Someone can be wrong and not lying. Lying is intentional. Being wrong isn’t. Honestly, there’s a whole body of research in psychology on unreliable memories. Heck, there’s a body of evidence suggesting that eye witness testimony isn’t reliable, even within 15 minutes.

Saying that Ford was mixed up in the details is attacking her?

Seeing as the one person she named as being there denied it happened, maybe Hatch is justified in saying that.

You don’t think that the 30+ years since this allegedly happened has something to do with it?

Don’t forget the bones. Put that in a pot, cover with water, and simmer for a few hours.

They have that space. OkCupid.

Actually, it looks as much like Serena as the Asian guy looks like Kim.

You know that Huntsman was also ambassador to China?

I was looking to see if anyone else brought that up.

Aldous Huxley promoted moral panics about atheism?

It’s not just the National Enquirer. Newsweek did this for Clinton (Bill) in the 90s. A whole host of news sources were aware of John Edward’s affair in 2008, but chose not to report on it.

I disagree on the 1984 vs Brave New World part.

Addressing that discomfort, and how we should

Well, how does importing cheap, pliant workers help the working class?

They didn’t bring it up, because there isn’t a market to speak ill of this dead man.

Agreed. I’m withholding judgement here (especially if Szabo had punched someone else earlier. If that happened, I say drop the charges, but . . .). Sad that someone died, but I don’t for a minute believe it was planned.

If Jamil is charged with manslaughter, we’ll get complaints from The Root anyways. So it all works out.

Mongolian Fire Oil (or Chili Oil) has always improved it for me.
