Links for 07/12/16 | National Catholic Reporter

Links for 07/12/16 | National Catholic Reporter by MSW. MGB: Speaker Ryan is pretty much a creature of ideology, which is why we need to argue about what is and is not data.  That is actually not a good thing when the person second in line to the presidency has trouble deliniating what is good information.



The new President and the new Speaker should certainly discuss things publicly, but I doubt that Speaker Pelosi would differ much from Madame President.  HRC gets to debate Trump - as pathetic as that sounds.  Still, thinking some of the states would pick up the slack from welfare reform in bad times is most naive - or that NAFTA was not a giving over of state sovereigny to multi-national corporations.  Still, Trump is worse on the naivete scale than Clinton.



I do agree with Tony, as does Bruce Bartlett, that the NRA defends guns for white people, rather than for those who are fighting back against state tyranny (in which case they would have to praise the Dallas sniper).  It's time to take the guns, as I said yesterday - from the police too (since they seemed to be laced with the kind of racism that Tony talks about).
