I'm not talking about fiction, I'm talking about interviews with detectives on a show like 20/20. The way they talk about both people refusing to take the polygraph and whether they pass or fail belies a belif in their credib

There is really no evidence that it works, even in that way though. The fact that the person is being asked to take the test is a pretty good indication that investigators think there's something there. The suspicion caused the intervi

The next one is likely Chinese but if the next 4 are, it'll be because they put a pinstripe on the first company's rocket and called it their own.

It seems like it but the USA v China angle is way more complicated than these types of super power rivalries have been in the past. The USA is a massive part of the Chinese economy. It'd be weird for a country to attack either the larg

No, I'm saying that the slide didn't start with Trump. I also don't think much of what Trump is doing is much, if at all, worse than his predecessors but he has zero shame about it. Since he's in the news and it's o

Sometimes I wonder if people talking about corruption in the US have ever been to a country that is as corrupt as they say the US is. Pardons are not being openly sold. There is absolutely not great stuff going on with them but, really, the

I'm not really arguing against the ACA in particular, just the general sentiment. I do, however, think the passage and defense of the ACA has completely stopped any kind of healthcare reform movements from Democrats and completely turn

That doesn't track at all. I'm talking about legislation and, hence, legislatures.

You didn't mention the effectiveness or positive effects of the hypothetically passed legislation at all. You're arguing that it's good for a politician's resume.
