The bigger question to me is, why was a team that had a final record of 1-12 playing in the sectional semi-finals?

The bigger question to me is, why did UNC lose to Dook?

Sure, I've been called a xenophobe, but the truth is, I'm not. I honestly just feel that America is the best country and the other countries aren't as good. That used to be called patriotism.

1 out of every 10 people shot to death by police were unarmed. I'm not sure I think that police shooting to death 90 unarmed citizens is a stat I would hang my hat on.

Further, the several hundred who were shot to death by police were armed with a weapon other than a gun is pretty ambiguous. Butcher knife? Screw driver? Pocket knife? Nail clippers?

This is poorly written and does little to exonerate bad cops.

Bush just dropped out.

Barring the sudden appearance of a dead woman or live boy (LBJ); it's looking more and more like Trump vs. Hillary.

Look at the other articles he wrote http://www.nationalreview.com/author/david-french, factor in that his wife ghostwrites for both Sarah and Bristol Palin, plus his history of attackinganyone not from the NR's canon (including flaming liberals like Mike Huckabee) and you'll see that his interpretations of data are hardly objective.

Gott im Himmel loves Democrats.

Question is - if Cruz drops out, does he endorse Trump or Rubio?

Trump. Cruz is Trump with a law degree and an evangelical testimony. But both are rabidly anti-establishment and anti-immigrant, and so are their supporters. Rubio is slightly establishment and pro-immigrant.

And I like the German phrase. You must have been reading your Niebuhr or Schleiermacher. And clever of you to mention God in a different language to keep your fellow liberals from feinting. Well played.

“He was a great guy,” said friend Bruce Still, an old comrade from New Jersey’s Lawnside Fire Department, where Barney once served as a volunteer.

Still was one of nearly 2,000, including members of area law enforcement agencies, who turned out under an ashen sky Saturday to remember the fallen police officer at Saint Philips AME Church in Atlanta.




According to MSM, and the movement, this guy's life doesn't matter.

LOL - The Pastor's son at the church where the funeral was held is a national leader in Black Lives Matter. What you fail to grasp is that the movement is not anti-cop, it's anti institutionalized, structural racism which leads to cops shooting black 12-year old with BB guns within 2 seconds of seeing them while armed white folks talk smack to cops with impunity:

More institutional......structural......



In a year-long study, The Washington Post found that the kind of incidents that have ignited protests in many U.S. communities — most often, white police officers killing unarmed black men — represent less than 4 percent of fatal police shootings. Meanwhile, The Post found that the great majority of people who died at the hands of the police fit at least one of three categories: they were wielding weapons, they were suicidal or mentally troubled, or they ran when officers told them to halt.

Clearly, there are too many white people. White-on-white violence is out of control!

Open the borders, let more hispanic and blacks and they will take their fair share of bullets.

As Chairman of the Judiciary Committee in June 1992, Mr. Biden spoke on the Senate floor the day before the Supreme Court was set to leave for recess. George H.W. Bush was President, Democrats controlled the Senate and they were worried that a Justice might resign before the election.

“President Bush should consider following the practice of a majority of his predecessors and not name a nominee until after the November election is completed,” Mr. Biden declared. And if the President were to plow ahead and name a new Justice anyway, “a process that is already in doubt in the minds of many will become distrusted by all. Senate consideration of a nominee under these circumstances is not fair to the President, to the nominee or to the Senate itself.”
