2024 Presidential Race

Downs is not a life threatening genetic issue. There are some that will lead to a very short and extremely painful life after birth. It's very clear you have no idea what that means and the decisions that must be made

 

[C-south]

In both cases, the right-wingers are on the busybody end of it.

As a “libertarian” you seem a bit more unhinged lately.

 

[C-south]

It's all ******** on both sides, as far as I can tell.

Trump may actually do something on energy independence but we'll see.

You said she was going to make housing affordable and this was your answer on how she was going to do it.

 

[Vol737]

People have gonna to anti-abortion rallies and asked them if they would adopt. I’ve never seen anyone say yes.

I don’t like the idea of killing big game animals like elephants. Do I have to lay out huge sums of money and open a wild life preserve and bring them in because I’m opposed to that? Also, adoption in the US got all lawyered up and covered up in red tape to where adoptions costs upward of $50K+ per child. I know because I have family members that stepped up and adopted two children. Low to middle income people can’t afford that as much as they would love to adopt.

Is Trump going to do away with congress and the courts?

Of course he is. He said he's gonna be a dictator from day 1. That's the one thing he hasn't lied about.

 

[Buddy’s Bandit]

Another question for the liberal….

Why into name calling conservative Supporters?

 

[Buddy’s Bandit]

Of course he is. He said he's gonna be a dictator from day 1. That's the one thing he hasn't lied about.

Never said that….did say he would take some executive action on Day 1 which he should do.

On to the next issue….

I think SpaceCoast was being sarcastic.

The Biggest Names from Jeffrey Epstein’s Unsealed Documents

In December, U.S. District Judge Loretta Preska ordered the documents to be released.

Nope.. You have to do better than that. That isn't a released list. That is an opinion piece.

Helpful hint: read the title of the article more carefully next time.

If I know Ron Paul (and he hasn't lost his last marble), his first order of business will be to get rid of the Dept. of Government Efficiency.

yeah I mean the premise is kind of ironic here

Even if they do good things on the net for 4 years, the next guys won't.

Even if he does do something to promote it, I don't think it matters.

The US became energy independent during Obama's second term. He had absolutely nothing to do with it (and can make an argument it happened in spite of him), but it happened.

 

[n_huffhines]

You said she was going to make housing affordable and this was your answer on how she was going to do it.

No, I didn't. I said she's pledging that and that you should run the other way.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Pregnant teens and Mom's being forced to carry kids with severe birth defects to term should knock on your doors seeing if you'll adopt or pay their upkeep for 18 years.

So the side claiming diversity and inclusion is ok with killing those who are different?

If you believe in equality do you not believe they have an equal right to life?

Isn't that the nature of libertarians?

Years ago we looked into adopting, thought maybe we could upgrade over the two we had but reality hit quickly. We couldn't afford it, well to clarify, we could have afforded it but couldn't have afforded to raise the kid once we go it.

 

[volbeast33]

Much respect.

My parents were foster parents, had 37 children over 15 years. Usually 3 at a time, and "special needs". Both of my little sisters (now grown) were foster kids that my parents adopted as toddlers. 1 of them was born addicted to drugs and the other was born HIV positive (and still is) They are wonderful girls and I adore them both. Much much respect to the foster parents out there doing things right. It is a thankless job, and the money barely covers taking care of and providing for the kids...but the real reward is knowing that you're helping kids who deserve better. The 1st little girl that my parents adopted died from cancer. It really scarred my mom especially. I know first hand how challenging it can be sometimes. Lots of sleeping in hospitals, travelling for treatment etc. God bless you and your family for what yall do. May He give you all strength, peace, health and happiness.

Thank you. It has been more of a blessing than hindrance although it is definitely tough at times. I’m sorry about your sister.

We’ve adopted through foster care and even though we didn’t have to pay that kind of money there is still way more bs involved than there should be. We did come out of pocket for close to $10k for a lawyer with our last little girl.

Never associated with a real one.

For the moment, let's ignore the birth defect thing.

Why the hell should anyone but the father and mother be paying for the upkeep on a child?

Oh hell. Never mind. You're just trolling again.

 

[volinbham]

Same. I just don’t understand the shaming that happens when folks actually vote for who they want to be president based on personal and objective reasons.

I actually voted for Gary Johnson in that I thought he was the best candidate. I voted Jorgeson and now Oliver to keep the L ticket getting votes but I don't have the enthusiasm for either that I did for Johnson.
