Please expand upon your statement, providing facts as to how those other state's riparian rules are "all better".  Bigger does not mean that they are better.


Good! Now for a speedy trial and bury them under the jail for 20 years!


Imagine that!  Trump is President and the sky has not fallen.


Lusting after an arsenal the size that Paddock has stockpiled is sensible?
Your kind of "sensible" isn't sensible.


The scenerio  Jan 18 2017  Newly minted POTUS Hillary Clinton seized and passed out and was not able to push the red nuclear button when Mexico refused to pay for the wall, Donald Trump would have pushed the button  :  /


Some conservatives like to think of Canada as nothing more than a little USA. Therefore in their minds if it worked in the States it'll work here to. Simplistic at best


Yeah... there's nothing wrong with Weld County.


Most people who point to Jesus have no idea about his character. But, I find that any topic about money often brings the faith-haters to the surface. Churches have nothing to prove to you. They answer to God and God alone. Despite all of this, we love you and continue to pray for you.


Well, there actually is a fix for "stupid". Unfortunately the only fix available for "stupid" isn't legal -- yet. :-)

But I really need to talk to Darwin about that theory of his, apparently the gene-pool-cleaners have been shirking in their duties in ridding the human-gene-pool of all its disasters. I say we remove all guard-rails and warning-labels from everything for a few generations. That should bring things back in balance somewhat.


You missed my point about just barely noticeable or whatever words I used above to indicate non-obviousness.

Imperfections that are just barely noticeable normally aren't yelped to death.  They are tolerated.

The important thing is not to have the "reassertion" of the will noticed by everyone, but known to the self and thus to God.

So get back to the point I made.


Fully agree, Doug, on your central point: it was a terrorist attack whether or not the guy was actually linked to ISIS (who implausibly claims responsibility for all terrorist attacks).

You can create terror without having a political motive. One feminist, Virginia Held, said that domestic violence was terrorism because it created terror. Sounds logical to me.


He has WAY better judgement than crooked Hillary


So, how did the statutory limitations prevent recommending charges against he provider of the bribe, when the same statutory limitations allowed recommending  charges against the recipient of the (alleged) bribe?

This question remains unanswered. Did the RCMP have any outside "help" in getting to this conclusion?


Okay, with your theory, Trump's presidency should be annulled because some voters were driven by "anti-muslim prejudice".


"Firstly, you are still benefiting richly from the livelihoods that were stolen from the Indigenous..."

I am not seeing too many Indigenous folks making efforts today to live like it was 700 years ago, with stone age technology and having a life expectancy of about 30 years, the likely way of meeting one's end to be at the end of a spear or arrow from an enemy tribe, or at the teeth and claws of a wild carnivore, or at the sub-zero temperatures of a food-sparse winter.

I AM SEEING a lot of indigenous people CHOOSE to use computers and watch TV and ride snowmobiles and read and write and drive cars.

So I guess the Indigenous are GUILTY of stealing from themselves, ending their own traditional livelihoods, in their own choices? Look, I am okay with doing them that if that is what they choose, I just want to describe their choices using the phrases you chose in your efforts to toss a guilt trip on the white man...


Single payer cannot arrive soon enough.

Healthcare in the USA is a national disgrace. On one hand, you have millions of  families forced into financial ruin. On the other end of the spectrum, you have CEO's taking 600% annual pay increases while steadily jacking up the prices on cheap, life saving medication. Keep in mind that this medication is developed from money from the tax payer in the first place.

The US healthcare system with for-profit insurance companies involved is the absolute worst manifestation imaginable.


Need one read a sentence further after reading MSW's confession that he thinks a writer gains consolation by writing a piece that 'ignites controversy'?

"There are very few things in this life more gratifying to a columnist than to pen a sentence that ignites a controversy."

Wow.

Read no further.

A Catholic writer who lets his intellect "attach value" to such an end is in need of long term spiritual coaching, and should out of charity suspend his writing work for the division & heat and disunity it causes or contributes to.

Rather, I think a well-formed and properly tempered Catholic writer might gain some consolation from seeing people draw closer to Jesus Christ, amending their lives, increasing their self-gift to others, etc by reading one's work.

Yet an even higher disposition than this would be to have a "pure intention", that is, to produce a work for the principal reason of loving God!

MSW is a long way off from such a more Christian approach to the work of writing


This denial from the same government that told us LHO killed JFK all by himself, and more recently that they did not and still are not listening in on our conversations without a warrant.


Let me strip it down for you and get rid of all the things that you seem to think matter.   "Business A" sells "Product A" $15.  "Business B" sells "Product A" for $75.  Who do you think will succeed?


Not to worry. When Trump is President the problems with NK will be a memory. He has a plan. Hillary Clinton would be a disaster. He's got the best people working on it. It's going to be great. No one else is as smart as he is when it comes to North Korea. North Korea will not take advantage of the system again. It's going to be huge. I've even heard that the beloved supreme leader, Kim Jong Un wasn't even born in North Korea...but we'll let the people of North Korea work that out.


..toeing the party line, fighting for their jobs.


There are multiple reports on this subject.  If you are genuinely interested in reading them Women's Ordination Conference and Call to Action have resources that you can request be sent to you on the subject.


Just cut the salaries of the over paid state and municipal workers, that make 4 times what I make and have to live on, with a family of 4, why should we all pay more taxes to support there lifestyles. If they create an income tax or sales tax, I am leaving Alaska, then the state and municipal workers can fend for themselves.


Not disagreeing but respectfully asking...What white supremacist policies and procedures continue to work in our institutions without restraint?  I am not talking about the people of all colors that don't hire people of a different color.  That happens to all races.  I am not talking about the small percentage of bad cops.  They also affect all races.  What things, specifically, are you speaking of?  "Without restraint" seems pretty exaggerated but I could be wrong.  Would appreciate your opinion.


Glad they didn't get hurt worse. An adult moose doesn't have to try hard to crush puny humans.


Yes, you still follow the norms and dictates of the local bishop or conference, but you don't have to! If a decision of the local bishop conflicts with that of Opus Dei, then Opus Dei takes precedent. That after all is what a personal prelature is all about.
And why does Opus Dei "hide its light under a bushel"? Why don't OD priests put "O.D." after their name?
I am fine with people who want to wear spiky chains and so on, but one area in which Opus Dei oversteps the mark is the requirement that its members go to Confession only to an Opus Dei priest. This implies that OD priests have a special power to forgive sins which other priests do do have.


man trump should run for governor of alaska, he would fit right in lol. he could make alaska great again lol. the sad part is alaskans will vote for trump in the election.


Read more closely.  I never accused you of saying that.  But Bolcon has repeatedly said that for the Church to insist on an all-male priesthood is to hate women.

Know what it is you don't know.  You know nothing of what I know or don't know about Canon Law.  You supposedly teach at the college level, but to begin your discussion with the unsubstantiated, general accusation that "my] background in both [sic] canon law, theology, and the Vatican II documents leaves much to be desired" is amateurish.

FYI:  Canon Law sec. 216 says that "no undertaking is to claim the name Catholic without the consent of competent ecclesiastical authority."  Not only is the AWRCP in violation of this Canon, but so are those who, like Bolcon, encourage and aid and abet them.

Finally, I never agreed that "Roman Catholic Women Priests 'are trained but are not'."  What I agreed to was that women "priests" BELIEVE they are trained but are not.  Get the difference?

Your post gets a D-, prof.


Your not that clairvoyant


30 TO 70 percent? If you are accusing someone of committing crimes, and your data can't get closer than 30 to 70 percent, then ya, it's discriminatory because it is pure opinion without fact. Narrow it down to a 5% spread like 30 to 35% or 70 to 75% and then name names.


Agree, the oil corporations are doing very well. In the first quarter of 2017, BP made $1.4 billion and ExxonMobil made $4 billion, and the former Chief Executive Officer of ExxonMobil, Rex Tillerson retired with a package worth over $180 million. The $700 million per year tax credit given to BP and ExxonMobil has to be stopped, because the oil companies are not struggling.


Suggesting the UN Security Council is going to solve the issue? Laughable comment from PM Gomer.


You and others here are doing your best to convict Donald Trump of sexual assault via hearsay. When the shoe was on Bill Clinton's foot, the left did all they could to protect him and his hideous wife. So yes, you are well schooled in hypocrisy.

Openly boasting about groping women is a far cry from exploiting the power of the presidency to seduce interns, cover up rape and sexual assault. Allowing men with a psychological disorder to act out their fantasies by entering women's restrooms and insisting it's some sort of social justice issue is simply bizarre.

It appears to me that you have plenty of time to do your own research. Maybe you should broaden your search from Thinkprogess and Huffpo.

Sorry you missed the last one but at least you agree then that Hillary belongs in prison.


Unfortunately for Richard Nixon the people who worked on uncovering his misdeeds weren't compulsive liars.  Fortunately for Obama ...


Ducks terrible on the offensive glass and pretty good on the defensive boards?  That’s a wild imagination.  This is Oregon’s best offensive rebounding team since per possession numbers were tracked in 2002.  The Ducks are currently 22nd in the country in offensive rebounding.  Their downfall, similar to last season, is defensive rebounding (183rd in the country this season).  Much of the defensive rebounding deficiency is likely attributable to all the shots Oregon is attempting to block leaving offensive rebounders free to roam.


The "What's Aleppo" comment was important and noteworthy because we get to hear so little from Gov. Johnson.  He had to make every moment count.  The other candidates have gaffes, but have a lot of other material around it to basically drown it out.  Gov. Johnson had to make the most of every opportunity to shine and he had a pretty major failure instead.


