Great, but that’s not how it works. You can’t decide that you’re going to build your bases within someone else’s territorial waters—even if they are closer to your mainland than Wake Island is to the continental US. By that definition then Japan, concerned about its buffer, should be able to build a new island base in…
This is my burner. There are many like it, but this one is mine

Some clips he says “nu-klee-ur” and some he says “nu-kyoo-lur.” A lot of clips from the 70s and before show intelligent people saying “nu-kyoo-lur.” May have just been an acceptable pronunciation back then.
Uh, Wake and Midway aren’t within some other country’s territorial (or even disputed) waters. Do you really not see that as a hugely significant difference?
Yes, left alone. As long as left alone means “free to build military islands in the South China Sea 600 miles from Chinese territory but 50 miles from the Philippines.
I’ve lived in the future for many years now. Can confirm it hasn’t been that bad.
Keith was on the Rose Bowl telecast a few weeks ago. He wasn’t at his best, but he definitely still knows who he is and his history with college football.
Right, and I’m sure that the Corporate Republic of Orange County (population 3.5 million) wouldn’t secede from your California collective. Your New York component is likely going to be a few of the boroughs of NYC and some of the more liberal areas up to Albany and out on Long Island.
Of course Houston, Dallas and San Antonio are generally just as liberal as Austin. Look at the vote counts for Dallas, Harris and Bexar counties. Texas itself is going to be a blue state within the next 10 years.
Yes, Hogarth’s name is just crazy.
Are you suggesting that transporting on the road IS safer?
Look in the mirror. Comments like this are the exact reason that Trump is the President today. You are totally allowed to believe that your personal struggle, or the struggle of your group, is more meaningful than the greater political battle, but then you don’t also get to whine about President Trump. Tell the white…
I love me my Das keyboard. I’d put it in the “bought for quality and no regrets category” (which is not to say that you are wrong).
There’s no chance that Russia is “getting back” eastern Europe. They know that and so does everyone else. They may be able to solidify their influence in the -Stans, but the horse is out of the door in the Baltics and Eastern Europe.
China does all those same things and we openly crave their attention. Tell me about how it’s different.
Ex-fucking-actly,
Maybe, but what they are not underestimating is the number of visiting fans who will make the trip for a weekend in Vegas/football game. It doesn’t have to be that many to keep the stadium full.
Maybe (maybe) that’s true in August, but the other 11 months of the year, canned tomatoes are meaningfully better than any tomato that you’re going to buy in a store.
It will take you about 3 weekends to forget about football. I went virtually NFL-free this year (for the first time) and never missed it. You can watch one highlight show and get everything out of it that you would get from 7 hours in front of the RedZone.
Mark Davis probably has a pretty winnable case to sue them if they block him. The NFL doesn’t want to get sued. Roger boy can’t afford to show anymore of what’s behind the curtain.
