Even if it was who's going to sue on behalf of actual Nazis. Maybe if the ACLU's feeling particularly trollish.

We're talking about Octogenarians who can't reasonably defend themselves anymore. 30 years ago? yeah, sure. But at this point, just what do you propose they do? "HA HA! Die Nazi!" Doesn't feel as righteous when the bastards can barely move on their own power.

I'd prefer a card along with their check. "We're paying for you to live, because we're better than you were."

Unironically this.

They paid in, they shouldn't be stripped of it because of something they did before that, even if that thing was pretty horrible. It's a bad precedent.

These guys may have realized the error of their ways and made right by living good, productive lives helping people for all we know. And there are shittons of would be nazis born and raised in the US who won't have their benefits stripped.

Plus they were maybe 20-25 years old during the war, tops. And in the lowest ranks, just dumb youth caught up in all the bullshit of the time, maybe.

Why not do it again then?

The American electorate is notoriously forgetful, but repeating the same thing over and over is the sort of thing that can finally create an impression.

Take the last 20-30 years of "Democrats raise taxes!" It's not even true, but it's been repeated so often it's created a rut in peoples' minds that it's impossible to sway.

If they can't be convicted of any other crime though, it sets a bad precedent to create a law punishing them for retroactive crimes. Even members of the most evil organization ever deserve due process.

Cool. That's super cool. What's weird is a lot of people believe it and I work with a few people who are disappointed their racist rear end fever dreams never came to fruition.

Anyway, been reading about Obama funding body cameras. How's the thread feel on it? Here's a link and a snippet:

From NBCNews.com...(weird, why does it add ellipses?)

Obama Requests $263 Million for Police Body Cameras, Training
http://www.nbcnews.com/politics/first-read/obama-requests-263-million-police-body-cameras-training-n259161

quote:

"This is not a problem just of Ferguson, Missouri. This is a national problem," Obama said.

The administration also said Monday that it will not make major changes to a program that transfers military equipment to state and local law enforcement agencies, but will instead focus on better oversight, transparency and training to ensure that the equipment is used properly. The president did say he would work to ensure the United States is not building a "militarized culture" in its police forces.

Obama will also announce the creation of a new task force - led by [b]Philadelphia Police Commissioner Charles H. Ramsey and former Office of Justice Programs AG Laurie Robinson[\b] - to prepare recommendations for "21st century policing."

I am gonna look into the bolder above - seems like a pretty big deal. Also, look into buying stocks in TASR if this goes through I guess, according to Google.

:lol: I didn't even notice that Edwin Edwards did well in the general election this year. He's in a debate tonight and looks like he'll take over Bill Cassidy's seat in Congress.

In case you don't know, Edwards is the now-87-year-old hilariously corrupt former four (non-consecutive) term Governor of Louisiana who was last elected in 1992 when he beat David Duke. He spent 2002-2010 in federal prison for racketeering, extortion, money laundering, mail fraud and wire fraud. He is currently married to his third wife, age 36. She gave birth to his son (and fifth child) last year.

As much as I wanted Edwards to be my Rep, I was under the impression he's straight hosed in the runoff? Republican candidates got like twice the votes in the jungle as he did.


Fun fact Edwin only ran for Congress because he's barred from running for Governor by statute as a convicted Felon. LA felt that law to be necessary

Additionally he has the best politics ice burn ever

Said referring to David Duke

"The only thing my opponent and I have in common is that we're both wizards beneath the sheets. "

Good news! The Florida Public Service Commission voted to drop energy efficiency goals by 90% and axe funding for solar credits because the power companies asked nicely and natural gas is totally more efficient than solar power in Florida. They also voted to let FPL charge us $750 million a year forever to invest in fracking in Oklahoma, even if they decide not to pursue it.
