That’s fair enough. I just find some religious absurdities like that hilarious. It’s like Mormons and magical underwear.

Being a sore loser and not conceding when he loses, shit talking the organizations when he doesn’t get their endorsements, stealing campaign data, whining about the establishment when he almost exclusively gets positive press and now constantly changing the conditions after agreeing to them - it’s Bernie’s world…

To be fair, Chop Suey is a very well-known and very-popular venue in the city for independent music. Not to say that it’s name isn’t somewhat problematic, but I think it’s ok for an Asian woman to be offended by someone categorizing her as a sidekick and to consider that a very distinct issue from the name of a club.…

Yes, the celebrity is doing it for “charity,” but should the fact that she’s got bank and a built-in audience (and can…

It would be nice if the Daily Beast had 1. Double checked that they had the right person before printing his picture and HOME ADDRESS; 2. Issued an actual correction to the story and not just rolling updates and a twitter apology; 3. Acknowledged that Wonkette noticed their error and tried to get them to change it for…
