"Speed King" by Deep Purple.

Sanders is praising Trump for taking a position on global trade to the LEFT of the Democratic establishment. Why are you complaining about that? If Democrats go against Sanders and take the right-wing position(i.e. pro-free trade), they'll lose the Rust Belt states and the unions to Republicans forever. You want…

Sure, but the point is Democrats put themselves in a position to get outflanked to their left on trade when they picked Hillary over Bernie. The Democratic Party's "brain trust" apparently didn't see this as a problem. Fucking brilliant thinking there.

Hillary Clinton being a pathetic candidate had something to do with it. That's not 20/20 hindsight either. Until the Republicans nominated Trump, I fully expected Hillary not just to lose, but to get shellacked. But I thought even Hillary couldn't lose against a clown like Trump. I overestimated her. She might…

I've never seen a better fusion of Jane Wiedlin and Lena Dunham than this woman. Never seen anybody else attempt it either.

As much as I like seeing money raised for the ACLU, I can't help rolling my eyes after watching liberal Democrats spend 8 years being indifferent or outright hostile to the ACLU's efforts to combat Obama's cosmically awful civil liberties record. NOW the hipster douches are rushing to rebuild their street cred. …

Cirith Ungol - War Eternal. Quite an accomplishment to make liberals comfortable with Endless War as the new normal.

I wasn't criticizing. Metal is what is best in Western culture.

Never seen this show, but it sounds metal af, almost like it was designed to pander to metalheads.

Lemmy started all this shit though. He was Patient Zero.

Well, yeah. If you consider 2016 as a year of unexpected celebrity deaths, Lemmy is the logical starting point even though he was four days early.

I recall it being Lemmy who initiated the cycle of death. He passed on December 28th, 2015. Just half a week before 2016.

Heat Miser went yesterday. R.I.P. George S. Irving.

I am strong with the troll side of the force.

She didn't live long but she prospered.

RIP George Michael.

This idea that Republicans opposed Obama on everything is one of the great myths of his presidency. Republicans were Obama's best buddies when he wanted more defense spending, more bank bailouts, renewing the Patriot Act, dropping more bombs in the Middle East, blocking transparency initiatives, blocking accounting…

Lincoln, LOL. Obama doesn't have an ounce of Lincoln in him. Obama is a mediocrity who squandered an historic opportunity to make real change. Those of us who are immune to the charm of his oratorical bromides have always been frustrated that so many left-leaning voters can't see Obama for what he is.

If Carrie Fisher were here, she'd say this:

Yet another example of voters rejecting the status quo.
