WOT's very own Cinnamon Owl (Deborah) has been keeping an eye on that issue - she'll probably have an answer when she reads this thread.

Up-voted for "latter-day Bork."

Based on my guy friends (anecdata! It's what's for dinner!) I can believe there's a certain amount of bragging and high-fiveing going on. But there's a big difference between "I got with this girl and rocked her world" and "She wasn't interested but I kissed and groped her anyway."

"The majority of people have cheated on a significant other."

You're that guy who wants the Gen-Xers to have sympathy for your Millennial cohort, right? Wants us not to notice that the whining about how hard you have it ignores, well, most of the history of mankind?

But you can imagine him pissing himself seeing Bunk Moreland come down the field.

There's been an interesting reaction on the left, pointing out that it takes Trump disrespecting (presumably) white women to get the GOP hierarchy outraged. He's free to insult people of colour as much as he wants, but stay away from the white women!

If you can get me a sack, I can provide my own doorknobs.

I'd say he's the Dennis Miller of the AVC. Someone who is ostensibly a comedian but really rarely funny.

No, no problem with those.

Ooh, how was that? Someone else mentioned it around here and I was wild with envy for about 15 minutes and then forgot about it.

Isms in my opinion are not good.

Parliamentary systems only work that way if you combine them with proportional representation. If you have a first-past-the-post system, like we do in Canada, you frequently wind up with a majority party that actually received a minority of the popular vote.

Actually, the story is about a fan video using the White Stripes' music, which is a copyright violation. I imagine there's no lawsuit pending because people who have time to make fan videos for YouTube have no money.

Just not posting here, evidently.

Someone needs to tell him the voices in his head don't count as "millions."

True, but a) Clinton's not remotely the only politician Goldman's paid for speaking, and b) Trump would absolutely take Goldman money if they had any interest in offering it.

Denounce, I hope you mean.

I haven't heard the tape, but from reading the quote it seemed like he was trying to compliment his audience on being tough. There's just an unfortunate corollary to be drawn about the people not in his audience is all.

I wish depression affected my memory that way. I can still remember shitty things I did at, like, age 8 and they'll come and smack me in the face if I'm in a really bad slump. Obviously I no longer remember every detail or anything, but that doesn't stop the garbage feeling.
