That would be Trump, Mr. ChipsEh, who would that be then?
Right. And that's no rebuttal. Unless you assume the people there got it right twice. You should really look into it. Actually, literally do that and you won't keep writing bits like this.
The rotation of the earth and it's orbit around the sun hasn't been demonstrated?lain:
I never said otherwise. But the way law and this government functions (and you were talking about a rather immediate period of time with Trump acting within that Constitutional framework) you couldn't do what you spoke to. Couldn't begin to do it. Again, the Constitution wouldn't let you. Do you know the process for repealing Constitutional Amendments?
I didn't mention the S. Ct., though it has a role, as does a divided Congress and the White House. Seriously, there's no rational way to argue for your position if you understand the process of government, supra.
Well, no. That's just you saying something, again. Equality before the law isn't complicated. It's neither a conservative nor a liberal notion. What's complicated is putting it into action. It took quite a while for us to manage it. For a long time we didn't even treat some human beings like human beings. Some poor souls still don't, or do so begrudgingly.
That would be Trump, Mr. Chips
Well, if I had predicted the end of the world you may have had a point. I think you're a bit koo koo for your own predictions but hey...you have at it.
Polling and data analysis isn't a guess. You could say it's an educated guess of sorts, but there's more science to it than not.Really?
My point is it was a guess are you saying that they have a more active role in the outcome?
Well, yes. Yes I have. There's been an advance in technology that allows anyone interested to do that. If you haven't you really should. But you don't have to trust that technology. Science and mathematics will tell you if you know where to look. Here's a link to a really good explanation of the science from the good folks at scienceblogs.com.Seen the earth spinning have you?
To amend the Constitution? Sure. They've done it a number of times. Same process. You need, to begin with, two thirds of each half of Congress in agreement or a call for a Constitutional convention by two thirds of the state legislatures. Now even when the Republicans were all but beaten into non existence, they held onto enough seats to stop that from happening. The Democrats aren't nearly that weak. And you could't get 2/3 of Republicans to repeal the Civil Rights acts, let alone suffrage. So...Has anyone ever tried?
The hard right has been warning everyone the government was coming for its guns for decades. But under Democratic or Republican administrations, no one has. I still have mine and so do my neighbors. Has anyone taken yours?I'll leave you to your imagination on what the consequences could be for tampering with the 2nd amendment.
I disagree, but it doesn't matter, because that's not why women were treated the way they were. Men thought they were inferior and enfeebled. That was the bias. They couldn't be trusted with the serious and weighty matters of government. This nation wasn't founded to serve as a defacto theocracy.Single women had the right to own property before the suffrage movement,married women didn't, they were under their husbands.
Women couldn't speak at political meetings .
These things coincide with biblical principals.
Even within churches, most people don't think you have that context right. That's because if you read it the way you're reading it then you have a real problem when you come to 1 Corinthians 11. But a secular state isn't a church in any event.Women are to be in silence, man head of woman.
Several, but none of them the liberty.Do these things ring a bell?
I read that. I didn't read anything that actually made the case.Like I said, "your idea of equality is biased."
Might as well have been.
There is no chance a bunch of sissie liberals are gonna rise up and destroy anything.
No Whitehouse means we've been attacked and you can ask Japan what happened last time somebody tried that.
Wont be a chance of another 911 with Trump in, so don't even try to go there.![]()
Okay, everyone has GOT to see this video, heeeelarious (only 1 minute) https://twitter.com/lachlan/status/785595392385687552
When I see a post by TH all I can think of is Charlie Brown's teacher going Wah Wah Wahh... ..wah wah.. .. wah wah wah wah
Polling and data analysis isn't a guess. You could say it's an educated guess of sorts, but there's more science to it than not.
Here's some help from a nice wiki sum of FiveThirtyEight's approach:
During the U.S. presidential primaries[FONT="][FONT=sans-serif] and [/FONT][/FONT][/COLOR][URL="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_presidential_election,_2008"]general election of 2008[/URL][FONT="][FONT=sans-serif], the site compiled polling data through a unique methodology derived from Silver's experience in baseball [/FONT][/FONT][/COLOR][URL="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sabermetrics"]sabermetrics[/URL][FONT="][FONT=sans-serif] to "balance out the polls with comparative demographic data."[/FONT][/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=#222222][FONT="][4][FONT="][/SUP][/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=#252525][FONT="] He weighted "each poll based on the pollster's historical track record, sample size, and recentness of the poll"[/FONT]
[/FONT]
The result?
In the final update of his presidential forecast model at midday of November 4, 2008, Silver projected a popular vote victory by 6.1 percentage points for Barack Obama and electoral vote totals of 349 (based on a probabilistic projection) or 353 (based on fixed projections of each state).[538 11] Obama won with 365 electoral college votes. Silver's predictions matched the actual results everywhere except in Indiana and the 2nd congressional district of Nebraska, which awards an electoral vote separately from the rest of the state. His projected national popular vote differential was below the actual figure of 7.2 points.
The forecasts for the Senate proved to be correct for every race.
You don't get that from a lucky guess.
Well, yes. Yes I have. There's been an advance in technology that allows anyone interested to do that. If you haven't you really should. But you don't have to trust that technology.

