A moderate Republican’s perspective:

Bernie essentially tied in Iowa, and outright won New Hampshire. The obvious structural points to be made are both States are lily white, not all that populated, and not reflective in the slightest of the demographics of the contests coming up.

Tactically, as a Republican, I should…

Perspective from a moderate conservative:

Rubio’s became a laughingstock. This “robot” meme is not going to go away, and it’s going to sink him. Not necessarily because of his debate performance, but because he will prove absolutely incapable of demonstrating the critique wasn’t justified.

Trump is at the moment immune…

The Bernie bro attacks on Paul Krugman were fact-based?

I sure hope you are getting paid to regurgitate that list, which I’ve seen in more than one place.

Re: Kristin/Dax, I’m going to vote “really cute.”

I don’t know why progressives aren’t wildly cheering Trump on. He’s pretty much the only GOP candidate absolutely guaranteed to be thumped by Hillary. That is, if you all don’t fall victim to your own siren song...

I’m starting to think Trump is a performance artist, waking up everyday asking himself, “Now what is the dumbest shit I can say today and continue to get away with it? “

Since he almost certainly doesn’t actually give a shit about the evangelical stance on anything related to homosexuality, this is probably true.

He’s saying what he thinks he needs to say at this stage to move forward towards election. He’s not one of the kool aid true believers on the issue, like Cruz.

There is actually, unfortunately, more than a little truth in what you say. And if the GOP could somehow shift the terms “social conservative” and “traditional values” away from the dog whistle for (white) evangelical Christian and Christianity they currently respectively actually mean, the Democratic party would…

I wouldn't put anything past the 4th quarter DGAF Obama. At this point, he's genuinely got the GOP rattled.

It’s absolutely amazing in, say, Germany, how quickly women being topless at a local swimming pool became a non-issue even for a bunch of otherwise horny 18-year-old American soldiers because of how matter-of-factly and un-sexually everyone else was treating the state of things; much less for all the children running…

I’m a little confused at the “bogus data” assertion. The source is shootingtracker.com:

I just posted my thoughts in FB post, and it is point for point interchangeable with your comment.

Here’s the police chief’s response:

“Do you ever feel like fellow Republicans like you are a dying breed?”

A lot of us conservatives are, in fact, mostly focused on smaller, more efficient government on every level, genuine transparency, anti-corruption, national security, the mechanics of capitalism as the true social engine of change, and the like, with the maximum amount of choice in life reserved for the individual.

If *I* actually KNEW them, i.e., the people actually doing the reorg and layoffs and WORKED with them on a daily basis, (this is work, so friendship is incidental) I *might* be at this point— just **might**— be wondering why I’m hearing about it first from the NY Times.

Gawker has demonstrated over the years more than…

I personally am “sepiasexual.”

And I do mean that I am sexually attracted to the number 1(a) Merriam-Webster meaning of the word ‘sepia’: “a brown melanin-containing pigment from the ink of cuttlefishes.” (http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/sep…)

Complete bullshiterry to what she said, but to be ARRESTED over it?

We Americans need to appreciate just how special our intepretation of freedom of speech actually is.

When I was in Desert Storm, after the ground phase and we were in the Khobar Towers getting ready to go home, there was an “information center” with…

I smile at the way you mispelled “Asian” not just once, but twice in different ways.

And, sorry, but 1st Amendment case law makes it pretty clear what are and aren’t the appropriate limitations on the applicability of it. Professor Click was completely wrong on the law, no matter her justifications. Sorry, but unless…