I absolutely agree we as a Church should address the issue of racism in this country, in my native country, and everywhere else. I'm not sure what role removing statues should have in that process, because the racism obviously runs deeper. In some cases, removing statues may do nothing more than create an illusion. In my opinion, if the removal of statues is not accompanied by a systemic effort to uproot racist ideas and attitudes, we won't have accomplished anything. So perhaps the removals should come at the end of a process, as a sort of culmination of a national effort to excise a cancer, and their presence till then should serve as a reminder of what remains to be done.
Will our bishops take the lead in bringing an end to racism? They could....but I too have some dubias.


Like this type of deplorable? http://www.kansascity.com/news/politics-government/article167755572.html
No doubt you condone the suggestion of assassinating thea President--as long as it's Trump.


Good. It appears that Seneca got away with avoiding restrictions they should have been forced to follow. And it appears, EWEB has hidden the discussions with Seneca about this.
I also heard that Skov was for the incinerator. So I think that is your issue. He is for an incinerator that produces pollution but claims to be for protecting the environment.
So I did some research. It seems Brian Weaver (do you know who he is?) had issues with Skov. In response, supporters of Skov wrote: "Note that forest slash, by law, must be burned in the field, which contributes substantially more air pollution than a biomass facility." Translation: Such forest waste is going to get burned regardless, releasing greenhouse gas emissions and other pollution. So compared to burning and not generating any electricity, burning and also generating electricity, "under the right conditions," makes sense."
So in short, I agree. And Seneca was no worse or maybe better than slash burning. Both are bad..


Agreed.


Yes, after a year-long ATF background check, and $200 tax stamp, on top of paying north of $10000 because all legal machine guns for civilians in the US were made before May 1986, ensuring a dwindling supply to wear and tear, and high prices as supply falls.


You can't be serious.  Self-doubt from any of the far-right wingnuts on this board?


Anybody else disappointed the article wasn't about Dave Shapiro


Finally Chris, I can agree completely with you. Thank you.


Bravo D Demento,

Canadian governmt needs to do right by its citizens.  Every time this govt (all 3 levels) thinks of a solution, it thinks of how to enrich its coffer at the same time, such as tax.

Implement policies such as 1-4 as you suggested or other policies which would not sell this country off to the highest bidders (our shelters, our senior homes,  our security)

 Liberals have no moral standings, they just think about their own coffers, not the voters.
Liberals just voted for the Bombardier increase !


It's quite simple really- she wants the State to control the RB, and the printing of money.

This can only be a Zupta  plan, beautiful in its simplicity. Why even tender, when you control the printing press.

A second plus is the noise that this will create if a court battle ensues and the State loses, as it probably will. WMC vs the People.

Must give it to them, they are applying themselves...


They never tell these young girls to keep their legs together. I suppose that would be deemed as "Sexist Male Authoritarian Hate Speech"?


Truth: there are more trees in Oregon because they are planted in corn rows, readied for a catastrophic fire. Truth: it is not in the public's best interest to let the extraction industry manage forests. They manage tree farms and charge the public to recreate on them.


In nature aggressors set the rules. Our Prog-infested-Bolshevist media fits that description.
Trump's an royal a_ _hole BUT he and his family have been attacked, on a daily basis, from every angle --at one point EIGHT, simultaneous, negative articles filled columns on this site.  He hits back with another  tweet and it's 'shocking' and leaves Progs writhing in faux-pain. The laughable part:  A tweet takes only a few minutes of his time after which  presstitutes spend days in the echo chamber.  It's obvious the man understands leverage.  Sorry the snowflakes were triggered and often wonder how's that Russia "thing" is working out?

BTW: The last vestige of White House civility and decorum left on a blue dress twenty-some years ago.

My statement is fact based on the Constitution ad federal law and therefore cannot be refuted and you offered up nothing to refute if that were even possible. Also, I wasn't attempting to refute your opinion, to which you are entitled, but merely making the case, based on the rule of law, that the Paris Accord on Climate Change is invalid as far it concerns the United States. REFUTE THAT!


You raise an interesting point.  Moderate Muslims and even those who have left the religion are silenced by media outlets who could otherwise give them an excellent springboard for much-needed discussion.  Both Maajid Nawaz, founder of Quillam International, and Ayan Hirsi Ali are listed as anti-Muslim extremists by the Southern Poverty Law Centre in the US.  Tarek Fatah is seen as a right-wing extremist. Even if Muslims and ex-Muslims wish to speak out it seems they are silenced in the ever-widening circle of don't ask...don't tell...atmosphere surrounding extremism.  Khan would better serve her religion if she were to unequivocally condemn such acts, with no ifs, ands, or buts.  I think people like Khan are part of the problem, her M103 at the centre of it.   It's not that such  moderate views won't make for interesting press, it simply doesn't seem to fit the current narrative: one that seems to want to force how people think.

What a joke and waste of time and humanity!  The "liberation" of Mosul was declared 5 months ago!...so why are the Iraqi forces still encountering resistance from Isil? Hey USA, you idiots started this mess so, go back and finish what you started so Iraq can get on with it's future!.....so incredibly typical of US foreign policy!


More wonderful work from the Leaf PR department. You can expect something like this to come out after every Leaf loss. And to think, Seigel used to be a respected, objective journalist.

Personally, I'd like to see a story looking back at the efforts of Hyman's father to buy the entire Greater Toronto Hockey League (GTHL) and try to turn it into a profit centre for himself. He was eventually run out of town by angry parents.


HFD has their own issues. You really don't hear much about the inner workings of HFD until something major like this fire happens. Were the Chiefs really guiding the Indians all this time?

I don't think that adding more north/south highways to the metropolitan area would fix the problem.  As I said above, the problem is our development pattern.  Having people live ten or more miles away from work, not to mention miles away from the grocery store, the park, the school, has created a transportation burden that can't be solved by adding more roads.


This is the woman who after killing her baby was found having sex in a car. A long list of arrests for drugs and more. She was in no way able to take care of a kid. When she found out she was pregnant she should have gotten a free abortion.


IRT John Toillion: [You say, "It’s obvious she does not agree with the former and current commander-in-chiefs’ positions on military engagement around the world. As the saying goes, “You cannot serve two masters.”

Further, she took an oath when commissioned to “support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.”  ]

Are you saying that one should ignore one's principals to obey the commander-in-chief, to goose-step mindlessly along with him?  Additionally, you are equating defending the constitution with defending trump's actions.  Wake up!  trump is the real enemy of the constitution.

Monica...I could well be wrong....but I think AL did suggest that the Church can work with divorced and remarried folks relative to both the internal forum and sacrament reception, and by extension their Church status.

I am sure the Church supports sacramental marriages and is saddened if that doesn't work out....but in the case of divorce and remarriage, the remarriage/Eucharist reception deal has been addressed in part by AL, the Internal forum and the personal consciences of those concerned.

Francis has said repeatedly that these situations are highly individualized and don't admit of a 'one size fits all' deal.....think you can say that to your folks?

"In the Senate's rejection of a graduated income tax that would affect the state's richest residents more than its poorest, the House found the proposal to just use the Permanent Fund to be mean-spirited to low-income residents, for whom a dividend is a much larger percentage of income". Exactly.


I DON'T know EXACTLY what you meant. That is why I am asking. You're changing the subject.
Do you believe in the principle that if a group tasked with predicting something is inaccurate, that they can't be believed in a new prediction? Seems a pretty simple question.

But it started me thinking about it even more. Obamacare was over 8 years ago. Is this the same CBO that made that prediction? Could they have noted their errors and made adjustments? Just how similar is Obamacare to the new proposal? Wouldn't is make sense that the more similar it is the more likely they will repeat their mistake? Or, maybe not.

You asked: "How accurate was the CBO in scoring the ACA?" The current effort is to dismiss the CBO so as to render the latest proposal immune to their analysis.  They are predicting 24 million will lose their insurance. If the CBO was half right, that still means 12 million lose insurance.

Maybe there is just more to the claim that the CBO is flawed due to past performance.


...cite any Liberal MP using the term “tax cheat” in accordance with the ongoing tax reform conversation?...


my2cents: I totally agree that Civil Comments is frustratingly useless. However, that's no excuse to take out your anger on another commenter. Off-topic is off-topic.

There is a trend in modern America to judge people on the basis of what they might have done rather than what they have done.  It is not a positive trend.

You mean like all this violence going on in America and the President is just lying in bed tweeting nonsense?  See no difference between him and the Presidents he's been criticizing.  Thank God he's for all people to arm themselves with assualt weapons of their choice.  Poor vetting really poor.


Always a bridesmaid; never a bride.  Buying the dress, hat, gloves and shoes is nothing more than wishful thinking.


They might say the US is commemorating the 100th anniversary of disastrous Western intervention in the Russian Revolution by staging a disastrous Western intervention in the Venezuelan Revolution.


Alex,

Deport based on what evidence?  Because he doesn't have an Anglicized last name? Since the article doesn't mention what country Mr. Nejad is a citizen of, I think your comment on deporting is uncalled for.  If he is a US citizen just as I presume you are, then let him serve his sentence and live the remainder of his life thereafter as a free US citizen as allowed by law. However, if Mr. Nejad is not a citizen of the United States, then yes, deport him after he serves his sentence and reimburses the government.

There are many Christians who do not feel superior to, nor believe we have the right to  judge others. To practice bigotry in the name of Christ goes against the loving example of the Christ whose teachings many Christians follow. In short, you do not speak for all Christians.

