The refs can’t decide a winner unless the game is crazy close, and this was never that. Ref fixing in the NBA revolves around the over/under and the point spread. Mostly they’re just bad at a job human’s can’t ever really be good at in real time.

I mean, Green earned that suspension, and it came about 5 games later than it should have. There’s no conspiracy there, the guy is a fucking habitual nut hunter. He did that to himself.

How are you? I’m thinking of you and everyone else in our community who has to be a journalist today when maybe they just want to grieve.

Look, I get why she did it. The State Department sucks at cybersecurity and IT. There’s a general consensus that if you want to get shit done, private email is the way to do it. Colin Powell also exclusively used private email for State Department business. Any business-related email sent from the private server was

You know who else “flip flopped” on gay marriage? Millions of Americans, including my mom, who is finally the proud mother of two gay kids.

You really thought college educated? Man that’s way more credit than I was willing to give him. I envisioned more a of a neckbearded gamergater with a body pillow girlfriend.

A lot of people were enthusiastic about Hitler. What the fuck does enthusiasm matter?

Serious question, though. Do you in your heart truly believe that Hillary is less electable? I'm a registered Republican, and I'm voting for Hillary this November. I've voted on party lines for the entirety of my adult life, but Donald Trump does not get my vote. If it's Sanders vs. Trump, I don't know what I'd do.

You’re an idiot. And you expect people to be okay with it because you’ve got a reason. Sorry, your reason is fucking childish.

If Trump wins, I’m blaming this on Bernie supporters. It’s bad enough he’s losing because all he ever did was promise golden eggs to everyone, but that he’s continuing to cause a drift with democratic support is fucked up (pretty sure he would want all those Clinton voters later if he were ahead in the polls).
Unless

She doesn’t want it now because unlike Sanders (and, if we’re being honest, Stein), she realizes that you can’t just say something’s going to happen and make it happen. If she wins—and I think she will—she’ll be assuming office very likely with a hostile House AND Senate taking full aim at her for having the audacity

Green voters are, without exception, effete narcissists who will ultimately die of overweening pride.

This is a reasonable and correct take and has no place in Kinja.

I’ll go to the proverbial mat with anyone who thinks that Hillary is an acceptable choice over Bernie for anyone who considers themselves progressive. But it’s somewhat moot at this point in the primaries. And it’s something else entirely from arguing that Hillary is so awful that handing the election to Donald

How is someone with a very liberal senate voting record, more liberal than our current president’s when he was in the senate, practically a republican?

Yeah, she’s a real moderate Republican:

Can we please stop with the calling the 11th most liberal senator “pretty much a moderate republican?” I get it, it sounds good, but c’mon. Let’s not do this here.

If this series doesn’t win a Pulitzer then I’ve totally lost faith in the process.

Are you me? Because this is EXACTLY how I feel. Sanders appealed to me early on too, until it started to become clear that he doesn't have a great handle on how he's going to enact all these changes he's proposing, and his supporters are so ridiculously ill-informed. If I see another half-baked Sanders meme on my FB

All of the people claiming to be tired of this are really Cardinals fans trying to figure out a way to make you stop. Don’t fall for their false flag operation.
