Thank God she got a $6 million settlement in her civil suit. I have this theory as an attorney that the only way rape victims can get vindication anymore is through the civil system. I have represented rape victims pro bono to file lawsuits against their attackers, and against the police department, and will continue…

Halfway across the country, a professor has been fired from Florida Atlantic University for writing that the Sandy Hook shooting was a hoax to influence the passage of gun control legislation.

The young men aren't much better, I watched Ex Machina over the weekend and I'd be shocked to learn that there was a woman in any kind of decision making capacity on that project.

Yes, how dare she, as a woman, be multi-dimensional and have multiple thoughts at once. shame.

Well, no one can say you didn’t try.

I highly appreciate that you’ve wound ‘Witty and Topical...’ up so highly with this simple, sourced, researched post.

Ooo fascinating. This is real time Confirmation Bias unfolding right here. You read the facts and still chose not to believe them. I always wondered how people got from A to B when facts contradicted their strongly held beliefs, but there you have it.

That meme doesn’t apply: I was never, at any point, losing the debate with you. You never even debated! You simply walked in the room, took a dump on the floor and claimed superiority.

Lol. I’m sorry I wrote you a coherent and thoughtful reply. After reading further through the thread, it’s abundantly clear that:

“LOOK HOW BAD THE LAST 7 YEARS HAVE BEEN FOR AFRICAN-AMERICANS DURING OBAMA’S PRESIDENCY!”

Wow, that was pretty disingenuous of you. The article actually explains that the only reason for this is that the black people who are being denied benefits of ACA are living in red states that have opted out of increased Medicaid coverage.

You would have to be to have that Ben Carson level of cognitive dissonance.

Absolute garbage person. The social safety net is the only reason she, her mother, and her daughter were able to have the possibilities they did. Now she’ll slit the throat of anyone else born in her circumstances.

Honorable Mention to Tennessee Congresswoman Marsha Blackburn, who barely hides the fact she’s in bed with the Comcast lobby and actively fights against Net Neutrality and consumer choice in regards to ISPs, even though Chattanooga has shown in spades that competition works.

KIRBY DELAUTER!!!

MEN. They are the worst. My ex told me just before I started studying for the bar that he didn’t think he could be supportive for three whole months while I studied. (That’s not as bad as not picking you up from EFFING JAIL but I wanted to also share a MEN. story.

OMG THS ISN’T REAL?

WHITE PEOPLE PLEASE COME GATHER THESE LADIES.

An entirely reasonable comparison that any reasonable person would draw.

I dunno, I feel George looks less “chill” and more “Dickensian orphan forced to perform for the cruel masters to earn his keep.”