As for your freedom, you can practice your religious beliefs in your churches, or anywhere you want as long as you do not use your beliefs as a tool to discriminate against others, which is against the law.


Last Patriot, the Bureau of Labor Statistics does indeed publish other forms of the "under employment rate" to reflect not only unemployed but also those able-bodied persons who don't work or are employed in part-time positions for economic reasons. Look up U9 Unemployment Rate in Google and you'll find that for the entire nation on the St. Louis FED website. I'm not sure, however, if this particular statistic is published on the state level.


So you quote the National Review and a youtube site? Who are you working for Toddy? And what is your qualification? I smell oil.


I think the police are always behind the curve when it comes to human rights.  I agree with the ban in theory to the extent that it forces groups, such as the police, to examine their institution for a culture of homophobia, racism, and sexism, all of which have existed within police culture for time immemorial.  Marching in the pride parade gives organizations a cheap way to posture and co-opt a message of inclusivity without having to earn that respect.  Even Patrick Brown marches in the pride parade while courting all sorts of unsavory hardline social conservatives.   Enough is enough, it's their parade, not ours.  Toronto police can march, just not in an organized manner in uniform.  That's a legitimate compromise, but it takes power away from an organization used to having it and abusing it.


Brian
I marked your paper on economics and was only able to give you a C -.

Although you brought out some goods points such as misdirected government spending on R&D and how much is wasted in academia and the need for adding more value to our resources, I had to mark you low as you have been reading some very old books on economics to parrot your answers.

You really must expand your reading list and learn more about sustainable supply chains and the impact of unbalanced trade on national prosperity and the updated view by leading economists on the facts that say free trade is not working for mature economies…

When you have read more updated material please resubmit your paper and I will see if you understand your topic better.

I also recommend you watch some videos on the TRUMP approach and the teachings of economist Ian Fletcher as these will cut across the brainwashed religious fanaticism that has been fed to you poor economic students for 3 decades.

Professor Citizen


If you read the transcripts of Trump's conversations with the leaders of Mexico and Australia, you have to ask yourself which is worse: the leak or the indisputable fact that the leaked conversations prove, without a doubt, that Trump is a moron who is utterly unqualified and unfit to be president?


I forgot to point out that I was using sarcastic-sans font.


Firing the coach while the team is still in first place in their division, should they end the season anywhere but first it's Bergevin who will be looking for a job.


As I have said so often you build a good team from the net out. Last year they needed improvement, despite the critics,  in at least six areas -  they seemingly stopped at Weber. For some reason Habs were on the right track, but now they seem to look like they are coasting, extremely tired and waiting for a shoe to drop rather than working to get better.


In the recent Toronto production of Louis Riel, the title character was sung by someone of German heritage, not Metis.


BRM:  Thank goodness the racists as represented by the White Supremacy movement are a minority.  I certainly don't feel they represent a majority of Americans.  Frankly, if I felt the majority of Americans shared the values of the White Supremacy movement, I'd move to another country.  At the same time, let's be frank here, there is a very real White Supremacy movement in our country at this time and, with the election of Donald Trump, it seems to be getting stronger.  That may be simply a coincidence, but it is also a fact.  Gary Crum


It seems clear that Alaska is not owned by Alaskans anymore, why?

The people of Alaska voted in 2006 for a "citizens initiative capped the legislative session at 90 days" but they ignore that!!

The people of Alaska  voted to move the Capital to Willow but they ignore that.

The Alaska law said a small oil company could earn a tax credit if they invested and explored but the Governor VETOED this in the amount of $620 million and broke that understanding! Many say this means Alaska has a bad honor system and the rule of Law is lost!

Rex Tillerson told Congress that Exxon looked for two things when considering where to invest, (1.) Honor, (2.) Rule of Law. Alaska has issues with these things!

Let's make Alaska great again and attract oil & gas investment by bringing  back the rule of law and the honor that once made Alaska the number one oil producer in the nation when Alaska was number one in the World in oil production!

Make Alaska attractive so Alaskans can sell oil and profit


Some are dumb enough to hate you for being you, most are not. You should question your perception before assuming anything of others.


ES: You make a great point regarding ad hominem attacks.  I'm a frequent poster on this site and enjoy the exchange of ideas and opinions.  Like you, I tire of the all-too-frequent trolling comments.  I read your comments and appreciate your compassion and consideration for others.

I have no problem with "persons expressing their opinions and rebutting any posting with which they disagree."  I spend a lot of time doing that myself.  However, it can be done w/o those nasty personal attacks you reference.  "Hang tough" and don't let 'em wear you down.  regards, Gary


Good catch! You may be a party stalwart who sees what should have been obvious long ago.


Had that factoid been in the article, my comments would have been reconsidered.


Semper Fi. I understand your frustration, try to do something right and it's nothing but roadblocks. Break the law and lawyers and politicians line up to help the criminals, what the heck kind of backwards system is this?


I'm sure he feels threatened by your juvenile comments (were he even to see them). How childish.


Over to you, Ken King et al. I suggest that this might be the best deal you will get from this Mayor and this city council.

Like it or not, this is now THE issue in the forthcoming civic election. Mayor Nenshi is heading to victory in a cakewalk. There will be no better offer after the election.


Like the escapees of Pandora's Box, the activist judge with his/her own agenda cannot be done away with.  They serve for life.

The long-term solution is for more Gorsuch style Justices and Federal Judges who are less likely to Legislate from the Bench.

The judiciary is a reflection of its society; the increasing growth of Red Flyover States will probably move the pendulum in that direction.  The current Congress will make many Federal Judge appointments.  That should result in more conservative--non Legislating Federal judges.


Hobson says:  "But Jesus and Paul (and Shammai) would have shared the rabbinic understanding that divorce is regrettable but permissible when the vow of fidelity, provision, or love has been broken and there is no repentance. This would include abuse and abandonment."

Jesus addressed this.  As I told you, Jesus did not say that divorce is permissible when love departs, or when the husband becomes a drag on the family's treasure rather than the provider (as when the "old man" becomes terribly sick); or when "love has been broken."  These things are not adultery, and Jesus, knowing this, still limited the grounds for divorce to adultery.  Hobson doesn't explain this away.  Can you?


Victim? It seems like she is quick to accuse people on social media as well.  I tend to lean towards number 5 of Peter's post above. Mark Nichols was part of her family.  He is in their family portraits and goes on vacations with them.


Singh is not the change candidate. Being a different skin colour and wearing a turban doesn't do that. The NDP did badly last election in large part because of moving away from progressive roots. Guy Caron is the most progressive, practical and clear spoken by far, and would delete Trudeau in a debate. I believe Niki Ashton and Charlie Angus could do a good job as well. As for Singh, we don't need another Trudeau-like platitude candidate
- people will just vote for the real thing instead. This is how he comes across to me, a lack of genuineness and lack of platform substance compared with the other candidates. It has nothing to do with his turban.


Sometimes I wonder whether this newspaper should be lumped along with the likes of Fox News and Infowars. The obsession with launching cannonballs over the political aisles is as strong with the G&M as it is with those 2.

Take this op-ed section and its endless fusillade of dressed-up low-grade gibe against the US. It's not much different than Faux's or Infowars' constant bashing of Obama when he was prez.

And every time it shows insularity to news that would inconvenience its agenda, I figure this paper belongs with Breitbart, they'd be two peas in a pod.


Clearly the market is changing and the news organizations of yesterday won't survive today. Pouring more public money into a broken model won't fix the problem. To take this proposal seriously, the first recommendation should be to immediately close down the CBC. It is long out lived its mandate, lacks any credibility, and distorts the market with its high subsidies. Ad revenue would then be earned by the private broadcasters, who would be more financially stable. The second recommendation is to address the credibility problem most mainstream media outlets have. Once these recommendations are done, then we can talk about public subsidizes.


You need to explain or justify that logic a little more clearly for me/us. IMO, not justified, also by the DA's standard, hence a manslaughter charge. They saw the new video today, like some of us and came to a decision that shows she was clearly negligent. She was the first and only to shoot, when others did not. In fact, one person was using their taser, which may have been justified. Should leave you with this thought though, this country would see scores of police officers killing "suspects" every day, if they went by this officer's overly trigger happy sense. Neither person deserved to be in this situation. :-(


Indeed. How many more spitting phlegm-spitting Chinese is McCallum to force onto Canadians?


Thay do pay high personal taxes in Norway - but also receive free higher education and vocational training systems; a very generous retirement system and and have government paid health care to boot.
Which of their programs would you like to see in Alaska? Which Alaska programs for whom should be cut?
And how much more added taxation of oil companies in a declining world oil  market do you want when shale and other cheaper oil is more easily accessible to them?


I doubt the court will do anything more than courts around the country have done with fire districts and police districts. It is a simple matter of there is no free ride.  You can not demand free services when your neighbors are paying for it.  When a fire department serving a service district does not save the house of someone out side the service district courts have ruled in favor of those departments. I suspect the same will be true should the police services for Girdwood ever make it to court.


South Korea's president blasted Trump's irresponsible and dangerous rhetoric.  Kim will not give up his weapons of their development.  Trump failed again to do anything other than strut and play the fool again. Even Republicans are distancing themselves from this TV entertainer.


BS, and it don't take a Bachelor of Science to know you have no idea of the public school atmosphere and how things really are!


