He’s got a new pic today too.  Threw me off a bit, unless there’s some baraka cosplay going on, which, gross.

He’s recently been salivating all over Mitch McConnell’s leadership (and from a “party priorities over everything, including dignity, adherence to the law, and basic logical consistency” standpoint, I suppose ol’ Yertle’s got something going for him—maybe), but being from KY, I can attest that there’s absolutely…

Bernie Sanders is like the dude who draws a house and says, “It should look like that.”

Yeah - I can tell that the blue-collar folks might hold it against her because she’s a smart person. But hopefully her blue collar beginnings will outweigh that - cause frankly, she got to where she is because she’s smart and she works hard. She’s also not afraid to say that she was given an opportunity because of her…

Yes, absolutely this. She’s an excellent speaker, even better than Bernie at calling out the puffery during committee hearings or whatever, but being a Midwesterner can really call it out in plain language free of some of the olde-timey labor-front cliches he can fall into

Do they consider indoor plumbing an insult to everyone who grew up with an outhouse?

About the only claim I’ve ever heard that carries even the tiniest bit of weight against debt forgiveness is, “And for those of us who paid it off? Are we getting something back?”

Great point! Imagine if the NFL had let the Bills get sold to that dumb guy a few years ago.

What’s the name for someone who displays Dunning–Kruger effect like tendencies within their own field of expertise? Is it the Grunfeld-Gruden effect?

Yep, very political. When I heard this story this morning on my local (WCBS radio NYC) newscast (from the national CBS news) they used Londonderry, which kind of startled me. I’ve spent a ton of time in Ireland (visits as a child; went to HS there; visits again as an adult) and almost my entire extended family lives…

and then he got a job in Edmonton and somehow got worst

Maybe this is exactly the fluid that was then used to cleanse all of Sylvia’s otherwise racist bones.

“While this is a bittersweet day, my faith remains strong. After the fight of my life with leukemia, I count every day as a blessing. I am grateful that God granted me more days on this earth to continue my calling as a coach. I have always believed that we are blessed so we can bless others. My goal has been to plant…

Chiarelli needed to keep that 4th line strong.  Gotta keep trading away that good talent
