This is especially true for religious “charities”—they make tons of money off people’s gullibility.

I just assume anyone associated with Trump is a greeter in one of the seven circles of Hell, and has been anointed by Satan himself.
A slimy, rich, (self proclamed) conservative Christian lawyer “misappropriating” funds???? I’d be shocked if he didn’t.
I looked it up, they start at $35 and go on up to a couple hundred dollars. But so do most concerts and sports tickets. Why is it people only express contempt for the ‘privileged’ choices of people who go to the theater (to see a damn timely play btw) and classical music, but rarely express the same for someone going…
Is it flaunting literary privilege to say that anyone going into a production of 1984 without some idea of what they’re going to see deserves what they get?
I think the most hilarious thing about the “tapes/no tapes” thing is that 45 (inadvertently, obviously) pretty much made sure that no one questioned Comey’s testimony. Because Comey (and the general public) were under the impression that there were tapes of their conversation, Comey now had incentive not to lie about…
her current job was an “herbalist consultant,” whatever the hell that means.
Yeah we need more than 2 parties, but the Green Party is more flash than substance (in my experience). I believe that a third party needs to grow in local government until they have a strong base, then move on to state government and eventually federal. Grow the experience needed to be a contender.
I voted for Stein in 2010 because I live in a deep blue state and I liked her platform, but I realized during this last election cycle that as nice as her platform is, even in bizarro world where she manages to win the presidency, she could never ever ever enact any of it. She is an intelligent moron of the Ben Carson…
That’s not her point.
How about protections for workers and a focus on working-class peoples? WPA-style work programs and a focus on ensuring full employment because that’s the country we claim to be.
Sorry to flip out at you. But I am just so fucking tired of the ridiculous and nakedly self-serving “choice between two evils” trope peddled by self-described “left wing” candidates and voters.
Don’t be silly. The Green Party is a congregation of sanctimonious narcissists who have neither the time, interest or intellectual capacity to begin to try to understand the political system they’re pretending to want to be a part of. There’s always enough of those idiots to go around and when the ranks are low,…
She isn’t wrong that we deserve more than two lethal choices. She’s wrong to suggest that two lethal choices is what we were given. And I can’t even wrap my head around how foolish one would have to be to perceive of her (even if we make believe that she had a viable candidacy) as a better choice than Hillary Clinton.
The Greens have always been a joke, unfortunately, and the more of a spotlight they get the jokier they appear. America’s system is not set up for third parties to make much of an impact absent the total collapse of one of the major parties, which is why it makes much more sense to try and take over the Democrats from…
I don’t know how many times I wrote exactly that here during the campaign. The only time you even HEAR of the Green Party is during a presidential year. It’s hard to hit a home run in your first at-bat. The highest ranking Green Party official in the national is a county commissioner in California. Maybe they should…
I fucking wish, but no such luck. The far left ideologues in my circle of friends parrot these exact same statements. They’re pretty damned insufferable, and will never learn their lessons.
But what do I know? I’m apparently a neo-liberal war hawk for voting Hillary, and will never be a true scottsman.
So has she “destroyed” the Green Party? I mean, her continued smugness at all of this just HAS to ruin it for any subsequent candidate from that party that comes along, right? Not that they had a lot of gravitas to begin with but whatever gains they might have made had to be quashed by her. Right? Or if not, why not?
she says. “We deserve more than two lethal choices.”