Spot on, Turner. As TD said of Mr. Bowlen, “He doesn’t get the credit, and a lot of it is because he didn’t want the credit." In stark contrast to the media whore that jones was, is, and always will be. jerrah really believes that he is primarily responsible for the very dated successes of the cowboys. Mr. Bowlen has always understood its about the whole organization, but mostly about the players.


Governor Walker did not halve the size of the PFD. He capped it at $1,000.00. As recently as 2012 and 2013 the PFD was less than $1,000.00. In those years recipients would have received the entire amount if the PFD had been capped at $1,000.00. The average amount over the life of the PFD has been $1,150.00. All of this sniveling about the cap on the PFD and a court challenge at this point will indeed only serve as another distraction from resolving the serious issues related to addressing the budget deficit.


I believe every word Dr. White said. I am beyond dissapointed with GHCH... give a little and get alot but no. They would rather pay astronomical amounts of money to get temporary coverage then bend a little and keep fantastic permanent service. Apparently Jensen does not realize how damaging this is to our community! I have a three year old and one on the way that just had there doctor ripped out from underneath them.


Thank you for your reply MC.  I care nothing for this dude as an individual since I do not know him.  I have concern for him as a fellow human.   I believe we must respect human life profoundly and destroy it only when clearly necessary.  The policies that lead to the standoffs are often not based on rational analyses of probable threat, but rather on the very American attitude that killing those who do not comply is okay.  I do not impugn the opinion of the "girlfriend" personally, I do not know her.  However, since I do not know her, I have no reason to believe her over her boyfriend.   A reasonable person should question which of two witnesses is telling the truth.

I believe that police and prosecution policies teach citizens how to resolve conflict.  When compliance trumps life in police action, when police or prosecutors do not respect all persons, citizens cannot help but conclude that lack of respect and use of force is okay in resolving their own issues.


I'm not a financial supporter of HSUS or PETA.    I would love for all animal organizations to be perfect, but am grateful for many things they ARE doing , calling attention to things that need to be seen and addressed.

Corruption is rampant, but to a MUCH greater extent in governments,  and corporations that run those governments.  To those entities, people are only important as consumers, but otherwise mean nothing to them, and, like D.D., they don't care at all about the animals.


Our President has the right to his opinion as well. Especially over the laziest & most unintelligent play they will ever make in the NFL. They have the resources, money & influence to bring their agenda to light more productively without stepping on a Veteran or fan and disrepecting the sacrifices of our forefathers. The anthem is what we aspire to as a ppl & the flag is our symbol


How refreshing to watch reports of college students taking in seniors in Florida, of strapping young people cleaning up debris on the many islands, of people helping with children in shelters, and yet our young Canadians who were in these zones are complaining that they have no help from our government. What a selfish bunch of twits! As a senior who has worked all over this world, whatever happened to self responsibility? So in a typhoon in Taiwan I was supposed to whine to the consultate? In a monsoon in India, I was supposed to call the embassy?? In a snowstorm freezing cold spell in Russia, the Canadian government is supposed to fly me out??? Some people should not have passports. They are ann  embarrassment to the country. They didn't seem to know that the British, Americans and the French OWN some of those islands.


We have close to $17 billion in funds that the legislature can access. We are going to blow through that money in two years?


Well then, what are the sources of your information?


It's not like Global Warming is more pronounced at the arctic latitudes or anything...OH, wait...


So tell us, "'war hero' (Phil Long)" and 'Mount Carmel Veteran’s Service center' have just exactly WHAT to do with protests made to raise awareness of police killings of black citizens?

Absolutely nothing - except that it highlights that military worship is something the dealership feels it must pander to ...


Bytown, you can post all the misinformation you like but as I have posted so many times in regard to this article, all previous administrations did not dismiss AGs until they had found replacements. Trump has not done this.
It seems quite obvious that this administration has something to hide and are therefore ridding themselves of people like Bharara to elude investigation.

http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2017/03/10/despite-trump-bharara-won-t-resign-yet.html

Now, try to find an article that can disprove my comment. If you can't, then move on.


No, maybe, perhaps, sometimes, yes


NO. It did NOT.


Toxoplasmosis also has a devastating impact on marine mammals.  And given our proximity to the marine environment, feral cat colonies should not be allowed. https://www.nih.gov/news-events/news-releases/dual-parasitic-infections-deadly-marine-mammals


Let's be honest - a lot of the fault is down to millennials.  Now that's not simply because they are millennials - it's because they're young and inexperienced....and perhaps a little bit youthful in their ways.

I know because I used to be young too.

But also a lot of old folks are really bad drivers too.   We may have experience but we can be old and sloppy and set in our ways.

Give those millennials 30 or 40 or 50 years and they'll be bad drivers for totally different reasons than they are now.


Divided States of America


Although I follow the somewhat skewed explaination of the charges. The age of these kids and the systemic abuse of these two twisted parents screams mental incapacity. And for the DA to talk about emotional responses like I'm the one who's crazy is way over the line. Why wasn't there a psyc evaluation done on the parents? It's as if we are talking like they left the kids in the car for a minute unattended while they shopped. That's a misdemeanor. I think just because there were not physical locks on the door there were mental ones.


of the "patriarchy."


Unless Exxon has put in a crude oil distillation top unit to make diesel or fuel "oils", the condensate from the gas is more like propane or butane (in lighters).  Propane cannot be shipped in the pipeline due to it's vapor pressure but light condensates are shipped at a rate of about 40,000/daily from Prudhoe.  The joke of this "new oil" is the fact that these light condensates are not cracked from crude at the refinery, they are distilled out and fetch about $120/barrel.  Ask yourself what about 40 gallons of propane cost you.  The butanes and slightly heavier condensates are worth more money as chemical product feedstocks.  Once again our Elected Mutts have given away a valuable people owned resource.  It's just a fact, the oil companies have more intelligent folks working for them than we Alaskans have working for us.


Are you now or have you ever been?


Grossly unprepared for the conditions. Hopefully they learned a valuable lesson.


Nope, that's not how it works. America is a constitutional free Republic complete with free and fair democratic elections, and POTUS TRUMP was democratically and fairly elected, period.
Terribly sorry to inform but America spoke in November and if you reside in America then like it or not Donald Trump is your president too.

Your rhetoric comes across as childish, vitriolic, and uninformed. Trump can no more dictate who supports him than I can.

Also, I've been a responsible gun-owner for decades, I have a conceal-carry permit in my state. And, I bought an AR-15 right before the election....."IN CASE OF HILLARY, BUY AN AR", as it were.

Again, this atmosphere of division and nastiness is eight years in the making......a direct result of a post-Obama-AmeriKKKa, by design.
But we're gonna #MAGA, so no worries.


SA enough sensational journalism. end fake news - report on things affecting hawaii residents


This report is basically gossip about gossip.
Could it be that Byron York is under the mistaken impression that people beyond the Beltway are genuinely concerned about this "dossier"?  Here's the key:  "Meanwhile, staffers for the Senate Judiciary Committee are going over hours of testimony..."  Translation:  staffers are paid to make work out of this and hundreds of other sensationalized events.

It is as if the real intent of Big Media is to keep as many people as possible in the dark about any issue that has a genuine affect on U.S. citizens where they live & work. The so-called free press has been overtaken by FEDGOV bureaucracy mission creep.

I read of famine in Africa as Chuck Grassley pockets millions via the wicked & wasteful ethanol scam. U.S Government subsidizes the wholesale burning of food:  http://www.taxpayer.net/library/article/federal-subsidies-for-corn-ethanol-and-other-corn-based-biofuels


Christy Clark makes this proposal to our Federal Government knowing full well that it will be ignored because it doesn’t fit within Canada’s well planned broad strategy to navigate productively through the trade litigation and negotiations with the US (and oblivious to the fact that her false bravado works at cross purposes with our Federal Government plans to pick opportune times to strongly assert Canada’s case on all fronts in the US-Mexico-Canada negotiations).

This is cheap politics intended to make the misleading and essentially false impression with the BC voting public that Ms. Clark is a strong and effective player in the high-stakes international trade negotiations about to begin beginning.

Never heard if the Second World War?

Don't worry Dr. Couillard, anglophones will continue to vote Liberal until the cows comes home (there are no other legitimate federalist options -- and I don't buy that the CAQ is one).....


OK Richard let me get this straight: Trump (Republican) is under investigation by Mueller (Republican) who was appointed by Rosenstein (Republican) to investigate the firing of Comey (Republican) with oversight from the Justice Department headed by Sessions (Republican) and the US Congress (entirely controlled by Republicans), an investigation in which charges may conceivably be brought in US District Court (majority of justices appointed by Republicans)...yet this is all a liberal plot? You guys just never get tired of playing the victim. When does the personal responsibility you preach to others kick in?


Tony, so good to finally hear from my silent stalker.
First off, Bill Clinton was terrible.
Bill Clinton may have been a disgusting man lacking morals, but he actually was draft eligible, unlike your draft dodging coward Trump.

Bill Clinton received deferrments, just like Trump. But in the Fall of 1969, Bill Clinton entered the draft and was eligible. His number was never called.

Get it? No?

Why are trying to say it is okay for Trump to be a draft dodging coward by pointing at the very disgusting Bill Clinton?
That is li,e saying since Hillary is a murderer (she is) then it would be omay for Tru p to be a draft dodging cowardly rapist.

Is that what you are doing?
Okay, now why do you support a draft dodging coward like Trump?

Maybe it would be better if you go back to being a silent stalker?
Unless you want to explain why you support a draft dodging coward like Trump.


Alberta has so many service fees before you even get your product, such as heating that it's an absolute joke. You have over 6 service/transit fees on a bill even if you never use your heat.

