This is the Alpha and Omega of comments.

Soapdish is a great, fun movie with a killer cast (Sally Field, Kevin Kline, Whoopi Goldberg, Robery Downey Jr, Carrie Fisher, Elizabeth Shue, Garry Marshall). It always makes me smile to hear of it, even in the context of the vainglorious numbskull Donald Trumpf.

Perhaps Trump suffers from a case of Kopfgeschlagen — a

Yeah, I could live with 45-50%. That’s still quite bad, but “acceptable” if you rebound (which he does), have some offense (ditto), and play good, hard defense (well.....usually). This 20% bullcrap should be DEFCON 1.

Start shooting the freakin’ ball underhand. It would be like a drunk admitting, finally, he has a

- Thanks for admitting you, essentially, see Dems as just like the Republicans. That was my point. I think they are significantly better and have done a lot of real things for millions of lower-income folks; you don’t see them as doing any meaningful good.

1. Well, it’s not a very funny comedy bit then, in this context, to me as it doesn’t have much basis in truth as far as Dems and Repubs. I think, as I’ve demonstrated, that their is a *huge* difference between how both parties treat the poor; they are not “generally” the same. Despite your protestations that you think

I can read. Here’s what you said:
- You linked to a bit in which Labour and Conservatives both, equally, don’t give a shit about the poor. You said it “applies equally well here” that “both the main parties believe the poor should be tied up in a bin bag and thrown in a canal.”
- then, as explanation for someone showing

- Oh FFS. The ACA is a lot of things (which is why it is so complex) — it’s a sop to insurers, to corporations, to drug companies, to middle/upper class folks who like the way the system currently is (an often overlooked fact) *AND* to lower income people. The latter are, along with people who are self-employed, by

Sigh...still focused on 2010, “her job at SoS.”

I’m going to continue to focus on the now, and what people are going to do in 2017 and most importantly, 2018 for the elections.

Have a nice day.

I’m not sure you understand how politics work, as politicians (literally all of them) take time—sometimes years—to develop positions, so I don’t know what to tell you. There are no qualifiers. We are in 2017.
- If Clinton was elected, there’d be no Keystone XL; since Trump was, there will be.

Simple as that.

WTH? What year is it? 2010? Early 2015? She took no firm position on Keystone until the end of year 2015, when she announced she was against it; and then she stayed with that position.

You folks are weird — through activism and rallies, you have a big part in getting a politician to take a position that is on your

Hey, whatever helps you sleep at night. She was at least “neutral” about it (while Trump was for DAPL) and could have responded to pressure in office, which has been known to work; plus, she came out against Keystone XL (which also will get built now under Trump).

In the reality that is the Trump presidency, they just

Noooooooo!!

I love FoxSports Live. It is one of my favorite shows. I DVR it and watch every day. The only part I typically skipped were the every-third-day interviews with UFC fighters (nice enough people, but usually not that interesting).

They were obviously huge Letterman fans, and I loved that outlook paired with

“cheered Obama for delaying it, but honestly all he did was shift the problem to Trump so he’d bear the bulk of the blame.”

Hmmm....that’s one way of looking at it. Another is that the project still would be delayed if Hillary Clinton was in office. But instead, the Green Party types decided that there was no real

So you like it better than Nevermind then. Huh.

Yeah, not to get off topic, but Cabrera (who I like, overall) is darn lucky his drinking & fight with his spouse happened in the era (i.e, before the last 3-4 years, certainly everything post Ray Rice) before league’s seriously started cracking down on such things. Illitch’s support of Cabrera certainly seems to have

This is certainly true. His moving Little Ceasar/Olympia Entertainment’s HQ to the Fox Theatre & renovating that old, huge ornate theater provided a positive anchor downtown (or near downtown, anyway) when the business district literally looked like a post-apocalyptic wasteland in the late 1980s-late 2000s. He also

They’re both lying and acting like entitled goobers. That’s my point. Oakley went to a section he wasn’t supposed to be at — security tends to stare at you when that happens. Oakley doesn’t own the building - if Dolan wants to enact petty, small-minded rules, that’s more evidence he’s a chump, but that’s his right.

Well, I don’t know about “control” of the narrative, but all this confirms that I’m neither on team Oakley or team Dolan — they’re both acting like assholes.

Dolan is a too-typical kind of incompetent: following the well-trod path of the entitled, bumbling, petty, vindictive son of a successful founder (Charles Dolan)

Well, to each their own — SI’s webpage has annoying videos that start up upon contact and keep playing & following me almost no matter what I do — and unlike ESPN, they often seem to have little to do with the story at hand (e.g., an SI Now interview with Aaron Rodgers from a week ago, when the story I’ve clicked on

“ESPN has the most godawful interface ever.”

Can I introduce you to SI.com?
