Oh, I am familiar with the history. (As the idiots in the armed forces who chose to invade Afghanistan should have been.) The fact that other, more established empires have been brought to their knees in Afghanistan doesn’t make me think any better of the US for being the latest in a string of willful fools.

I’m so ready to see whoever runs against the president in the next election walk away with it. This will be our first 1 term prez since Bush Sr.

I am a male with some boobs and I’ve had to deal with it all my life. There’s been so many times where I have dealt with some other dude grabbing them and I’m not sure what the reaction should have been. I haven’t really experienced it since college, since I think there’s a certain maturity after the age of 25.

yep, marrying a man 19 years ago (still with him, too) finally confirmed to folks then that i was both female and heterosexual (since sadly same sex marriage was illegal back then). not easy any time not conforming perfectly to a gender stereotype, but i guess it’s not easy any time to live for anybody. and that…

The left are the ones protesting. I’m not sure why you’re conflating Hillary Clinton of all people with the left.

Where are you getting that info? There was no proof that was the case and in fact... Manning’s leaks led to zero deaths by enemy forces.

No. It has nothing to do with safety. It’s an infraction concerning conduct that interferes with discipline and orderliness. She was being punished, not treated, observed, or protected. And it’s fucking barbarous.

Yes, the well known and totally successful ‘stabilisation’ of Afghan. Also I’d like a citation on the lives lost. Only lives I can tell who were lost were those civilians mowed down by the biggest terrorists on the planet. The US army.

Such a terrible shame to lock up and terrorize a woman who uncovered war crimes and changed the course of history on the United States’ illegal war in Iraq.

I like how bigots have moved to calling it narcissistic to protest against institutionalized racism.

If Britain and the US took these refugees, this story wouldn't exist.

She used the “putting Trump in the White House” shaming of third party voters. That is disgusting. Samantha is smarter than that and knows better. The Democratic Party does not stand for my ideals. I will not support them for President. I will vote down-ticket for them, but I will either abstain from the President…

Everyone here likes to make fun of Breitbart for being an echo chamber, but it’s really the same at Jezebel.

Yes, because you’re an idiot.

What in the world does “I am a foremost civil rights activist” mean?

We also have the freedom to kneel if we want to when we hear the anthem. Or turn our backs. Or dance a jig. Those people died for her freedom to do that too.

The first thing civil rights activists don't do is compare atrocities among the oppressed.

you know what makes a story about an orphan better? A Sexy Orphan, mmmmmm

I remain 100% against the death penalty.

I never did before, but I hate Debra Messing now. Why couldn’t she visit poor whites in Tennesee? They have sex workers there too. They probably have their own condom dance as well!
