    Leonhard takes occasional leaves of absence. This isn't his first. Ben lives in Prague.

      We used to have somebody here from somewhere in the Caribbean, but I can't remember where.

It will probably pass with a large majority and be relatively uncontroversial.

          Wow, so we used to have a real pirate on these forums and not just a Real Pirate™ like Sparko claims he is?

            Andius is from Guatemala but hasn't posted for nearly 6 months. Of course he tends to post sporadically

              How many of your fellow Kiwi support your view that children can still be aborted several months after their birth?

                And yet when I look around online there’s quite a few New Zealand anti abortion groups. It’s almost as if you live in the very bubble you accuse others of living in and don’t even know what people outside your own bubble think. Nice slight of hand though because we’re talking about your post birt abortion views.

                    It seems to push Republicans out of California, which helps to make the state government more blue, but does little in the national scale.

                          Even if he is impeached, it can't go anywhere without the Senate voting to remove him.
                          The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

                              That's what Nixon thought as well. Embarrass republican senators enough with transparency of evidence and they'll cave just like Goldwater did during Watergate. But I don't necessarily want him impeached so long as we have actual congressional oversite in place rather than a complicit republican Congress like we've had for the last 2 years. I would rather he be voted out and then indicted for all of his many crimes including conspiracy and high treason. But if the Mueller investigation ends and the report comes out soon, there may be no choice but to impeach him immediately.

                                It sure sucks that there’s still zero evidence that these crimes exist, huh?
