It’s for people that refer them as “the jews”

My 86-year old Jewish mother would beat me with her cane if she saw “Latke Starter” in my kitchen.

I don’t understand why women have to have reasons, or worse, GIVE reasons for why they wear things.

I hate to break it to you, but women get catcalled regardless of their attire. I’ve been catcalled while wearing a formless sweatsuit that made me look like Grimace. Men catcall because it’s a gross power move, not because the woman is dressed immodestly.

It’s tribalism, really. That and people are repulsed by any introspection. The NFL protests are the best example of this. It’s much easier to dismiss these protests as disrespect of tangible objects like the flag or the caskets of brave veterans rather than systemic, institutional rot that disenfranchises people of…

You can easily be a conservative and not be Republican. I don’t think that party is actually conservative anymore so much as radical right-wing. You seem reasonable and thoughtful, and we need people like you voting and advocating on issues.

I’d read about this yesterday, and now after finally hearing the audio, I’m genuinely surprised he didn’t end up on the floor by the end of it. He sounded like he was beginning to have a stroke, especially as one side of his face was clearly not as in control of the jaw muscles as the other.

As of Sept, the US tourism industry has reported a loss of $1.7 billion due to “Trump Slump” - though there is not enough evidence to directly correlate the two yet.

They’re richer and Trump has business ties to them.

How many times have we asked that question since early 2016?

Conservatives would smash all their computers and smartphones to teach us libs a lesson.

I think “Hey, the president of the United States in retweeting videos purposefully intended to foment hate of Muslims, didn’t bother to check the background of the group he was using his major platform to amplify” isn’t much of a defense. Kind of like if I’m driving like a crazy person and my passenger says “Wow,…

That might serve as some sort of defense if he was just your crazy racist uncle down the street and not, oh, say, the President of the United States.

It’s appropriate that Conway is handling the response the opioid crisis considering she always looks like she just shot up a syringe full of skag

After a catastrophic interview in which she referred to Democratic Rep. John Conyers, who is facing sexual harassment allegations, as an “icon,” leader Nancy Pelosi has changed tack and called for an investigation by the House Ethics Committee. Although several Dems have called for his resignation, Conyers, the…

Dear Ellie:

Really, any powerful religious entity that punishes doubt and questioning can have sexual abuse in its ranks. The RCC might have a better-organized network than most, but it’s also an issue among hardline Islamic communities, Jehovah’s Witnesses, WELS Lutherans, some Orthodox Jewish enclaves, Buddhist monasteries,…

We are afraid we can’t compete with social media and other people’s sons/Peer pressure. We do try.

<sigh> I’ll bite, even though I shouldn’t. What exactly do you fear about the “d” word? Sincere question; everything I’ve seen in the past year makes me fear white men the most. See: Las Vegas, Plano, Orlando, Sutherland Springs ... seriously, 2017 has been the year of the white American mass-murdering gun nut.

Most of them just want a place where white people don’t have to succumb to diversity.
