We are very conservative except for where the people are.

I like how Albert literally quotes an argument just like this from an actual commenter on another article and you refer to this as a “strawman argument.”

Fucking hell, man, the man’s brain being mush is an important fucking issue. It’s not “free ammo” for Trump. It’s incredibly germane to the question of whether he should be the nominee and/or the president. It’s a much bigger difference between him and the candidates with working brains than their healthcare proposals…

The idea that shit-talking a candidate during a primary harms them in the general was probably never very true, and most assuredly isn’t true at all now. The overwhelming majority of people in this country know who they will vote for next November based solely on the letter by their name. Modern American elections are…

There’s a nice harmony between the content of this comment and the speed with which you posted it, in that they both demonstrate incontrovertibly that you couldn’t be bothered to actually read the article.

Okay, my misunderstanding and apologies in that case. We are completely in agreement then and, once more, my mistake on getting your argument wrong. Although I have to admit it is also a relieve as I kept trying to figure out how your argument worked before this correction.

Maybe something happened that makes Bob Kraft think he can just stonewall any news if sexual misconduct in his organization and eventually it'll go away? Can't imagine what, though.

His contract has nothing to do with the legal judgment. Until that’s been rendered, how is it not premature for the league to punish him at all? And based on your scenario, do you think this investigation should be over by week 5, week 8? I don’t know enough about the performance triggers in his deal, but what you’re…

Maybe the league should base its discipline on the legal judgment once it’s rendered.

As much as I still struggle with this, I do ultimately think this was the right decision. Although I constantly worry about how my own fandom is affecting my viewpoint, but then I would also be completely glad if the Patriots weren’t a part of the Brown circus and just kept Thomas around. And that’s even before how it…

Then you must certainly be in awe of the Chiefs. 

20 concussions? I expected that number to be much higher, like, almost 50 higher, like, one short of 50 higher.

Mussolini didn’t invent the term. :) He stole the symbol and corrupted its ideal. If I recall my history correctly, Fascism was forged from the Roman Fascia - or bundle of sticks wrapped around a small axe-like weapon, the symbol of the Roman Judiciary. There was the Roman Senate, which created the laws, the Consul…

The Toxicity of ProgressivismDavid Boddiger

So long as there is one person with billions of dollars (and the wealth represented by that) it should be a crime when a person who holds several jobs cannot feed themselves or their family with the efforts of their labor.   Universal Healthcare, Universal Education, and Universal Basic Income are necessities in the…

“What’s wrong with tracking teenage girls?” asked Roy Moore.

Our shenanigans are cheeky and fun, their shenanigans are cruel and tragic. 

The racist bits are beyond shitty. And the DV jokes are lame. But let’s not throw too many stones from our glass house on the latter issue.

Seriously, tho. Record players. What a fucking hipster. 

There are a lot of ways to attack Joe Biden that aren’t “He’s a capitalist stooge who condemned hundreds of thousands to homelessness or debt peonage!”
