The thing that people forget is that people were similarly apoplectic about things that George W. Bush did when he was president. The only difference is that social media wasn’t nearly as prevalent back then, which made organizing harder for the “resistance.” (which is a ridiculous name for ridiculous people, but…

I never understood the heat that Ireland took for that question. If I recall correctly, he first asked Dez what his father did for a living, to which Dez replied that he was a pimp. When asked what his mom did, Dez replied that she worked for his dad. Isn’t the common sense implication that she was a prostitute? Why…

Shouldn’t the number one job of every union be to keep their people working? That doesn’t mean capitulating on everything, or even most things, but in the end it’s better for labor and business if everyone is working.

It seems accurate in a common sense sort of way. Drilling hasn’t stopped in Canada just because the Keystone XL pipeline permits were denied. They’re just piping it through other pipelines to sell in other places.

Have you not watched the news? Hillary Clinton lost, which means she and Bill won’t be able to rent out the Lincoln Bedroom for campaign contributions like the last time around.

Except for the fact that there was a special prosecutor that didn’t answer to anyone in the administration. And Richard Armitage actually worked for Colin Powell, not Dick Cheney. Considering that Armitage was, self-admittedly, the first person to leak Plame’s name, wouldn’t it make more sense that the leak originated…

Richard Armitage admitted to the special prosecutor and wasn’t charged. Scooter Libby was convicted of lying when he said that he didn’t “out” her, which means that the special prosecutor had enough evidence to prove that he did indeed do it. Neither of them were charged with a crime for outing her.

Yes, Scooter Libby was convicted of lying. Strangely, no one was ever punished for “leaking” Valerie Plame’s name. Not Libby, and not Richard Armitage, who admitted to being the original person to leak her name to the press (Robert Novak). It’s almost as if it wasn’t a crime at all, and the whole controversy was a big…

My understanding is that a warming drawer usually has a protruding handle, whereas a storage drawer has an inset handle (I’m sure there’s a term for it, but I can’t think of it off the top of my head)

Any layman’s opinion on this case should come down to whether or not they believe the government should continue to apply blanket restrictions on trademark registration that don’t allow for nuance or determination of intent, or if they believe the government can successfully navigate those murky waters on a…

Guns are the great equalizer. They allow a 100 pound woman to defend herself against someone the size of, say, Dwayne Johnson. To deny women the right to carry a gun puts them at a distinct disadvantage against a man of superior size and strength. Putting women at a disadvantage is misogynistic. Therefore your belief…

If it makes you feel better to think that this shooting was committed by a “gun person,” have at it. But I think we all know that it was most likely a gang banger who was trying to crash the party.

All joking aside, it’s amazing that this has never actually gone to court. You clearly have two separate systems for similarly situated athletes based solely on their nationality.

I don’t think it’s necessarily that people have a problem with it. It’s my understanding that it could be a Title IX violation.

I have no problem with athletes “agitating for change.” But sitting or kneeling for the national anthem doesn’t actually accomplish anything, and never will. Unless you count the decline in NFL ratings this year, which Kaepernick and company have accomplished quite well.

I guess you could look at it that way. Maybe it’s just a function of the fact that Frey fell off the map after leaving the Washington Post, but I feel like her “life of the party” phase is a lot more prominent in the article than her “broken party girl” phase. No one wants to speak ill of the dead, but it’s treated…

“I can drink everybody under the table,” Frey announced to me and Vinnie and anybody else in the room in a voice as big as her personality.
