Its probably one of his hunting buddies. 

I don’t think Kamala Harris is the choice for that. Her... well... record as a public servant is rather pro-police and anti justice. Booker would work - but what we have to ask, is a centrist as VP going to do anything positive? We don’t see what the VP does, they are very behind the scenes. Edit - I think that we…

At this point I’d rather Cory Booker over Harris. Harris’ public service history isn’t good if we want to correct the systemic problems with the police that exist and eliminate the for-profit prison systems. She at least has shown she will always side with law enforcement in most decisions. And I’m not sure if she…

I just ran across a Quartz article about Cory Booker describing his actions as a person. And lets just say I’m impressed if this is the character of the man.

The record is the most important part.  It matters what people do, not just what they are but who they are. 

I guess yesterday was the real debate and the only argument left to settle is whether Warren is Sanders’ VP, or Sanders is Warren’s VP. 

According to CoreCivic’s financial statements, the company made $171 million from the Dilley detention center in the past year.

That could lead to a lot of alcohol poisoning.  I’d recommend water, but you’d probably end up drinking so much you’d screw your electrolyte balance and be in roughly the same condition. 

You have two choices in life when you are the victim of external circumstances: To forgive and let go of anger, hate, and rage... or to let it boil inside.

Love. As much of it as possible. And never treat your child like someone who doesn’t know what they have experienced in life. You know this. If you ask them, they’ll tell you.

Your son is and will be capable of amazing things as you already know. Treat him very well and show him what the world is without inflicting it upon him without explanation. Make sure he gets to understand the world around him in an environment of love. Let him participate in the things around the house he wants to…

True enough. But this is the first time we’ve had Satan’s fifteenth son’s uncle’s brother’s second cousin’s daughter-in-law’s, second aunt’s milk man’s son’s former live-in college roommate’s bad date/special project/fixer-upper opportunity as President of the United States. So consider him the warm up for the false…

This is how I see the 2020 race:

I have a general principle of never courting the votes of asshats. Nobody on that side of the political line is going to go for “Republican Lite” no matter WHAT they say. Especially at this point. Everyone who will abandon the asshat in chief has already done so. They might vote for a blue-dog/jacksonian democrat for…

This feels like a Board level asshat riding around a room in circles on a lawyer saying: “I don’t want anyone to clearly know what happened and lets say it so we don’t get sued. Baffle them with Bullshit(tm) and hide the truth in the details!” which then came down to PR.

Warren and Bernie.  I want them both.

That is a lovely way of putting it. I wish I could put it like that.

Ah, a slightly different twist, with a touch of “oh, let me change the narrative here and make it seem as though I interpret this as you comparing monsters to innocent victims!” But you’re now reaching and falling short of your grasp. The OP wasn’t comparing colonizers to refugees. The OP was comparing acts of 400…

And even with our modern understanding some people will never really understand. We’re not “useful” to those kind of people - who measure worth in specific ways. I grew up in a time where we were drugged and medicated and sedated and altered and beat and forced until we were in a socially acceptable shape. Its okay.…

And where the disconnect is that *we* are modern people. And what is being done to people seeking asylum here is wrong. We know it was wrong when similar things were done 400 years ago... and we know it is wrong what is being done to this day. Law or not. Slavery is wrong. Murder is wrong. But so is refusing to help…
