This is the most wonderful thing i have ev...WOW!!! <br />This is the most wonderful thing i have ever experience and i need to share this great testimony.<br />About how i get my ex back after a breakup.<br />I never believed it, because i never heard nor learn anything about it before. <br />My name is Cora L. Sanchez from UK<br />My boyfriend of a 2year just broke up with me and am 28 weeks pregnant. I have cried my self to sleep most of the nights and don’t seem to concentrate during lectures sometimes I stay awake almost all night thinking about him and start to cry all over again. Because of this I end up not having energy for my next day’s classes, my attendance has dropped and am always in uni and on time. Generally he is a very nice guy, he ended it because he said we were arguing a lot and not getting along. He is right we’ve been arguing during the pregnancy a lot. After the break up I kept ringing him and telling him I will change. I am in love with this guy and he is the best guy I have ever been with. I’m still hurt and in disbelief when he said he didn’t have any romantic feelings towards me anymore that hurt me faster than a lethal syringe. He texts me once and then mainly to check up on how am doing with the pregnancy, he is supportive with it but it’s not fair on me, him texting me as I just want to grieve the pain and not have any stress due to the pregnancy. i was really upset and i needed help, so i searched for help online and I came across a website that suggested that Dr Ahmed can help solve marital problems, restore broken relationships and so on. So I felt I should give him a try. I contacted him and he told me what to do and i did it then he did a spell for me. 28 hours later, my boyfriend came to me and apologized for the wrongs he did and promise never to do it again. Ever since then, everything has returned back to normal. I and my boyfriend are living together happily again.. All thanks to Dr Ahmed. as it is a place to resolve marriage/relationship issues, do you want to be sure if your spouse is being faithful to you or Do you want your Ex to come back to you Contact.: E-mail: Ahmedutimate@gmail.com or call/Whats-app: +2348160153829 save your crumbling home and change of grades its 100% safe.

I don't think she was talking about the racial bias that pervades our culture when she talked about racists among the deplorables. Pretending this survey captures what she meant is a bit disingenuous, in my opinion.<br /><br />Are there nearly as many racial extremists in the Democratic party as on the right? That strikes me as a very different question but a lot closer to what Clinton was talking about in her speech.<br /><br />Democrats tend to recognize the pollution of racial thinking and try to fight against it. I don't see that happening on the right. It makes a difference, in my opinion, whether our tribe is trying to decrease its percentage of racism or not.<br /><br />That's why Somerby's complaint, while technically accurate, is kind of stupid. It only works if you ignore a whole lot else about race.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-41311260141287221602017-03-05T13:38:40.884-05:002017-03-05T13:38:40.884-05:00You said Obama did this.

Crimes are prosecuted by the Attorney General (not the President). There are limitations on the 1st Ammendment and this seems to concern one of them. Milbank has an opinion -- he is not a judge or jury and cannot decide whether the Attorney General was correct to pursue the leak of classified information as espionage or not.<br /><br />But in any case, Obama didn't do this and the statement is a lie, as I claimed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-87074673856105596982017-03-05T13:27:39.519-05:002017-03-05T13:27:39.519-05:00Ambiguity is disambiguated by context according to...Ambiguity is disambiguated by context according to pragmatics and praxis.<br /><br />It would be very silly to think that such a statement meant ALL global warming.

