Wouldn't it be more interesting to know how it is working out in the 14 or so industrialized countries we regularly compare ourselves to? I continue to be amazed that apparently no one in the United States besides myself has figured out that some important parts of medical care, although...

Congressman Darrell Issa was seemingly on his way to making investigation of the Benghazi incident a lifetime work. Only when he retired did we learn that the hearings may have mercifully come to an end. Now I think he is making noises that he would like to return to Congress. So I suppose there...

I heard her say she took refuge in another office, not her's. The person who's office she hid in was interviewed on TV. I saw the interview but can't recall the other person's name or official role. There seems to be a lot of confusion in the reporting of this event, and undoubtedly many...

That's actually the "you're an asshole" symbol they are flashing.

We are of course getting the picture we ask for. One can not justify the measures taken by extremists. When I said it was necessary to look backward, I did not intend it to mean that there is, in history, a justification for terrorist measures. There never is. What I meant is that one should...

It is necessary to look backward into history to understand the Iranian position.

Do you support removing Donald Trump by virtue of the ballot box? You don't obviously. Your inconsistency I take note of. You are no supporter of our democratic Republic. You are a traitor to your country. Do not be surprised if your country treats you accordingly.

You are one of the bad guys supporting the leader of the insurgents trying to overthrow the U.S. government. So your opinion means nothing. You should be in jail. After a fair trial of course

However Captain Obvious has expressed a third, seemingly valid, opinion which is the one based on mutually assured total destruction, and it has the appeal of a level playing field behind it as well. It's an opinion not without some real world evidence in its favor. Not taking a side here...

Opinion The Economy Does Much Better Under Democrats. Why? G.D.P., jobs and other indicators have all risen more slowly under Republicans for nearly the past century. By David Leonhardt Graphics by Yaryna Serkez Mr. Leonhardt is a senior writer at The Times. Ms. Serkez is a writer and...

This is probably wrong. There may eventually be double digit inflation, but it is very unlikely to happen "in the next few years." It won't be because of Federal deficits, not in the next few years anyway -- not without intervention of external factors beyond our control.. The double digit...

interesting thread. thanks to all contributing.

Please stop posting crap from crap sources. Grow up, and get a life.

Thank you!

Elizabeth Warren is among the brightest, best educated, most capable members of Congress. I would trust here judgement over that of many other members.

What's happening right now is very concerning. I underestimated its importance until people who apparently believe these strange things infiltrated the Republican party, and now the Congress of the United States. It is very hard to explain Republicans Like Cruz and Graham, they can't possibly...

Will the Republican Party self-destruct? It would seem that could be where it's headed. I don't think many of us, I know I didn't, realized the extent to which terrorists, social misfits and sociopaths had infiltrated (by invitation) the Party. Now that these lunatics are being outed I would...

Glass micro balloons are sometimes used to give impact resistance to epoxy potting compounds. Each micro balloon is hollow and virtually indestructible. As such they ought to add weight and insulating value. Those blankets could be very comforting on a cold winter night. Sort of the equivalent...

There may bee some confusion concerning the difference between "Christianity" and "Selling Pillows on Late Night TV." It would seem the fundamental problem "my pillow folks" face is there are still a few too many educated. In another few years, however, if we don't get behind liberal...