Add further, Alberta tends to have cyclical EI or welfare because companies don't hire Canadians anymore (they hire foreign temps) or just don't hire long-term full year positions.


Guaranteed, no matter how many billions Liberals spend, there won't be much to show for it. Does anybody honestly expect a fighter jet that will make us proud?, or an awe inspiring navy fleet? Of course not. The next decade will be just more of the same Keystone Cops style national defence, but $30 - $100 billion poorer..


There are many ways. When a person looks lost or confused help them with their problem. Even helping them across a busy street. Taking someone to a hospital who is experirncing an ashma attack.....


The article stated ‘the stakes are high’

They certainly are if a political party the Star supports unquestionably is out of power after the next election - which ultimately is the Star’s only real concern


Why? This is their business, whether it is unethical or not. Anyone can set up a "misinformation business" as long as someone would hire them. Sign of the times.


Is this a guess or a fact?


....No they wouldn't, because they'd immediately bashed by Leftits for being misogynistic-- you really don't know how this works, do you. Do you normally spend your "retirement" years looking at sordid websites?


And the next year we will get to vote to throw Walker out of office, if he is arrogant enough to try and run again.  We wouldn't be in this situation if he spent time being a governor and changing the paradigm and cost structure of state government.  Instead he dedicates all of his time to playing with his gas line fantasy and $550,000 salary cronies.


Go ahead and speculate based on wind and shadows. You are very angry, try decaf.
Who is pulling a “bs session” on you and why are you so mad?


Gee, Mr. Lieb, I seem to recall a group called...I think was the Tea Party. I don't remember them being quiet and dignified. And in any event, shouldn't you be addressing your complaints about lack of decorum to the loud mouthed nut case in the White House for whom you voted?


Freedom of choice isn't as black and white as you seem to think. Rarely do women engage in prostitution voluntarily.

I'd be willing to bet that in nearly every case of prostitution today, both in this country and throughout the world, there's a tragic backstory -- child abuse, physical and/or emotional coercion, drug addiction, poverty, kidnapping...

Besides, compassion isn't just for the blameless. It's for anybody who'll accept it.


They are moving soon, and Melania couldn't be more thrilled!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Of course, she still doesn't want him to hold her hand, much less touch her anywhere else.


so with this new system how do you "dislike" or "disagree" with a comment? flag it?


So you think that if you do not serve in the military, you cannot be a Great American? Interesting. By the way, there was no draft at that time, it was strictly volunteer.


Guess she's got that Shania Twain song playing and the 'Repeat' button broken off her CD player. A great way to clear the mind for writing this Pulitzer stuff.


I would venture to guess that Mr. Giacomo would be more upset about 10 feral cats being culled than 10 monk seals dying from toxo.  I'm a cat lover, own domestic cats (if there is such a thing as humans "owning" cats), and have fed and watered feral cats but no longer do so.  Ya gotta ask yourself - how does human and animal society and the environment benefit from having hundreds of thousands of feral cats despoiling the fragile Island ecosytem?  Answer:  They don't.

Solution:  Place no limitations on properly cared-for domestic cats, and cull 100% of the ferals that can't be adopted out.


20 years ago I ate dinner and still do. More flat tires. They did nothing to solve the problem then and 20 years later SAME PROBLEM EXSIST.


Only intolerant haters believe in free speech.


I hope SO!!!!


No wonder Americans have no respect for public education leadership. What a complete asinine policy that wastes the time and efforts of all involved. Contact the police? To alienate, humiliate, and publicly shame children is in the "best interests of the children"??? The superintendent Christy Perry and the rest of the "leadership" team reflect their innate levels of sexual sadism.


40-20:  I don't presume to be anyone's "savior".  I do support friends and others who are attacked by individuals like you.  I certainly don't apologize for doing so.

I've never understood, and still don't understand the "reward" people get from being nasty and mean-spirited.  Perhaps you can provide me with some insight on this issue.  I don't know of anyone on this site more qualified.  thanks, Gary


You seem to be admitting that the "cheating" over Bernie to get elected was what caused Trump to win.  That would mean Trump cheated to get elected since this came out in a hack (allegedly by Russian hackers in collusion with the Trump campaign).  Interesting times we live in - and hopefully we never have to relive anything close to this in our political future in this country.  (Not sure if you are a Trump supporter/voter or a Bernie lover).


Republcians never try to "limit voter turnout."  Most citizens should want the same thing - that people who have "skin in the game" elect their elected officials.  People who are not citizens should not get to do that here until they achieve "citizenship or skin in the game."


Sanders & Wife, always on the wrong side of logic, the wrong side of history.


It's my understanding that none of these cases involved rendition. I believe you're confusing these cases with the Arar matter.


...& yet, you had to read the article & comment


It is management problem all right, all the way from the top to the bottom. Can not manage, but are telling others how to do  it.


"Grace and courage"?  Wow.  You must be a saint--perhaps the patron saint of self-aggrandizement.


Okay GIP. Could you explain what it is about "the spirit of free speech" that gives "you" the right to come to my house and shout at me? Or demand that I use my property in a way that you agree with, rather than a way that makes me money?

Maybe the problem is that people don't understand (or don't care) vs. a nebulous "spirit" of something. Where does that spirit start and end exactly?


It is the total 'reactions' that matter to GM - it's all about the 'clicks'.


Trump can't be picky.


Looks to be the amount needed to buy the Wells Fargo building in Spenard for the much needed LIO...


Par for the course from Southey, cherry-picking comments out of context to support a subjective bias of the radical activist fringe. The Senator raised some important points that seem to get omitted in any discussion of residential schools because it conflicts with "progressive" narratives (ie: it's 2017 so the Senator should check her privilege and be quiet) - she made it clear from the beginning that her remarks are meant in no way to minimize the terrible abuse inflicted on helpless children but Southey doesn't mention that because (it's 2017).
On a side note, where is the Globe's commentary on Turkey's regression into a religious dictatorship under Sultan Erdogan?


ACH:  Gridlock in Washington, unfulfilled promises, a feeling of being ignored, unfair tax system, faulty healthcare plan, "insiders", pay for play, etc. etc.  Clinton promised more of the same, I.e. Maintaining the status quo.  The people said you are not listening and we want change, no more status quo.  Will electing one person make that change - no, but it is a start.  So are people going to want to keep hating and being divisive and further widen the gap between people or do we want to set animosities and hate aside and work together to heal the pain?  The answer is up to the people.


Australian.


I didn't tweet that, your President did. Not a nice try...


The Dems have Access Hollywood and grope victims. The Repubs have WikiLeaks and the FBI has found a missing device or new source..  Lets just call things even.


I like and have rate resets and perpetual shares as a component of my overall portfolio. They are considered fixed income but do not be fooled. These are an equity investment and needed to treated as such.  Just echoing other poster's comments.


Why can't the public vote on these expenditures? None in Bryan's list were crisis decisions that couldn't wait for the next general election to decide? It would eliminate the suspicion that the commissioners were catering to special interests or cutting deals. Why can't we have democracy? Is the public really stupid enough to buy any of the above scams?


Seems like Chin's definition of close family is anyone he considers his 'ohana'.  So when anything says things like 'family member' or 'family only', that could be anyone in his ohana even if there are guidelines.


Me neither.  Another thing I'm not going to do is think all muslims are like that - no more than I'm going to think all Americans are like Stephen Paddock or all Canadians like Jim Keegstra.


@ Pocho
The Snowflake/Cupcakes just don't get it!! lol


A good question.

I don't have a problem with people who actually use their own time and resources to do good. That's called charity.

I do have a problem with clean finger nailed social justice warriors who shout and twist arms and shame and shake down elected officials and social-crats to do what they want just to allay their own white guilt.

There's a difference.

The Church implores us to "do good and avoid evil".


scary


The Republicans have been the main drivers of trickle down economics. They have been cutting taxes for wealthy people since Reagan. The party of FDR came pretty close to getting its spokesman nominated for the presidency, but now that the Republican Supreme Court justices opened up our elections to unlimited funding, it's going to be harder to do that in the future. I have no faith in either party, but the GOPis are totally out of control.


Love the show.  A wholesome lifestyle and family.  A welcome break from the negative drama of "Housewives", etc.  Thank you Discovery for offering a better option that is also entertaining.  And love the Kilchers, good for them!


Got some names for you:

Valerie Palme Wilson
Scooter Libby
George Bush

Now connect them and watch it end in a Presidential pardon.


agree.  This failed state bureaucracy is a major scandal.  It represents the loss of millions of dollars of tax money and reminds many of Waihee's corruptions while he was rebuilding the airport years ago.  The entire sewer needs to be cleaned and put under an expert, independent agency.  State officials are not able to handle anything and are grossly overpaid.


I can't stand that term they use... "Client" those people are enablers and sustain and support the majority of them. It's a ruse and most people fall for it.


Check these web sites and the slide show out, $50,000 is a give away:

I wonder just how hard the county tried to sell this?  Maybe listing it with a private realtor would produce better results?  I could easily see somebody buying this for $50,000.00 and turning around and selling it for much more.  I suspect, scrapping and selling the equipment/furnishings would generate more than $50,000.00.  Until due diligence is done and more is known, county tax payers need to pay close attention to this.  The RG is probably right about the public retaining the installation until a fair price is determined and the property sold.


