With regard to the whistleblower, I don't see how the Whistleblower Protection Act can trump the Sixth Amendment. Seems like failure to confront the President with his accuser is on its own sufficient grounds to acquit him.
Good lord, man. I hope this is a troll post.

The whistleblower isn't an accuser. They saw something and reported on it. Additionally, it's not a he-said-she-said situation. The contents of said whistleblow have been independently verified by many people, including Trump himself.

It's like if someone shot someone on fifth avenue, and one person dials the cops to report a shooting. The cops arrive, question 100 witnesses who say it happened, get the video tapes of 3 stores with closed circuit cameras pointing at the crime, and the murderer confesses, but the specific person who initially phoned in the crime went home after the call.

You don't need that original caller to come to court. You have 100 witnesses, video footage, and a confession.

You can't just say the house has failed without explaining how. Are you trolling?

Trump obstructed Congress, and congress submitted articles of impeachment including obstruction of Congress. What more do you want?

You have have the least curious mind to think the house is the one in the wrong here.

All presidents should be able to avoid impeachment by just not responding to it, and bogging the process down as much as possible?

That's so obviously unacceptable

I thought war 3's story was fine in a vacuum. Of course I thought all the stuffy characters were frustrating, and arthas went off the deep end a little too quickly.

My only grumblings were related to retcons of wc1 and wc2. Not that those games had some amazing story, but if I'm participating in a franchise I like consistency.

And the game deserves a rating of 0 if it literally doesn't work

If you set it up right excel does almost all the counting for you. But I get what you mean. I try to enter my expenses once a week, but sometimes I dont feel like doing it til the end of the month and that turns out to be time consuming.
yeah, it's the actual transfer of purchases from my credit card statement into excel that's a pain. i still keep track of macro total expenses

Moonroof posted...
Do you manage your expenses because otherwise youd risk falling behind? Or is it just habit at this point? I feel like I would keep track if I was on the verge of falling behind.
i also don't like to worry about money in the moment. i like looking backwards and seeing mistakes, then coming up with rules/heuristics that are easy to adhere to

regardless of whether you're ahead or behind, waste is waste. it can also be a wakeup call to some boiling frog scenarios. at one point, i was ordering seamless once a month, then it became once a week, then it became two, three+ times a week and actually seeing the food expense go up month-by-month was motivational to stop being so lazy.

seeing exactly how much i was spending on alcohol helped motivate me to drink less. seeing that i was actually spending less when living farther away and taking an expensive train four times a week made me feel better about a situation. knowledge is power, blah blah blah

I think the problem is that sometimes people want to move on from introductory arguments and move on to something more substantial.

Sure, everyone needs a fair opportunity to discuss whether Breitbart is right or wrong.

Most people paying attention had that discussion 5 years ago- there's no obligation for people to keep inviting them on television

But by all means, you're free to keep having round tables with ben Shapiro

Just don't think that makes said discussion more enlightened somehow

Also, I'd love to see more diverse opinions allowed on the subject of climate change on "the right".
