Thank god they’ve got excellent health care!

Somedays I wish that video games weren’t so outlandish. For example, why can’t Bioshock be real. Why can’t we have an asshole with to much time and to much money be able to build an underwater city where all these assholes who hate the government and hate everyone not like them can live in their own little underwater…

The reason to oppose the death penalty has nothing to do with the people who deserve it. It has to do with the people who don’t. We execute innocent people sometimes. It’s that fucking cut and dried. If you are for the death penalty, you are okay with the state occasionally getting it wrong and murdering innocent…

“Yokel” and “Reston Virginia” don’t really match up.

I’d like my opposition party to be more concerned about the lives of their constituents than their electoral chances, but that’s just me.

I don’t know, I feel like we keep saying that about various Republicans and it keeps not being true.

No. The problem was the support for Clinton in the first place. The rest of us told you people that she would not win if nominated, but all we got in return was a bunch of vitriolic spew, combined with an absolutely insufferable amount of arrogance about how she would win by a landslide.

I am constantly infuriated by the wistful, “Oh, I would take Dubya back; he wasn’t so bad, etc.” Wasn’t so bad? He presided over a completely evil administration which is responsible for spreading terrorism much more effectively than 9/11. He is a war criminal.

You’re right, I’m so glad we went with Clinton. If we’d gone with Bernie, we might have lost!

Out of the number of inside and outside factors behind HRC’s 2016 loss, is someone running against her in the primary really one of the biggest?

Hahhahah he wanted people to go to college and not be crushed by debt, sick burn

Heath Mello is kinda getting thrown under the bus here. I was glad to see you point out that his positions are very similar to Tim Kaine.

Can’t say I disagree with Sanders as it relates to Mello. If the left wants to win, then they actually have to turn an eye away from purity bullisht and toward...y’know...actually getting some points up on the fucking board.

And all the young audience members nodded their heads in agreement to his platitudes about outreach and understanding, and then they left the auditorium, graduated, moved to one of three cities, wasted their votes in 90% Democratic districts, and lost the House of Representatives and the presidency for another 50…

Pokahontas McGuigan retire bitch

I got a really good account of the history of Libya from my co-worker who was from Nigeria but was very familiar with the country. He HATED Obama for that action because he said our country took out a dictator who had his own issues, but who also brought that country from the bottom into a relatively good style of…

Obama has unequivocally called intervention in Libya the worst mistake of his presidency. It was Hillary’s call, not his, and the subsequent descent into anarchy and extremism there was the main reason why by the end of her term as Secretary of State he no longer relied on her counsel regarding the region.

Oh good. The States has never had issues removing crazy power mad leaders in the middle east through force before. This will be fun to learn this lesson for the first time.

It’s too simplistic of a case. Assad isn’t Hitler and the people that he is fighting against aren’t necessarily freedom fighters. Syria is way more complicated than that. Assad generally espouses secular and religiously-tolerant values as opposed to his opposition which is predominantly Islamist in nature. He is a…
