I thought the issue was that it's traditional, or etiquette, usual, or expected that a Supreme Court nomination is not made in the the last year of a presidential term and definitely not when a presidential campaign is under way.
I thought the issue was that lots of people (who I think might be Republicans) have previously publicly called for a nomination to be delayed if a position arises in the last year of a presidential term and definitely once a presidential campaign is under way, are now backing Donald Trump nominating someone at this crucial time.
I thought the issue was that Trump should wait until after he has been re-elected to make the nomination.
That's what it's like having a conversation with you, Gal.
Sometimes I give up because getting a simple answer out of you is like getting blood out of a stone.
You sometimes do that 'boy' thing my daughter's English teacher told me about where you write for yourself, assuming readers know what's going on inside of your head. Apparently girls tend to write for their audience, including all the contextual information the reader needs to make sense of the story.
There are parts of that which sound remarkably like my neighbour's washing machine, or my tinnitus.
Generally, I prefer to listen to a territorial dispute between the local cats than country and western. At least I can work out what the cats are saying and they're not nearly so annoying.
I can hear my neighbour's unbalanced washing machine in the flat below me. Does that count?
Well, when I say I can 'hear' it, I really mean I can feel it, but I'm fairly deaf, so it's all the same to me.
I'm probably not being very progressive about my house listening, either. I'm fretting about the state of her bearings.
If I were more progressive, I'd be thinking it's her right to knacker the living daylights out of an expensive piece of kit and to hell with the landfill environmental time bomb of it all.
I think I've failed you, but at least you've got one post in your thread.
What are the boundaries that would make it acceptable, or unacceptable for you to destroy the foundations of a house?
If you destroy the foundations of a house on a whim, like Selenite said, you may be guilty of trespass, criminal damage, or other legal offences.
If you destroy the foundations of a house because there's no planning permission for whatever reason, or you think it's on your land, for example, you may be within your rights.
However, if there is a dispute of some kind, we expect to go through a process where the situation is discussed, evaluated from everyone's perspective and a decision is made. If you don't go through that process, you will likely be subject to the law regardless of whether the builder of the potential house was within their rights to build the foundations, or not.
Absolutes do not work in many circumstances because of the variables.
How do you think that kind of judgemental language might effect a family where an ectopic pregnancy was terminated to save the mother's life, even though it was a much wanted fourth child and sibling?

The Polish version is better:Don't teach your grandfather how to piss in a bottle.
