    I meant the Washington kind, not the Panhandle kind.

    13 reasons to be glad Moore lost I'd say gridlock could be a 14th.

    Looks like that person views Alabamans about the same as Trump views Mexicans. A bit worse, since Trump did allow that there might be some good Mexicans too.

    Interesting admonition. I've never started to read one without finishing. Though it took quite a while with the Citizens United mess. Scalia doesn't go as far as Thomas, which is probably why he didn't join the opinion I noted. Contrast with the article I linked: I'm convinced by the mixed...

    But are they the good ones, who are usually so accurate?

    You might want to change that to Thomas, since Scalia didn't join that part of his opinion in Greece v Galloway I'm a fan of Thomas' opinions on various subjects but not that one. Mainly because Pennsylvania. We had state religions in the founding era.

    Well, they seem to be planning to vote. They're also speaking about it. Well, they're doing it on FB, so using corporate money to do it, so they might be $peaking about it. And it is close to an election, so that might be bad. Unless FB is a pre$$ corporation.

    Pretty broad brush. I went to high school in Alabama. I'm FB friends with several former teachers and fellow students. All seem pretty appalled.

    Roy Moore 3rd rail?

    No. I just thought you were interested in that subject when you asked me: So I talked about why it matters to me and asked whether it matters to you. Not sure why that's so bad?

    Roy Moore 3rd rail?

    What I wrote does suggest it happened more than once, something I can't prove. It doesn't, at least to me, suggest "all those cases." Now that I've answered your questions twice, how about answering my question about why his case was dropped? Does it matter that Congresscritters can't violate...

    The article in the thread about those settlements said: That looks to me like the lawsuit filed against him was indeed dismissed, just as Hastings said. Because it's apparently OK if Congresscritters violate our civil rights. Does that matter? I guess not. Why shouldn't they violate civil...

    It seems those settlements are imposed on Congresscritterz without their knowledge or consent.

    I'd say this is true of Moore. Some allegations against him... That's sometimes bad. Follow the link back on my post to see when it's not so bad.

    Two different 11 year old girls wanted it bad? At least, that's what French courts must assume unless proven otherwise? WTF?

    Roy Moore 3rd rail?

    If he had impeccable character, I'd have a problem with this:   Congreff shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof... He sees an exception that escapes me. Do you?

    So Charlie Rose finally did something funny? OK, OK, I know it's not really funny. But something is wrong with me and picturing him doing this made me LOL.

    Actually, jocal has a creepy database. I have a knowledge of how the search function works that has led people like you two to speculate that I keep one. It's beyond my technical skill to create a better database than the forum, as I have said many times. My database is the same as yours: the...

    There's a wrong scale and a creepy scale. Some may not even register on the "wrong" scale. I gave an example in the nuked thread on this topic: a guy I still consider a good friend who had a relationship with a close friend of mine when he was 50 (which seemed ancient at the time) and she was...
