Oh the delightful, slobbering on themselves in a rage knots they were tying themselves in to defend this was a beautiful thing to behold. My favorite defense “Red, white and blue are just patriotic colors and if you were a real patriot you would know that”.

I love Uber purely for the fact that it’s killing the taxi industry. I could write a 100 page book of all the shitty cab experiences I’ve had.

I remember a cab ride from Manhattan to LGA that included driving over 70 mph on city streets.

And that you get an upfront price and you know you can pay with a credit card

Indeed, the ‘everyone a contractor’ economy will only work when we have enough fundamental rights (particularly healthcare) to make such low paying/erratic work compatible with a decent standard of living. Otherwise it’s hello third world.

“a sector Kalanick once famously and snidely referred to as the Big Taxi Cartel”

“He tells it like it is, but he doesn’t mean what he says.”

I know a guy who was a gay vegan who voted for Trump because “I’m tired of career politicians” who is now shocked that he is rolling back GLBTQ and animal rights. He said “He doesn’t believe what he says, he used to be a Democrat, he just says stuff to rile up the base, once he’s in he’ll be even more liberal than…

It’s not stupidity, it’s selfishness. Letting these people claim stupidity is, in a way, letting them off the hook. She knew what Trump was, she just didn’t care when stacked against her rich person interests. Now a response is expected of her when he reveals just what a shit he is and she’s given the bare minimum to,…

Ooh, can they include the impacts of back-alley abortions, women and children who are forced to live in poverty because they came pregnant in unstable situations, statistical trends and scientific analysis, and the full story?

Ted Cruz also predicted a Ted Cruz presidency, so let’s not get too worked up just yet.

Kellyanne Conway is like most of the conservative women who mock feminism because they don’t understand it. She doesn’t have what it takes to be a leader, to advance the cause of women, or to do anything that is actually helpful. She criticizes feminism without any sense of irony because she believes that she is so…

It’s amazing to see what’s happening with these town halls but they’re wasting their time with Cotton. Even if he suddenly grew a conscience, he could never buck the Trumpettes because they fight dirty and they have all the dirt on Queen Cotton’s personal life.

Freedom of Speech doesn’t protect you from another US Citizen saying “I don’t like the thing you are saying.” It protects you from the government locking you in jail cause you said that thing. The guy who tackled the flag waving racist went to jail and paid a fine. There was no government action against the flag…

I understand what you are saying, but I’d imagine that to a black person, a white guy waving the Confederate flag is a message of “I wish that you black people were once again property of white people.”

Wonder how many confederate flag wavers are telling Hillary supporters “you lost, get over it”?

Ben Franklin and many of his cohorts and contemporaries were the Rockefellers of their day.

You have to be white for that to work.

They’re called guns people.
