Pro-choice advocates can help move the dialogue around abortion in a different direction. Maybe go up to pro-lifers and say, “Oh, you want to help stop abortions? Me too, and I’d love your help on this. Let’s implement comprehensive sex education in schools, increase the availability and affordability of birth control…

I going to very blunt and honest right now: I sincerely wish it was Palin who was just elected instead of Trump. At least she has some experience.

Elizabeth Warren also had a pretty testy exchange with Price over his conflicts of interest in which she had to be gaveled out for going over time.

This is not to say that all political figures of the period are to be outright reviled or hated for their inaction, but that we must understand the context and climate in which they lived.

We need to build a wall to keep all the illegal bears out. The Berenstain Bears will all be forced to wear “sheriff’s stars.”

Hahaha, silly foreigners and their “compassion” and “moral compasses.” Trump is going to build a wall to keep you guys out and create a paradise where you can rape anyone without consequence!

Doesn’t matter. He knowingly handled American classified information. That’s an American law that can be broken no matter where you are or who you are. The law was specifically created with the intention of it being used to prosecute foreigners.

Not we, but local officials could and then they’d extradite him. That’s what I meant, I was just too lazy to write it all out.

Was Johnson a “lukewarm liberal,” though? Maybe he was before he was president, but once he was sworn in he actually advocated and signed laws that moved us in the right direction.

because neither of those two figures mentioned believed that black people were equal to them in anyway

Yes and no. He very clearly violated the Espionage Act. However, there has never been a formal indictment of him. He’s pretty sure that if he ever leaves the Ecuadorian Embassy that he will be tried for that. A violation of the Espionage Act can be punished via the death penalty, though I doubt they would go that far.

I honestly wish it was Nixon being sworn in on Friday instead of Trump. At the very least, you never had to doubt his public service credentials or his commitment to the nation. Helo, with all of Trump’s business conflicts, Watergate looks so quaint.

Undoubtedly part of Rodgers’ public image is also him sitting through the draft as team after team inexplicably passed up on him when not a single one of them couldn’t have used an upgrade at quarterback.

I’ve always thought Kornheiser was perfectly fine. It’s Wilbon who’s the dickhead. Every once in a while he’ll be out and Dan LeBatard will sit in instead. This is great, because LeBatard is usually the shit.

I feel it’s appropriate to highlight one of the responses to the Matt Calkins tweet that was cited in the article.

“Two of the best forms of assimilable protein are organic, free range chicken eggs and whey protein made from grass fed dairy cows.”

People “vilify” Lee precisely because other people choose to honor him. Yeah, sure, he seemed like a great guy or whatever. He fought for the side that lost, for the side that betrayed my country, for the side whose entire existence was based on defending the enslavement of human beings. My point is not that he wasn’t…

They’re not releasing plates because the transition team wants to start a new tradition by exchanging everyone’s windshield wiper fluid with Russian urine.

For two stuffy-ass sports franchises, this was a legitimately funny exchange.

Yes, Lee is generally regarded as a brilliant strategist who was a gentleman who was honest and loved Virginia more than anything else, and so on and so on. We can stand back and admire an individual’s skill or their generous reputation without honoring them.
