What I don't get about that Garrison is why he's calling out McCain for wanting to go to war with Iran, cause that is totally something Trump's cabinet wants to do.

Garrison is not very bright. He still hasn't figured out Hillary being a war hungry psycho who would nuke Russia and Trump being a strong wise sagely peaceful man was a lie.

He'll flip on a dime as soon as he's told to, but he hasn't figured out for himself that Trump wants war.

quote:

It’s time for John McCain to retire. It’s long past due.

Forget what you read about McCain on Wikipedia and other state-sponsored sites. His history has been sanitized and covered up by the globalists.

Here we have a man whose powerful, 4-star admiral father made sure he got many undeserved breaks in life. He grew up as a smart assed, entitled brat. McCain finished 894th out of 899 at the Naval Academy. He said he enjoyed being off-duty more than flying. He drove a fast car, chased women and gambled. He fancied himself as a ‘maverick.'

He recklessly crashed several planes because he enjoyed being a daredevil. His flying record should have gotten him tossed out of the military, but he knew he was immune due to his powerful connections. He wet-started his jet engine as a jape and it caused the plane behind him to fire a missile. McCain quickly dropped his bombs and ran below decks—never bothering to help in the fire-fighting effort. His bombs exploded and almost sunk the Forrestal. 134 sailors were killed and a helicopter whisked McCain away because many in the crew wanted his scalp.

He sang like a bird while being a POW in Vietnam and disclosed highly classified information to his captors. To be sure, he did suffer broken bones and was bayonetted upon his capture, but when the North Vietnamese realized they had an Admiral’s son, he received special treatment. When he returned to America, he cruelly divorced his wife, who was hospitalized for a long while after a car accident. He then married a rich woman who could fund his political ambitions. Once in power, he then systematically voted against veterans and MIAs.

Trump was right to speak out against McCain, and now the senator harbors a grudge. The anti-vet, warmongering McCain needs to retire before he causes more grief.

—Ben Garrison

Wow, Bee Gee, you really showed that McCain fellow what for! he won't be showing HIS nose here again anytime soon!
*Trump's entire cabinet explodes due to incompetence in the background, demons emerge from the ground and begin eating the innocent*
Yep, with him gone we can finally be free to make America great again, boy howdy!

Wait wait wait...So the right-wing is suddenly against womanizing assholes who use daddy's power and money to get ahead in life? And we're ignoring which party wrote all of that legislation that is "against veterans and MIAs"?

Jesus christ, Zyklon Ben needs to change his name to Whiplash Ben.

I think the logic behind the idea of "Clinton will get us into wars, Trump won't" while ignoring all the everything Trump's doing is that Clinton would get us into wars because she's an aggressive warhawk (which would make the fault ours), whereas Trump would get us into wars because he's a belligerent idiot who'll posture and bellow and piss off the rest of the world until they all go "y'know what, gently caress those guys" (which would make the fault theirs somehow).

Because apparently a war doesn't count if it got started because of American bluster or something? I dunno, there's only so much of this seven dimensional pretzel I can try to wrap my head around at once.

You see according to the Bible there was no sin before the fall, and one of the products of a sinful world is disease, so look how crazy those Old-Earth Creationists are for thinking there was cancer before Adam and Eve ate the apple and were banished from Eden.
So for the sake of making an argument he's choosing to believe (or talk as if he believes) that THIS part of the fossil record is correct, when clearly he doesn't believe in it at all because that would invalidate his views.

Arguing against an Old-Earth Creationist by using the loving fossil record is only an attack on the religious aspect, not the scientific aspect. This is the sort of argument you'd see coming from a secular scientist VS an Old-Earth Creationist. If anything he's destroying his own beliefs more than theirs.

The belief of the organization he does the cartooning for is Answers in Genesis. They feel their faith is being undermined not only by science, but by Christians that do not take every word of the Bible literally. If something appears that goes against their worldview and there is no way they could explain it they twist it so it falls in line with their worldview.

The answer they give for why there are no dinosaurs currently and why there is a fossil layer in the first place is that they all were wiped out in Noah's flood and the fossils were seeded how they are in a one time act of God, which is why you don't see any modern animals in the same strata as the dinosaurs. It doesn't matter to them if nothing could provide proof for that because the Bible says there was no death before the fall so dinosaurs couldn't have died out before humans existed, and are you going to believe the word of God or the scientists that say otherwise.

Nah, he's attacking the fossil record too. All his biblical cites are about the Fall and how death came into the world through man. It's literally "believing in fossils = doubting the literal truth of the Bible = doubting the universal love of God = not being a Christian".

Branco is worse than Garrison. Garrison is a just took a deep long draught of the kool aid.

Branco's entire "About Me" section on his website is written in the third person. And since no authors or sources are credited...we can only wildly speculate who wrote it.

He chose this particular quote to blow up magazine-style in the middle of it:

Branco quoting himself posted:

“Branco is a surgeon and his pen is his scalpel, an instrument he wields with laser-like precision in cutting through the philosophical morass of liberal orthodoxy.”

Garrison supports Donald Trump.

But yeah, slightly jealous of American friends who are second-generation Finnish or whatever and have, in a worst-case scenario, an easy immigration chance.



FAKEDIT: huh, this is kind of interesting:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_of_return#Ireland posted:

Irish nationality law provides for Irish citizenship to be acquired on the basis of at least one Irish grandparent. Note that for the purposes of Irish nationality law a person born anywhere on the island of Ireland (including Northern Ireland which is part of the United Kingdom where British nationality law applies: thus, people born in Northern Ireland are entitled to both British and Irish citizenship), is considered "Irish." The entitlement to citizenship of all people born on Ireland and its islands was stipulated by the 1922 Constitution of the Irish Free State, and the 1937 Constitution of Ireland and reinforced by 1998 Belfast Agreement. A person born outside Ireland with entitlement to Irish citizenship through a grandparent born in Ireland may pass that right on to her or his own children. To do so, however, that person must register her or his birth in Ireland's Foreign Births Register prior to the children's births. Irish law also automatically grants citizenship at birth to any Individual born abroad to a parent born in Ireland, without the need to register with the DFA prior to the granting of citizen's rights like holding an Irish passport.

Separately from this right, the Irish minister responsible for immigration may dispense with conditions of naturalisation to grant citizenship to an applicant who "is of Irish descent or Irish associations", under section 15 of the Irish Nationality and Citizenship Act, 1986. With rare exceptions the applicant must be resident in the island of Ireland before applying for naturalisation.

Kinda curious as to the meaning of the last; like for real, if you speak a smattering of Gaelic, play hurley or Gaelic football in the US, and participate in the local Irish music scene, is that something worth considering? I could sort of wing that.
