cum laude tier one law school, graded onto law review, but declined since I already had a job lined up and didn't want to do the dog and pony show required to be on law review so wrote for the second tier review instead because it didn't require anything but a paper, of course published twice since then, and lead counsel on a 500 page capital appeal, but sure, I don't know how to do legal analysis.

You are, put simply, a guy who can only debate or discuss by trying to belittle and mock. You can't make actual arguments or consider other arguments (which you need to do to make decent arguments).

You're just not a serious person worth having a serious conversation with. Feel free to make the final post with the same lame attacks, it's all you are good at.

Psaki: Student loan borrowers likely to have to pay debt 'sometime' [View all] brooklynite Apr 2022 OP

It's just going to lose young voters qazplm135 Apr 2022 #1

I do not understand this mcar Apr 2022 #3

Getting fed up with the young people's excuses for not voting Walleye Apr 2022 #6

So am I. This is the same perennial refrain that always seems to reappear. It is a threat. In 2016 JohnSJ Apr 2022 #23

But Democrats have the majority ck4829 Apr 2022 #26

Do you believe every Democrat in Congress will vote for student loan forgiveness, especially in the JohnSJ Apr 2022 #27

I believe that Democrats will prioritize people over debts, I hope I'm not wrong ck4829 Apr 2022 #28

Then why don't Democrats introduce the bill in Congress? While many Democrats have said they JohnSJ Apr 2022 #30

Why doesn't Biden just forgive the amount he said he could during the campaign? Cuthbert Allgood Apr 2022 #42

Because in the real world, Biden cannot forgive student loans by executive order LetMyPeopleVote Apr 2022 #95

Candidate Biden never said that he would cancel or forgive student debt. lapucelle Apr 2022 #118

Wah! Daddy promised! betsuni Apr 2022 #119

Yes he did. I know the spin now is that he was talking about signing legislation, Cuthbert Allgood Apr 2022 #127

Here is EXACTLY what candidate Biden said. lapucelle Apr 2022 #133

"I'm prepared to write off $10K debt, but not $50K because I don't think I have the authority..." Cuthbert Allgood Apr 2022 #135

President Biden has always maintained that he is prepared lapucelle Apr 2022 #146

So you are telling me that's what he meant when he said that during the campaign? Cuthbert Allgood Apr 2022 #147

OMG, so you think Americans believe the president can wave a wand and do what he wants all uponit7771 Apr 2022 #155

I'm not telling you that. Candidate Biden told everyone that. lapucelle Apr 2022 #163

A lot of young people went to the polls because of his stance on student debt Cuthbert Allgood Apr 2022 #164

Biden's stance was that loan forgiveness was a matter for legislation. lapucelle Apr 2022 #165

"I'm prepared to write off $10K debt, but not $50K because I don't think I have the authority..." Cuthbert Allgood Apr 2022 #166

No, millennials did not vote for Biden at a higher percentage than other age groups TexasTowelie Apr 2022 #177

A direct quote is not spin. N/T lapucelle Apr 2022 #134

"Biden said that he didn't have the power to do that " uponit7771 Apr 2022 #152

He said he didn't have the power to do $50K but was prepared to write off $10K. Cuthbert Allgood Apr 2022 #154

So the amount matters ?! No really, are you arguing EO would've done it? tia uponit7771 Apr 2022 #156

It was a campaign promise that was taken seriously by young voters Cuthbert Allgood Apr 2022 #158

The question is; is it your position an EO would've eliminated the 10k of debt? tia uponit7771 Apr 2022 #159

It is my position that he said he would write off $10K of student debt for all. Cuthbert Allgood Apr 2022 #160

In context of constitution it doesn't make sense for willing to be conflated with able. uponit7771 Apr 2022 #161

So why did he say he could do $10K but not $50K? Cuthbert Allgood Apr 2022 #162

Again, my daughter *CAN* drive my car if I let her ... and "was he confused" is a RW trope please uponit7771 Apr 2022 #167

Then why did he say what he said? What did he mean? Cuthbert Allgood Apr 2022 #168

Candidate Biden was clear in the editorial he wrote for Medium when he was running for President. lapucelle Apr 2022 #173

Probably not BradAllison Apr 2022 #31

I think you mean Manchin. While some Democrats on loan forgiveness, most are with limits and JohnSJ Apr 2022 #32
