Very true. But given how well Trump’s supporters absorb evidence, I thought it prudent to stick to verifiable stories.

I’m going to blow your mind here, get ready. You see, it’s a phrase meant to connote an informal system through which an exclusive group uses their positions of influence to help others from the same background, social group, gender, etc. Do you support such a rigid read of the Constitution as well, Scalia?

And, I saw where the guy edited to add in later. Apologies. Haha. That part is rather fundamental to his original statement. Idk how it was ever left out.

Who keeps Obama though? I’m not prepared to loss him AND poke bowls in the same transaction.

Probably “as opposed to” the middle part of his quote you left out. The whole “on the ground” part. You never hunt a bird until it’s been flushed.

Isn’t that what his “I can stand in fifth avenue and shoot somebody and still not lose any votes” was?

I don’t understand this line of attack. As much as I loathe Trump, this was legal. Since we can safely assume Donald isn’t bunched over a calculator doing his own taxes, it would be the accountant’s fiduciary service to minimize the client’s tax burden. Should Trump and his accountants not operate under the same tax…

No, kids go for facial symmetry. There has been plenty of research on this. It’s the real basis for humanity’s aesthetic of beauty - one of our true unlearned behaviors. Good facial symmetry is often linked with good genetics which is probably the evolutionary basis for the phenomenon. Of course, having an open and…

Although I doubt you’re truly interested in honestly contrasting the two candidates, I will indulge your question in good faith. In fact, there are and have been numerous investigations (although not by FBI yet) into Trump’s conduct. Some of the different areas in which Trump has been accused of misdeeds include:…

Mr. Smith? You’re not very perceptive to be resorting to name calling. The PR angle statement was what I was granting you from your previous statement saying, but still contrasting your characterization of “goddamned serious.” It is negative, but manageable PR to have the riot gear pictures. If it’s so bad, where is…

Hillary is the old boys network though. I say that not from a volunteering perspective, but as having worked on political campaigns professionally for years. That is why she was so deftly able to activate state and local parties, get debate prep from Dem partisan ahead, DNC help on primary over Bernie, etc. These…

No. Hillary just has her own demons to deal with. Trump being a million times worse does not negate the corruption and contemptible behavior of Hillary Clinton (who I will still vote for). You are as ridiculous as the people saying both sides are equally bad if you sit here and crow Hillary is perfect and all this…

Brazile is the DNC chair. How is that not an equally partisan position as Lewandowski working on Trump’s campaign? It is okay to condemn bad behavior among Dems and still vote for the Party, you know.

Lewandowski is a Trump/Republican partisan. Brazile is a Clinton/Democrat partisan. That’s okay and what they were both hired to do on CNN - provide the narrative for half of the viewing population. The difference is Brazile leaked company information to a political candidate at the (potential) expensve of another and…

How so? I don’t feel using dogs (a great US civil rights image) and evicting from one camp with tear gas grenades is taking them very serious at all. Of course, they still have to mindful of the PR angle, but they are nowhere near as deferential to this much larger group (with celebrity endorsers) than they were to…

It’s almost as if having access to guns measurably increases how seriously the government has to take your movement (even a peaceful one) - kind of like the 2nd Amendment was intended for. I think the BPP was the only left-wing group to figure this out. Reagan and the NRA were quick to back the Mulford Act banning…

So, as you said, you signed a contract stating that what you would be paid was enough for you to take - and perform - the job. I am sympathetic to your plight, the best teacher I had in undergrad was an adjunct and the pay situation is deplorable. But given your education, I am sure you were aware of that going in. So…

I guess we should hope that for us all. My field has a Rules of Professional Conduct. I’m encouraged, but not required, to do some amount of pro bono work. The clients aren’t saints or paying, but I couldn’t imagine providing inadequate services over compensatory issues. (Personally, that’s not an issue because I…

I love the line, “we didn’t have a lot of money but my dad with the largest dealer in the state.”

Congrats! I ran the full there too. So thankful that the rain held off as long as it did. My favorite signs were in the Canada portion with entries like “Is it November 9th already?”
