I don’t think that Trump will ever believe that he is unpopular. There is a story about an employee of NBC who sold ads for the Apprentice. The ratings for the show went from #1 for the season 1 finale to something like 75th ranked show for the duration of season 2. Despite the ratings Trump would routinely call the…

First let me say I agree with you totally. You’re absolutely right people have been suffering economically for two decades and they voted Trump because they felt that Democrats were ignoring these issues, when it was really Republicans obstructing Obama from implementing any policies which may offer any help.

I think we will eventually be able to put it all back together except in one scenario. If some sort of abnormal event were to occur, a 9/11 or Pearl Harbor scale event, it will change the whole paradigm. We’ll have severe roll backs of civil liberties and I don’t know how we would ever come back from that.

The problem with these voters is their house got foreclosed on in 2008.

If it’s the same question I’m thinking of, I totally agree it should have been followed up on. There are questions over whether the future President of the United States is colluding and possibly being blackmailed by a foreign government and follow up questions were about fucking Obamacare and tax policy? What the…

Not just former campaign operatives; at one point NBC employed the spawn of John McCain, George W Bush and the Clintons. I’m sure it is due to their preeminent qualifications in broadcasting. (Chelsea Clinton and Jenna Bush are both terrible on TV; I haven’t seen Meghan McCain on TV, so I can’t judge her)

I think that as long as Jagr is playing he needs to be declared an emeritus all-star. The guy is about to be forty-fucking-five and is second on his team in points!

Could you imagine how big this story would be if there was a hard stud back there?

It seems like basic physics, the same forces the were applied to an un-braced knee are applied elsewhere on the braced leg, my guess would have been a higher prevalence of ankles, hip or bone injuries. The leg is not designed to be planted and bend laterally.

I was making a joke. I agree with you 110%, my brother formerly taught at Los Angeles Unified School District and currently teaches high school science in the South Bronx. We talk often about the state of education and it’s challenges. You’re absolutely correct about poverty. I was lucky and grew up middle class in…

It’s not necessarily irresponsible spending, though we can all cite numerous examples of that. The majority of government spending goes to three things: Social Security, Medicare, and the military. They account for $2.8 trillion of our $3.8 trillion dollar budget. Thats 73% of the Federal Governments budget. All the…

They should all pack up and move to Libya or Somalia, they will have very little to worry about the government interfering in their lives. Pure capitalism

I don’t necessarily disagree with you that the state of education in this country is in bad shape, but if you look at the voting demographics, it’s old people who can’t seem to locate the equilibrium point of the Laffer curve.

My favorite part of every story I’ve seen about this is the picture of the hole. I hope rather than patch it, the grounds keeper whose job it is to make the repair cuts the whole square out, frames it, and puts it up on Ebay. This could be like Luis Gonzalezs gum for a new generation.

Same! As if taking a trip 6 days prior has any effect on your performance today. After the game I was really primed for some ODB meltdown stories and was not disappointed when the stories came out about him tearfully punching/headbutting walls and getting into confrontations with members of the Green Bay grounds crew.…

That would be FUCKING classic! I’d love the CIA to tweet back:

Yes. I’m a sheep nom-nom-nom, keep feeding me mainstream media. I’m fat, drunk and stupid nom-nom-nom. Excuse me Wolf Blitzers on, I need to put the computer down so I can use the come-along to get my rotund middle American ass out of my over sized lazy bot and find the remote.

It was alternately scary/amusing to me this morning how tweets by both Trump and Wikileaks hit the same notes:

Not to mention the incredible vulnerability of air craft carriers

Don’t forget that Rick Perry’s commitment to black people is so deep he named his families hunting camp in honor of them:
