What gets me is how criticism of AIPAC = criticism of Israel itself for some reason. They’re not the Israeli government or officially tied to them in any way. It’s a legal bribery— er, lobbying venture. (Just like with the Catholic League, which everyone bends over backwards to appease, even though they have nothing…

I feel you. My favorite theater as a kid was like that, but it had one, larger screen. It was originally an actual theater - and sometimes used as such - so it seats 1,500. Thankfully, it’s not only is still there, but it’s been fully renovated. (Look for interior pics of the Virginia Theater in Champaign, Illinois.…

A 2017 poll showed that over half of Republicans would be fine with letting Trump postponing the 2020 election. 

Yup, they touched on that in her interview in Rolling Stone. She’s in a position where she — as the impetuous, crazy youngster — can safely bring up topics like universal healthcare or universal income. She lets the leadership stay at a distance while getting people talking about the stuff. Her job is to nudge the…

Alice in Chain’s “Would?” on the Singles soundtrack... Love that song.

Not too surprising, the woman has a law degree from Oxford.

Too bad James Comey didn’t follow that rule.

Warning sirens were going off well before the election. As in, the entire intelligence community, as well as news reports documenting Trump’s weird behavior regarding Russia dating back to the 80s. Obama wanted to go public with it, but Mitch McConnell torpedoed it. Harry Reid is on record writing to James Comey about…

Other direction, Champaign-Urbana.

Maximilian, man... That was one scary-ass robot.

*Correction: It’s “The Rocinante (nee Tachi)”. 

I see what you did there. Have your star.

This has been specifically addressed by the Supreme Court. Schools can’t force students to recite the pledge. The teacher has no leg to stand on.

The kid’s family’s lawyer needs to hand the school board a copy of the 1943 Supreme Court ruling in West Virginia State Board of Education v. Barnette. It’s been the settled law of the land for 75 years that the state can’t compel students to recite the pledge. And then sue the ever-loving fuck out of them.

I couldn’t even make it through the first episode.

I’ll betcha anything that she’s also “morally” opposed to all contraceptives and sex education, too.

She was talking about AIPAC lobbying dollars, not Israel. Not the same damn thing at all. Like that blowhard Bill Donohue and his “Catholic League” claiming to speak for the Catholic church when his scam group isn’t affiliated with it in any way.

Ah, you mean Cohen the Barbarian. (“What is best in life?” “Hot water, good dentishtry, and shoft lavatory paper.”) I’d be up for The Last Action Hero, but with Conan.

You can always spot the out-of-towners - they tend to pronounce it “may-jer”...

Da Jewels on Kedzie down by dere?
