Hey I’d totally vote for a woman, unless there’s any form of man on the ballot paper as well.

Warren is the best candidate this time around, bar none. She’s the smartest, most logical and frankly has the most fleshed out ideas. Unfortunately smart women scare people so that’s why we have two septogenarians leading the way. One loopy and the other with a bum ticker.

Some of us brown men who support Bernie don’t like posting selfies with hashtags.  If you want to see my portrait, it’s in the attic.

I’m deeply, deeply worried about Bernie’s unexplored baggage but this isn’t it-- now if he’s the nominee and his rape fantasy essay or his Honeymoon in Moscow or his comparison of American actions in Vietnam to Nazi Germany or any number other hits start to play, yeah we’re fucked. 

He himself could’ve qualified for “hot boy” status, arguably, except for that whole “supporting George Wallace and continuing cluelessness about the part racism plays in class problems” thing

It’s also a fantastic way to disenfranchise non white voters. I still can’t believe I have to wait until April to vote. It’s ridiculous that my choices will essentially be chosen for me by two of the whitest states that have very little effect nationally that I have zero reason to visit or live in. It’s as foreign to

In addition to all of this, the process is awful for anxiety too, and I’d hazard that sheer loathing for this much interaction with one’s fellow Iowans is a big part of the turnout issue.

From what I’ve heard, Washington has done away with their caucus this year, but I did it in 2016 for the first time and it was wild. Unlike any political experience I’ve ever had, not in a good way.

Caucuses are terrible because, like the Internet, the loudest people get way too much attention.

While Sen. Warren is stuck in DC attending the foregone-conclusion impeachment trial this woman should be drafted as a campaign surrogate.

It’s what we have come to expect from people who support the administration that came up with “alternative facts”. Any actual facts are dismissed as “fake news”. These people are completely detached from reality.

Totally. Unless of course, It’s a blowjob?

I believe my having all the gold in the world is in the public interest; so you can’t prosecute me for stealing it.

Living in a red state, nothing aggravates me more than legislstors wasting tax dollars on partisan bills designed to advance their agendas. We have wasted millions in Indiana defending TRAP laws that were struck down by the courts. When your job is making laws, it is fiscally irresponsible to not insure the law is

We should all follow the Chief Justice’s lead and refuse to acknowledge Rand Paul exists

During a traffic jam.

So I had to look this guy up (“author” is thrown around a lot). He is a health insurance lobbyist who writes for The Federalist, Ben Domenech’s* online right-wing rag.

What has this dude been smoking and is it legal where I live?  I couldn’t afford COBRA when I got laid off and thank fucking GOD for the ACA because it meant I didn’t have to panic when I broke my hand or have to choose between going to the gynecologist about a worrisome symptom or eating anything more substantial

My son works 50+ hours a week in a salaried position. His employer does not offer health insurance coverage because it’s cheaper for them to just pay the penalties.
