Yup. Where DID it go? Sea level rose as an obvious response to melting glacial ice. Happened time and time before, and it’s happening pretty quickly right now...Anthropogenic causation or not....

Missed the point...I swear, you couldn't hit the broad side of a barn, with a shotgun, standing 5 feet away.

This is sad. Joe goes unscripted off teleprompter when taking questions.
At 1:50 mark.. "The reason I was able to stay home is that a black woman was stocking the grocery shelves."
There will be no debates..democrats will not allow him to go answer questions without a teleprompter.

Did you watch the pres last night? Very interesting. He's just as susceptible to mind wandering as anybody else.

No I missed it. Didn't know it was on.

Yep....ABC town hall. He offered plenty of ammo to his opponents, but I'll give him this, he's much better in that setting than he is at rallies or debates. Not that he'd take my advice, but I'd say the more things like that he can do, the better. Be a human, not an alt-right, conspiracy theory cheer leader.

Again, not having watched it, on the surface, I would say kudos to him for even doing it. George S. is a Clintonite first and foremost, and I would say it is like going into the lions den. There is no way, Joe or Kamala would EVER consider doing a townhall on FOX with Hannity or Laura Inghram as the "moderator" and have it filled with "undecided" voters. I would wager that there was no one in that audience that was "undecided"

You'd be wrong. You should check it out. He actually got quite a few friendly questions.

Meet Ashli Blain - a 19-year old - flying a CH-47D Chinook fire-fighting chopper for Billings Flying Service - keyword being fire-fighting. I mean there is flying, and there is fire-fighting flying - No one gets into fire-fighting for the fun or glamor of it - one needs passion, loads of commitment and understanding of the risks involved. Then there is flying and helicopter flying. She got type-rated on UH-60A Utility Hawks last year when she was 18, and probably got her flying license before that - and this year she is flying a Chinook no less. Looking at other 19-year olds and looking at her - I appreciate the maturity she has got at this age to pilot the mighty Chinook into a fire, and her parents for supporting her career. She can be a role-model to so many other folks in these times irrespective of age, and gender to follow their passion - Hats off!!

I’m pretty okay with a shotgun, but I’m often guilty of missing a point. I’m slow on the uptake, sometimes. What’d I miss?
Ice melts, sea level rises. Regardless of causation, it’s happening rapidly.

I'm no sciencest (sic) but, if you fill a container with water, mark the level, then melt it, it will not reach the level when frozen.

The ice melting into the ocean is also coming off of land masses like Greenland. They aren’t displacing ocean water until they melt.
Re: Presidential Election 2020
With the passing of RGB, if no replacement were chosen, how would the vacancy impact a court decision on the election?

You can count on Mitch McConnell to flip flop on his view on Garland (let the election decide) and confirm Trumps pick even if Trump is a lame duck.
Re: Presidential Election 2020
The election has gotten even more important.
Ya know, no matter where you fall on the political spectrum, I think it's sad...well, disgusting really...that such important matters as filling a SC seat is so political. I don't mean that both sides want to win the WH and Senate to get to appoint judges friendly to their political philosophies, that's understandable. No, I mean that such things as close Senate races are given as a reason not to move forward with expediting filling the seat. Senator Collins of Maine is in a close tough race, so pundits are already saying it would be dangerous to her re-election bid to force her to vote on a nominee prior to November 3rd. I hope Collins wins in Maine, but how is HER personal career considerations more important than the Senate meeting its Constitutional duty?
And of course, there is already concerns being expressed about leftist violence destroying more cities if Trump nominates a replacement and the Senate tries to move forward. How sick has it become that thugs on the streets are influencing the Constitutional processes and protocols! Send in the troops.
One thing is for sure, if the next nominee waits until the next POTUS is sworn in in January, then both bases will be motivated to turn out. Which of course means the Dems will be cheating like the dickens engaged in voter fraud. The dead will be bothered multiple times to complete ballots....
