If Snyder is charged with anything —and he should be— it will be by the Feds. There is precisely 0% chance that Schuette brings charges against Snyder. Schuette has his eyes set on occupying the Governor’s mansion in 2018. He’s not going after any high-powered Republican/Heritage Foundation/ Mackinac Center member…

The difference is that you are required, by law, to carry some form of health insurance no matter what. There is no situation where you don’t have to have health coverage under the ACA.

You should probably figure out what pearl clutching is before you go throwing that phrase around.

He purposely took and destroyed private property. I don’t know where the hell you live, but in every jurisdiction I have ever lived, that certainly falls under things you can’t do under the criminal justice laws. Get out of here with that non-criminal shit.

It is rude as hell. It’s also not illegal. He was in a public place. He was fair game to have his picture taken. The same as any other person is fair game. It’s not the average Joe/Jane’s fault that people don’t want to take their picture as often as people want to take Murray’s. I bet that it’s annoying as hell for…

Closer to 40. Volunteer on both the Gore and Kerry campaigns. So yeah, I remember them well.

To be fair, election cycles prior to 08 were significantly different than they are now. The only voices prior to those elections that were heard were the voices of the media. Other than that, you had some obscure blogs and forums where voices would maybe be heard. Social media was basically non-existent. The entire…

To be clear, that was a pretty weak endorsement, and it wasn’t an endorsement over other propositions. It was simply an agreement that the Federal Government needs to be tougher on Wall Street.

This is nothing like Laura Bush. Laura Bush was a spouse and nothing more. Bill Clinton is a former sitting president and a hugely influential politician to this day. To not acknowledge that and cast him in the same light as a politician’s spouse is disingenuous at best. Believing that he, as a former president, will…

That’s exactly what my point is, though the craptstic keyboard on my phone may have caused some issues conveying that.

It’s no5 sexist. It’s reality, whether you want it to be or not. Her husband was a sitting president. He is one of the most influential international figures on the face of the earth. His past is important 5o her election prospects whether she, or you, like it or not. HRC knew 5his going in, if she didn’t know this,…

Pacman probably should have gotten a 1 game ban for that slamming Cooper’s head down into his helmet.

Tom Brady graduated from the University of Michigan. No matter how dumbed-down the curriculum is for football players, he most certainly would have left that campus knowing what the word ‘everything’ means. If he didn’t mean everything, he shouldn’t have said everything.

There’s a name for what you claim to be - a moderate democrat - and that name is a republican.

As a former Iowa student and frequent patron of the sports column and the approximately 2300 other bars in the ped mall, I can say with some certainty that this behavior is not out of line with a typical UI students’s Thurs/Fri/Sat night.

This, even more than the adultery and general fuckery, is why I laugh every time the GOP claims to be the party of “family values.”

This. Exactly this.

Brad Ausmus needs to be punched in the dick repeatedly. Our bullpen sucks, but he keeps doing the same fucking thing game after game and expects a different result. Fuck Brad Ausmus to hell.

This. Exactly this. I hate all things UofM Athletics. I would love for Brady Hoke to not be a shithead, because he is a terrible fucking coach and Michigan would continue to be terrible.