(cont)  Schools have huge responsibilities today.....far more than when you and I were students.  There are more single-parent families with increased stress on that single-parent; there are more parents involved in drug/alcohol abuse; there are more kids who are homeless; there are more kids who, themselves, are drug/alcohol involved;  then, of course, we taxpayers have decided teachers are overpaid, class sizes too small, and we need to "cut some corners"..no more music, no more vocational classes; no more PE; etc... we've eliminated many of the very programs which helped marginal students "stay" in school and graduate.

  .......I apologize for ranting and rambling....but, as I look at today's schools, I get really depressed..  C'est la vie.....Gary Crum


We need a special prosecutor to investigate Obama's attempts to undermine the Trump administration.


Ad Hom is all you have this morning?


I agree with the author. The firing of the engineer has certainly put a chill on how I see Google. Claiming you are open and diverse- then directly opposing that with your actions- just makes you hypocritical. I am female and I left a lucrative career for a lower paying one to be with my children. That was my choice, and I certainly don't criticize anyone who makes a different one, but there was truth in the memo. Maybe not the whole truth or everyone's truth, but it was true enough that a debate about it woud have been more beneficial to the company than just firing the guy. Today Google looks like a left wing fascist corporation- what a shame.


how are they greatly affecting you, or the public? any solutions?


That Trump win last night was YUUUUUGE!  A yuuuuge disappointment to some and a yuuuuge relief to others, not because Trump won, but because Clinton lost.  My takeaways: 1.  Obama will no longer be our President come January 20th.  2. Hillary Clinton's political ambitions are forever crushed, and 3. The Lincoln desk will remain in the Oval Office.


I watch sports for an escape, not to be reminded of the problems in the world. I'm considering not watching anymore. I'm tired of this protest nonsense.


Once again you can't resist calling others names, insulting them and their families. Were you born this way?


Chris nothing uncivil about it. some intolerant leftist who can't stand free debate had it deleted but the most vile vitriol against conservatives is allowed by. I will try to post again. Try to get a conservative viewpoint posted  on liberal run ipolitics site, They don't like anything that damages there narrative


Yes.   He is still a human being.  Someone who may have a family and love ones.  His wrong doing should not be judged.


Great letter Thomas !!


Self cleaning fountains to prevent the spread of hep c.


I read the article, thank you, and the article did not say anything about disappearing from a camp site, that the lost teenager allegedly has autism, or that it was raining.  People who live in glass houses should not throw rocks.


Ganot continues with a steady hand to build a program for sustained excellence. No panicking, no compromising on the type of players he wants in spite of the few dodos here (including the old geezer Ferd who has an ax to grind against him). Are his recruits top talent? Probably not, but certainly ones with potential and desire to succeed at the level UH competes at. There's basically only one option for UH to get into NCAA post season and that is to win the conference. That doesn't require top talent, just a right blend of role players and one or two key lead players. Ganot is building a solid foundation to be able to compete in our conference year in, year out with CLASS, something the previous regime knew nothing about.


What a beautiful letter from Kimberley O'Brien!  Makes you love those Irish.
Jim, hard to say whether America's indigenous people actually  prefer "Native American" or "Indian",   Most probably prefer  going by their tribal name, as Kalapuya, Kalawatset, Siuslaw, Molalla, Umpqua, or even their band name as Chafin or Chela Mela.
 In any case basic respect is that we call folks by the name they prefer and we don't use it in a disrespectful matter.  That's not PC,  just common decency..
Roseburg  HS, which has worked harmoniously with the local Cow Creek Indians to insure respectful behavior has kept the name Indians, while Marcola, whose "Indian"                                                                       name came from the local Mohawk -- an eastern term of no relevance locally-- chose to drop Indian.
Fortunately we no longer picture America's First People as ignorant savages from whom we bravely "Won the West" as we did back when I was young, though that image lingers on.


The tenant groups repeatedly warned the City Council that owned the building of impending risk of fire. They were ignored.

What else could Council do? There is no money. The same story in cities all across the US and Canada. Too much infrastructure, not enough money to maintain it. Buildings, roads, railways, bridges, all falling apart.

This kind of disaster is becoming the norm in coming years, a natural outcome of people  living  beyond their means.


Now report on the other side of this story, do some research and report some facts. Totally biased garbage!


As if Hillary Clinton owes anyone her acquiescence -- or should care about the irrelevant views of the online trolls and spiteful Trumpers or even weary Democrats who wish her to disappear. Just go away, they insist? Easy for them to say.
She might indeed have been the first female President of the USA. And she did win 3 million votes more than her crude foe, a fact that irks him and his fans still. If anyone has the right to protest Russian or FBI influence on Trump's behalf, it's her.
"Thanks, Comey..." said Donny's campaign staff in those last hours before voting day. Meanwhile, Mueller proceeds with his relentless investigation...


Well stated. God damn the poor. How dare they "invade"  my comfy world with their bloody poverty and needs.


Funding a road for King Cove when there is no actual access seems rather political to me.  Whose trying to buy votes from who?


If you believe in science, then i would suspect that you have a good handle on ratios, and statistics as well. You understand that 23% of the world population is Muslim, that's 1.6 billion people compared to 2.2 billion "Christians" of varying sects.  It just so happens that the percentage of the worlds population resides in extremely impoverished and violent regions which increases the likelihood of engaging in violent behavior.  The reality is, they could be Budhist and, given the same tumult they are constantly exposed to the results would be the same.

You might be tempted to say the regions are violent due to the population's religion, but the reality is they have been violent for thousands of years predating the present religions.

It is also socialy acceptable to track and report on violent acts brought on by Muslim individuals and place less emphasis on violence perpetuated by other groups, so there is an inherent bias when it comes to the perception of a violent demographic.


Bzzzt!

Mark Mackinnon story.


Jacob Zuma commented some months back that he would quite like to be a dictator. At the time we should perhaps have heeded this veiled statement of intent. We didn't because -- even for him -- this seemed impossible. South Africa may be in dire straits but is blessed with a fine Constitution and a still-functioning Concourt, right? Erm, wrong, apparently, given his unilateral manoeuvres of the past year or so.


Rude Comments, what are you 12yrs old. Type of Guy that can't debate one on one.  Where have i said anything Rude?  Its a Fact that DailyMaverick & other news papers censors comments.


Kudos to the lady for caring for the lost dog but 21st century due diligence dictates that she, or a vet, at some point in 3 years should have checked for a microchip.


Uh, vices don't speak. Neither can you spell.


So are you condoning the actions taken by DNC operatives because the GOP has done bad things too? How about condemning both groups?


What a remarkably absurd comment.


Anyone who has made it to a 100 meter final in the Olympics or world championships has used..  If you are russian, chinese,cuban and any other commie country, you've used. 79% of all gold medal winners have knowingly tried illegal supplements. They work that's why. No doping, no medalling. Simple.


The city doesn't immediately generate revenue by maintaining and plowing our roads.


Except he was an overly compliant milquetoast as Speaker of the HoC.


The Denver City Council and the Mayor's words of protecting the marginalized and creating inclusiveness within the city don't match with their actions of perpetual urban renewal, hyper-gentrification, police corruption, and economic development (or economic exploitation). Many of these people they are uprooting from the community have lived here for generations, yet the City Government has no interest in protecting their Rights as Citizens and making sure their lives are not distrupted. This brand of politics might actually be worse than Donald Trump people!


I don't personally believe UAA students don't care about their own teams. I, as well as many others, attended every hockey, volleyball, and gymnastics games/meets last season (because we enjoy those sports.) UAA is very much a commuter-based school. Many people have full time jobs, or children. I do not, so I attend these kinds of events. University sports are part of the college experience. Taking out these sports will send many students down to the states for the "college experience." College students spend thousands of dollars every year for the anchorage economy so there goes that money (if you want to talk about money.)
People needs to think more about the students rather than just the money.


If that's his plan to create jobs; terrorizing the public and trashing civil rights then it's going to be a costly and fruitless endeavor.


You think that's all we have left?  You can't fix stupid.


that's a big part of cutting weight for fighters


To quote Harry Truman, Senator Corker is just telling the truth and Trump thinks it's h*ll.


Recession is 'moderate'.

Welcome to the initial stage of the by-products of SB21.

Just you wait till stage 2 and stage 3 kick in.

 I tell you, you'll be looking back wistfully at open shelves full of party balloons then.


The best way to cut state spending is to get rid of state employees, after all state employees cost pay and benefits and they find ways to spend government money both directly and indirectly.  We should cut the number of state employees by 5% every year for ten years to return to the number of state employees we had about 15 years ago.  Somehow, they were able to provide state services 15 years ago.


The last time Alaskan's were sold a Rosy "Economic Report Summary", it was called SB 21!                  BUT, BUT, the supporters explain: There were VARIABLES outside of our CONTROL!
I do note for the record that the commercial boys in Bristol Bay wont leave a big hole in the ground,and an acid filled lake in perpetuity! Cheers-


Just build the energy east pipeline and you don't need to worry about what team Trump wants.


No job and third trip to Hawaii in nine months, est.($600+) each way?, isn't chicken feed. Still, would be better to get Immigration side of the situation; in this case maybe never.


Your company paid based on usage and required speed.  If companies like Comcast have their way, Netflix would pay more for the same exact bandwidth than another company with the same needs.  The difference is that the other company isn't competing with Comcast, and that is where the problem comes in.


I identified myself as a "layman" each time I made reference to Mr. Trump's sociopathy.  I invited (and once again, invite) you or anyone else to read the definition then study Mr. Trump's behaviors over his life and draw your own conclusion.  I make no apologies for expressing my view.  I feel it's an opinion based on very sound evidence.  Feel free to make the argument that Mr. Trump's behaviors don't fit the description of a sociopath....that would make interesting reading.

