    But he was found guilty for murder and imprisoned. How did the media hide from that? it was covered pretty well in print. There was no tv cameras allowed in the philly courts. 
    The media didn't cover it up- you don't think the conservative radio scene and pundits tried really hard to push the anti-abortion narrative on this one? it didn't gain much traction because there was no tv coverage. it's pretty much that simple.
    in the end though... Gosnell was tried, found guilty and sentenced. for murder- thank goodness.
     
    How this ends up being like what trump made abortions out to be... no clue- that dude is pure cuckoo-bananas.

    Even with the hysterical headline the Washington post article actually says Mueller agreed with Barr s assessment and his misgivings was with media reports not Barr.
    The chasm between Collusion Truthers/ partisan media's wish fulfillment and reality is breathtaking.
    Angry that Mueller couldn't take down Trump now they've moved on to Barr with even less evidence.

    Cersei reminds me of last year's Vegas Knights, lying in wait while the Jets and the Predators beat the ever-loving bejeezus out of each other.

    Tho the Targaryeans still have at least one dragon and I don't know if The Platinum Blonde Romulan has an answer for that.

    it's kind of like "anyone but Hilary". There is a huge block of people who REFUSED to vote for Hilary- not only did they vote for ???- they voted instead for a self-proclaimed sexual assailant, racist, thin skinned, "I know nothing about polices" cheetoed-hued ******* man-baby.  so yeah- you can answer the question now. 
    A sack of wet kittens would do a better job at POTUS than trump.

    I think you might be right... we saw the white walkers all lined up and then the mist enveloped the dragons- correct?

    Loved last night's episode, though I think there a few flaws that will become more apparent once it sinks in. It's been that way the last couple of seasons though
    Questions to discuss;
    where was bran warging? If Beric played out his reason to be revived (saving Arya) , did the hound as well, or has he got another part to his story?  Is Cersei sailing to Winterfell to pounce on the North before they recover? (episode 4 preview) Those that survived- what is there end story? Assuming they didn't survive just have a happy ending. I expect they have a role to play in the future. I've read a lot of the complaints about the episode, and much is usual internet complaining, but the only two real complaints I have are that it was too dark, and that not enough characters died for the size of the battle. As for the darkness, I will rewatch with my contrast adjusted. The second is that too many characters survived. You can't tell me that Sam , who can't fight, survived being at the first point of attack , along with Grey Worm, Jamie, Brienne, etc. Ghost as well. We saw with Shaggydog that a hoard can easily overrun a direwolf, but Ghost somehow survived.

    Liberals and Conservatives are both the same, they are beholden to money. It's just old money (liberals) vs. New money (conservatives)

    What we need to do is stop treating corporations and the wealthy like they're better than everyone else. Hold them accountable for the **** they do, make them pay their share of taxes to fund programs that benefit everyone. Socialism, capitalism, communism, what ever else it is these are just theories. It's how those in charge implement them that determine their outcomes, and right now the north American society isn't really capitalism, more like the rich make the laws and give themselves breaks while squeezing the middle class as hard as they can.

    MONTREAL -- Emergency workers urged another 1,500 residents of a flood-ravaged suburb west of Montreal to leave their homes Sunday, one day after floodwaters broke through a natural dike northwest of the city and forced some 5,000 others to flee with only the clothes on their backs.

    Who funds Ontario Proud?
    "The list is a who’s who of developers, anti-union groups and construction agencies — all that have already benefited from Doug Ford’s policies (two sweeping labour law reforms that will make it less safe to work in Ontario, and the promise that Ontario is “open for business” which apparently means gut the Greenbelt.)"

    Interesting opinion piece outlining the difference between "criminal prosecution standard of proof “beyond a reasonable doubt” and a lower standard — the preponderance standard of “more likely than not” — relevant for counterintelligence and general parlance about facts"

    Quite honestly, I need my kids to teach me stuff, so the sooner they learn the better. It would be nice if they let me know what the password was to the wifi too. I've completed my chores, so I don't understand the holdup.
