Her stance on the TPP is indicative, at least to me, that her platform on business is more out of convenience than principle. Terry McAuliffe just got in trouble this week for saying he was sure she’d sign it once she was in office.

Yeah, it does have that potential. I think Clinton would be, in many ways, a continuation of Obama’s policies, both good and bad. Trump is an obvious dumpster fire, but he’s an easy to grasp one. He’s ego, personified. Clinton, on the other hand, is widely regarded as untrustworthy. She’s a career politician who has…

Business regulations affect tax bases, which in turn impact education and public health services, which directly affects how much people support gay rights, or get the sex education/contraceptives that lowers the need for abortions to begin with. They ALSO impact things like factories poisoning water tables and large…

Trans woman, actually, not a bro. And yeah, politics is compromise. I don’t expect a perfect politician. I didn’t consider Obama a perfect candidate when he was elected. I don’t see the Greens as perfect either - nuclear power’s a vital interest that does vastly less damage to the environment than most other energy…

I try to avoid hyperbole when I can. I’m not perfect, but I think calling Secretary Clinton a warhawk is justified.

You say I shouldn’t complain when Trump appoints a conservative SCOTUS pick, or when coal companies get big subsidies, or when we enter a new ground war. My entire complaint here is that I expect at least two of those three things to happen anyway. I expect subsidies for big business - she’s friendly to big business.…

As much as Trump scares me (and he really, REALLY does scare me), I can’t bring myself to vote for Hillary Clinton with a clear conscience. The DNC did everything they could to ensure her victory behind the scenes short of vote tampering. And when the chair of the DNC was forced to step down because of it - she was…

Mr. Fish is the only appropriate name for a Magikarp.

My point was less “we shouldn’t do anything because it’s hard” and more “what’s the compromise you can live with?”. Your position is basically the opposite extreme of “no restrictions ever”. Neither one’s gonna fly.

Okay, but you just made gun ownership the exclusive domain of the rich and the criminal.

They’re written, federal judges have canons of ethics to follow like any state judge or attorney. That said, she likely doesn’t care because the only way a Supreme Court justice leaves is retirement, impeachment, or death, and the last time a SCotUS justice was impeached was literally over 200 years ago. And he wasn’t…

Advertising disclosure regulations tend to require more than “It’s public record”, because nobody has the time to look up the stockholders and executive officers behind every company. Someone’s going to sue these guys for fraud, and they’re gonna have a pretty easy time of it.

If he has a reliable way to cash out Steam Wallet credit, he could be doing it just to make a living off of it.

Freddie Gray’s spinal cord was 80% severed. The kind of force it requires to cause that kind of damage is usually reserved for head-on collisions or getting hit BY the car. Two factors could have prevented that kind of injury - properly securing the individual, and driving in a safe, reasonable manner. Both of those…

Maybe because he was a temperamental, racist, genocidal, slave trading shitbag of a president.

Not sure if this was an intentional reference or not, but she actually DOES have a cartoon voice - Livewire, from the Bruce Timm Superman and Batman series. I was a little disappointed that Lori Petty wasn’t tapped to play Livewire on Supergirl - it would have been a nice callback!

So, my choices this election are the guy who used a shooting based in hatred of the LGBT community to further his call to hate Muslims, or the woman who said Nancy Reagan was a strong advocate for AIDS victims.

Happy people don’t proclaim how happy they are at the top of their lungs to anyone who’ll listen. They also tend not to make masturbatory declarations of superiority to everyone else because of how ‘enlightened’ they are. And again, it’s not materialism to want a good tool.

Enough to crush wild little brats that can’t keep their hands off of things they shouldn’t touch, hopefully.

Riiight, because there’s no self-righteousness in declaring how much smarter than everyone else you are for not being a sheep.
