How on earth do you high-five this post?

Yeah, they were a little bit. Sorry buddy. I guess I'm just frustrated with what seems so obvious to me being alien to others. I'm looking into moving to Canada. This country isn't meant for people like me.

I miss you and BDB so much. I hope we have a time when we can all get back together again. Have a great week.

Thanks NTL for backing me on the knee thing. I have no idea if S is the answer but change for the sake of change is never the answer. It's nice to talk about football again, take care buddy.

Well, every newspaper has ran stories that were wrong, and someone knew it. Every (large) media outlet, too. Almost every large religious institution has lied and had corruption to it. Almost every sector of the government, even in periods of prosperity. I think we would have to throw away pretty much everything. I am an institutionalist at heart. I fall in line with "A Republic, if you can keep it," type of guy. Organizations like the SPLC are part of the Republic. They are not without sin. But I will say that many organizations are tied up in using most of the money they get on just existing. Does that mean SPLC hasn't taken things a step too far? No.

I'm still a member of The Federalist Society. They knowingly invite and interact with federal and even SCOTUS judges, even they know it's a conflict of interest for the most obvious of reasons. I don't disavow The Federalist Society, nor the judges who interact with them.

I'm just a small individual, NTL. Do you know what it would mean for a guy like me to work at the SPLC? Just to get that outlet to help people? An organization that at least has it's scope and view of the law correct, who collects GOOD data and has its hand in actual reform. It doesn't mean I'm devoid of disappointment. I just think needing to do better doesn't mean you need to abolish something.

I will always treasure these conversations. You flatter me with steel sharpening steel. I feel more like cardboard, to be honest.

How do you throw out years of service? I also won't lie to you, I'm skeptical of the piece in my own right. I've heard similar accusations about groups that I have had personal dealings with, that I know. Maybe that's the real goal - not yours or mine but maybe we're so splintered because we tune out other sources we dislike? I can't even front that I take much from Fox News seriously. I guess in my defense it' s a known fact that they're absurdly misleading as borne out of independent studies on accuracy and truthfulness.

Oh NTL, maybe one day it will get better.

I was worried that I had irked you. I am really trying to not irk anyone, and while I wouldn't have cared a great deal -for you, always I would care you are my dear friend- I'm trying to better myself. A newer, softer King. I read the article. What I will say is this - they have a long and positive track record. I don't doubt that they've stumbled. But that end of the article shows that they're still doing what they're doing. I don't toss out a lot of good because of some bad. I'd also like to hear their response.

They should have credibility with you. They're a great legal organization that's factually strong. Sorry if I irked you though. I'll keep your preference in mind - I try not to cite to sources that kill discussions. Unfortunately it gets harder every day.

I don't know if it's actually possible for there to be a worse candidate than Trump at this point.

I don’t have much to say in response. I’m sorry if you felt I was attacking you, that wasn’t my intent but I could see how that came across. I’m disappointed with the right.
