Really? Because I seem to recall you saying that military officers should break the law to avoid getting in a war. :^)


I said merely on firing nuclear weapons. Any and all orders to launch nuclear weapons should be ignored .

So laws you don't like should be broken, but laws you do should be followed?

But other people are self centered too? And you're not...

Why, because it's a rural, red country in a Democratic state? Because they vote the way they want, not the way you want them to vote?

They can vote for whomever they please. That's what we have elections for. It is a fact though barring highly unusual circumstances the candidates they vote for in statewide elections will not win. The delegates and senators they elect will not be in the majority anytime soon.

Donnie tried to appoint anti-vaxxer Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to head a vaccine study commission but that thankfully went bust.
Crimes committed by Muslims will be proof of a pan-Islamic plot and Islam's inherent evil. On the other hand, crimes committed by non-Muslims will merely be the acts of mentally ill lone wolves who do not represent their professed belief system at all.
The probability of someone secretly participating in homosexual acts is directly proportional to the frequency and loudness of their publicly professed disapproval and/or disgust for homosexuality.
If Donald Trump accuses an individual of malfeasance without evidence, it is almost a certainty either he or someone associated with him has in fact committed that very same malfeasance to a greater degree.

Oh Pence, it doesn't work like that.
US Vice-President Mike Pence has urged special counsel Robert Mueller to "wrap up" his investigation into alleged Russian meddling in the 2016 election.

...

"In the interests of the country, I think it's time to wrap it up," he told NBC News early on Thursday morning at Joint Base Andrews.

The vice-president added the administration had provided more than a million documents to Mr Mueller's investigation team.

The investigations are in the interest of the country. If Trump truly did nothing wrong letting them run their course and come to that conclusion reinforces faith in our institutions, if your boy (and maybe you...though nothing indicates that yet) did break the law that also reinforces faith in our institutions that it will correct wrong doings.

Though you have a PR coup with the released prisoners, we know you saw Hamilton so you're not going to throw away your shot. This completes all I know about the musical Hamilton.
"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.

True. Montgomery Co. has the highest pop in the state with about 1 million whereas Calvert Co. is fifteenth with around 89,000. It takes 11 Calvert counties to match Montgomery Co which surrounds DC's northwest and west sides. It is politically irrelevant.

EDIT: Kevin Kamenetz, 60, Baltimore Co. Executive (Spiro Agnew's old job), died of cardiac arrest this morning.

He was considered a candidate for the Democratic nomination for Governor this year.
