I’ve been listening whilst working, but I kind of loved this logic: the VRA was necessary because Southern States were disenfranchising minorities. But removing it was right because it targeted only Southern States and that’s bad. But the laws being passed now by Republican leaders (mostly in Southern States) aren’t…

you guys know they’re going to instigate and say awful things to start fights and then blame liberals for it, right?

eh. the reason it’s not effective is because the republicans have trained their base to not care and un-invested democrats are too concerned with the “process” to approve of the impropriety. Changing Chants won’t work.

there’s a reason “bless your heart” isn’t a compliment.

Somehow I have more respect for Jim Jeffords’s principled stand than Snowe’s. If you hate your party so much, don’t give them a free seat.

Too late to be cynical, too early to be idealists. Wheee.

and us Gen-Yers... don’t exist anymore :(

I mean, there’s nothing in the rulebook saying a dog can’t play basketball.

I mean, they didn’t forget. They just don’t care or believe it because there’s no such thing as rape, only vindictive false rape allegations.

he would have galvanized more of the youth vote than Hillary, but he’d have lost minorities in trade. and then middle America would have been *rough* once there was time to play up the evil specter of Jewish and socialism. Not to mention how much voter turnout would have been depressed once everything devolved into a…

I hope Phyllis Schlafly is dealing with a Greek Myth in Hades level existence in Hell.

Eh, Scandinavia is a socialist paradise as long as you can pass for a native and you’re not too badly impacted by Seasonal Affective Disorder.