On the other hand, Icon presents an opinion which is held by more and more Americans as more and more information regarding the Trump campaign and administration is exposed.  As I noted, the Mueller investigation should clarify the questions regarding any criminal culpibility.  As I also noted, Icon's opinion may be "extreme", but it's by no means "crazy."  Feel free to re-read my post which, I think, focuses on not dismissing Icon's opinions as "crazy" and therefore of no value.  Gary Crum


Why stop there? Enlightened colleges could also house homeless and prisoners in their dorms. It would be a vital revenue source for less-endowed schools. Think of the equality THAT would create!


Obviously no, that's nothing to do with what he said.


And, finally, I`m no close-minded anti-vegetarian Trump-esque freak.

At one point in my younger years, I tried to be a lacto-ovo vegetarian for about 18 months.  It failed notwithstanding working really hard to incorporate a range of different types of vegetarian protein and working hard to get the right fats etc.   On the good side, I learned to prepare vegetables in a range of interesting and appetizing ways.   Increasing veggie variety is never a bad thing.

It was actually a naturopathic doctor who told me I needed to be back on meat protein pronto -- and, he was right.   I started feeling better the day after having a yummy lamb stew at a Middle Eastern restaurant, and never looked back.

There are some people whose genetic make-up allows them to function well on a vegetarian diet, but many do not.   Misguided food fortification is part of the problem, where synthetic `vitamins` are added to foods that mess up about half of the general population`s health.


This will help lower prices as no physician will want to be known as a
price gouger.

Orthopedic costs are way out of line since most orthopedics formed a consortium.

Information is always good, as are informed decisions.


The law and truth are often in conflict. You can see Edward Snowden as a case in point.


The idea that opponents of abortion do not support women's rights is a lie perpetrated by hardcore supporters of Abortion  intended to demonize anyone who doesn't share their view.  The reality is that this has nothing do with women's rights--some people still believe in the idea that some basic human rights should extend to the tiniest and most vulnerable of us.  It always perplexes me that those on the Left, the so-called defenders of human rights, go along with the idea that unborn children should not be considered persons, and even worse, feel the need to attack those who hold that view.


You are not an American if you boycott football. It's as apple pie as America can get except maybe baseball. Go ahead and root against the Seahawks as they stink anyway.
Go Dolpnins!!

It's just a flag. I'm a veteran and honor it often.They aren't burning it so who cares if how they protest as long as its done peacefully. I actually support their protest. Maybe I should just turn down the volume when the anthem is played and back up at kick-off.


Many years ago, I was naive and thought that everyone had the intelligence to be successful but the effort was variable.  Then I started tutoring kids and realized that some people are just dumb, and even with hard work, are limited in their potential unless they find something that they can excel at and pays wells.  If the parents are dumb, the kids are likely to be dumb.  Being dumb means a lot of things, such as divorce, neglect, time not being spent with kids on school, lack of effort, limited success in school, etc.


The article reads as if it was written by a public relations firm hired by the "activist" lawyers to promote their cause.


You should read that article carefully. The writer argues, convincingly, that "Black Privilege" is  purely the invention of white conservatives, not a real phenomenon.

And, Bill, for well over a hundred years, there have been white folks who decry white supremacism, or "yell racism" as you put it.

White folks, including public education icon John Dewey, were among the founders of the NAACP in 1905. There are still many, many white folks in the NAACP and in civil rights movement generally.

I am not responsible for Angelo's comments.

Furthermore, I never said that I found Canadian content itself offensive.

And I never stated that Netflix US was the only purveyor of quality viewing. I am not subscribed to Netflix.

It seems that you have chosen to respond to me personally about everything that you don't agree with in other people's comments.


Yes.  It is a good thing that Hokulea cannot sail to Las Vegas.  The politicians would also go there to give them awards and proclamations.


So?


This is definitely insanity at work. Get ready for WW 3 and Mississippi of the north cause here they come. Unreal.


Lets see, wasn't it coal miners that were so fond of the so called president? To "help " them he took away stream protection, maybe now they can get rid of all those silly safety regulations that really don't help, then Medicaid  so they can't get treatment for black lung. Yup back to a third world country, America is going to be so great again.


Trudeau needs to stop this -- Protection of both Canadian Security & Canadian Sovereignty is what is important -- not the Millions$$$$ received from Chinese Billionaires   ... !

Pierre-Elliott Trudeau would not have approved of this type of destruction of Canada.

What about the wall Trudeau has built around Saskatchewan and Alberta


You're deluded thinking illegals here pay their fair share of taxes.  They don't pay a penny more than  they get get caught with.  They cheat, they lie, and they steal from citizens and the country as a whole.  They're ILLEGAL.  They don't want to get in line. They don't want to pay their due. They don't want to pay taxes.  And they don't want to obey the laws of our country. And if they can get away with it, they will.  There is no morality in their lives;  just escaping from their horrific home country and stealing Americas hard earned wealth and power.  And where it's given, yes, we have plenty to share.  But, OUR poor, OUR unemployed, OUR citizens deserve it, not them. And yes we will be paying MILLIONS to Zika infected  illegal  anchor babies and their mothers. And millions of OUR poor will have to do without, or at least significantly less. I think people like YOU should be deported to Mexico until you quit undermining your duly elected POTUS, like some commie infiltrator.


I haven't seen anything like that.


Heil bavius!


I'll consider signing on to a movement to deplore "Islamophobia" when Islam declares that apostasy, homosexuality, and blasphemy are no longer punishable by death.

Back to the states and straight to his golf course.  He must be done MAGA.  That was quick. Would love to see how much his golf courses are being paid by the taxpayers every weekend.


Enforce vagrancy laws. Enforce trespassing laws. Arrest any individuals with outstanding warrants, who are violating parole, who are registered sex offenders, who are engaged in prostitution, who are in possession of stolen property, who are dealing in narcotics or are in possession of narcotics. Institutionalize those who have mental health issues.
Doing this will solve 90-95 percent of the problem with the problem with vagrants squatting on public property.
The City of Seattle has the resources to enforce current laws on the books and can do this TOMORROW. Doing so will take care of the vagrant problem - these people are NOT "homeless" - within a week.
Instead, the City will impose a $55 million a year levy on the city, money which will only go to personally enrich the grifters who pose as "homeless advocates".
And they wonder why people can't afford to live in Seattle and why any native Seattleite with half a brain has already moved.


Therefore, this is main reason for program not accepted by the some members in city council.
If Hawaii not welcome Chinese to make investment, developers based on Chinese background will consider if they need to tell Chinese not invest or travel in Hawaii. US President Trump even knows that US should keep good relationship with China. Currently, China is the largest country with high consumption in travel, abroad study, Chinese company's investment in US.Currently, Honolulu TOD Area has 4 projects, and all of them based on Chinese Background. The developer from California has 2 projects. The projects could create jobs in construction more than 2 years. And restaurant and hotel could create permanent job. (4/5)


" proof that Canada’s largest planned military purchase remains on course."

Fear not - the Liberals will find a way to screw it up and turn it into a multi-billion dollar fiasco.


How about focusing on fund raising instead of recruiting?


You're leaving us? Is that a promise?


Only a few countries such as Russia and the US really ever cracked the technology for making “unitary” Sarin that had any kind of useful shelf-life. The main chemical reaction that produces Sarin creates 1 molecule of hydrogen fluoride, a potent and dangerous acid, for every molecule of Sarin. This residual HF destroys nearly anything the Sarin is stored in, and quickly degrades the agent.  The US and the former USSR made a huge effort to find a way out of this problem.  They found different ways to refine the HF out of the Sarin using very expensive chemical engineering techniques.

Furthermore, The Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons inspections after Syria’s accession to the Chemical Weapons Convention in 2013 revealed a variety of fixed and mobile mixing apparatus for making binary nerve agents.. Syria either did not develop such techniques or decided it was far cheaper, safer, and easier to stockpile binary components for a “mix it as you need it” process.


As long as united PC & WR keeps it together there will be a huge success in less than 2 years. All that has to be done is to keep the ship steady & make sure it stays united (if it actually does unite).

Even without union chances for NDP look bleak - they are trailing right now at #3 in popular vote after WR and PC.


Very similar to my journey. I have found "Roman Catholic Women Priests" to be more 'Christian' than the 'official' Church.
The refusal to Ordain Women appears to make all other 'Dogma' questionable.


di-mondz, apparently desperate for approval, "Likes" his own comment!

You couldn't make this stuff up, folks.


Of course! Along with the simplistic understanding that whatever social investment undertaken by the state constitutes budgetary burden. I solely wanted to show you that the textbook neoliberal model does'nt hold anywhere in the world. However, in light of the nature of economic problems that confront us, I believe that the state should intervene more. With the understanding that our dilemma cannot be left at the mercy of the hidden hand of the market, but should be tackled consciously.


I want the contract for the job. I won't deliver on time and I will demand more $$$$ to finish the unfinishable project.


Ignoring the Media Stumping for Hillary, Trumps views are very populist. He isn't extreme. it is his rhetoric that is turning people off.  And of course the leftwing media twisting it into to something it isn't.

If Utah is the reddist state, then it isn't moderate is it? a purple state would be more moderate.

Change from within? Those not towing the line are enemies? Be specific.

