Oh my.

Of course the unappellated eohippus, Ms Ed, the High Priestess of Moloch to the primitives, is upset, because the guy's not enthusiastic about abortion.

The stolen seat needs to stay open
 
At wherever cost. 

The issue's being opened up for discussion, and Ms. Ed doesn't like it.

<<<has said for years that in all human affairs, nothing, but nothing, is "final."

It'd be good for Ms. Ed and other women's-libber abortion enthusiasts to understand that.

12. Is it really a stolen seat?
 
Last year did the Senate not do just as Biden suggested when he was in the Senate?

14. Yes, that seat was stolen. Also the "tu quoque" argument is a logical fallacy.

^^^the primitive's trying to give the impression he knows Julius Caesar as a close friend, using Latin like that.

Please! Try with all your might! Take it to the streets! Show America what you're really about!

I'd like for the blue Coloradoan primitive to explain why the "well, your side did it too" argument is a "logical fallacy."

It makes perfect sense to me.   They set the precedent, all we're doing is following it.

The stolen seat needs to stay open

The pain gets even more intense, doesn't it?  It grows, daily.  With each win, teh Donald is driving you off the next edge.  Your limited mental capacity will not allow you to understand what is happening to you.  With each Tweet, your media is being sidelined and your schools are descending into self-inflicted mental retardation.

I so loathe you.  I feel no sympathy.  I revel in your irrelevance and your approaching deaths.

I hope it is, most painful.

 :bird: you and where you have led this country.

This congress should increase the number of Supreme Court justices to eleven, tomorrow. 

Or reduce it to seven.  And LIFO should be utilized in the process.

Damn, that's an idea.

And a possible one; Congress can increase or decrease the size of that body at will.

It's long past time we got a Supreme Court more reflective of popular attitudes, instead of one that always tilts left.

That one-vote margin determining the 2000 presidential election was too close for comfort.

<<<still waiting to find out why it's a "logical fallacy."

And then there's this nonsensical use of an obscure Latin phrase, to make it seem as if the primitive knows something about it.

It's perfectly okay for attorneys--such as Tanker here and (so God help me) even MsPiggy, the msanthrophe primitive, and other bona fide attorneys on Skins's island, to use "tu quoque"--but if a young whippersnapper of an obscure primitive of whom one's never heard before, uses it, it's just pretentious and shows a lack of class and taste.

Yeah, talk about a wasted life.

Better had she stuck with writing--her talents at describing growing up female and Jewish in New York City during the 1940s are awesome--than turning to something for which she's never had any discernible talent, the law.

Why people persist in ignoring talents they have, and trying to use talents they don't have, escapes me.
