    That's a great story. How someone can be against that type of action is beyond me, unless they're in on the scam. Then it absolutely makes sense. Otherwise, all you're doing is letting your hate for the individual doing the action cloud your thoughts on the action itself.

    I can dislike people and still approve of their actions. It doesn't seem some folks can do that.

    Listen to this video. If you find fault with this type of reasoning, then again, you're either in on the scam or you just hate the people doing the action so much that you refuse to accept they might be on to something. Try not to get worked up about the person tweeting it and his comments - I don't care for the account.

    I was giving you your best argument, not putting it in your mouth.

    You have good basic command of English however I'm not gong to unpack that other than reply as I would to one of my university students (teach a class for tax reasons).

    1. Hasty Generalización. Assumes Democrats “rarely” prosecute their own without sufficient evidence.


    2. False Dilemma. Suggests the only reason for higher Republican conviction rates is DOJ bias, ignoring other explanations.


    3. Strawman. Misrepresents the opponent’s argument as only “Democrats are cleaner.”


    4. Tu Quoque (Whataboutism). Implies Republicans should weaponize the DOJ because Democrats supposedly do, rather than proving actual bias.

    OK, I'm gong to find a place with smarter reich wingers as I've had it up to.. It like conversing with 90 IQ teens at best and who knows what creatures like notagain and NY_Hood are.

    Now you're a university professor. How do you have time to fit all this stuff into your busy astronaut/peace corps/land baron/man of international mystery schedule?

    I think a 90 IQ teen would have been able to write a much better goodbye note.

    I give a few lectures a year, the only thing my masters has been useful for.

    Yes, my years as "peace Corps" sniper were the best and worst times.

    Quick thinking, high energy, and comfort with chaos, can make someone well-suited to CEO roles and emergency medicine too.

    I should become a medic.

    I have been invited to a couple of smart people only groups. They are a bit too smart for politics though. I'll start to look around.

    Whoa! I'll bet they're in for a surprise.

    Happy trails. Let me know when you actually do leave, instead of just claiming it, so we can all synchronize the time to weep over your loss.
