Yeah, someone just pointed that out above. If you read their link though, it is pretty clear that it is a procedural move to limit the ability of non-profit entities to beat up on him too much without putting their status at risk by influencing politics. Really, it is a pretty clever move on his part.

Democrats had a chance to stop it but they conspired to push aside the one person who had a shot and would have done that so that they could keep the promise they made to HRC 8 years ago when she stepped aside.

Relax. I think you may have missed the part where the President IS NOT LIKE ANY OTHER US CITIZEN to the military. He is the commander in chief of the armed forces and therefore their boss. I am a US citizen, I am not their boss. You see that there is a difference? The election is over, they are not campaigning.

It was a stupid move, however... This isn’t the same thing as you cited. The election is over. They aren’t campaigning. I know it is difficult for some people to get their heads around, but Trump is now the Commander in Chief of the armed forces. That makes him their boss.

Sure they were. And the morons at Berkeley were all too eager to oblige. All they had to do was protest. You want to make a human chain and block the entrance, fine. You want to chant or shout great. You want to set stuff on fire???? WTF? These people got played. I honestly wasn’t even aware of this tour until this…

Help me out, I haven’t followed all of this over the last couple of years in detail. It seems like the consensus is that Dr. Luke did do some very bad stuff. Was there ever an admission or proof that the allegations against Dr. Luke were true? A very quick search doesn’t turn up any information that Dr. Luke was…

Gee, I wish we had more of those ice breaking machines

This is weak. $250? Please. Rich-ish people go with the AmEx Centurion card with the $2.5K fee. To qualify you have to spend a few hundred K on a regular AmEx in a single year, then you get the invite and your horizons magically expand. From what I hear their concierge service is excellent.

Quote from my wife: “They aren’t my people.”

And there the idiot goes and plays right into the ass-hat’s hands. He and his people will parade this around as a “typical” example.  And you folks celebrating violence are no better.

Wait, how do you run a horrible campaign and win the popular vote?

Just like all ~isms, conservatism isn’t a box with rigid lines. Trump doesn’t really fit cleanly into a traditional liberal/conservative mold. Trump won over a lot of union workers (D) with his protectionist talk.

The license plates on my old truck were almost always so dirty that they couldn’t be read. I didn’t bother putting the new tabs on. I never got pulled over. Of course this approach is incompatible with the reasons many people buy current model year AMGs.

A loosely collected group of male sport bike riders I was with was called “cute” by a dude wearing leather a leather vest and chaps at a burger joint out in the middle of nowhere. So I think the author might be taking too much to heart.

So he couldn’t even be bothered to to learn enough to get the bike out on stage without training wheels?

None of that contradicts what I said. I said he wasn’t convicted of treason, and he wasn’t. Your definition of treason and whether you think he committed it or not does not matter. 

Your example isn’t relevant in the slightest. He wasn’t convicted of releasing classified information, treason, espionage, or anything of the sort. At least try to get in the same ball park. He lied to congress, you know, the same thing Bill Clinton did. (See I can play the red herring straw man game too.)

The first one? Petraeus? He took a plea deal for removing classified information and none of it was ever published. He was not convicted on 20 counts of disclosure.

None of these come anywhere close to the quantity of level of information leaked by Manning.

But if the average sentence for her crime is 3.5 years, she’s already served that time. She has paid her debt.
