I’m pretty sure women would like to be kicking YOUR butt, Rand Paul.

Uh, except that’s the kind of shit libertarians say all the time, Rand. The claim that it was facetious was all about saving your misogynist ass.

Every Corgi I’ve ever met has been a nasty little bastard.

Awesome! They can call it brewage.

Thank you Joel McHale. I’d extend that moratorium to the new usage of the term “curated.” Putting a bunch of makeup samples in a box does not make you a “curator.”

Oh, me too!

I confess, I’ve never watched an episode of the Real Housewives of anywhere. I hope I can make that same statement on my dying day.

Wow. I didn’t ever get that from Laura and George. They seemed so disconnected from one another. Their body language did not indicate closeness or comfortability. Plus she always looked high as a kite on some kind of medication - the kind of medication you’d need to be married into the Bush family. Barbara Bush is the…

My uncle was extraordinarily wealthy. Every day he donned Dickies work pants and went to have coffee with the geezers at the local coffee shop in the small New England town he spent summers in. (Winters in Florida) To look at him, you’d never have known. My aunt wore classic casual clothing - kinda Talbotsy. No…

I'm looking forward to this. Patti Smith is a good writer and an interesting thinker. I'm thrilled that she's important enough that a Patti Smith thread has trolls!

Riiiiiight - you’re not telling me how to vote, you’re just telling me how to vote! Thanks for clearing that up.

Perhaps if you’re so tired you should take a nap, dear. I find the fluidity with which you’ve chosen a “position” to be quite amusing. You went from telling me that we weren’t building new weapons, to acknowledging we are going to, to spinning that into being “those NEW weapons I was in denial about don’t count as NEW…

You know what, crappy? If even half of the people who blubber about how he can’t win got behind him, he might just fucking win.

Oh, I see. How we handle and maintain the nukes we already have is irrelevant, as long as we can build some more of them, but spin it as “updating.”

Oh, I get it. You just have to somehow “win” this discussion. That YOU consider new weapons an “upgrade” and not “new weapons” is what I’m really supposed to be paying attention to.

That’s how the cycle of shitty candidates perpetuates itself. Thanks for the illustration.

So now we’re moving the goalposts? I said new weapons, you said no. I brought proof, you say yes - BUT fewer!

There is a plan to upgrade the nuclear arsenal - but it also includes developing new weapons and warheads. http://www.defenseone.com/ideas/2015/02/… and http://www.armscontrol.org/act/2014_05/Nu…

You may recall then, that we were sold both Clintons as a package deal. And if you think the Democratic Party has moved to the left, I’d say you haven’t been paying attention.

In other words, you aren’t willing to do any heavy lifting for a good candidate, but you’ll insult those who don’t accept the inevitability of Clinton.
