A lot of dumb people like to cite Sowell because he is a black conservative with a Harvard degree so he must be an expert, right? And for years, he used that intellectual cache to blatantly lie and misrepresent facts.

Probably because he’s a conservative hack dressed in libertarian clothes trying to get black people to buy into supply-side economics, racial pseudoscience and the merit myth.

Democrats (and other liberals) need to commit to vote for the Democratic nominee even if it is not someone they wanted or if the nominee is not progressive enough or is too progressive. And in particular, Bernie supporters cannot stay home/vote 3rd party if (as I assume) he is not the nominee. If Republicans can rally…

If you’re a white woman, you can stay, but only if you turn over complete ownership of your body to white men. 

Also, if you are anything but English speaking Anglo protestant, they will extend it to you after they’re done kicking out persons of color.

Seriously. I actually think the way she worded that statement is fairly crafty.

Sometimes the writers here come off as living in a bubble. 

I don’t need her to be a leftist dream, I need her to be better than Mitch. It’s a pretty low bar. Campaigning in a way that talks to voters she needs to win over, conservatives who have probably voted red their whole lives (or voted southern democrat when that was still a thing) is smart. 

You know, the Navy has one simple request. And that is to have ships with frigate laser beams attached to their decks.

I made the mistake of going to the comments under a tweet about her White House visit comments. It was predictably bad, but I did discover a good term for all the flag-humpers and anthem worshipers...

Who are they to call anyone disrespectful...

Harris, Warren and Castro as the top 3

The top five is exactly the same as this White Guy’s power rankings. I’m very much not a fan of some of the things Harris did as AG, and ideologically, I think I’m closer to Warren, but Harris is the smartest person in the field, and she’d be the president most able to get shit done around the obstructionist nihilists…

Oh my. this last tweet. This is not even a burn anymore. this is a complete nuclear annihilation.

Ya Gotta Bereave!

a purple-haired lesbian surrounded by her teammates with giant “DARE TO SHINE” signs around her is like, an incredible image as we reach the end of Pride Month, it makes my gay little heart so fucking happy.
