And goddammit get Chris Matthews off the air. He’s been useless for years. He talks over anyone who has a decent point to make but just lets windbags like her talk at will. I’m done with NBC and their properties. I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I’ve switched to CNN for cable news and CBS for broadcast news. …

And this is why it was right for her to stay caucus leader. Because the other guy who ran against her to run the House Democratic Caucus was some Rep from Ohio who wants to cater to the “white working class” which means never saying anything that might dare to challenge those precious white working class people to…

You fucked up NBC. Megyn Kelly is an evening political news hack, and she’s not gonna be able to pull off being NBC’s Kelly Ripa and NBC/MSNBC can poach Fox News hosts and whitewash all they want, they’re not gonna be able to attract any Fox News viewers to come over to them because fox viewers don’t view anyone but…

She’s gonna be president in 25ish years. Calling it now.

Yeah, I immediately thought, god please let him be okay tomorrow. I’m sure his wife winced watching him check someone, even if it was just Bieber.

Not long ago Pronger couldn’t even skate let alone play without having severe headaches and post concussion symptoms. He talked about how difficult it was not even being able to play hockey with his kids. It’s a really great sight to see him playing again even if only in a meaningless celebrity game.

Fareed Zakaria wrote an article about this, and in a subsequent interview he talked about how a lot of democracies survived just because of the luck of a good example early on that created the norms and conventions that the people of those countries would learn to expect. Modern South Africa, for instance, should…

Straight Bear Fridays...sounds like...something else.

NJ legislators are also planning to legalize it for recreational use next year. All of the likely democrat governor candidates have indicated that they would sign such a bill, and Chris Christie has ruined republicans in NJ for another decade, like the last republican governor (Christie Whitman) so the democrats are…

South Park’s Mr Garrison/Trump composite is really more and more accurate every day.

Maybe it’s just that it would be suspicious if he only told the ambassador to Russia to leave right away, so he made it apply to all Ambassadors just to avoid being too obvious.

If the game is stopped due to inclement weather before 2 full periods of hockey are played, then it’s not enough to count as a full game and they will try to play it again tomorrow. If two full periods have been played and they have to stop the game due to inclement weather then whoever is leading will be the winner.…

Why not both? “Such a shame of US Team to beat up Russians. Sad! They only did it because of the optimism I created and the Russians didn’t play hard because they like me so much they didn’t want to rain on my parade. Speaking of which, when is my parade? Those nerds at NASA better not make it rain that day!”

Edit:…

Any such strategizing must come with a strong dose of sobriety. Political scientists have discovered that action, or perceived action, is the biggest predictor of approval and strong political performance. Take for example the perception of President Obama and Chris Christie working together in response to Hurricane…

It seems like a lot of out-of-work has-beens end up being conservative because they want the royalty checks from their one good thing to be taxed at the lowest level. Like how former SNL players end up being conservative now that the only time they make any money is when somebody makes a commercial referencing an old…

I read the end of that one paragraph as

Religions are also tax exempt. I think the NFL doesn’t give a shit about charities, but as long as it’s a 501(c)(3) organization they’re okay with it, because then they can put a monetary value on the publicity that the shoes supposedly created and then write that off of the taxes the teams are supposed to pay.

Yeah, people seem to skip over the part of the constitution where it says the presidency goes to the one with a majority of electoral votes. If they envisioned the vote regularly being split 3 or more ways they would have probably made it so that it required a plurality, not a majority of electoral votes.

If he does return, it should be much later, like the final season as part of the unveiling of the show’s endgame.

I agree that William = MiB was by no means the biggest twist. I mean, it’s great work to make Liam McPoyle into someone who could be believed to be a young Ed Harris. But in my opinion, the biggest, best twist was the one nobody was looking for; that Ford was actually the one trying to finish what Arnold started,…
