lawdude responded to a discussion called Talk-radio icon Rush Limbaugh says the Republican Party has a death wish in politics.

He's right to the extent that the Republicans, like the Democrats, are controlled by special interests. The New York congressional race is not on point. The financial conglemerates and elites control both politial parties and rule no matter what party is in power. I'm referring to big business, the public sector unions, the sports and media conglomerates, etc. We can get no meaningful immigrati...

lawdude responded to a discussion called Why do men like to watch sports more than women? in people.

I think it's because men are more aggressive and into sports more than women. That's not to demean women as athletes. Women can be well-toned and as athletic as men and great athletes.

Nobody can guarantee a perfect world free from toxins and carcinogens or even pathogens which are part of our environment. Life expectancy is inc...

I don't think anybody knows. It's like the age-old question about homosexuality - nature or nurture? From what I know, it is not unheard-of for straight people to have homosexual experiences. There seems to be different levels of sexuality from total heterosexuality to total homosexuality. Just my take on the subject.
