    Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
    empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
    pain in abortion.

    Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
    which has begun. To abort life is to end it.

    There's no "code", tell us all what you think about people that would pay foreign interests to give them information about their opponents, we're all waiting with bated breath.
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
    - -- Aristotle

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.

    I asked,

    "Posted by Stretch View Post


    Do you think Trump is wrong to think incoming oppo info should be heard and then determine if it's useful and accurate?

    I think that if a candidate is contacted by a foreign party purporting to have adverse info on that candidate's opponent, that he/she needs to refuse it. It would be the candidates' aides, of course, who would first be contacted. They should be instructed to gather all personal identifying info they can, inform the candidate, then it should be turned over to our intelligence agencies. It doesn't matter whether the info is true or not. What matters is the attempt by an outside foreign agency/country to influence our elections.
    I'm puzzled as to why you think this should not be questioned.

    HILLARY TO TREVOR NOAH, DAILY SHOW 11/2/17:
    "And it's part of what happens in a campaign where you get information that may
    or may not be useful, and you try to make sure anything you put out in the
    public arena is accurate."

    So, why didn't I hear your voice arguing to "lock her up" along with all the Trump supporters?

    For paying a foreign interest to gather "intel" on her political opponent. I'm pretty sure we've been clear. Paying a foreign company to gather questionable intel on your opponent seems to be okay in your eyes if the person doing the paying is a Democrat. Just sitting and listening to them speak and not paying anything? Not so much, but only if the listener is somebody you hate a bunch.

    I've noticed that you still have yet to provide any credible evidence that "Hillary" paid for foreign intel.

    You have credible evidence that this happened as you related it?
