You’re in the Middle East where war has raged for thousands of years yet you somehow develop an illusion delusion of safety?

No. It’s not legal. Congress may have passed a law or several laws saying it’s legal but those laws contradict the constitution so are invalid. Only a constitutional amendment can override a constitutional edict. There has been no such amendment.

Same goes for tariffs.

Lady Lindsey has never seen a war it didn’t love to sell arms for. You should have seen it creaming all over itself on Meet the Press the day after the attacks started.

Of course he cares for the suckers and losers.

I did not have sex with that woman.

July

Didn’t smell like cat pee when I visited and there were many cats. A couple were on that bed. Some were on shelves in the gift store. Basically, they’re everywhere.

Oh. You’re right. Dana did Bush the first. Wouldn’t be prudent.

But that’s the point. Congress CANNOT cede authority without amending the constitution. Any ‘law’ they make doing so is invalid because it violates the constitution. A LAW CANNOT OVERRIDE THE CONSTITUTION.

I think it’s kind of Legal?

Here’s the thing. The constitution says CONGRESS levies taxes, not the president. Any law CONGRESS passes must be IN PURSUANCE OF THE CONSTITUTION. Making a law that abrogates any part the constitution is not IN PURSUANCE OF THE CONSTITUTION. The only way to do that is TO AMEND the constitution.

So, no. It’s not kind of legal.

and any judge worth the air it would take make such a statement should FUCKING KNOW THAT!

Harks back to the Viet Nam war. We had to destroy the village to save the village. I believe this is the one where the Pulitzer prize winning photo of the naked little girl running with massive burns from napalm happened.

There used to be a satirical musical group called the Capitol Steps that sang a song called “Bomb, Bomb, Bomb, Iran” sung to the tune of the Beach Boys Barbara Ann. This was at 20 years ago. Unfortunately, Covid killed the group (as in made it no longer viable because people quit coming to see them, not actually killing them).

I wish they’d try to make a comeback.

It will probably trip and fall then jump saying it’s OK. Gerald Ford actually like Dana Carvey’s portrayal of him.

In answer to your question: yes. Humid cold pure air. By pure, I mean no contaminates until the hyrdrocarbons from the jet fuel are emitted into that pure, moist air. To form a droplet, a nucleus is needed. The hydrocarbons of the jet engine exhaust provide that nuclueus.

Well, it’s impossible to ban natural clouds but planes could avoid making contrails by just not flying in the zone where their exhaust would cause them. Source: I was a weatherman in the Air Force and would tell military pilots where to fly to not have a shiny line pointing to their exact location if such information could be a concern.

I never thought it about as a green house thing before though I do remember reading an article many years ago that contrails do contribute when they spread out into cirrostratus clouds.

I was a meteorologist in the Air Force and did make forecasts telling pilots at what levels to fly to avoid making contrails since having a long silver line pointing to your exact location makes sneak attacks a little difficult. Perhaps commercial airlines should make use of that information. It’s usually just a few thousand foot difference. Fly a little higher or lower and problem solved.
