Mr Lasastryke 09/10/20 12:18:14 PM #252:	just looked up what xp was talking about and red sox never said "Come on guys, Republicans are too smart to make such an argument." i ctrl+f'd the word "smart" in that entire topic and he did say mueller was smart a few times, but he didn't say "republicans are too smart" to back up the claim that a republican didn't make an argument. what actually happened was that red sox claimed that barr didn't make a prosecutorial judgment. after that, he defended barr making a prosecutorial judgment. this is the flip xp was talking about. red sox then responded by saying "I only learned that Barr had made such a determination during those 13 posts." so yeah, all in all, i don't think what red sox did there was that terrible...? basically he just made an incorrect claim about something he didn't know. yes, it's always dumb and wrong to do that, but i hardly think it's "see, THIS is the ultimate example of why this topic has such gigantic issues with red sox!" as a sidenote, this actually took place last year, not in '17 or '18. --- Geothermal terpsichorean ejectamenta <cite>Mr Lasastryke posted [p:944438862] in Politics C...

The whole fabric of Southern society must be changed, and never can it be done if this opportunity is lost. Without this, this government can never be, as it never has been, a true republic. Even in his own party, Stevenss idea was viewed as extreme. Nineteenth-century Republicans believed in an ideology of free labor, in which the interests of labor and capital were the same, and all workers could elevate themselves into a life of plenty through diligence and entrepreneurship. By arming Black men with the ballot, most Republicans believed they had set the stage for a free-labor society. They did not see what the emancipated saw: a world of state-sanctioned and informal coercion in which simply elevating oneself through hard work was impossible.

Corrik7 09/10/20 10:37:20 PM #281:	Some of you should ask why the courts are deciding this issue. The Green Party filed this lawsuit not the Republican Party. https://www.jsonline.com/story/news/politics/elections/2020/08/20/election-commission-deadlocks-whether-let-green-party-ballot/3404370001/ The Democratic Party is trying to keep the Green Party candidate out because they moved during the process and provided their new address later on and their old address earlier. Democrats say this should keep the candidate off the ballot. Because "Unspoken at last month's commission meeting was how the Green Party could affect the presidential election. Democrats fear the liberal party could take votes away from Democratic nominee Joe Biden and Republicans hope such a situation will help GOP President Donald Trump. " This again seems like an issue where Democrats tried to do something right before deadlines then cried foul on Republicans because of the deadlines instead of the actual issue. --- Xbox Live User Name - Corrik Currently playing: Spider-Man (PS4), Quantum Break (X1) <cite>Corrik7 posted [p:944463267] in Politics C... [t:78954518]...</cite> <quote>Some of you should ask why the courts are deciding this issue. The Green Party filed this lawsuit not the Republican Party. https://www.jsonline.com/story/news/politics/elections/2020/08/20/election-commission-deadlocks-whether-let-green-party-ballot/3404370001/ The Democratic Party is trying to keep the Green Party candidate out because they moved during the process and provided their new address later on and their old address earlier. Democrats say this should keep the candidate off the ballot. Because "Unspoken at last month's commission meeting was how the Green Party could affect the presidential election. Democrats fear the liberal party could take votes away from Democratic nominee Joe Biden and Republicans hope such a situation will help GOP President Donald Trump. " This again seems like an issue where Democrats tried to do something right before deadlines then cried foul on Republicans because of the deadlines instead of the actual issue. </quote> ...
