So a Congressman thinks they have more authority over Catholicism than the Pope.

What, the Navy wouldn't be stupid enough to defer necessary maintenance to save money or are unable to schedule stuff far enough in advance because they don't know if congress will fund them would they? Of course they wouldn't!

The Maroon Hawk posted:I'm at my friend's house and his mom is watching FOX News, and Megyn Kelly is hosting a...focus group?...talking about the debate, and they just brought up that clip from the Trump rally. One of the women in the group said something along the lines of "we don't know he's not a Muslim" and Megyn straight-up shut her down and said "yes, we do. He's not." I want to believe that Megyn is just not going to nod with the bullshit anymore after being poo poo on so much by her fellow right-wingers but even if that's the case it's only a phase and it'll pass. As much as I want her to have learned from recent events I just doubt it'll happen. Rhesus Pieces posted:Kelly just proclaiming that he isn't a Muslim doesn't go far enough. loving Colin Powell settled this seven years ago. Shame that Powell was such a gently caress up for Bush because he could've made for a great voice of reason otherwise.

Is the Planned Parenthood defunding something symbolic like the ACA repeal votes or is this something that will actually be a thing?

According to a guy I know who just left it, the Navy took a 5% cut to personnel with the sequester, and most of the personnel funding for the Navy has been reduced in upcoming budgets, so very few of their ships are actually fully manned. Which adds more hilarity to the idea that more ships are needed.

http://aattp.org/obama-unleashes-twitter-rant-for-haters-in-denial-about-his-successes/ Where was this Obama years ago? I hope he recognizes the amount of people fed up with the GOP echo chamber and just spends this last year punching them in the dick over and over and over again, or does the smarter thing and just does it all at once in a big rush near the election Too bad he's still right of center on a lot of important stuff and silent on the rest, but oh well hail Satan

Oh very true, but in the end they'll need to pass a budget (or rather, a CR) and there's no way Obama will accept one with the PP attainder bill attached. So PP is safe(ish), but it's almost guaranteed to be used as a football for a while.

There have actually been a number of anti-popes over the last 50 years or so. Mostly coming out of the sedevacantist movement which basically argued that Vatican II was heresy, therefore all popes since Vatican II have been heretics, therefore there haven't been any true popes and the papacy is vacant. And then the next step beyond that is to go ahead and elect a new pope to fill their shoes. It's just that almost no one actually cares about them so they mostly get ignored outside of like a handful of people in Kansas or whatever

A Winner is Jew posted:I think you'll find that the slave labor of convicts depresses wages. In the regions of the prisons for simple unskilled low machinery work, yes. It is a help to companies in that regard. However for the rest it also removes a lot of potential competitors from the job market, and the union jobs as guards provide higher wages than one would otherwise find for that level of education and training. When I get home I should do a thread on TNC's big piece on it in September's The Atlantic

There are very serious capability shortfalls in the Navy today that are only just beginning to be addressed which means we won't see a good solution for a long time. Most of it has to do with how the Navy has perceived threats over the last 30 years and how the actual threat has rapidly changed since the mid-90's/early 2000's. That said, Fiorina's bullshit about sixth fleet is jaw-dropping stupid. Boon fucked around with this message at 00:36 on Sep 19, 2015 |

Marco Rubio is of the school that the Pope has no clue what he's talking about when it comes to Catholic doctrine.  Isn't that the Pope's primary reason for loving existing in the first place?! How can you ignore the head of your religion when he lays down doctoral interpretations?! It shows a major trump level arrogance.
