I want to know when my forgiveness on my home mortgage loan is coming?... IMHO this is BS. People all know what they are signing when entering into a loan.
Your home mortgage can be discharged through bankruptcy, and you can go on to establish credit again. This is not true of a student loan. You can walk away from your mortgage. It will cost you, but you can do it. That is the difference. I've seen many loans, mortgages that were in default be negotiated down. Again, one does not have that option with a student loan. I have no idea how smart you are, or are not, but there seems to be many things about loans you aren't aware of. I'm no where near expert on these things but I know what I have stated to be true. I've known people who when due to a crash they owed much more on a home than it was worth were able to just walk away. They lost the home, but they owed nothing. Trump brags all the time about renogiating the terms of a loan after the fact. Why hate on students?

I'm not sure what you are saying, so I'm asking. Are you saying you would rather spend money and American blood later than money and no American blood today? Would you rather wait for Putin to attack a Nato country leaving us no choice and possibly triggering WWIII? What sense does it make to wait till Putin is stronger? If I misread what you were saying, please accept my apology.

Yes you do make me look good but only in comparison to your weak ass comments that make you look like a FOOL and a LOSER. Thanks for doing the same thing this time.

No he doesn't make you look good and I don't really believe he is foolish enough to even try that impossible task.

If we (the U.S.) is sending all that ammunition to Ukraine, then that would mean even more people are being employed manufacturing the “goods”.
A great “plus” for Biden and the liberal democrat-socialists, right?

What we are sending Ukrain is older arms that we are replacing in our stockpile with more modern ones.

I'm waiting for the "Texas Christian Right" on this forum, (you know who you are) to tell us that if God wanted her to have an abortion he would have given her one. Also, how is it that Paxton is still running around free?

How is appealing to SCOTUS election interference. The appeals court is mostly irrelevant as no matter which way it rules it will be appealed to scotus. Now, why not tell us why it's OK for Paxton to try to sentence a woman to death for wanting to abort a fetus that cannot live and that carrying to term will cause her great damage if not death. I'll not insult you, but take it from me, you have earned it.

Israel made the mistake of giving up control of Gaza in 2005 or 2006. Don't look for that to happen again. They won't have missiles rain down on themselves or strategic attacks being made on their people anymore.
But you have no problem with Trump supporting Nazis with torches marching and chanting "Jews will not replace us". I cannot help but believe that your position has nothing to do with the support of Jews, and everything to do with the fulfillment of prophesy. I may be wrong. I hope I'm wrong. But I know what it looks like to me. From what I read I'd bet Netanyahu has more support from Christians than from Israelis.

I don't recall seeing any new slogans after this: 'I Did Not Have Sexual Relations With That Woman'.
Most sources I have checked define "sexual relations" as coitus, something he was never accused of. I did say most, I did not say all. There are always outliers. The very second I heard that, I said, out loud actually, he got a BJ. Be incensed if you wish, but there is no evidence it was a lie. I think, knowing he had Ken Starr up his butt, it was unbelievably foolish, it hardly seemed something one should me impeached for. Depending on their agreements he may very well have cheated on Hillary. He didn't cheat on you or I. Had he said "I did not have sex with that woman" I would have believed him at the time and later would have agreed he lied. I doubt I would have changed my opinion on the rest of it.

I find it very disconcerting that so many show anti-semitism either overtly or covertly and act as apologists for hamas by minimizing what has happened.
The UN has always been anti-semitic, and shows in the resolutions that they pass.
Israel does this, Israel does that...hamas...silence.

Do you consider Israelis who want the suffering and killing to stop to be anti-Semites? Certainly the definition isn't "one who disagrees with lbrande and /or Netanyahu. What ideology has ever been put down with bullets and bombs? Do you disagree that for every innocent civilian killed you create multiple terrorists?

So, they sold their souls for food. Was that an excuse for brutalizing and killing? There were those who resisted. Have you any idea of the brutality that the Japanese inflicted in Manchuria before bombing us? Or the evil inflicted in the Jewish Ghetto in Poland by the Nazis? The Japanese and German people bought fully and totally into the evil that their leaders were selling.
Hamas will not be destroyed by bullets and bombs. Not because they hold the moral high ground, they don't. Ideologies forced underground fester and grow. If you create 3 new Hamas for everyone that you kill, the math simply isn't on your side. Countries have tried to kill Christianity and have never succeeded, not because God intervened, but because ideologies, whether based on fact or not, cannot be killed that way.

Biden is a man of his time as are all of us. I believe he is greatly torn. If he does what is really right it will probably elect Trump. (this isn't a terrible thing because it would put Biden out of power, it is a terrible thing because it would put Trump in power.) I hope this gets figured out by people smarter than I am, but it probably won't. To say "Hamas must be eradicated" may sound like a no brainer, but it can't and won't be done. Although there is a great deal of overlap "Jews" and "The Israeli government" should not be confused as being the same. Long term peace in Israel will only come through talk, and through compromise. What Israel is now doing will not, and can not work. Better should not be the prisoner of perfect. If you believe Israel can kill their way out of this please explain how and why you believe this will work. Israel is in a position to insure the destruction of both Israel and the Palestinian people, but that will be a lose lose. We need to help Israel but never saying no isn't necessarily helping.