Its not a matter of being on the wrong side of history. Its a matter of using the Constitution as your guiding document and living with in its confines. You change the law, you don't interpret it differently to suit you as attitudes change. You don't discover rights that never existed. Woman's right to vote was brought by law, not a judge deciding it was a right denied. Slavery was changed by law and a war, not by a judge. The same thing could have happened with Gay Marriage. Calling it a right denied is a perversion of our constitution. It is judicial activism seeking an outcome.


Police are also victims of extremely oppressive circumstances.

Their sworn duty is to uphold and enforce laws up to the moment those laws are changed.  They are given neither the authority nor the tools to determine which laws are falling from fashion or gathering legislative support on the road to being passed or revoked.  Yet they are castigated for every instance of poor judgement despite serving in stressful and very challenging situations, and maintaining a level of peace and security in Toronto that is truly the pride of the western world.

Now, this insult.

If Pride and BLM have decided the police have no place in a parade that celebrates relief from oppression, I have no time for either Pride or BLM.

In sending the  NIMP message to the police, Pride richly deserves to see corporate and government sponsorships disappear.  I will be sending that message to the bank I deal with, and to the municipal, provincial and federal government politicians that represent me.


Because you are in the 'cafeteria' you try to make out that everyone is in it; it simply makes you feel better about yourself, especially when everyone who disagrees with you is "blathering" and "talking through his hat".
You keep bringing up Eichmann, you seem to have an inordinate fixation about the man. Obedience to the the Magisterium is not "following orders", it is entirely voluntary, an act of will so your Eichmann analogy is absolutely wrong.


Fade to a scene in the fable the Emperor's New Clothes. As the naked emperor walks by, one onlooker turns to another and says, with a thick layer of condescension, "My recommendation, Henry, [is] dig a little deeper. I think you'll understand what the emperor is trying to do. You may not agree or like it, but he's not really naked."


Guns made this situation...better?


Whats funny is can't answer any of my simple questions. Just more blah blah blah.


This has always been about money. To think it was about Native suffering is a bit of a stretch. Once the government dangled the carrot, every native who went to a residential school became a victim and was instrumental in creating a lottery win for lawyers.


This administration is running like a well-oiled machine. Everyone lubed-up and waiting for the 'winning' to begin.


Average life span in the 1930s was about 60. No doubt back then, it was thought that most people would have expired before retired and collecting.


The Year of Mercy is over, we are halfway through the Year of Wrath!


I was thinking the same thing; it could be more like a 70% correction. 30% just gets you back to a year or two ago.


1. okay, and if it wasn't them, then what? If it was the freshly elected councilors, see points 2 and 3
2. No you spoke about democracy, as if it's defined by the DA's constitution (why else in your view are party members obligated by democracy to vote according to party lines?)
3a. What constitutes new info? You're in an impossibly grey area. T A secret ballot is a secret ballot.
3b. Last I checked, secret ballot for electing a leader is the established principle. It's the principle of secret ballot for vote of new confimdence that has only just been established (though not yet employed), giving the ANC a better argument than the DA's.


This argument that the use of chemical weapons crosses some red line and demand a response - like ineffective  bombing of assets, leaving airstrip intact - is beyond ridiculous.  The inane, depraved, unconscionable, assumption is that it is better to kill babies with barrel bombs?  Is this REALLY an argument we are making or want to make?  At the root of it all is the KILLING OF INNOCENTS.  SMDH.


What the author and the liberal machine won't tell you is, immigration term, used as if it comes evenly from many places in the world, when in reality our young and inexperienced PM has personally leaned toward immigrants mostly from a certain troubled and violent part of the world, not tolerant with the western world  traditions and values, who mostly do not wish to assimilate and be part of one Canada, as young Trudeau has confirmed by facilitating a 'motion' to specifically protect the religion of peace, soon to be law.


This has been a blast for years. Wish I still could. Body says nope, just a nice fire and a cup of  hot chocolate. Happy Holidays.


BAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!


Ahhhh... Action, not words my friends. I don't agree with what he did but he did do what he felt was in his conscience.

I pose the question to many out there condemning him. How many are you willing to sacrifice watching Monday Night Football? Purchasing NFL merchandise? Refusing to  frequent businesses that advertise during NFL games? Write letters to the school board? Boycott sporting events and supporters of the events? Start a grass roots movement based on your beliefs to let these people know that you do not approve by hitting them in the pocket book and in ballot box? Not many... As long as your cell phone, internet, social media is not screwed with, all of you will continue to be sheep or play the keyboard commando and complain but not act.

JFK said it best and it should be the mantra of these difficult times for America:

 "And so, my fellow Americans: Ask not what your country can do for you — ask what you can do for your country."


Dowsn't matter, which it is, or which it ain't!  The anti-Bergoglio crowd out there on da right wing will NEVER be satisfied, with what he says or with the silence he keeps!  Not even the "perfect"  set-up was perfect!


That's what I said. It's not just me.


Canadians have every right to denounce  President Trump's militaristic, dictatorial, odious policies.


Sounds logical; not sure how feasible. But hey, every new idea starts somewhere


The Nats' average of 6.13 innings per start out of their starters is the best in the majors right now; they and SF are the only teams averaging six innings per start (and what good has it done the Giants?). More than half the teams in baseball fall somewhere between 5.5 and 6.0 innings average per start, with the Rockies ranked 8th overall (5th in the NL) at 5.6 innings per start. So while it's obviously good to teach young pitchers to pitch more economically and get deeper into games, the Rockies are nowhere near the point where this has been a major issue for them, in fact they're better than most right now. Everybody struggles to get through six innings these days, which is why bullpens are such a huge component in today's game.

Another bullpen arm to replace Ottavino or Dunn would be a huge help, it would allow everybody below them in the bullpen pecking order to slide down a spot and would push somebody like Lyles or Oberg out of the 'pen entirely.


Nope.  The ultra-conservatives have divided the Catholic Church, especially Ray Burke and friends.  They have politicized the Sacraments and the Eucharist and attached the Church to an ugly hate movement.  My understanding is that Ray Burke is attached to Steve Bannon and actually heads an organization associated with the alt-right.


I needed protection one time (and last time) I was at Saturday market.  A Montana couple had assaulted me.  It was crowded so I left. I was riding close by looking for them.  I found them getting into the huge SUV.  I pulled my bicycle in front of the car and proceeded to dig in my purse to find a pen to write down their license.  The woman got out, grabbed my arms and held my arms/hands pulling towards her and her cute hubby started the car and started driving forward.  I was screaming/crying asking them to stop.  A prayer group not 2 ft behind us ...about 15 folks holding hands but they couldn't do anything I guess until they stopped praying.

So I tipped over by the car w/cripple hands still being yanked by her and then they let go.  Two cars pulled up of EPD.  One came over to me,  asking what happened while the bad couple behind me laughing and yucking up w/2 cops.  I turned when he said they could go and started screaming at him.  He laughed.

I still have nightmares ovr that.


This article is incoherent.  What kind of assault are we talking about? Sexual? Physical assault while a robbery is taking place?  Something else? Why the secrecy around his name? The motorcycle belonged to him or not? If the police are protecting his name, then why? That's a story. And how, in the name of all that's holy, can that many resources be used and the perpetrator isn't captured? That's a story too. Who. What? When? Where? How? Writers are supposed to ask questions. Do it RG.


Ige and every thinking citizen of this country better fully understand we've been suffering an endlessly ramped up Civil War with this Nation's right wing and subversive packs of lynch mob devils along with their spawn since they lost 150 yrs ago but could never get over it. they said the South will rise again, it's happening because too many are allowing it. there is no working with them, they've proved it for decades and dedicated themselves to divide and conquer the people long ago, now they plan to get revenge for all their nastiness being subdued to any degree. Ige's trip will just be taken as weakness, a classic attitude of bullies, and the only things bullies recognize or respect are devastating retaliatory responses each and every time they try something. we're watching serious time and effort being wasted by the Dems / everyone when they need to ferociously fight this bunch tooth and nail every step of the way while there's still a chance, no matter what it takes. THIS IS WAR!


Is Mr. Lundberg living in  his own dwelling,  or living with MOMMIE????????


On the contrary, they are made to escape with a heavy package that will ensure they won't have to work again in their lifetime. How would you feel if someone who stole your car gets a reward of another one from the police? It's ridiculous - their power and influence.


And that more testimony in private still leaves our President Trump our president! Like we all knew it would.  Come Monday, it will still be our President Trump. And come 2018, and in 2019 it will still be our President Trump.


If Trudeau is becoming a populist likened to mean old Mr Harper, then I suppose the author should support the NDP and see how that works out.   I would presume that her middle class neighbours will be none too pleased with the internet 'levy' when they depend on that service to search for a new job after the NDP taxed their former employer into the dust.


The loony St Louis Democrat Mayor Lyda Krewson allowed the protesters "space to break things", so after they were done throwing bricks at cops, about 1000 of them went over to the Mayor's house and broke her windows when she wouldn't come out to "talk"-

Factual information is self-validating.

The most glaring example of Black Privilege is that which is enjoyed by Barack Obama. He is at best an incompetent fool, with the most secretive administration ever...... but his Black Privilege status keeps him from being described this way by the PC media.

Black Privilege demands that Black rappers who sing the dirtiest, foulest words about women and killing police officers are celebrated as “artists" ..... even at White House parties hosted by the Obamas.

One of the major appeals of Barack Obama was his promise to unify people, that he had a record of working with people from the other side.  In a famous speech, he proclaimed that there are no blue states or red states, there is only the United States.  He also consciously implied that he could  reconcile the racial conflict, especially since he is half white and half black.  Lies.  America is way more divided now than when he was first elected.
