    Considering that liberal has it's etymological roots in the word liber, which means free, I would have to almost agree. I think there are a small handful of politicians that one could accurately call liberal.

    I'm starting to understand how your statement that it has never happened is constructed. If you just choose to disbelieve and ignore all evidence to the contrary, you can see the world however you want.

    Liberalism in the US basically means exactly the opposite of what it did 70 years ago. Once you understand that, then it becomes clear how close Liberalism and Fascism are in the US.

    No, it's a very long road from liberalism to fascism. What we have in the US is not liberalism, it hasn't been for 70 years.

    That's what he has to think it is. The only way one can wholeheartedly support bad ideas, is to believe all other ideas are worse. If it requires living in fantasyland and making stuff up, then so be it.

    It's not bullcrap. Every single socia...err...Democrat I know wants single payer. They all admit that the ACA which they all fullheartedly supported is now a failure, and we should impose single payer instead. And don't act like every Dem in congress wouldn't vote for it if it came up.

    The answer is not very far. First of all, there are no liberals in the Presidential race. You have 2 authoritarians vs 1 ... something. Second of all, there are 72 journalists in the White House Press corps. A recent survey of them, found that not a single one was a Republican. While this is just the WH press corps, studies of political donations by journalists consistently find that at least 90% of donations go to Democrats. There is nothing insightful about your post, other than it says more about you than the actual state of journalism in America.

    They put the cameras inside the rocket, pointed out a port in the side of the rocket tube. Just outside the port there is a small mirror angled at 45 degrees. The mirror is aerodynamically protected. In the shot at 1:50 in the video when two rocket sections separate you can see some of the mirror housings, they are the little blue smooth bumps sticking out the side.

    The problem isn't that the President wants to close Gitmo. The problem is that the President wants to transfer the detainees to the US. That's what sane people have a problem with, and also that's what Congress refuses to fund repeatedly every year, and that's the level of funding the President signs into law every year. If he really wanted to fulfill his promise he would have just released all the prisoners and signed a new executive order closing the prison, and Congress wouldn't have been able to do a lick of shit about it. But then he'd lose his excuse as to why it's too hard.

    Maybe, it didn't sink in, but coal country has traditionally gone for Democrats. If she loses that, she needs more than Florida. Wisconsin is more in play than it has been in 30 years as well. There were hundreds of thousands more votes in the GOP primary than there was in the Dem.
