The prudent attitude toward power and anyone who seeks or wields it, regardless of political or economic persuasion, is skepticism.

After decades of living with the practically available political alternatives, my voting philosophy is: elections play a sizable role In determining the size and composition of the outgroup (those who the law binds but does not protect). I vote for smaller outgroups.

The fundamental problem Is that the court has arrogated to itself the power to make law. There is nothing in the Constitution that grants the court that power.

Do they not understand that their work is mostly done? They have a court that will find a case it can use to declare personhood begins at conception. What more do they need, at the federal level? Why keep trolling the electorate with a widely unpopular political agenda?

My baby sibling and fam emigrated to Ireland two years ago. The nibling starts university in Dublin next fall. The bread, beer and coffee are good, there’s always a bus or train, and none of the cops have guns. People don’t involuntarily flinch at every loud cracking noise. No regrets so far.

A thing that drives me bonkers about this is that I have spent a fair amount of time outside the US and I found folks elsewhere are able to distinguish between the US Government, whose actions they may abhor, and people who happen to be from the US. Behave like a decent human being and you’ll be ok.

Noting that something is currently settled law, or the law of the land, or established precedent is not a pledge to keep it as such. It’s weasel wording designed to provide later plausible deniability for supposedly moderate Republican senators who vote to confirm.

I grew up in the Pacific Northwest near Seattle and “acrossed” is the one verbal colloquialism decades of being corrected by New Englanders hasn’t shamed out of me. I have never written it that way.

I don’t judge addicts harshly. People who think addiction is personal moral failure or a sign of bad character do and I don’t make that mistake. Those people should probably avoid coffee, the morning withdrawal will make them even meaner.
