    Did you know that P2025 proposes that all federally funded public high school students need to take the military ASVAB. That exempts students in private schools, right? Maybe any charter or private...

    toomuchbaloney replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Hahaha. Trying to gas light us that the opposition to specific treatment and care for transgendered youth is an attempt to prevent self harm is just laughably dishonest. I bet you don't even believe...

    toomuchbaloney replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Well, since I ran a regional PICU for 10+ years, your assessment of what I sound like couldn't be more wrong. "Non government conversion therapy"? Nongovernmental, as you say, implies that the...

    Exactly. That observation dovetails nicely with the reality that conservative states with consistent republican political leadership have sadly high child poverty rates and higher infant mortality...

    toomuchbaloney replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    No kidding... education is not the same as medical treatment but government intrusion is government intrusion. It almost sounds like you don't know that parents decide, with medical professionals, to...

    toomuchbaloney replied to Tweety's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Which Democrat bills? I call baloney. At which point in a health matter is it appropriate for the politicians to dictate the care? Define late term abortion and tell us what the data...

    toomuchbaloney replied to Tweety's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Abortions ARE medical interventions. Trump specifically spoke about abortions up to and after the birth and it wasn't even the first time, for pity sake. You can't explain that away. There's nothing...

    But Republicans believe that those considerations should include the opinions of lawmakers and politicians over the opinions of the patients, their parents and their physicians. Their rhetoric about...

    toomuchbaloney replied to Tweety's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    You should share a citation about late term abortions because it would be interesting to know where you fill your head with such silliness about them. You seem to be confused about the use of the...

    toomuchbaloney replied to Tweety's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Trump and other Republicans continue to lie about late term abortions because the lies agitate the right wing voting base. It's exactly like the MAGA lies about election fraud, or an illegal immigrant...

  20. The Trump Thread

    toomuchbaloney replied to Tweety's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I think that people manipulate Trump in politics because he really isn't about policy, he's about power. Do you remember during his term that close associates suggested that Trump's policy generally...

    Unless those decisions involve termination of a pregnancy, right? Then the state's politicians get to decide even if one is an adult and married. The contradictions are

  24. The Trump Thread

    toomuchbaloney replied to Tweety's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I think that Trump recognizes that P2025 is not going to campaign well for him and so he denies having anything to do with it. None of that suggests that P2025 wouldn't be implemented in a Trump...

    What a sad attempt to create a strawman argument about 010621 by making some false equivalence to 9/11. I shouldn't be surprised by these sophomoric attempts but I expect more critical thought from...
