I was fortunate to have only seen one poster do it twice in this thread, but for the future, you are not a “progressive” if you’re comparing the Russia investigation to Benghazi. Like, I don’t even know where to start on how stupid a talking point that is, just know that your ass will be shut-the-fuck-down for this…

Not to mention it was started by an Armenian Genocide denier.

In your not at all comparable hypothetical, is the white man over a foot shorter and 50 years older than the reporter?

Jocelyn Wildenstein territory is horribly mutilated face territory. Clear enough?

A someone far better than I once observed, Katy Perry dances like she’s playing a Kinect game. It’s the only description I can use now, because it is incredibly accurate.

I’m going to die from cringing.

My reactions when I watched those Katy Perry performances:

No fucking way that’s at normal speed. Who the fuck screams “oh shit” like they’re calling the cows home for supper? And then finishes it up with the classic Sinbad (90s comic, I’m old) move, “white people dance like...”

Actually, you’ve got it twisted, as does this article. Watch the actual episode. The conversation was about the election, not about the shootings.

I think its an overreaction to bills comment. Lets not forget that the news had just came out about crutcher it was fresh on the mind. I 100% agree with bill.

There are times when I look in the mirror and I have to admit that I am part of the problem. Regardless that some of those thing that were said make me feel bad or exploited... I think they it probably true.

It’s a dumb article that’s backhandedly trying to exonerate Cornel West from this idiotic argument and premise of “Hillary is just as bad as Trump (or worse) and would have been just as bad for black people”

Yeah. . . I am scratching my head about what this article is trying to accomplish.

Whoever Hillary picked as AG would have been better than Sessions. Small steps forward is better than giant leaps backward.
