That would make him a naturalized citizen and not natural born, right? No one denies he is American by mother's citizenship but the whole vast right wing conspiracy about Obama's legitimacy is that being born in Kenya would disqualify him. Cruz hasn't announced he is running for president but when he does I fully…

You want us to believe there is no racial basis in why you & advertising companies might think Sharapova/Kournikova is unequivocally "hotter" than Serena?

I thought I was presenting my feelings on the issue in the public way I can. In my tiny part of the Internet universe this is my voice on the subject. And I say this without snark or sarcasm.

I hear you and I understand what you're saying but the "effort" was poorly executed, I thought. I get wanting to make the story and understanding digestible to a wide audience. But if it means not confronting what makes us uncomfortable, what's the point? If you can tuck yourself (not you personally but us…

I felt like Shonda fell into the trope that the only dead black kids we should care about are those of unassailable "good" characters. What if he did have a knife that although pulled out wasn't attacking the police officer? Should we care less? What if he had some weed in his pockets? Should we suddenly turn our…

Fair enough I did read through the entire comment section.

Nope. It wasn't the past tense of fight that got people riled up. You're the first one I've heard mention that reasoning actually. For most people it was deciding what she meant by "we" and "us".

I am no Kanye Stan nor hater. I think my Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy should have won Grammy album of the year & it was a major snub that it wasn't even nominated in that category.

I'm in DC. Where's this cheap gym?

I trust medical professionals to quarantine themselves bc they are in the business of diagnosis. Someone who has just spent time treating Ebola patients would be quite apt at recognizing symptoms.

She is a NURSE. She didn't say she was opposed to quarantine but rather the indignity of the situation. Uncertain why you personally should be sooo offended. But I'm certain all health care workers are appreciative of your appreciation of their selfless work but not their understanding of infectious diseases. Perhaps…

Wait one damn effing minute? How is it remotely funny to say a woman is in actuality a man? Where is joke is saying someone is frightening to look at? Fuck you, dickhead. An actual apology would be "I am the head of a tennis federation. At best I should be talking about athletes on their performances on the court. I…

Whenever someone says "I'm a Carrie", I judge. The character was just a terrible person. She would drop her friends for any available boy but expect her friends to drop everything for her. I never understood why this incredibly vapid self involved woman had such intelligent cultured women in her circle. She was the…

Oh EMTALA isn't coverage for care. Far from it. It's the $50,000 fine you (the physician) are subject to for violating it. It's the federal law that mandates any and all patients be seen, ensure no emergen, life threatening or disabling condition (less simple than it sounds) and that in turn you cannot "dump the…

Oh I'm not a conservative at all. (Cold chill ran down my spine). Wasn't my intent to make it seem like a safety net & I actually never implied such a thing (emergency care is one of the most expensive ways to get medical care putting you at risk personal bankruptcy). Because of EMTALA law ER docs are not only…

Sure it's legal. Only ER doctors are obligated by law to see patients whether they can pay or not. And a lot of doctors don't take insurance because insurance doesn't reimburse well. And a lot of elective procedures aren't covered by insurance so would have to pay out of pocket anyway.

To be fair...when has Mindy Kaling been cutting edge or controversial? Mindy Kaling, feminist?? Based on what? Her "comedy" is cutesy girl looking for the ONE. You could make her a barista or teacher in that show. Being a physician doesn't seem to inform her character in anyway. Prolly if it did up come it would…

Yeah. It was a sham. Unfortunately I watched that season and poor Kris Hump was played. He would talk about how he felt like she was more interested in the wedding than in marrying him, that she could insert any groom into her family's production. She never took his name & talked about how she didn't want to ruin her…

Wait a minute! Hold the presses! Why in the hell did that autopsy take so long? From March?? Police are sucking their teeth, rolling their eyes, snapping their fingers and declaring they have no fucks to give.

OMG. I didn't know this. Where was the knife raised to the police or the risk to the officers' safety? Plenty of bystanders walked by him w/o harm. So fucking ridiculous.
