    Is racing to the bottom the new ‘Trickle Down’ theory?

    Some states seem to be trying to close those laboratories of liberty.

    There are lots of mad anti-scientists now running those “laboratories.” Many act as alchemists seeking to turn gold into lead, using a “seditionists stone.” Their assistant Igors are Mad MAGA Hatters.

    Stantis, you cannot be more specific than that?

    And voter and vote suppression laws qualify as “cuckoo”?

    Along with putting a bounty on women who have an abortion?

    ===

    Your hypocrisy is just disgusting!

    ===

    Maybe you can do another one about how death threats to election officials and poll workers are “annoying emails and phone messages”.

    Like I said, disgusting. Please add in all the expletives that should be included.

    Not bad, Stantis. You’re gradually coming around to more rational perceptions and thought with consistency..

    You got the message across without focusing on a specific issue or a few qualifying issues. Now you have to convey how they are working against the common good and defeating their self-interests…as well as murdering many people in many ways..

    Was it Jon Stewart that said state legislatures have become the meth labs of democracy?

    We should expect better after 234 or so years.

    The “lab” has become the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC). Create a pro business/limit government bill. Pass it on to the willing GOP legislatures. Pass it. GOP governor signs it. Repeat. “Liberty” doesn’t seem to be their aim.

    The framers of the Constitution united 13 separate colonies that were actually independent of each other. It really doesn’t make a lot of sense for the ones that were added later. And sometimes it’s arbitrary: Why are the Dakotas two states when it was one territory? Why are Kansas and Nebraska two states when it was one territory?

    Jon Stewart talking about Arizona:

    The “birther bill,” legislation that allows gun owners to carry a concealed weapons without a permit, and SB 1070 — the controversial immigration bill signed by Governor Jan Brewer last week — are the bills in question. And the combination of the three in the same week led Jon Stewart, host of The Daily Show, to call Arizona “the meth lab of democracy.”

    Carmen wants republicans to make laws about her body.

    She wants the govt to be intrusive into her sex life.

    Are there ANY laws regarding men’s bodies?

    I feel sorry for the people whose governors don’t know the difference between a “social experiment” and a fixation unchangeable by terrible results. Alabama had more people die than born last year. This is becoming a tragedy of Darwinian proportions.

    No Carmine they tried that with the confederation. Weak national govt, strong state govts. They ended that in 1789 when we became a Federal Republic. The CSA tried to during war and it helped to sink them as a country. Some states stayed out of the Civil War I kept their troops home some needed their soldiers to stop parts of them succeeding from them to rejoin the Union. They grew to hate the very idea of “state’s rights”.
