No more checks and balances.....

That will be a thing of the past now that the rePUTINicans will be voting Trump's innocence. HAIL KING TRUMP, he can do no wrong now that he is KING. You may kiss my ring now.

It may not come to that. Even this one sided Senate is feeling the heat of public opinion (75% to be exact) that want the Senate to call Bolton and other witnesses to testify. If they don't, they'll be hell to pay come November and they know it. I'm not happy with McConnell's shady dealings either, but it may not be all that bad-

You mean people can see it is a sham trial witnesses or no and come November, Moscow Mitch, Lindsey Graham cracker, Barr None and president CHUMP will all be gone?

I agree, no checks and balances.

So what do we do? Elect more democrats?

LOL.

An 'exact' 75% huh mchill. Care to tell us where you got this number, how it was arrived at, and then retract your exaggeration 'exact'.

There's nothing 'exact' about the number, mchill should retract his exaggeration, and so should you if you think "three quarters" is 'exact'.

There is nothing about the method. The issue here is mchill getting a bit too carried away. He might have said about 75% but he said 'to be exact'?? he might like to explain how 'exact'.

Mind you on the scale of exaggerations it doesn't come close to your exaggeration about there being no roads without goobermint.

Stop the silly nitpicking; both Mchill's and my statement were accurate.

Roads pre-date goobermint, there are thousands of miles of private roads. There's nothing exact about any poll, especially doubtful when rounded to 'three quarters'. Words have meanings, you blokes make exaggerated claims, not hard to speculate why, weak.

Someone who uses the "word" goobermint also says words have meanings????
Roads may predate civilisation, but society would collapse in a heartbeat if shared-ownership of the road system didn't exist.

The issue was mchill saying 'exact' when it was not, and No1 saying no roads would exist without goobermint. Talk up your doomsday scenarios all you like, that is why I had to give them both a rap over the knuckles with a ruler.

Yes, I think so.

First, by continuing to use that grade-school mauling of "government" you are only confirming that you are too young to be here, by the site ToS.

Second, name one. One road that pre-dates government. Keep in mind that I live in Europe, where a. governments are millennia older than your attempt at oligarchy and b. we founded your first governments to begin with.
There are roads in England that pre-date even the Viking trips to your country by centuries, and roads in Italy centuries older than them - all built by the Roman government. There are roads in Egypt and Iraq (if you barbarians haven't bombed them) thousands of years old - and there was also the Thousand-gated Thebes and Ur of the Chaldeans.

Pre-date? Jeez, my national lottery pre-dates your entire country!

Not while your country is populated by people like... that, and you.
