nicknotes comments on Jun 1, 2018:

With the Christian right religion trumps patriotism. Plus many are racists. In their Heaven there are only white people.

Does anyone else find Trump's pardon/clemency talk odd?

nicknotes comments on Jun 1, 2018:

Trump is sending a message to Michael Cohen and Paul Manafort that if they don't flip and spill the goods on Trump that he will pardon them so they won't go to jail.

What Samantha Bee said was wrong. She should never have called Ivanka "feckless".

nicknotes comments on Jun 1, 2018:

feck·less lacking initiative or strength of character; irresponsible. "a feckless mama's boy" synonyms: useless, worthless, incompetent, inept, good-for-nothing, ne'er-do-well; I suppose Samantha has the right to express her opinion.....I wonder why people are not complaining when her father insults people and calls them names?

No One Can Be Forced To Participate in Patriotic Rituals Supreme Court Law - Trump Goes Vs.

nicknotes comments on Jun 1, 2018:

Very good....I'm a patriot....but there is way too much emphasis on flag waving, anthems, etc. IMO it is the religious hypocrites that are causing all this patriotic turmoil.

Poor People Often Don’t Survive To Become Seniors Who Vote

nicknotes comments on Jun 1, 2018:

If you have good health care you can survive many health problems. But we allow the poor to die without health care. It is a disgusting Republican "don't care" attitude.

nicknotes comments on May 31, 2018:

Plants can be fun. When I was a child I planted flowers in a window planter in our 5th floor apt in the Bronx. I would check them everyday when I woke up, watered them and sprinkled plant food. It was an amazing experience to watch them grow into beautiful flowers.

Quite the “profit,” isn’t he? [cnn.com]

nicknotes comments on May 31, 2018:

You know...he might just be able to pull this off and get Christians to give him the money. Do you remember that Evangelist who said he would die unless they gave him 12 million? He got the money and he didn't die.

Should we have more than 2 major political parties in the US? Or is 2 enough and more is messy?

nicknotes comments on May 30, 2018:

I think our system would be more democratic if we had several additional viable political parties. Right now our system is rigged because the rich have control of the Dems and Republicans.

Love the rain

nicknotes comments on May 29, 2018:

Yes...I'm sure Alberto hammered you. The flooding and storm surge must have caused a lot of problems. I live in Ponte Vedra, just south of Jacksonville so I can sympathize. We got a lot of rain also but no real wind. We had Irma and Matthew last year.

A classic.

What if the United States had proportional representation instead of a winner take all system?

nicknotes comments on May 29, 2018:

I'm in favor of a system with several "at Large" representatives that are awarded to third, fourth, etc parties that achieve a predetermined vote tally. This might encourage more political parties.

Gibson's father was awarded US$145,000 in a work-related-injury lawsuit against the New York Central Railroad on February 14, 1968, and soon afterwards relocated his family to West Pymble, Sydney, Australia.[14] Mel was twelve years old at the time. The move to his grandmother's native Australia was for economic reasons, and his father's expectation that the Australian Defence Forces would reject his eldest son for the draft during the Vietnam War.

nicknotes comments on May 25, 2018:

As long as you are alive there may be a solution to your problems. .....but dead is game over. At one of my first jobs I had a supervisor who made my life miserable. I was thinking of quiting just to get relief from this bad situation. But on Monday I went to work and discovered that my supervisor had been fired. My next supervisor was a gem. So you never know what might happen to change your life.
