This is the level of discourse I’d expect from you, Jordan. If it lasted a second or an hour - the critical part of the photo is a former leader of the free world making that expression of affection towards another human being, and a woman of strength accepting it.

What a non-story. GWB is a fucking dolt, but it’s been clear for some time that the Bushes and Obamas have genuine respect and affection for each other. Personally I find it encouraging that powerful people on clearly opposite sides of the aisle can still have this sort of relationship. Maybe someday we’ll actually be…

Lessee, talk a lot, act all flamboyant and arrogant, convince the world you’re a winner even though you never win jack shit, thoughtless bravado backed up with mediocre results...where have I heard that before?

Wow! It looks like Alissa Walker’s wet dream!

Time for this asshole to go to jail.

Wow, tell us more

OK - I get that, but hasnt NYC seen serious snow the past few years? I’d just think they’d amp up the resources and try and be more prepared than this. I see people saying “people have cars on the road, abandoned, etc. you’re a fucking asshole” - so, my thought is, didnt everyone know this storm was coming? Where was…

Ya know, before you start tossing stones, figure out the background. I live somewhere that gets snowstorms weekly and can easily see 6 feet in a day. I had an honest question about the resources the city has since I dont know. Chill the fuck out.

Well... yes. I’ve lived over 7 years in Montreal. This is common. My FIRST DAY in montreal, in december 2007, 30 inches of snow fell in 6 or 7 hours. and similar snowstorms occured every year... Sometimes twice a year. I don’t recall the city being blocked. On average it snows 3 to 4 times more in Montreal than NYC…

Montreal gets 4100km of road, 6550km of sidewalk and 200km of freeway. Montreal, on average, also gets a worse weather than NYC... Roads don’t shut down and you don’t see article about “snow-calypse” EVERY SINGLE YEAR.

Man, you’re a real classy guy here.

I see your screen name seems appropriate. How about Montreal just 500km up north?? The streets are built the same way and it’s no big deal either. NYC gets a shit load of snow every single year, and every single year it’s the same BS. “Oh my god, let’s close down all the road, it’s snowing, we have absolutly no way to…

Why is it a mark of pride to have shitty weather conditions? How about, say, Syria? Are they allowed to brag about how they can't go outside without being barrel bombed? Is that a good thing?

Ha! As a Washingtonian sick of hearing about how we handle snow, I see that New Yorkers can dish it out but judging from the responses here, they can’t take it.

Another thin-skinned NY whiner.

Love all this excuse making. Who’s laughing now you sons of bitches?!

Meanwhile in Helsinki. Seriously you guys, it’s just a matter of being prepared and allocating resources accordingly. The whole west coast of the USA could be running smoothly as butter right now, but it seems like you just can’t be arsed to do anything about it.

Ok, seriously, how does NYC not have decent snow removal resources yet?

Look, I’m all on the side of the cop getting fired and losing his pension, as there is no excuse for his behavior. There was no threat to his safety, the biker had his arms slightly up, there’s no reason to kick him in the chest. Of course, there’s no reason for the biker to have been speeding either, so he should be…
