A compilation of this type of shenanigan:

Why not push for a dumber populace? Consolidated, guaranteed power in Washington only comes with a complacent, uninformed public. The greatest, truest democratic power is activism of an organized and educated groups of people in large numbers.

Literacy can’t melt steel beams!

What’s the leftist equivalent of Infowars?

They want a dumb non-white populace. You see, if the black people can’t even read, then the white people hardly need worry about college. It’s very tidy and cost effective if you think about.

Do not get me started. This election is starting to remind me of a very creepy science fiction story I read when I was in my twenties about a man who seemed to have amazing personal luck. Then one day, he is killed instantly in a train crash, and all his friends and acquaintances are reflecting on how his amazing…

Because the majority of politicians in national office are honest to goodness criminals?

Exactly! Best not to think about all the other presidents who didn’t obsessively record themselves & leave a record of all the sausagemaking. The documentary even talks about whether it’s a good/bad thing that self-taping and paper trails both dropped off drastically after Watergate; true it might be better for us not…

Strong stuff, indeed! Godspeed on those.

The smart move for him here (knowing that he is not smart) would be to portray it as a “didn’t you want to be sure, I pushed him to clarify and no one else did that”. Sure it is the “just asking questions” bullshit, but it at least gives him a bit of an out. He could simply drop it (and as he makes clear, only he…

I also cannot stand the word “pivot” anymore. So overused.

His problem isn’t just with the African American vote. He’s also tanking with the larger “white people who think African Americans are human” vote.

I have the flu and hopefully tomorrow I will feel better. Your sage comment deserves more than whatever I have in me at this moment.

You know, the single biggest boost to Donald Trump’s campaign would come in the form of an apology. An apology about anything. To the African American community, to the Latino community, to the Muslim community, to women, to the gay community, to the media. The list goes on and on. Will it win over millions who…

Trump has backed himself into a big corner this time. He’s a fucking racist for constantly talking about Obama’s birth place, and he’s a fucking racist for not talking about it. What we’ve learned from this latest Trump campaign update, ladies and gentlemen, is that Trump is a fucking racist no matter what. So,…

I read your comment as sarcasm in opposition to Highly Selassie’s. Not as sarcasm in a agreement with it.
Sometimes the internet is hard.

He was a homerun hitting shortstop, best in the bizz

Oh they get over that whole logical inconsistency thing with “faith” or in other words cognitive dissonance.

Collective short-term and long-term memory loss, revisionist history, the myth of American exceptionalism... it goes on and on.

Snort (hours in day) - I am well aware. Like many, my career of over four decades was tanked by rampant greed and unfettered and unwise boom growth. One of the companies is over 20 billion in debt. No possible chance of ROI. Ever. So they keep firing the very human resources that provide the product and devaluing what…
