Igor. Please. His words are tremendous. The best. Everyone knows this. People are saying it, even.

That was LBJ? Seems like this was a founding principle of the Confederacy, if I remember correctly.

Could be. Not worth my time to read him up, especially if he’s that sort of douche. But hey, made for an interesting thread, and I think the good guys came out way on top. Right?

If I’m part of that both, all I’m saying is that I live and work someplace that is the deepest of blues, and that I rather enjoy it. That’s Cook County, Illinois. You can Google vote counts if you’d like.

Eh, I don’t know. He’s clearly a conservative, so I can’t imagine why he would be here other than to stir things up. But he’s not being too belligerent, and his talking points are pretty much hanging curves for the gang around here to crush out of the park. If he’s trying to hijack the conversation, he’s doing a…

So here’s the thing. I’m from a tiny midwestern town, solid Trump country. Since then, I’ve lived in a small town in the southwest, very red, and a working class metro in the Rust Belt that was also on the redder side of purple. I’ve traveled the country extensively for work (my territories have included Dixie and the…

THIIIIIIIIS!!!

Seriously. There are soooo many reasons to hate the NFL (CTE denial, rampant sexual assault scandals, treatment of players as faceless automatons, shameless military propaganda, Jon Gruden, etc.). These protests are frankly the most interesting thing to happen to the NFL in a while.

Not mine. My tech industry/upper middle class urban neighborhood bubble is airtight, I promise you. I encounter none of these fucks in my day-to-day, and I regret nothing.

Ask him! He’s pretty good about responding to commenters, actually.

And they should! Frankly, I think they should be taxed at an even higher rate!

I’m cool with that. I was just looking at current federal tax brackets. My guess is that someone making $400k a year is doing pretty well, and if they’re having a tough time making ends meet, they may want to take a look at their spending habits rather than their tax rate.

I think if you asked most, they would agree. Then again, most would probably be fine with modest tax increases on the middle class as long as it went toward education, health care, and other public services. But we all most certainly agree that massive tax cuts on the rich, coupled with even more massive cuts in…

Well then, fuck tax cuts for the rich. I mean, I thought that was pretty clear.

I would suggest that, if you think you are “(moderately) rich”, you are probably not the focus of HamNo’s ire, nor the target of the tax increases progressives propose. Even if you are being modest and you are actually in the top tax bracket (>$418k), you are extraordinarily well off and are in no danger of being…

Funny, I would have pegged him as a Cowboys fan.

Hahaha. Pretty sure Palm was referring to the mold-covered, Blue Steeling stick of string cheese who’s currently acting as VP, but I can understand your confusion, especially with the use of “pile”.

Andrew Johnson was a real mother, if I remember correctly.

Haha! No, found it downthread. Can’t take credit for it. If it were mine, it would have been mashed up with Yakety Sax. Dude, when I saw this play out last night, I laughed until I cried. Or cried until I laughed. Hard to tell.

Hahahahahaha. Ok. Here’s your boy.
