" 'How unattractive are we?" she said. "We are high-risk, we are high-cost. Why does anyone want to say, 'Come on, Alaska, bring all your expensive cases to us?' They don't want us.'" Really! Wonder who, exactly, is "they" and from what public testimony the Senator drew this conclusion. Remember, the state Labor Department reported health care (obamacare) is one of Alaska's only two growth industries, so it seems reasonable to ask what the Senator plans for us "expensive unwanteds".

" 'For this reason, free markets do not constitute a first principle of economic justice. Their moral worth is instrumental in nature and must be structured by government to accomplish the common good.'" Good enough as far as it goes. But, Bishop McElroy, the "free market" is pretty much the only economic model on the table today. So what do you propose to replace it with & how? Unless & until you can articulate with clarity & precision what it is you are proposing as an alternative (beyond just economic regulations for their own sake), I'm afraid you're not going to be very persuasive to many Catholics, let alone voters. You're not even convincing rank & file union members anymore (who support Keystone, etc.). What do you propose to replace globalized free trade with? A border adjustment tax along the lines proposed by the GOP? And what will you say to those millions of workers in other countries who have been economically benefitted in the last decade by globalized trade?

" "What are they going to do? Feed only little girls?" Um no, that's ridiculous." Why do you say it is ridiculous? Did you not read the comment above yours by Antares describing exactly that?

" "The president cited that one of his reasons for firing Comey as FBI Director was that he had lost the public's trust and was unable to carry out the duties needed for the job. It is now our job to restore that trust," Murkowski said." If that's the case, we should fire the President.

" Under Trump and Ryan's tax plan the lowest income earners and middle class will see a tax increase" Can you back that up ?

" Sexsmith has and still does make big money," Proof? Like many recording\touring Canadian musicians, he does not make a lot of money. Poor airplay options, long expensive tours - you really think he chose to rent even if he didn't have to?

" One of Canada’s biggest stock managers says bull market has room to run " Of course he does. One question: Does he makes more money or less if he can keep people in his fund? Absolutely no hint of self-interest or bias here. Move along and buy more stocks on your way out.

" ... an unconscious person cannot consent to sexual activity..." Does this apply to an unconscious male?

" "White Nationalist." More liberal gobbledygook that is clearly marginalizing people, which is your want." . Actually, "White Nationalist" is conservative "gobbledygook." Like "alt-right" it was introduced because it sounds better than "white supremacist" and "racist".

" The Ontario government says it will maintain a cap on increases to undergraduate tuition of 3 per cent a year for the next two year" Why should it be mandatory to increase tuition. There's plenty of money for cheaper education for our youth. Plenty. Stop wasting on undocumented refugee programs, billions given away around the world by the selfie PM for dubious causes, billions more on failed green energy scams. Make higher education available and inexpensive for the poorer of our future leaders.

" In a statement, Clinton thanked Wasserman Schultz and said she would serve as a surrogate for her campaign and as honorary chairwoman of a 50-state program to build the party in every part of the country." H-Y-P-O-C-R-I-T-E ! Another sharp stick in the eye for Democrats from the Blue Dogs - you know the ones that never met a banker they didn't like. Putting Wasserman Schultz in charge of a 50-State Strategy IS putting the fox in the chicken coop. It was because of THE CLINTONS that I left the Democratic Party. It was The Clintons and the Democratic Leadership Council (DLC - aka "Blue Dogs") that destroyed local Democratic organizations in all 50 States so that THEY could control the national party - it worked. And yes I know I'm shouting a bit.

!This rigid and misleading "take" on clerical celibacy is revelatory of two other related problems in today's Roman Catholic church: Catholic marriage teaching, and human sexuality itself. The institutional Catholic church urgently needs to changs its unfeeling ways, or forfeit even more of its credibility!

!/3 of this Alaska's voters are like me not registered to any party, we are the independent voters who split our tickets all the time and if Clinton is not far behind Trump it is the independents that she is getting a lot of support from and is chasing his tail.

!!! FYI everyone, just click YES on all comments. FREE SPEECH MUST RULE.. Break the system!!! The election was 3 weeks ago. Even Obama's transition team didn't come together until Jan 2009. And Obama's campaign manager defended Trump's transition on this fact.
