It is not the liberal press condemning Trump this time-- the Far Right is blasting him on taking action against Assad and talking regime change-- when there is no evidence that Assad ordered the sarin gas attack. Even Hillary is praising him for his action. It is the far right "America First" news sources and conservative radio like Laura Ingraham and Ann Coulter. Ir is the guys on Infowars, zero hedge, and many others. They blame it on liberal democrats in Trump's cabinet led by Democrat Jared Kushner (who is demoting Steve Bannon), Democrat Gary Cohn, Dina Powell-- friend of Huma Abedin and Hillary, Generals McMaster and Masters that are liberal democrats and believers in climate change, and soft on Muslims. | 00 | not toxic |

Unfortunately, as someone who has grew up in the Catholic Church and went to Catholic schools, I did see the discrepancies in how the wealthy and poor were treated. For instance, the Catholic high school I went to had a strict honor code where you could be expelled for things that you did outside of school. Of course the honor code only applied to the poor Latino scholarship students while the wealthy kids were never disciplined. (And this was in the 1990s BTW). After the hypocrisy I witnessed first hand, it wouldn't shock me if some bishops were pulling strings for the wealthy - i.e. annulments.
And I am sure that you and many other priests are currently doing good work with this but my concern is that AL won't really help many divorcees outside of liberal parishes where they were already being helped. My liberal parish will continue to welcome remarried people but I am afraid that many other parishes won't. | 00 | not toxic |
Trump chafes at some of the retired Marine Corps general’s moves to restrict access to him since he took the job almost a month ago, said several people close to the president. They run counter to Trump’s love of spontaneity and brashness, prompting some Trump loyalists to derisively dub Kelly “the church lady” because they consider him strict and morally superior…
Meanwhile, people close to the president said he is simmering with displeasure over what he considers personal disloyalty from National Economic Council Director Gary Cohn, who criticized Trump’s responses to a deadly white supremacist rally in Charlottesville on Aug. 12. He also has grown increasingly frustrated with Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, who has clashed with the president on issues including Afghanistan troop levels, the blockade on Qatar and Cuba policy… | 00 | not toxic |

I'm sorry but you are wrong. When it comes to communion with God, everyone is in the exact same place. Exact. Same. Place.
Sinners.
We are all unable to commune with God having broken his law of love. It is only through Sacrifice that we meet with him. Any other way is the broad way of destruction. ONLY by his grace can we approach and cooperate with him through his mercy by way of repentance, receiving his forgiveness and absolution. Exact. Same. Place.
Yes. The Church places everyone in this exact box, because Christ did.

Who's going to notice that she's back? She's the original do-nothing councilor. She has always maintained that she is too busy to bother reading up on what she is voting on and has even voted to put in illegal camps in ward 7 because she can't be bothered to either look at a zoning map or stroll a few blocks and take a look.
I wish her well for her health and all other aspects of her life. Claire's a good person. Actually, she's a very good person. She just happens to be an awful representative for ward 7. In fact, had she not taken ill, which led to an assumption that she would be stepping down soon, there would have been a massive and likely successful write-in campaign to replace her. (There were several hundred volunteers ready to go door to door.) It was halted owing to her health issues. Hopefully that wasn't a mistake. | 00 | not toxic |
It's an offer, not an agreement. High school players will often receive offers from many schools. At some point they might make a verbal commitment, but nothing is binding until they actually sign with a school, usually on national signing day of their senior year, or even later. Nothing unusual about offers being extended early in a high school kid's career. It shows interest, and begins the relationship building part of recruiting. | 00 | not toxic |

No, Demento. Law is not what you think it is.
Of course judges interpret laws, but they also make law and clarify law.
In 9 provinces and 3 territories of Canada, we live in a Common Law regime. That means, by definition, judge-made law. Of course there is also legislation, but it doesn't mean judges don't still make law. They do. They've been doing it for almost a thousand years, and are still doing it.
You may be surprised to find out that during three years at law school, students spend little time reading legislation, but many hours reading case law: judicial decisions in which judges have made law and sometimes (we hope) clarified it.
In the case under discussion, the Charter is involved to aid judges in making law, but there will be no legislation overturned or invalidated. That isn't what it's about.
By the way, judges are still engaged in clarifying the law in Quebec's civil law system, but that's a different story. | 00 | not toxic |

... the remaining market participants have no such protection from either competition or rampant taxation. It is every man for himself
in the private sector.
So for example: If an occupant of a property is a small grocery
store such as on the Danforth it would be easy to predict costs.
Hydro costs are in his records. Wage costs are in his records.
Reported profits are recorded. Wholesale purchases are in his records. It would be quite easy to calculate the effect of property tax increases on his business. Compare his numbers against the
average for his category and tax property accordingly.
Some competitors would do better others worse. Presumably
the poorer operators would close up. Rents would determine
the properties alternate desirability.

