    It's not a matter of "not true," it's more that you make several sketchy inferences of an awfully consistent and convenient stripe. For example, the pilgrims weren't necessarily seeking more church decentralization. Rather, they felt the CofE had strayed and, therefore, they had no option other than to break away.

    Trump Fixates on Canadian Softwood. You Shouldn't.

    So last night, House Republicans came up with a new Trumpcare plan, one that effectively lets states and insurance companies end such things as ban on no pre-existing conditions coverage, etc. Except for one group. House members and their staffers would still be covered by all Obamacare provisions. These folks really think they are bulletproof, that their constituents hate Democrats so much they will put up with any abuse of power by their representatives as long as they think the undeserving (people not like themselves) are getting screwed more. Sometimes this is true. Other times, like 2006, it isn't.

    That's pretty rich coming from a country where the majority did not get the president they voted for.

    U.S.-backed Ukraine government cuts off energy to Luhansk region. Russia steps in to help.

    Russia's aid will be viewed as "aggression", I'm sure.

    Russia to supply power to rebel-controlled eastern Ukraine

    Reason cited for the blackout: Unpaid bills.

    Reason not cited: Kiev has cut off pensions to the region and has made it impossible to transfer money from there.

    And, of course, Kiev owes Russia billions in unpaid bills. But Russia hasn't turned off the gas.

    Yet. :)

    "He ain't even been a city councilman, PAWWWWWWLLLLL!"

    Also, even if he was elected, as soon as things started to go bad Alabama voters would secretly meet with Bobby Petrino about taking over.

    Ivanka is setting up a foundation (or something) to be run from inside the White House? Seems ethical and completely above board. I await the howls of people who railed against The Clinton Foundation to be aimed at this.

    Is today the day conservatives will tell us they were just kidding about the deficit ruining the lives of future generations?
