Counterpoint: that person is a hero and their birthday should be a national holiday.

Lesley Stahl on U.S. sanctions against Iraq: We have heard that a half million children have died. I mean, that’s more children than died in Hiroshima. And, you know, is the price worth it?

I think the real question, which has yet to be answered, is why is a man whose nickname is pronounced "Shug" spelled "Suge?" What kind of linguistic chicanery is he up to?

Eh, if your example of reasoned, factual analysis is Christopher Hitchens, I don't know that you have much room to call out Moore

The problem (and I agree Roger & Me is a straight-up classic) is that his schtick only works as an outsider. What made R&M so fucking great was how ballsy it was that some nobody would try to just waltz into Roger Smith's office and have a sit-down with him, perfectly illustrating how literally out of touch America's…

I, too, would like to explain who David Farenthold is and his relationship to Trump.

“Humans find much humor in the penis — It’s funny to say they are small; it’s funny to say they are big. I’ve been at parties where humans have held bottles, pencils, thermoses in front of themselves, and called out ‘Hey look at me, I’m Mr. So-And-So Dick! I’ve got such-and-such for a penis.’ I never saw it fail to…

"If you're preschool, you're fucked…by me in 10 years"

" she has very deliberately tried to court anti-vax votes which is not something I'd want from someone with input into health policy."

But why aren't you made at the hundreds of thousands of registered Democrats in Florida who flipped to Bush? Why is it always blamed on Nader supporters when far, far more registered Democrats voted for Bush than voted for Nader? Why is it always the Left's fault when the clear evidence says they were not the ones who…

You mean Dr. Jill Stein (MD, Harvard 1979) who has repeatedly gone on record stating she is not an anti-vaxxer? Like this tweet, where she writes "As a medical doctor, of course I support vaccines." That Jill Stein?

But how does that square with all the scaremongering about Trump? Any time Obama's many failures are mentioned, we get a lecture about how the president can rarely accomplish what they want and how they're lucky to see a tiny fraction of what they propose become reality. But then when we're talking about Trump,…

Bingo. It never ceases to amaze me that any criticism of Hilary is met with "You naive child! No candidate is perfect. Get your head out of the clouds!" while any minor defect with Stein prompts the same people to clutch their monocles and gasp that you're willing to support a candidate who isn't perfect in every way.

As @avclub-27d416f9dafaf0d621bfe869561f88ba:disqus correctly points out, the rule has been modified in cases of clear recovery, but as you also correctly point out, the rules if applied completely inconsistently. The theory behind the new rule is to make sure teams aren't completely screwed over in obvious cases. But…

If the whistle was blown, you can't review the play, it's dead.

Hey, did ya get a load of the nerd?

With great snark comes great responsibility

In the comics, she initially debuted in the late ’60s as a regular Air Force pilot named Carol Danvers. In the ‘70s, her DNA was fused with that of the alien superhero Mar-Vell, better known as the first Captain Marvel. This gave her various superpowers, and Danvers became Ms. Marvel. She kept the name for a bit even…