"no where did I assert any such thing...."
Stop lying. It's right there in your own words - "controls".
"Currently the federal government controls and funds about 67% of national healthcare"
"Is it your contention the the federal government of the US does not control healthcare within the VA system? "
Obviously not, because that's an obvious fact, and unlike you I don't deny nor ignore facts. The VA is only part of the system. The bone of contention here not about the VA, it's about the ENTIRE system, and your claim that since government funds 67% of it therefore government CONTROLS 67% of it, and therefore most of the problems are the fault of that government control.
And between this argument and our last one, this about the 10th time I've clearly stated this, yet you continue to lie about what my position is, because the second you acknowledge it your entire argument on this point falls apart.

On the mainland, they called these plans "catastrophic care" plans and that's what we opted to pay for to lower our insurance costs. Years would go by without any major doctors visits and we enjoyed the benefit of the lower premiums. If you're an 18-30 yrs old, this saves a LOT of money. Believe it or not, employers, GOOD employers, would love nothing more than to re-channel the savings back into paying great employees more. You people can tell yourselves that your "employer paid" insurance is free but, in reality, your pay is being offset by the total overhead of insurance hence Hawaii's ranking of LOW hourly "pay" here - due to the offset. Thank your legislators for "helping" you. Wouldn't it be nice to get it back into your pocket? | 00 | not toxic |
We had a birth at Sacred Heart (at the old location) that bordered on malpractice.. It ended with a nurse cutting my newborn baby's foot with desk scissors, removing her ankle tag without looking at what she was doing. She had to get stitches.. as a newborn.. It was a HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE experience, start to finish, everything from pushing formula, refusing to give lactation training, moving us to a shared room so they could have the single room for a 'potluck', broken blinds, freezing room, disdainful nurses and ambivalent treatment..
It culminated a few weeks later with me having to go back for a post birth hemorrhage (retained placenta) that almost cost me my life.. Never, ever again.. I never heard from the nurse who cut a dime sized piece of skin off of my baby's foot.. not even an 'I'm sorry'. | 00 | not toxic |

20 years ago, when I was still a prosecutor whose duties included handling immigration cases, I took an afternoon off and went to Duke Divinity School's library to pore through recent and archived issues of America Magazine, hoping to get a better grip on the Church's stance on illegal immigration. I have a love-hate thing with the Jesuits, but I usually look to them first for advice on moral matters. (Yes, Neko, I did go to Jesuit.) This time their advice was unusually important --- I'm Catholic first, American second. No real luck finding the right article.
20 years later comes this great piece in America Magazine titled: "I am Catholic—and I don't know what I'm supposed to believe about immigration," America Magazine. See: https://www.americamagazine.org/politics-society/2017/09/12/i-am-catholic-and-i-dont-know-what-im-supposed-believe-about

You are 100% wrong here. First the relationship between Blackberry and the RCMP was totally over blown. In most cases the access involved criminal investigation with court orders. Blackberry did what was right and what ALL phone companies do, which is cooperate with police. Next that issue has NOTHING to do with their enterprise products. All enterprise products are such that the users create their own encryption keys and Blackberry has no idea what they are. No one can break Blackberry's encryption, including Blackberry. Police can get into Iphones and Androids but they needed Blackberry's help to get into their phones. So actually you are better off having blackberry encrypted data as no one can hack into it, any other phone they can. However if you are a horrible criminal maybe you should take your chances with an iphone. | 00 | not toxic |
Right on about sunk costs and too true that we hang on to those, and sometimes make bad decision because we cannot let go. But you seem to conclude that the main objective of an alternate transport system is not needed. You suggest no alternative actions. You seem to leave the commuters in Ewa area without hope. In retrospect we should have only allowed truly affordable housing to be constructed within a reasonable distance from major employment centers (downtown, Waikiki, Ala Moana, etc) and schools (UHM, Iolani, MidPac, Punahou, Chaminade, etc., etc.) but we did not do that and instead created more affordable housing 2 hours away during rush hours which has left people to commute for 4 hours daily. What would you do about that situation of today? Are you suggesting to demolish the HART portion which has been constructed? I wonder what is the economic cost-benefit of demolition of the constructed portion vs. redesign to take it to other locations? Stopping now is not cost-free. | 00 | not toxic |
The problem with Democrats is that they think they are ordained to be in power. They believe they are entitled to the minority vote although they do nothing to improve the situations of minorities. They cannot handle defeat because of their feeling of entitlement. Whether its Ted Kennedy, trying to get the Russian KGB to interfere with Reagans reelection, to Clintons staff removing the "W" from the computer keyboards when Bush took the office and putting a grease like substance under the desks to soil the Bush staff's clothes, to the items stolen from the White House by the Clintons when they left and had to be returned. Democrats feel they are entitled and feel it is their right to be elected and cannot understand a loss. They can't comprehend why they aren't loved although they have done nothing but attempt to perpetuate their reelection, while making sure their and their friends and doners are getting full.

