It is happening to families who have presented themselves to officials at border points and are requesting asylum who are having their children taken from them. Add on to that the fact that an official from US Department of Health and Human Services' Administration for Children and Families testified that they "were unable to determine what happened to 1,475 children who were placed in sponsors' homes between October to December 2017". https://www.buzzfeed.com/salvadorhernandez/heres-how-the-us-government-managed-to-lose-nearly-1500?utm_term=.ijQEvNYdM#.nfQP3Vyob Mark F and The Unknown Poster 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

do or die Posted May 30, 2018 Report Share Posted May 30, 2018 SPYGATE! BIGGER THAN WATERGATE!! MORE DEEP STATE CONSPIRACY!! Catchy stuff, alright..... so I took a closer look at this "spy in question - Stefan A. Halper. Turns out that Mr. Halper is a lifelong registered Republican, who worked for the Nixon administration.....and the Ford administration......and the Reagan administration. He also had a role in George H.W. Bush’s campaign. In fact, in all this time, it seems that the only sinister thing Mr. Halper has ever been accused of .....was spying on President Jimmy Carter’s 1980 campaign for Reagan!! But of course around the web, Trumpalcoholics are bellowing about this latest proof - that all Federal law enforcement and justice entities, are totally corrupt and are filled with Soros-funded, Deep State swamp criminals. With Trump as the victim. Uranium One, Obama's phone tapping, "unmasking", the Nunes Memo, etc, etc.....and now Mueller is somehow "meddling" with the mid-term elections! Even with the BS meter totally redlining, by now.......it simply does not matter. Because In a couple of weeks, Trump will unveil some new "outrage" for his base to gorge on. Evidence? Proof? Who needs that? As Steven Miller asserts "The President is not to be questioned." Well, at least by non-critical thinkers, anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iHeart Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 Trump needs to shut up and do his job, he shouldn't be getting involved in this, Obama barely bat an eye every time he was criticized, I don't remember if Bush reacted when the Dixie Chicks opened their mouths. http://tvline.com/2018/05/31/samantha-bee-ivanka-trump-controversy-white-house-reaction/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Unknown Poster Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 Well one is a vile insult. The other is a racist slur. Both wrong, but the outrage from the right today over Samantha Bee is pretty eye roll inducing. One is way worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 Far more importantly than the usual Kardashian-TMZ talk that usually goes on in here, is the news that the US has imposed tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminum. This is going to have an absolutely massive impact on the US-Canada relationship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The C word is not specifically sexist and Ive heard guys called the C word plenty of times. Regardless, the "left" are being pretty hard on Bee. The Right? Well, not so much on Roseanne... So even if both words cancel each other out (they dont), only one political side in this thinks both incidents were wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Secondly, you dont have to keep repeating yourself or trying to make this a defense of your boy by trying to make it about me. Thirdly, the point is, one is an insult. The other is a racist slur. Thats a fact. Fourthly, how about Trump and the White House's condemnation of Roseanne? lol Edited May 31, 2018 by The Unknown Poster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atomic Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 There are two people in this thread. One condemns both racist and sexist insults (me). One defends the sexist insult leveled by Samantha Bee (you). You can bring left and right into it all you want but the proof is right here for all to see.

If, by your logic, c_nt is a gendered insult, would that make pr_ck one, too...? I mean, both words are considered extremely vulgar, so would a man calling another man a pr_ck be considered sexist?

Atomic Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 Some reading for you chauvenists. https://www.xojane.com/issues/on-using-the-c-word Quote Of the four people who have caused me the most grief in life, two men are referred to as “assholes” while the women are referred to as “c*nts.” Except “c*nt” doesn’t mean the same thing as “*******,” “****,” “shithead,” et cetera. They may all be derogatory and you may use them against any gender, but you can’t dispute that “c*nt” is named for the female genitalia. It can’t not be specific to a gender. Whomever you use it against, the slur is meant to imply someone who behaves like a difficult woman. There isn’t really a male version of “c*nt,” and “****” just doesn’t come close to “c*nt” in offensiveness. The Unknown Poster 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
