    Or you can call both sides out.

    I am parodying the arguments you and thethe make for Trump when I talk about Obama. Pretty much everything I posted were facts. If the facts equal sucking Obama then maybe he was better than you want to admit.



    I have **** all over Trump, Hillary, Biden, McCain, GWB, GHWB, Bill Clinton, Jeff Sessions, Pete Sessions, Ronald Reagan, and even Nancey Reagan. Just to name a few. No one Is more bipartisan than me.

    I always laugh when conservatives say Obama was the most racist President ever. No President in modern times have we had a President who was namecalled and whose identity was assaulted more. Trump plays the victim, but he propagated most of the attacks on Obama years ago with the racist potstirring of the birtherism. And yet, Obama never stooped down to Trump's level of namecalling when the GOP and Tea Party kept promoting racist euphemisms like "the food stamps President" or attacking him for when he tried to have an honest discussion about race (2008 campaign) and police brutality (the Trayvon quote). Whether as President or Post-Presidency, Obama has never gotten into the mud and got mixed up into Trump's game.

    The right kept trying to create Obama into this monster caricature that didn't exist.

    Trump has rightly earned every criticism and namecalling, because a bully always gets it back what he dishes out. The funny part is, the right thinks Trump is a tough guy. As kids we were always told the loudest one in the room is the most insecure and has the most to hide. Trump is easily the biggest pussy we've ever had as a leader, but he tries to project strength and everyone except his supporters can see past his bull****.

    I've never seen Obama talk about himself the way Trump does, and the way Trumpets worship his narcissism is hilariously disturbing.

    Obama tried so hard to appease Boehner and Republicans, and was never met half way but instead the cowards in the Tea Party kept trying to prevent Boehner for compromising on anything. Trump tries to play nice, then he'll go through the same cycle over and over.

    Step 1: Say we can get a good deal with the Democrats.
    Step 2: Dems ok Don how about this.
    Step 3: We're looking at that.
    Step 4: Trump gets an earful from the NRA or lobbying group, then says "we're not doing that".
    Step 5: Tweet obscenities and insults about how the Dems don't wanna cooperate.
    Forever Fredi

    TBF there’s probably an hour for Ilhan Omar and another for Venezuela, so it’s probably not more than 20.

    wasn't sure if here or the politics thread was the right spot

    so went with both

    Ohio May Let Religious Students Give Scientifically Wrong Answers

    The Ohio State House of Representatives has passed legislation critics say will allow public school students to get full marks on science tests if their answers reflect “sincerely held religious beliefs”, even if they're factually wrong. Arguably if the bill passes the Senate and is signed by the governor, all students will need to do is find a religion that endorses every error, and claim it is their own. Granted, this may be more work than actually studying for the exam, but it could also be more fun.

    Ohio House Bill 164, known as the Ohio Student Religious Liberties Act, includes some apparently reasonable clauses, such as preventing schools from denying students access to facilities because of their religion. However, controversy has focused on a section that reads: “Assignment grades and scores shall be calculated using ordinary academic standards of substance and relevance, including any legitimate pedagogical concerns, and shall not penalize or reward a student based on the religious content of their work.”

    According to local television station WKRC, students can't be marked down for an answer that is in line with their religious beliefs, even if it contradicts the best science.

    The bill’s sponsor, Representative Timothy Ginter, has disputed this, claiming “ordinary academic standards” means answering in line with the syllabus. However, at least until the law is tested in court, some teachers may be reluctant to penalize unscientific answers in the face of a potential lawsuit arguing they have breached the student's religious liberty.

    Every Republican and two Democrats voted for it, while 31 Democrats opposed. The Ohio Senate has an even more overwhelming Republican majority than the House, and the governor is also Republican, so its chances of passage are high.

    Gary Daniels of the American Civil Liberties Union expressed the most widespread fear about the law, questioning whether a teacher could mark a student wrong for saying the world is only 10,000 years old. “Under HB 164, the answer is ‘no,’ as this legislation clearly states the instructor 'shall not penalize or reward a student based on the religious content of a student’s work,” he told Cleveland.com.

    Irrespective of the intent, the danger is the chilling effect the law could have on those unsure of how to interpret it. A teacher faced with a paper claiming the Sun goes around the Earth might have trouble marking it, not knowing if the student belonged to a cult that holds this view, or simply hadn't been paying attention in class.

    Ginter, who rather appropriately represents Salem, justified the law by describing the pressures students face from drug use, depression, and suicide. It appears to be his sincerely held belief this legislation will help, although it is less clear how.
