Ivanka has also said a lot about how her Dad respects women, so I am not sure we can put much stock in what she has to say about things like that.

Why didn’t Trump know it would come to this?

Well, yes and no. I am willing to cut Ivanka a little slack, just because with Donald Trump as a father, you have to wonder how much of a healthy adult she is.

What about Ivanka being ill and he needs to rush to her bedside?

Sure, but her job depends on her Dad, and if she wants to inherit, she’ll need to keep him happy.

Jared visiting him, but not Ivanka could supply some cover for that: Ivana wasn’t there because the baby is sick, so Donald needs to be at their side...

It the 1970's there was a Doctor Who companion named Leela who was supposed to be a “noble savage” type from the far future.

Matt Damon has his moments. Remember him explaining diversity in Hollywood to a black film director?

If Ivana and Marla were free to speak, we’d have the motherload.

Context matters. When he was a POW he was not a coward. His more recent behaviour in the political arena has lacked moral courage.

Maybe it’s just me, but the vibe I get off the Clintons is that they actually do care quite a lot about each other, and Bill is tremendously proud of her accomplishments.

The study is about Alaskan ground squirrels. They have never seen an avocado tree and wouldn’t know what to do with it if they did.

Someone is just jealous that they didn’t get to participate in the debate. If she is serious about wanting to get power, instead of being a perrenial candidate, she should put down the Twitter and start working on building a party infrastructure for the Greens, instead of symbolically running for President every four…

Science nerd feels the need to point out that the study was on ground squirrels, not the tree squirrel which you put a picture of at the top of the article.

Retired Canadian General Romeo Dallaire has PTSD from his time as the UN Commander in Rwanda. He is in no way a weak man. A weak man would have pulled out of Rwanda when the genocide broke out, and it became clear that the UN force could not fulfill its original mandate, which was to oversee the implementation of…

This is a brilliant point.

I know, right?
