Hopefully when this is all said and then you will be vindicated and Trump will be impeached and everything will turn out fine and dandy.

Hahahahahahahaha.

Excellent rebuttal William. You seem up to date with everything! This is a sad life you live.

It's really not. I can't say that for your crew.

Wil,

My flight was delayed this morning so I've got some time. Do you not find it interesting how your entire political world view changed because transgenders going into bathrooms? Or was it because you want to be able to strike kids and that's not liberal? Or because obama was a secret Muslim? I forget!

I mean, none of them know anything about anything, but as a PR hot tip I would maybe not structure my constant whining around implicitly conceding I committed other crimes.

That kind of shows why they are miserable...

People were laughing at me, and I was truly stressed about it. I couldn't wait until it was over, which I said many times.
Your feedback loop is as bad as trumps.

I wouldn't hold your breath hoping for anything better, but by all means lead the way if you're inclined. Show how to have a civil discussion about a topic you feel is important. I've watched several attempts fail spectacularly because trolling and disingenuous/dishonest posting are allowed and put to maximum advantage by posters like JiggyMac and others.

Take that, Obama!

Consumer groups are making a last ditch effort to stop the Trump administration from stripping nursing home residents and their families of the right to take facilities to court over alleged abuse, neglect or sexual assault.

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) announced plans in June to do away with an Obama-era rule that prohibited nursing homes that accept Medicare or Medicaid funds from including language in their resident contracts requiring that disputes be settled by a third party rather than a court.

Trump trying to screw over the elderly in nursing-homes in pursuit of his Obama vendetta. The man is not mentally fit. Many people are saying he paid prostitutes to piss on a hotel bed just because Obama had slept there. Everyone knows it.

I don't know if arbitration clauses are the answer, however tort reform is certainly required in order to bring the costs of healthcare down (not just nursing home care). I suppose which would you rather - either arbitration or simply you can't sue at all? Tough call here.

Same as you and the others you admire. You can even send me abusive PMs like some of them do if you like, I'd still cheerfully buy any of you a pint.

With defense like yours, who needs attackers?
So if I abuse you by PM you'll buy me a pint? You're a strange fellow chez.
08-07-2017 , 12:31 PM
I'll also buy you a pint if you abuse chez by PM. TIA
08-07-2017 , 12:32 PM
The abuse is not required. It's of no importance to me either way.

Even arsenal sypporters make the cut.
08-07-2017 , 12:42 PM
Make sure to BCC me
08-07-2017 , 12:48 PM
Chez,

For the sake of convenience how about you just send me $5 and I'll get my own pint?
08-07-2017 , 12:49 PM
Well named,

I will abuse Chez via PM for $5.
08-07-2017 , 12:57 PM
Pints should be supplied in advance to elevate the quality of the abuse.

Uh-oh.

Quote:
Donald Trump’s most prominent Silicon Valley supporter has distanced himself from the president in multiple private conversations, describing at different points this year an “incompetent” administration, and one that may well end in “disaster.”

Peter Thiel’s unguarded remarks have surprised associates, some of whom are still reeling from his full-throated endorsement of Trump at the Republican National Convention. And while the investor stands by the president in public — “I support President Trump in his ongoing fight," he said in a statement to BuzzFeed News — his private doubts underscore the fragility of the president's backing from even his most public allies. Thiel’s comments may sting in particular in the White House as they come amid a series of hasty and embarrassed departures from the Trump train, as conservative voices from the Wall Street Journal’s editorial page to the floor of the US Senate have begun to distance themselves from the administration.
Uh-oh.

Quote:
Senators Tom Cotton and Ben Sasse have already been to Iowa this year, Gov. John Kasich is eyeing a return visit to New Hampshire, and Mike Pence’s schedule is so full of political events that Republicans joke that he is acting more like a second-term vice president hoping to clear the field than a No. 2 sworn in a little over six months ago.

President Trump’s first term is ostensibly just warming up, but luminaries in his own party have begun what amounts to a shadow campaign for 2020 — as if the current occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue weren’t involved.

Again you want to line the pockets of corporations, this time at the expense of the elderly in nursing homes. How about we leave them with the right to pursue justice through the courts and leave it to the corporations to train their staff not to abuse people?

How do you feel about trump's vow to "open up the libel laws", Mr. big tort reform concern?

You think monetary awards in courts equal justice. How cute.

Sure, or prison or whatever for the perp, depending. Speaking of perps and prison and self-pardons.... and pee.

It takes a lot of gymnastics in my opinion to try to elucidate what harm comes from using the word "******" on the internet, but you know, there are many other ways to say the same thing.

I think talking about things like this is worthwhile in the context of the general modding of this forum.

Just another example of the social ineptitide of 2+2ers. Saying such a thing isn't just wrong, it's insane.

This is the last time I'll respond to your posts, as I'm putting you on ignore. When 7even comes along, I'll put him on ignore also. I have no intentions of interacting with you.

Lol you just fail so consistently at understanding the idea of "degrees" of anything. Like, everything has exactly two states. In your universe, having a pet either is or is not like having a child; there is no in between. This also occurs in your political beliefs.

You sound like a pretty ****ty pet owner, to be honest.

Also the fact that you are forced to put 5ive/6ix on ignore because you can't handle him consistently clowning on you makes you a massive pussy.

No, I'm just a realist. I'm not a real pet owner, I inherited my pets. I do, however, like them and pay for them to be taken care of medically. My wife used to cook for the dog to be a better food supply for him and his medical bills were just ridiculous. All of that was fine.

But for some reason, pet ownership became a badge of honor in this country and people started priding themselves in how much more they loved animals than the next person.

Complete idiocy. People like to talk about how they care more about animals than other human beings. How could anyone say such a thing?

I don't love animals but I surely wouldn't abandon them or hurt them. I keep it in perspective. Animals and pets are fine, I just don't run around pumping my chest about how much I'd sacrifice half the human race for them. This topic is one of my "pet peeves". It's so annoying.

Many people annoy me. You annoy me. Yet I don't put you on ignore. Only certain behavior makes me put someone in ignore and 5ive meets that criteria. I literally have 2 people on ignore, him and bladesman. Just because he changes his handle doesn't mean he gets a pass. **** him.
