Dwight Eisenhower made one gigantic mistake as president, and there can be argument about other blunders. He overthrew, at the bidding of what would become British Petroleum, a democratically elected prime minister in Iran, a slowly but surely modernizing nation that would have been a beacon to others in the region…

How dare Colin Kaepernick disrespect a song once sung by such heroes as Roseanne Barr and Enrico Pallazzo.

That’s the correct reaction. This is so far beyond funny. This is not a game any longer. This is not a publicity stunt or fodder for bad Jimmy Fallon jokes. You may not like Hillary, i’m not a fan myself. but you can’t say with conviction that four years of her will make the country worse than four years of this. Of…

Wish I had something more clever to say, but a simple “Man, fuck this guy” will have to suffice.

Man. Fuck this guy.

You seem to have forgotten that Lochte is drug tested for everything under the sun, and frequently. Even if he was going to try to risk it (and risk losing his medals if they hair tested him, since some drugs have long half lives and he might not be able to prove that he only took the drugs before the swimming events…

I'll agree that the TSA is hamstrung at almost every point, but to argue that it's not really necessary is ridiculous.

A billionaire did not take down gawker, a jury did.

AND, if you think it is sexist, then you are sexist.