Here's a link to a fellow who really gets into the problem from a scriptural perspective. To him it all hinges on the usage of siago. I think you'll appreciate it, agree or not.

The "Groper and Chief" has fallen to the mid 30's in the polls - double digits behind his Democratic opponent with 28 days to go.i spose it depends on whether he dies in office or the dems run hillary again in 2020

There's no chance a bunch of deluded conservatives are going to manage the same...
Pretty pointless if you're just gonna go the boring political label route...
Apart from the blood of Christ, we're all evil. Trump, however, seems oblivious to it. Even revels in it.
He's not Satan. He's a lawless, profane man who is given over to the idolatry of his own self. He loves tyranny, applauds greed, and lacks basic self-control. His heart is given over to acquisition and knee-jerk vengeance.
You can poll on that point too, but I don't see a lot of people sitting this one out. The ratings for the first debate tell you that the nation is interested in this contest.I'll give yuh that it's interesting.
But it's all factored in with the number of voters going to the polls in the recent past.
Not everybody voted.
You should check out the link and the science. Then we won't have to have a conversation about observable rotation sans time stop photography.I've never seen a real time photo or video of earth from far enough out in space to prove it and neither have you.
What is that supposed to mean? Again, it's a process. That's what it takes. No polling of our electorate supports the things you want to see done. You couldn't make the numbers to call the convention. Just not happening. Women and minorities have a political voice and vote and you couldn't repeal suffrage or the Civil Rights act even if you managed to keep them all quiet on the point.I reckon you've never heard of the people.
What infringements? I'm curious about what you see as an infringement. It didn't happen when the Democrats had the numbers to pass anything they could unify on, which right there should tell you about the worry factor on the issue.No, the hard right is fighting to stop the infringements on the 2nd amendment.
It really isn't. If you like I can produce quotes, writings from the period that illustrate it.This is Liberal propaganda.
Some were, like Jefferson. But I don't recall saying that they were in the first place and I'm not sure why you bring it up. It's apparent that the founders weren't installing a particular religion, weren't infusing Christianity into the fabric of motto and creed.The founding Fathers were not Deists.
What's the relevance of that question?H many people in the churches today lived as an adult before 1920?
It really isn't.It is you who has the problem with Corinthians chap 14.
Well that's one way to never change your mind about anything.I don't even have to go there to know it's just watered down gender friendly lies.
Reminds me of the old, "And Judas went out and hanged himself...go thou and do likewise." Or, context is important. So is the original tongue.All the things I quoted were in place at it's ringing.
Only if you close your eyes tightly, which is always an option.You've literally made my case.

At any rate, they looked at the numbers, called it and got it right. You don't end up with that kind of accuracy accidentally. Nothing is infallible, but the odds are strongly in their favor, looking at the track record here.
