I appreciate it. Though I think half the site put me on ignore. liberalnarb Jun 2016 #18

That's funny! I think you are one of the very few Bernie supporters that I don't have on ignore! Walk away Jun 2016 #77

Okay, not sure how I should feel about that. I'm not ditching Bernie, just supporting the nominee. liberalnarb Jun 2016 #110

It might help if there was a sentence in this OP saying "you will be asked to agree muriel_volestrangler Jun 2016 #102

I was taken aback by that notice also. HubertHeaver Jun 2016 #83

There wasn't even a notice, it simply did not let me rec. herding cats Jun 2016 #91

Yes, seems fair if both sides follow the rules, which, from past experience, I expect will happen. InAbLuEsTaTe Jun 2016 #121

There will be assholes in both camps awoke_in_2003 Jun 2016 #135

No way we can allow that tRumpster fire to win under any circumstances. Period... whatever it takes. InAbLuEsTaTe Jun 2016 #145

As always, thank you, Skinner. DinahMoeHum Jun 2016 #9

Let's make Clinton, our next president and Sanders, the next Chair of the Senate Banking Committee! RAFisher Jun 2016 #43

If he was 20 years younger I would say nominate him to SCOTUS but banking chair? No. cstanleytech Jun 2016 #59

He is not qualified to serve on SCOTUS. No law degree, not a member of the bar, no legal experience. JonLeibowitz Jun 2016 #65

Not a hurdle. cstanleytech Jun 2016 #68

It has been a long while since a SCOTUS justice was not a member of the bar Gothmog Jun 2016 #126

True but that doesnt mean it cant happen and if Bernie was 20 years younger he might make a good cstanleytech Jun 2016 #128

Secretary of Treasury The Green Manalishi Jun 2016 #148

Assuming he doesnt have to be a lawyer to lead it what about the DoJ? cstanleytech Jun 2016 #150

I'd sure be happy, but he really has the expertise to hit Wall Street. The Green Manalishi Jun 2016 #154

Ya but as the head of the DoJ he might be more willing to pursue criminal cases against Wall Street cstanleytech Jun 2016 #155

I've been suggesting Secretary of the treasury. Amimnoch Jun 2016 #62

Thank you, Skinner! leftofcool Jun 2016 #45

I take it that you are not going to reset the hidden posts that happened prior the new TOS? William769 Jun 2016 #46

When will they be reset to zero? Nt Logical Jun 2016 #142

Since the "term of service" requiare a "signature" why was this not on top when I logged in question everything Jun 2016 #47

I agree with the changes, but need to ask if the most aggressive/extreme gun advocates get a pass hlthe2b Jun 2016 #61

So essentially, JonLeibowitz Jun 2016 #70

Thank you for displaying so explicitly the level/tone/tenor of discourse we can expect. hlthe2b Jun 2016 #74

You are asking for the TOS to not apply to a group you despise... JonLeibowitz Jun 2016 #79

I asked Skinner to clarify approach during highly emotionally charged events. hlthe2b Jun 2016 #80

Yes, and to be clear we're allowed to oppose legislation brought forward by Dems, per the TOS. JonLeibowitz Jun 2016 #82