Fox News contributor Judge Andrew Napolitano commented: "This is the first time that the federal government has moved to this level of taking ordinary, reasonable, traditional, lawful reporter skills and claiming they constitute criminal behavior."[13]<br /><br />An editorial board of the New York Times wrote: "With the decision to label a Fox News television reporter a possible 'co-conspirator' in a criminal investigation of a news leak, the Obama administration has moved beyond protecting government secrets to threatening fundamental freedoms of the press to gather news."[14]<br /><br />Dana Milbank of the Washington Post stated: "The Rosen affair is as flagrant an assault on civil liberties as anything done by George W. Bush’s administration, and it uses technology to silence critics in a way Richard Nixon could only have dreamed of. To treat a reporter as a criminal for doing his job — seeking out information the government doesn’t want made public — deprives Americans of the First Amendment freedom on which all other constitutional rights are based."[15]<br /><br />Department of Justice[edit]<br />Days prior on May 15, 2013, Attorney General Holder had testified under oath in front of the House Judiciary Committee that he had recused himself from the leak investigations to avoid any appearance of a conflict of interest. Holder said his Deputy Attorney General, James M. Cole, was in charge of the AP investigation and would have ordered the subpoenas.[16] When questioning turned to the possibility of journalists being charged under the Espionage Act for reporting classified material, Holder stated: "With regard to the potential prosecution of the press for the disclosure of material, that is not something that I've ever been involved in, heard of or would think would be a wise policy."[17]<br /><br />On May 23, 2013, NBC confirmed with the Justice Department that Holder had personally signed off on the Rosen case. The Justice Department defended their decision and spoke about a balance between protecting national secrets and the 1st Amendment, stating: "After extensive deliberations, and after following all applicable laws, regulations and policies, the Department sought an appropriately tailored search warrant under the Privacy Protection Act."[18] The revelation brought into question whether Holder was being intentionally misleading during his previous testimony when he denied knowing of, or being part of possible prosecutions of journalists. House Committee members sent an open letter to Holder, saying: "It is imperative that the committee, the Congress, and the American people be provided a full and accurate account of your involvement."[19]"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-74536246668466473012017-03-05T10:47:40.300-05:002017-03-05T10:47:40.300-05:00You are right, 10:08.

That the Atlantic article is an example of selectively painting the other tribe as one thing (in this instance painting half of them as deplorable racists) by ignoring the overlap between the 2 groups (a third of us are also by the same logic and stats). Ie, 'all' over 'some' thinking in the Coates article. Don't you think he should have mentioned that a third of Clinton supporters polled as deplorably racists by his own standard?

Does that my generalization about cats wrong? No, not in any sane world.<br /><br />Are there any people who can think about any topic without using these sorts of generalizations? No. It is necessary to create them as mental heuristics that support both reasoning and memory. Do they produce perfect, always accurate results? Of course not, especially when there are exceptions, odd cases, unusual circumstances. But most of the time, they get the job done.<br /><br />People evolved in a world where there were fewer exceptions to generalities, fewer oddities and unexpected circumstances. It was safer to conclude that all foxes had fur, winter followed summer, people who smiled were friends and those who yelled were angry, and so on. Our world is more complex now and perhaps produces more mistakes using our normal cognitive processes. But we aren't going to undo tens of thousands of years of evolution in a couple hundred years. So our minds are going to keep functioning the way that worked best for them when we came up as mammals.<br /><br />I am tired of hearing an ignorant Somerby object to the way language and thinking works in normal human beings. If he wants to be Gandhi on the mountain, more power to him, but it is wrong to keep calling "us, the liberals" ugly names just because he wanted Sanders to win the last election. And yes, many of us do care about black children and their education. We wouldn't be here is that weren't true. Heaven knows we aren't here for any other reason. And we populate the blogs elsewhere that are 100% devoted to education topics.

In making his claim he cited the "disturbing facts" in this survey: <br /><br />http://fingfx.thomsonreuters.com/gfx/rngs/USA-ELECTION-RACE/010020H7174/USA-ELECTION-RACE.jpg<br /><br />You can see the survey says just under 50% of Trump supporters view blacks are more violent that whites - but you can also see and what he didn't say was that over 30% of Clinton supports said the same thing - blacks are more violent than whites. So, using his same logic, thirty percent of Clinton supporters were also deplorable racists which is close to turning the "some" into "all"s as Somerby is speaking about here and burying the "more overlap than difference among the two groups" as he mentions here. That's one example.
