Also this fails to understand that for the pro-life movement it is completely ok to have personally gotten an abortion (or even better just had a partner who did) so long as you oppose it now. You'd be surprised how many pro-life activists have close family who've they've helped get an abortion or had one themselves.

It's pretty similar to how evangelical churches LOVE redemption stories, like "I was a drug addict and at my lowest moment homeless on the street I was saved" or "I was an alcoholic that cheated on my wife until I found God" (or in my family's church, "I used to be a Jew but then I realized Jesus was the Savior"). You can admit to all sorts of things and it's fine as long as you asked God for forgiveness and got saved.

Also, Nissan calls their system ProPilot, which doesn't really seem any better than Autopilot. After the high profile public decapitation got out they did that, yes. It should have been there from the start. And ProPilot definitely isn't a common term among the public for "operates itself", so no it's a whole lot better.

Pro-Lifers take an anti-abortion stance so they have an excuse to punish poor women who have sex, not because they actually give a gently caress about fetuses or life. E: Trump suporters certainly won't care about Trump's position on it now or ever because he is a vehicle for their anger and racism, as long as he maintains that his other policy positions (or lack thereof) don't matter to them Axetrain fucked around with this message at 22:17 on Sep 5, 2016 |

It looks like we're at the stage where the media seems to be completely zeroing in on Hillary. Aside from the "taco truck" thing, I haven't heard poo poo about Trump. I mean, yeah they're still reporting on him, sure. But this past week, unlike the past several weeks, have not been dominated by coverage on him, and at best, has been split with coverage on Hillary. I never feared Trump suddenly winning over the hearts and minds of the rest of the country, but did fear that Hillary's biggest threat was going to be the press.

I’ll supply funds and she’ll take care of the kids. It’s not like I’m gonna be walking the kids down Central Park.”

Also, where were all those mass market ads for airliners again? I must have missed this market.

The problem is that we have to let any old idiot rear end in a top hat drive because in 99% of the country you literally can't lead a productive life unless you drive like an hour a day at least There's millions of people who believe cruise control will drive their car for them and are only alive because they're not smart enough to engage it
