On the other hand, a really rich guy with an axe to grind could file a libel lawsuit that costs a media company a lot of money and makes their lives difficult. Not that I have any examples in mind.

Yeah.

All of the things you just listed are what progressives look at Democrats and see as Populism on the Cheap.

Populism.

Whether non-voter or progressive voters, the Democrats like to paint those people as KILLING THE MINORITIES with their apathy (or a belief that they should, I dunno, vote for who they want to be elected, rather than a politically expedient compromise).

This is great, Nick. As someone who is an older millenial who has always voted, I am surrounded in my social circles by any number of millenials who do not vote, many of whom have never voted. I don’t agree with that choice of theirs, and I think it’s wrong, but no amount of cudgeling, insulting, and screaming by our…

“We investigated him and found no signs of intelligence anywhere."

Melania and I were treated very nicely yesterday in Pittsburgh. The Office of the President was shown great respect on a very sad & solemn day. We were treated so warmly. Small protest was not seen by us, staged far away. The Fake News stories were just the opposite-Disgraceful!

Eh, I’m not really going to be mad at Pelosi for saying what she said, and while I suppose I would be mad if I saw her actually attempting to compromise, again, with the Republicans, I will hold my fire until that moment.

Halloween is one of the nights I consider amateur hour at the bar. Listen, me and all the other drunks want to quietly drink beer in peace. I hate nights where people feel they HAVE to over indulge and over compensate to have a good time.

Bars are for sitting quietly until you have a thought that you need to express…

Yep, and I am an old.  That anyone would perceive the author as a “bigot” is ludicrous.

Oh, fuck off you self-righteous twat. If I wanted your dipshit opinion I’d...well, just look everywhere. 

On one hand, this comment is extraordinarily stupid. The post calls out a multitude of reasons why Joe Biden should fade away that have nothing to do with age.

you can’t start putting the responsibility of individuals on anybody but the individual who carried out the crime.

And I’m sure Sarah and friends will fall all over themselves absolving the mullahs and Ayatollahs and whatnot of any and all responsibility for any acts of violence their followers might commit.

I mean, fuck if you want to get in the weeds with me, the entire concept of bearing arms during the time the constitution was written was in relation to military participation.

To “bear arms” has a strictly military meaning at the time and our famed “orignalist” Fuck face Scalia disregards that in his opinions.

The 2nd…

I am now trying to get into the habit of referring to Republicans as Republican White Nationalists. They should not be called anything else until they actively disavow white nationalism - which would mean a total redesign of their belief system, strategies, platform, everything. They’d be unrecognizable.

Let’s rewind the clock to about 1980 or so. Reagan picks up the baton of an anti-government platform from Barry Goldwater, after Goldwater’s acolytes effectively assumed control of the GOP. What followed was a systematic expungement of anyone and everyone that didn’t toe the party line, ultimately leading to the…

It’s inexcusable and heartbreaking. I am so sorry. I am an atheist/agnostic. I was raised Catholic but left the Church at 15 and never looked back. I am horrified and heartbroken at the state of this country. I decided today that I will call my city’s main synagogue (it’s a small city!) and volunteer for whatever they…

Hey Mr. “President” — Thanks for your cynical use of a murderous assault on my people as an ad for your hate-breathing friends in the gun industry.
