Everything up to Garland, was more or less fair play and had been done before.

Okay, so let’s say they waited for the next nominee because it was worth it. They filibuster the really bad guy and what, McConnell just says “you’re right, he’s not a good nominee.” No, they filibuster, McConnell pulls the nuclear option, and we’re right here. It wasn’t a real choice, it was just a matter of time.

That’s idiotic. Both parties are not equally to blame. Democrats had few good options. Reid and his team agonized for literally years avoiding this...how are they “equally” at fault? I am so tired of this false equivalency bullshit that helps scumbags like McConnell and exacerbates this shitty situation.

Nope, there only one party that refused to give Merrick Garland a hearing. Only one party that set the record for Filibusters. Only one party that flat out refuses to work with the other side, and it’s not the Democrats...

Nobody thinks that the ad is meant to reflect Nivea’s dreams of a white supremacist utopia. But the idea of white representing purity, contrasted to black representing corruption and evil, absolutely has racist roots. “White is purity” echoes that sentiment. Even though I’m sure Nivea’s ad was not intended as a racial…

When you put her next to her father or her brother, she comes across as a genius because she can form complete sentences and use appropriate inflections on words. The Trumps are masters of low expectations, and the past year or so has lowered the standard to subterranean levels.

I am SO ANGRY I will name a park full of animals for ALL OF THE THINGS THAT I HATE.

Absurd. “Uh, well, random Internet commenters on Gawker are acting like assholes, so I’m going to vote for a guy I think may be a racist rapist just to spite them.”

Now you’re conflating moderates with undecideds. The two are absolutely not the same thing.

Modern Moderates are either ignorant or liars. And anybody that’s “offended” by boisterous protest to fascism isn’t a fucking moderate, they’re an enabler.

I never understood this line of reasoning. Party lines and values are generally consistent year after year, and different enough from each other that if you know what you believe in at all it should be pretty obvious who you’ll vote for. Undecided seems to mean that you don’t know what you stand for, you’re too dumb…

And that’s why “moderates” are absolutely as culpable for the current state of affairs as the left and the right. They’re so desperate to maintain their illusion that “both sides are the same” that they see the right’s fears that Obama would do things that they completely made up themselves and the left’s fears that…

It’s an important vague, non-specific, non-controversial, non-political message in order to convey whatever you want, starring a girl who is is both stunningly beautiful and completely generic, and believes totally in the vague, non-specific, non-controversial, non-political message that peace and Pepsi start with the…

Now now...

I don’t think he physically or sexually abused her tbh. He’s proud of her because she’s “fuckable” and in his mind that’s the highest achievement any woman can attain.

Clinton’s campaign received word of a debate question in one of the primary debates, not one of the debates with Trump. It was the debate in Flint. What highly sensitive information did Donna Brazile leak to the Clinton camp about the debate, in Flint?

Side note - the best explanation I heard about the sniffles is that it was a stress response. He’s not use to being challenged like that. It triggers his fight or flight reflex. His muscles are all tightening so he feels like he needs to take gasping breaths to get enough air. That’s also why he couldn’t stand…

He can’t function without an opponent. He does not possess the character or constitution to work on behalf of anyone—only against things for his personal gain. That’s why he’s so adrift, and why he’s inventing enemies even when doing so only hurts him.

Oh my god! Hermoine. She’s absolutely Hermoine and that’s why she lost.

The endgame is potentially blocking a nominee with the same damaging, terrible reactionary judicial philosophy as Antonin Scalia after Republicans, inspired by nothing more than naked partisanship, refused to even consider Merrick Garland following Scalia’s death. If they want to avoid a filibuster, Trump could put…
