...

There is no constitutional mandate for a balanced budget. There is a constitutional mandate for action on filling a Supreme Court vacancy. You might be surprised to learn that many of us feel the court is too far to the right.

Probably right. Odds are Alaska will go with Trump in the general. But this will also motivate voters to get to the polls and vote out the incumbent legislators that have so mismanaged our coffers over the past decade. And there we're likely to see some major shakeups.

I am not surprised with the feeling that the court is too far to the right. There also is no time frame for which the vacancy has to be filled. The Republicans have not said it would not be filled. They just want to wait until after the election and maybe after the new president is sworn in.