Is anyone besides me reminded of junior high school and its absurd cliques? All nine individuals on the board were elected to bring their energy, insight and judgment to bear for the betterment of the Hawaiian people. Instead, eight trustees meet behind closed doors (just as they did to deal with still-secret allegations of Mr Apo's alleged misconduct) to hash out what to do about still-secret allegations against Ms Akana, this apparently at the insistence of Mr Crabbe, whom a majority of the trustees wish to terminate! Meanwhile, Ms Akana buttonholes an unhappy beneficiary in a hallway to dismiss the beneficiary's concerns. Perfect. Please, trustees, take deep breaths, and step away from the personal. Remember what you were elected to do. Nobody sent you to the OHA to trash your fellow trustees. You were sent to bring your wisdom to bear with that of the other elected trustees in order to make Hawaii a better place. Are you doing that? | 00 | not toxic |

What a beautiful letter from Kimberley O'Brien! Makes you love those Irish.
Jim, hard to say whether America's indigenous people actually prefer "Native American" or "Indian", Most probably prefer going by their tribal name, as Kalapuya, Kalawatset, Siuslaw, Molalla, Umpqua, or even their band name as Chafin or Chela Mela.
In any case basic respect is that we call folks by the name they prefer and we don't use it in a disrespectful matter. That's not PC, just common decency..
Roseburg HS, which has worked harmoniously with the local Cow Creek Indians to insure respectful behavior has kept the name Indians, while Marcola, whose "Indian" name came from the local Mohawk -- an eastern term of no relevance locally-- chose to drop Indian.

This comment just appeared in my queue of comments to evaluate as I was posting in a different thread. I came here to look for the comment, not knowing who had written it, because I wanted to say that I am not terribly surprised that your Catholic family members have been supportive of you as you seek to live a life that is faithful both to who you are and to the Gospel. One of the great things about Catholicism is that most Catholics, even many priests, be they conservative or liberal, have an earthy appreciation for the vagaries of the human condition and a great tolerance for people who are plugging along, doing the best they can. And that's most of us, gay, straight or whatever. The great gift you've given your family is that you let them know who you really are; and their gift to you is that they let you know that they love you as you are. And God sees that it is good. | 00 | not toxic |

Exactly. We currently have a government imposed education ceiling. That's one of the best lines I've ever heard supporting education choice!
If you can only afford to live in Mt View or Airport Heights your kids are sentenced to their low-performing government assigned school with no other choices. In those schools, you have a 60-70% chance your kid will not read or do math at grade level and will do poorly after they leave elementary school. Those schools have ZERO incentive to innovate or improve because they know the kids and the dollars they represent will return every year regardless of performance-- they don't have any other choice.

Reading comments from her supporters tempts me to vote for Trump, but then I realize that her neoliberal supporters LOST the Oregon primary, so obviously they don't speak for the party, at least in Oregon. The recent mayor election leads me to believe that most of the commenters here don't speak for Eugene. | 00 | not toxic |
If this is correct, then it's proof that the Trump campaign colluded with a foreign government, an adversary, with the intention of damaging and destroying the opponent. This is just the tip of the iceberg. I'm sure the investigation will reveal a lot more, and indictments can't be far behind. | 00 | not toxic |

It used to be that perusing the Lame County Mugshots you would find every other criminal facing charges for pot and meth. Now days it's more Heroin, meth and more than likely both that we see more and more young people charged with possessing. I guess pot isn't good enough now that it's legal, on to bigger and badder things. It's bad enough to know we're sharing the road with drunks, tweakers and pot heads. At least the heroin addicts we read about in the news lately seem to pass out at a stand still. | 00 | not toxic |
Your definition of a "normal healthy male" is a bit different than mine. | 00 | not toxic |
SJR, unless you're telepathic, you probably have no idea from what, or if, the letter writer suffers from anything...except, perhaps, the inability to write coherently and adhere to a theme. It seems to me, Mr. Kughn was attempting to put every defense for ownership of fully automatic firearms he'd ever heard or thought of, into one, 250 word letter.
That aside, I understand why Mr. Kughn would respond to Mr. Conte as he did. Mr. Conte's assertion: "On the other side, for the most part, are men who own these kinds of weapons as compensation for their sexual inadequacy." is a prime example of painting someone else with the specific psychological flaws you have but can't recognize or to which you won't admit. | 00 | not toxic |
