RemoveBush — Your own quotes show that “ex post facto” does not apply here. A law that makes something illegal, subject to greater penalty, or easier to prove after the fact is ex post facto. The change here was the opposite.

Shane — In this country, the accused enjoy a presumption of innocence, not guilt. Michael is therefore justified in asking for evidence of guilt, and you are out of line to ask for evidence of innocence, first.

Also: Gallileo’s main opponents were the university professors wedded to the pagan Greek cosmology of Ptolemy. He ran into trouble with the Church b/c he was arrogant, his success drew much envy from his colleagues, and b/c too many churchmen were convinced that Ptolemaic “science” was taught by the Bible (which it wasn’t, btw). Galileo himself was a strong believer in the Bible

I’ve already told you a number of times in the past two+ months, mikey, that my public high school produced a Nobel Prize laureate in Physics, a former Secretary of State, a Newbery Medalist, at least one Pulitzer Prize winner and asked you what luminaries went to your supposedly superior private high school. Is it so hard for you to answer?
Is it also too hard for you to use a period (.) rather than a question mark (?) in a sentence that isn’t a question? Or don’t they teach punctuation in the “superior” private schools you attended?

Jake also made another factual error. He repeated above that Hitler banned all political parties in 1939. This is wrong. Hitler banned all political parties on 14 July 1933. And there were plenty of American Republicans who thought this was a great idea. Henry Ford thought Adolph was A O K.

Now the link to the thread is that Republicans seem to have a problem with names and dates and facts. When you’re doing something illegal, it doesn’t make it okay to answer NO on the day you’ve changed the law and pretend that that makes all the past wrongdoing right.

And also like to point out the hypocrisy here. So, this guy is okay with you and his fiddling of his residency requirements. But making illegal immigrants legal through a change of the law, an amnesty, or some inclusion program, that’s not okay. Eh? Very odd. It’s essentially the same principle.

I have found 90% of Jake’s proofs are factual errors or distortions. But then Republicans seem to have a problem coordinating mind and mouth. I hear science is working on a vaccine.

Just to correct your error, Jake, the Democrats did NOT control the US House for the entire period.
In fact, the Republicans would’ve controlled the House from 1931 to 1933 if a few members didn’t die (making it, I believe, the only time when the minority party became the majority). But, in 1947 the House went from a 243/190 Dem/Rep membership to a 188/246 Dem/Rep House (IOW, Republican Majority for 2 years). In 1953, the House went from 234/199 Dem/Rep membership to 213/221 Dem/Rep House (IOW, Republican Majority for 2 years.
But, if you want to talk about banning political parties, the Republicans are the only ones who’ve attempted to do that in this country’s history. (Perhaps I shouldn’t tar all Republicans with that brush–only Joe McCarthy. You might want to read up on the HUAC hearings and see how one man attempted to infringe on the First Amendment rights of American citizens.)

A bunch of kids playing in a sandbox in their own backyard. Another kid, who doesn’t even live on the same block as the other kids, comes along and kicks sand in the face of the kids who were playing and they are just supposed to sit there and take it.

Nice.

Thank you………..

Thank you.

Hating the Repukian MAFIA daily, oh and you too Jake the Fake, you are still a liar and scum.

Didn’t you know? Little michael gets *hard*, by pretending he has a pair of b*lls – because he’s such a little coward. It’s all of the self loathing…
