When Conservatives opposed a carny huckster, they were bigots merely because the target had brown skin. The race card is played based on the target, not the opposition.

Middle ages England would be nice. So would "Dark Ages" Italy.

The only reason I like Carson is because opposing him proves that liberals like you are bigots.

Agreed on all of that. It's incredibly hard to defend a nation with porous borders, as Pope Francis just found out trying to protect the Vatican from child pornography. And yes, we need an overhaul of the welfare state AND modernization of the immigration system. In this day of Total Information Awareness, 10 years to get a background check for a green card is a scandal beyond comprehension.

Common core does not work for uncommon children. That alone should regulate it to the dust bin of history.

I want to see a return of the nun's loophole, but with three changes:
1. It should only be available on personal 1040s, not on corporate, and should not be available on the 1040EZ
2. The percentage should be lowered to equal to that individual's tax bracket, that is, if you voluntarily gave away equal to your withholding or greater on your W2, you should owe zero federal taxes. Likewise, if you have capital gains and you gave away more than 28% of the proceeds, you should owe zero federal taxes.
3. Charitable giving should reduce your tax burden dollar for dollar. You *should* be able to wipe out your federal taxes by writing a check to the Church. You should not have to spend 80% of your earnings to do it.

This is how I feel about everybody other than Carson, Rubio, and Santorum. And even those three, well, I've got my questions about.

I'll likely be voting Constitution again- despite the fact that they're infected by the Enlightenment as well.

Concerned citizen: So are you a Democrat or a Republican?
Me: Well, neither. I’m a Catholic.
Concerned citizen: Huh?
Me: Uh. I fundamentally disagree with the underlying principles of both parties. I’m Catholic.
Concerned citizen: Well I heard that new pope is a communist. Are you a liberal?
Me: NO! I’m a Catholic.
Concerned Citizen: But didn’t the last pope hate gays? Are you some kinda conservative?
Me: Buuuuuuh. Catholic political thought predates these stupid parties by well over a thousand years! Criticizing capitalism does not make you a communist and rejecting communism does not mean you embrace industrial capitalism. Your spectrum is broken because it’s based on faulty Enlightenment thinking. Both parties have disjointed and contradictory platforms because modernity has failed you! Catholicism offers a comprehensive and COHERENT alternative that doesn’t fit on the ridiculous American political chart.

And profoundly agree with it.

I'm at a point in my life when I'm a Cardinal Reinhard Marxist. That is, distributism. The solution to both capitalist and socialist materialism, is Christian solidarity and subsidiarity with our closest neighbors. Let the smallest competent unit of organization do the work- don't let Supreme or the State do for you what your council should be doing for itself; don't let the federal government be the only way you take care of the poor.

Or as Pope Francis said more recently- let our charity be concrete- personal, not anonymous. Government is an anonymizer. So is big business. So are large charitable organizations in a way. The Knights can end up with this problem if we let Supreme do our charity work for us. We must let personal charity be the way our personal virtue compass needle points.

Also, don't write her off only at age 30. Plenty of ASD Level 3 people migrate to Level 1 in their 40s. Kanner Autism Patient Zero, at age 64, holds down a job in his family's bank, drives a car, and travels once a month. At 30 he was doing none of that.

MRI or MMR?

We'd still need surgery for injury.

Which reminds me- is a firearm truly the best way to create a projectile weapon on a 3D printer?

It seems to me that there should be a way to exceed a firearm's muzzle velocity, with a properly designed kinetic spring of some sort, thus building a weapon that requires neither metal nor gunpowder.

That doesn't look like a citation to me.

Seems to me a raspberi pi, four stepper motors, and a couple of good accelerometers could easily compensate for that.

Either that, or just make your rocket bottom heavy.

What's wrong with using a balloon, to lift your rocket until the balloon explodes, THEN kick in the engines?

CIA agents wearing black suits? What do you THINK their uniform is?
