Whoever said he was brilliant?

You forgot Nazi Fascist.

I disagree that former presidents are the only ones qualified to critique a sitting president. Bush never saw any action. Cheney didn't serve at all (there are those who view him as co-president). Nor did Clinton. However, those who act as "journalists" ought at least to go over there and...

Karl Marx, 1818-1883 Plus ca change, plus la meme chose.

You're including those who are obsessed with Kim Kardashian? Those who can't distinguish between "lose" and "loose"? Those who don't know the name of the vice-president? Who can't find the US on a map, much less Syria? If not, how do you decide who qualifies and who doesn't?

Chuck Todd isn't Commander-in-Chief.

And all-black hotels. And diners. And schools. And restrooms. And theatre balconies. And . . .

Of course there's always the CME. Or the melting of the polar icecaps. Or the toxicity of the oceans. Or drought. Or famine. Or an ebola pandemic. Or all those children at the border. Lalala.

History is being rewritten all the time given how fluid it is. If, for example, Reagan et al hadn't screwed things up so badly thirty years ago, we would be in a very different situation now, or there might not be a "situation" at all. Or one could go back to our support of the Shah (we'll...

The majority don't vote now. What will motivate them to do so in future?

If you care, it sounds good. However, most people don't care. They only want to get on with their lives and be left alone. They have no interest in leading. So they let those who are interested do it. That's where politicians come from.

Speaking of Indians . . . When most Americans think of Native peoples, if they think of us at all, they think of Thanksgiving and its benign legend of Pilgrims and Native Americas sitting down together to a shared meal long, long ago. Unfortunately, the collective American gestalt places its...

The Indians were screwed long before there was a government. As for why so many on the "left" trust "Government", I can't speak for them all. But I trust the federal government far more than I trust Christians (speaking of hypocrisy) or those who are out for nothing more than the buck (even...

Theoretically, yes.

Particularly when those on the right aren't even aware that there are questions to be asked.

And Jefferson not only wrote the Declaration of Independence but also owned slaves. So I guess that makes him a hypocrite and we can ignore whatever he may have said or written. Who else among the founders owned slaves? Hmmm.

Yeah, that'll work.

Could it be because you're not asking simple questions? Could it also be that you don't like the answers being given? Maybe you should ask the Indians for their views on "immigration".

Who am I to defend Moore? I don't even know him. But what he -- or anyone else -- does with his money is his business as long as it's legal.

The chief reason it takes so long is that there are so few people with so few resources to do the vetting.
