I disagree that a conservative voice is needed to consider budgets and the Constitutionality of laws. It’s true that conservatives wave around the idea of fiscal responsibility and use political rhetoric to claim the Constitution as their own, but they are demonstrably not better on budgets or the Constitution.

I wish I could have been apolitical at 18.

“If you’re not a liberal when you’re 20, you have no heart. If you’re not a conservative when you’re 40, you have no head.”

Starred because it deserves to be ungreyed. But I disagree that conservative policies are reasonable about money - see our military spending, the long term cost of cutting funding to health care, social safety nets, and education. It doesn't matter if you save a dime here if you lose a dollar later because your…

So, you were right wing because your boyfriend was? And it’s hard playing catch up as an 18 year old voter? Really?

So we are in agreement. I am confused now.

I mean it was a song about shitting on the heroine chic looks of models and stars of the time (read white) and his love of big asses.

It is. You know Ryan introduced her to Sir Mix one time and they danced around their mansion. And she wants people to know she knows this song, guys.

Let me refresh everyone’s memory - The damn song was about how white women and America’s beauty standards look down on black women’s beauty. Or did you for the that “Oh my God Becky, look at her butt” why does everyone forget this? Look up the lyrics in its entirety and the you’ll get it.

Do even know the whole song was about mocking white racism towards black women’s bodies?
