    Filibuster broken: Props to McConnell and the Senate for saving the High Court

    I disagree it has worked well. Maybe better than a straight up popular vote, yes, I agree. However, it hasn't worked well. It does end up electing someone, I will give it that. Well, except for that one time the Supreme Court had to decide who won.

    A lot of good information here: Ranked Choice Voting / Instant Runoff- FairVote

    Filibuster broken: Props to McConnell and the Senate for saving the High Court

    I prefer a ranked voting system over popular and electoral college.

    Filibuster broken: Props to McConnell and the Senate for saving the High Court

    Unfortunately you do not understand that being unhappy with someone winning the election does not automatically mean that the other person was the one I wanted to win. This is something you must understand. I dislike it and the popular vote. Again, you sit here and act like a computer. You...

    Filibuster broken: Props to McConnell and the Senate for saving the High Court

    I am trying to not take this personally because I have stated to you at least once if not twice that I did not vote for either Trump nor Hilary and support neither. Continuing to insinuate any other way is coming close to calling me a liar and I am not going to tolerate that from anyone here. I...

    Trump’s Incoherent Syria Policy Is About To Be Tested

    This time should have been enough. If it wasn't we should just get out of there and let the rest of the world do what they wish and allow more to die. We either stand for what this country says they believe, which is that everyone deserves freedom or we walk away from a chance where a leader has...

    Trump’s Incoherent Syria Policy Is About To Be Tested

    They have at least 30 more left. So we spend that much money to reduce their ancient Migs down to almost half and then what? Nothing? That is still 30 more planes that can drop chemical weapons. I am not making conclusions, I am expecting the worst because I think it will happen. Maybe I am...

    Trump’s Incoherent Syria Policy Is About To Be Tested

    I have no problem with this as a start of something bigger. A start of actual progress toward a removal of Assad from power. However, all Trump did was blow holes in the sand and say "bad Syria" and then state that this was not the start of anything larger. Way to show them, Trump. Like I...

    Trump’s Incoherent Syria Policy Is About To Be Tested

    If we are going to give Generals credit for every war move America makes and not the President, then boy did we have a lot of failed Generals during the 2000's. He is former KGB and basically just walked into another country, took half of it over and no one fired one bullet. Yet when Iraq goes...

    Trump’s Incoherent Syria Policy Is About To Be Tested

    Yay another politically biased reply. It just isn't "liberals" that have been on top of Trump and his Russian ties. Republicans have been going after him as well. Regardless of his ties, Putin isn't an idiot. He loves chaos. He does not want peace. He has America reeling from scandals regardless...

    Trump’s Incoherent Syria Policy Is About To Be Tested

    We have to have the support of the rest of the world in order to come out of this on top. We can not take on Putin without having multinational support. Trump needs to tread very carefully right now.

    Filibuster broken: Props to McConnell and the Senate for saving the High Court

    People in this country confuse me greatly. Do people want majority rule or not? It seems it depends on which way the wind is blowing for their party. Simple majority rule was something that Republicans do not want in a Presidential election but it is ok in the Senate? Do you wish for one party...

    He lost one airfield and is still in power. What message does that send?

    Trump’s Incoherent Syria Policy Is About To Be Tested

    Trump says a lot of things. Hopefully Mattis is running the show when it comes to military action instead of Trump and his entourage. Syria is a failure of the international community and up until today, a failure of Trumps. It is disheartening that children had to die in such an horrific way...

    Trump’s Incoherent Syria Policy Is About To Be Tested

    It should not be ours alone. It should be the policy of all NATO countries. Actual war crimes are being committed. Unfortunately, due to the Bush administration and the poor execution of the Obama administration in Iraq, this country is unable to effectively help countries that actually are in need.

    Trump’s Incoherent Syria Policy Is About To Be Tested

    They did not. We will see if this one can. So far, we just sent about $60 million dollars worth of missiles into Syria and Assad is no closer to being removed and tried for war crimes.

    60 vote super-majority

    It is simple, because their base did not want them to. They wanted to force the Republicans to strip away a rule that they themselves more than likely wanted gone. Now they get to please their base by standing up to Trump's appointee and at the same time they only need 51 votes next time they...
